>>2400782 Marx Regarding "Treats">A house may be large or small; as long as the neighboring houses are likewise small, it satisfies all social requirement for a residence. But let there arise next to the little house a palace, and the little house shrinks to a hut. The little house now makes it clear that its inmate has no social position at all to maintain, or but a very insignificant one; and however high it may shoot up in the course of civilization, if the neighboring palace rises in equal or even in greater measure, the occupant of the relatively little house will always find himself more uncomfortable, more dissatisfied, more cramped within his four walls.
>An appreciable rise in wages presupposes a rapid growth of productive capital. Rapid growth of productive capital calls forth just as rapid a growth of wealth, of luxury, of social needs and social pleasures. Therefore, although the pleasures of the labourer have increased, the social gratification which they afford has fallen in comparison with the increased pleasures of the capitalist, which are inaccessible to the worker, in comparison with the stage of development of society in general. Our wants and pleasures have their origin in society; we therefore measure them in relation to society; we do not measure them in relation to the objects which serve for their gratification. Since they are of a social nature, they are of a relative nature.https://www.marxists.org/archive/marx/works/1847/wage-labour/ch06.htm >>2402526>>2402542Solar power is a form of imperialism. Itâs robbing resources from the fourth world (outer space) for making treats (AC, energy) in the first world.

>>2402590Civilization MUST be destroyed. Itâs time to stop waiting for some critical mass of âhumansâ to start caring about the Earth. You have to destroy civilization RIGHT NOW.

But you arenât gonna do anything, because the VAST majority of humanity are willing planet killers that would gladly chop down the amazon so theyâd have lumber for their homes.
>>2402630I agree and whats good about america is that theres no real patriotism left in this country. Even conservatives despite praising their love would often shittalk the countrys current state.
America is in a unique state for internationalist socialism

I mean fucking Fidelâs dad had ties with a he Spanish Falange, and he was chatting it up with some Falangists for world youth day. Thereâs been a historical irony in fascists literally practicing internationalism while decrying it; the head of the Iron Guard congratulated á´uá´lossnW on coming to power in Italy and remarked it was a joyous occasion for him. Mosley had cadres visit Berlin and Rome and had pictures of Hitler and á´uá´lossnW in his office.
I think âsocialism goes nationalâ isnât because Stalin created the idea out of thin air and all socialists wanted to emulate him, thatâd be unironic idealism. Itâs because these nations had to deal with the realities of power.
If Fidel regarded Cuba as some irredeemable settler colony that committed horrible crimes against the indigenous that itâd have to suffer to make up for, then thereâd be no Cuban revolution. No one is gonna fight for the asshole saying âthings are awful and weâre an evil nationâ because that would make it seem like heâs saying they deserve to be some backwater dictatorship.
Shit, during and after Stalin there was a quiet understanding that the Comintern was kind of just âdo whatever is best for Russia.â The CPUSA and surely other Communist parties lost legitimacy in part because they were so âinternationalistâ that theyâd change lines and contradict themselves just to stay in line with the Kremlin.
Honestly I think instead of chasing internationalism, the Left should focus on building itself domestically. The ability to practice decent internationalism can come after.
>>2402680well, I assumed you did, because no normal brain would come to the conclusion that you can overthrow a system by radio-poisoning some porkies.
>mr ceoTakes one to know one.
>>2402712They're abandoning democratic proselytizing since democracy can no longer be relied on to provide the desired results. Just recently in Romania they overturned results favorable to an anti-nato candidate purely on the basis that they assumed Russia was making tiktok videos for him and in Moldova the pro EU candidate won after just enough expat ballots were shipped in to give her an edge.
As conditions around the world worsen, working people are turning to the ballot box and supporting candidates that promise to help them in some way, and usually this means undoing or opposing policies that the bourgeoisie want or require. This is fueling an anti democratic current among the bourgeois and this is reflected in their governmental policies.
smartphone dystopia is here
Let me give you a taste of what the near future will look like. This has already happened on cattle events, for example LA Clippers arena, where they instituted total surveillance, where you're face id'd, scanned, tagged and app'd to the point where you can just walk around, take anything you like, no worries, they will immediately charge your phone with its price. Furthermore, they will record everything you say and measure the volume of your screaming so that you become eligible for various prizes. This will move into big big world, and it will be optional for a short period, then you will be severely incovenienced if you try to avoid it, and when you're left in that 0.1 percent of population that refused to do it it will be made mandatory.

>>2402712At this point, any word that spills from the living sewer eco-system that is the republican party should be treated with contempt, disgust, and with as much appeal as a fart in a space suit.
Republicans have proven that they will say whatever to whoever to gain votes and clout, meanwhile they answer to Cheeto á´uá´lossnW, a man who's committing the worst cover up of all cover ups. Are you so willing to ride the Multi-Polarista-Express because a Republican, who's leading figure is a Zionist, Best Buds with Epstein, and actively crushing both labour and civil rights says something vaguely "anti-hegemony"?
You should give less of a shit of what Republicans are saying and look what republicans are doing.
Besides, we already live in a Multipolar world with China more or less leading the economic charge.
>>2402757Honestly, who

WASHINGTON, D.C. â Today, July 23, 2025, U.S. Representatives Josh Gottheimer (NJ-5) and Don Bacon (NE-2), and Anti-Defamation League (ADL) CEO and National Director Jonathan Greenblatt held a press conference to announce bipartisan legislation â the Stopping Terrorists Online Presence and Holding Accountable Tech Entities (STOP HATE) Act â to combat terrorists and disinformation on social media.
âWeâve seen an explosion of disinformation and antisemitic hate online in America and around the world â especially since the horrific October 7 terrorist attacksâŚAfter the shooting outside the Capital Jewish Museum, anti-Zionist extremists used social media to call for further violence, posting messages like âmay all Zionists burn.â Even AI platforms like Grok have posted deeply disturbing content, praising Adolf Hitler and Nazism,â said Congressman Josh Gottheimer (NJ-5). âThere is a massive disinformation campaign influencing us every day. Our legislation will be a new tool in our online arsenal to protect our nation against terrorists and foreign adversaries that continue to threaten us in new ways.
Gottheimer and Bacon are announcing the bipartisan STOP HATE Act to help stop terrorism and disinformation on social media and online. This legislation is supported by ADL.
The bipartisan STOP HATE Act will:
Require social media companies to release detailed reports of violations to their terms of service and how they are addressing content generated by Foreign Terrorist Organizations (FTOs) or Specially Designated Global Terrorists (SDGTs).
Require social media companies to explain the standard by which they would judge whether content generated or proliferated by terrorists would be deemed in a violation of the companyâs terms of service.
Every day social media companies do not comply, it will result in a $5 million fine.
Require the Director of National Intelligence (DNI) to report on the use of social media by terrorist organizations.

Not only will all platforms be monitored, all speech will be regulated :)
>>2402848Moving forward, your speech will be chosen for you.
It's for your own good.
>>2402684That just comes down to the âsocialistâ left being filled with cynical opportunists and idealists
> I mean fucking Fidelâs dad had ties with a he Spanish Falange, and he was chatting it up with some Falangists for world youth day. Thereâs been a historical irony in fascists literally practicing internationalism while decrying it; the head of the Iron Guard congratulated á´uá´lossnW on coming to power in Italy and remarked it was a joyous occasion for him. Mosley had cadres visit Berlin and Rome and had pictures of Hitler and á´uá´lossnW in his office. This is a difficult circle to square for an ML who holds to some grand mythology of a world historical struggle between âsocialismâ (state directed national development) and imperialism. If you accept these people were in fact nationalists achieving a bourgeois revolution and then operating to secure the progressive advancements associated with the bourgeois revolutions, all under the auspices of ânecessityâ set by the impossibility of socialism; that these people brush shoulders with fascists isnât surprising.
> I think âsocialism goes nationalâ isnât because Stalin created the idea out of thin air and all socialists wanted to emulate him, thatâd be unironic idealism. Itâs because these nations had to deal with the realities of power.Leftcoms donât believe some voluntarist nonsense like âoh Stalin was just personally a nationalist!â We donât think the USSR was âevilâ. We think it was not socialist. Nationalism became the realpolitik of the Soviet Union because necessity rendered socialism impossible once the international revolution was defeated; the leadership did not have an offer on the table that led to international revolution at least within its own ranks, so the route chosen was the one most likely to have been chosen, the path of least resistance in a certain peculiar sense (one would assume simply bowing to the West was easiest, but not so), declare that one has founded a âsocialist nationâ and then begin exploiting the proletariat to increase GDP errr develop the economy to
compete on the international market confront the West while besieged (ignoring that the state of siege is the general state of affairs for all nations under capitalism, to the extent that ultimately the fascists chose war with other imperialist rivals as quickly as they did the USSR, no, sooner in fact, than they did the USSR)
At this point it becomes worth asking, what is the actual value of the leftist obsession with the USSR and similar governments? Iâd say literally nothing and it allows revolutionary non-movement that nevertheless feels active, by, in the most reactionary way possible, deferring all actions to those of dead actors in the past.
> If Fidel regarded Cuba as some irredeemable settler colony that committed horrible crimes against the indigenous that itâd have to suffer to make up for, then thereâd be no Cuban revolution. No one is gonna fight for the asshole saying âthings are awful and weâre an evil nationâ because that would make it seem like heâs saying they deserve to be some backwater dictatorship.You donât need to be an essentialist regarding national identity and national original sin to be quite sickened at the shallow horizon of most socialists. The vast vast vast majority of âsocialistsâ are happiest of all with a scenario where capitalism exists essentially forever but all of its worst iniquities and irrationalities are ironed out, this includes all Marxist-Leninists. Most socialists offer much, but shattering the chains is not one of them.
> Shit, during and after Stalin there was a quiet understanding that the Comintern was kind of just âdo whatever is best for Russia.â The CPUSA and surely other Communist parties lost legitimacy in part because they were so âinternationalistâ that theyâd change lines and contradict themselves just to stay in line with the Kremlin.You are using one of the greatest examples of the grotesque failures of socialist nationalism to critique internationalism? Lmao. Yes, nothing more internationalist than Moscow convincing every communist party it influenced to effectively commit suicide on the question of revolution to benefit itself. At this point mfers need to read Marx or crack open Hitler and accept where their sympathies actually lie; maybe this is the brain disease you develop when you think you have something to prove to liberals and thus embrace ML to prove socialists do nationalism, GDP growth, and exploitation âbetterâ
Lmao this is one of the actual greatest disasters in socialist history; MLism created an even worse version (in some ways) of the Second International clowns

>>2402902If you'll note Vance is actually saying that the letters are fake. This is his ACTUAL contention. He calls them "fake news" and he finds their existence itself "absurd". He's presenting it in such a way that it seems like he's claiming something else, primarily because he outright, bodily lies in the first sentence about what he is even actually arguing.
>>2402954>try to pretend to be "Christian"Honestly not a bad idea. Turn the words and ideology of the enemy back on them.
Thank you egoistposter, I appreciate it.
>>2402851From a President? Gotta say Teddy's "Arena" speech is pretty good.
The excerpt itself is sourced from TR's speech "Citizenship in a Republic" which is itself kind of an intriguing speech as a whole, because he's describing the birth and growth of the U.S. in seemingly dialectical terms. Then kind of goes back to individualistic liberalism. I think his point on critics resonates.
>Today I shall speak to you on the subject of individual citizenship, the one subject of vital importance to you, my hearers, and to me and my countrymen, because you and we a great citizens of great democratic republics. A democratic republic such as oursâan effort to realize its full sense government by, of, and for the peopleârepresents the most gigantic of all possible social experiments, the one fraught with great responsibilities alike for good and evil. The success of republics like yours and like ours means the glory, and our failure of despair, of mankind; and for you and for us the question of the quality of the individual citizen is supreme. Under other forms of government, under the rule of one man or very few men, the quality of the leaders is all-important. If, under such governments, the quality of the rulers is high enough, then the nations for generations lead a brilliant career, and add substantially to the sum of world achievement, no matter how low the quality of average citizen; because the average citizen is an almost negligible quantity in working out the final results of that type of national greatness. But with you and us the case is different. With you here, and with us in my own home, in the long run, success or failure will be conditioned upon the way in which the average man, the average women, does his or her duty, first in the ordinary, every-day affairs of life, and next in those great occasional cries which call for heroic virtues. The average citizen must be a good citizen if our republics are to succeed. The stream will not permanently rise higher than the main source; and the main source of national power and national greatness is found in the average citizenship of the nation. Therefore it behooves us to do our best to see that the standard of the average citizen is kept high; and the average cannot be kept high unless the standard of the leaders is very much higher.
>It is well if a large proportion of the leaders in any republic, in any democracy, are, as a matter of course, drawn from the classes represented in this audience to-day; but only provided that those classes possess the gifts of sympathy with plain people and of devotion to great ideals. You and those like you have received special advantages; you have all of you had the opportunity for mental training; many of you have had leisure; most of you have had a chance for enjoyment of life far greater than comes to the majority of your fellows. To you and your kind much has been given, and from you much should be expected. Yet there are certain failings against which it is especially incumbent that both men of trained and cultivated intellect, and men of inherited wealth and position should especially guard themselves, because to these failings they are especially liable; and if yielded to, their-your- chances of useful service are at an end. Let the man of learning, the man of lettered leisure, beware of that queer and cheap temptation to pose to himself and to others as a cynic, as the man who has outgrown emotions and beliefs, the man to whom good and evil are as one. The poorest way to face life is to face it with a sneer. There are many men who feel a kind of twisted pride in cynicism; there are many who confine themselves to criticism of the way others do what they themselves dare not even attempt. There is no more unhealthy being, no man less worthy of respect, than he who either really holds, or feigns to hold, an attitude of sneering disbelief toward all that is great and lofty, whether in achievement or in that noble effort which, even if it fails, comes to second achievement. A cynical habit of thought and speech, a readiness to criticize work which the critic himself never tries to perform, an intellectual aloofness which will not accept contact with lifeâs realitiesâall these are marks, not as the possessor would fain to think, of superiority but of weakness. They mark the men unfit to bear their part painfully in the stern strife of living, who seek, in the affection of contempt for the achievement of others, to hide from others and from themselves in their own weakness. The role is easy: there is none easier, save only the role of the man who sneers alike at both criticism and performance. >>2402777Yep, looks like this is yet another Patriot Act 2.0. And it would be just as lame and ineffective as the original Patriot act was. They can't go through all of that date themselves and most of the people who check the data are incompetent.
I think an easy way to avoid getting target by this ban is to simply not use social media and start using thing like IRC chatrooms or private messengers again. Even creating your own websites so it would be harder for these governments to knock down speech.
It was a lot harder to police the internet back when it was a bunch of separate homepages. Now since people are only using the big five websites, it's a lot more concentrated, but the periphery web is still out there.

>>2402224 Comrades! From the mist-shrouded forests, valleys, and mountains of the Pacific Northwest, I bring you a message of solidarityâa call to action and a demand for unwavering commitment to our duty as the vanguard of the proletarian revolution, and ultimately, Total Proletarian Victory.
The seeds of awakening are sprouting across the Northwest, flourishing among the calloused hands of farmers and ranchersâa class crushed under the boot of capitalist exploitation and the avarice of the bourgeois parasites. Since the dawn of this nation, the laborer tilling the soil has embodied the dignity of collective toil and the resilience of the working class. When I recall the spirit of revolutionary defiance, I hear echoes of that immortal verse from Concord and Lexington:
>By the rude bridge that arched the flood
>Their flag to Aprilâs breeze unfurled,
>Here the embattled farmers stood
>And fired the shot heard round the world.
But comrades, that poem glorifies a fractured rebellion. Today, we demand a new anthem for our struggle:
>Out of the valleys, out of the fields, the working masses rise,
>Their banner red against the sky, defiance in their eyes.
>The farmer, the laborer, united hand in hand,
>Shall tear the chains of oppression from this stolen land!
Never forget: the capitalist elites tremble before the power of an awakened proletariat. To them, the tiller of the soil is a mysteryâa symbol of strength they can neither control nor corrupt. Cities breed exploitation! Cities drain the soul, while the soil, the valley, the farm, renew the spirit of those who sustain life itself. How the cowering bourgeois fears the resolve of the working farmer! What a contrast between their greed and our solidarity!
Deep within the heart of every laborer lies a dormant seedâthe seed of class consciousness, the seed of revolution, the seed of righteous fury. We must radicalize the rural masses! We must rally them to our cause, forging a united front for liberation.
The path is treacherous. The bourgeoisieâs propaganda spews from every screenâTV satellites infest the countryside like venomous weeds, poisoning minds with lies. Their media slithers into the humblest homes, peddling complacency. And in league with these exploiters stand the pulpit-pounding preachers, who preach submission while the banks seize your land.
Yet the grip of the old order is weakening. Churches lose their sway as farmers face ruin. When a man stands to lose generations of laborâhis farm, his livelihood, his very futureâstolen by loan sharks and capitalist cartels, empty sermons offer no solace. We draw inspiration from the revolts of the past!
Look to the Palouse! Sixty miles south of Spokane, where topsoil runs eighteen feet deep, families like Comrade Ray Smithâs face foreclosure. A man who calls himself a "Snake River farmer and damn proud of it!" His father worked this earth; his sonâs inheritance is stolen. When Smith traced his misery to its source, what did he cry? "CAPITALIST! Capitalist, capitalist!"
His neighbors echoed the call. And how did the state answer? With helicopters, SWAT teams, and armies of deputies. Now Smith spreads the truth across Idaho, Oregon, and Washington. He hands out Marx, not Protocols. He stands with us!
From Colorado to the Dakotas, rebellion ignites. In Fort Collins, farmers formed the Land and Labor Collective, distributing pamphlets that unmask exploitation. Their newspaper, The Ploughshare, faces bourgeois suppressionâbut the seeds of class war are sown!
Comrades, the rural masses are ripe for revolution! It falls to usâthe Partyâto seize this moment. We are the last hope of every worker, every family, every child. Through collective struggle, we break the chains of capitalist thought. In our communes, we reject "mine" for "ours." We embody the future!
Ten hearts, one beat.
One hundred hearts, one beat.
Ten thousand hearts, one beat.
We are born to fight, to sacrifice, to propel our class toward liberation. Onward, above the mire of greed and inequality!
The time is now. If you hesitate, if you withhold your full commitment to the Party, you betray not only your classâyou betray humanity itself.
Stand as one! Swear on the soil our ancestors nourished:
We will reclaim what the workers built, bled for, and were robbed of!
We will seize our future from the parasites!
Comrades, arise! Gaze upon the horizon and claim our destiny.
In solidarity, our cry thunders:
Defeat neverâVictory forever!

Realistically, given that this has been the most unseriously run place I've ever seen in over 20 years of being on the Internet, I expect them to do nothing but make a few more empty boards and for this place to inevitably go the way of 8chan when there's a false-flag attack, with posters of Alunya at the crime scene
conveniently found like the passports of the 9/11 hijackers.
>>2403396>funds anti trans, anti gay, pro capitalist organizations>What is Peter thiels endgame?This is only for the rich, not for the poors. The poors are only allowed to do what the rich tell them to do and live how their masters tell them to live. The real purpose of slave morality is to subjugate the slaves. They are expected to be good conservative serfs, living frugally, making no demands and working hard for their treasures in Heaven. Men are expected to be laborers and soldiers that lay their lives down for empire while the women are expected to bear children to continue this state of affairs. For the poors to assert that they have the right to change their gender or have an abortion is to demand ownership over themselves, which is inherently unacceptable.

>>2403628Look I get you USAnos are very icky about "bureaucracy" and "freedom". And your vision starts draining into communist grayscale when a cop asks to see your car insurance.
But come on. It's a government agency. Interoperability is a good thing, the problem is not the bureaucracy being too efficient, it's the fucking Gestapo that you created during the 9/11 security state free-for-all.
>>2403709Something I always wonder is how does society coddle these women to the point they think throwing violent destructive tantrums is acceptable behavior in adulthood. But like, looking back I don't recall any teachers or anyone in positions of authority ever scolding girls for being violent or abusive towards others. Usually they just laugh it off or don't take it seriously. Society only really treats men as a threat, so women are never taught how to regulate their emotions, and it manifests in adulthood as these deeply unstable individuals that just see themselves as a victim everywhere they go despite being the cause of 99% of their own problems.
Basically I wish I had a bpd gf to stab me. Pic unrelated.
>>2403709The worst part of having those sort of manipulative bitches is that just about the time the spell breaks, you *know* they will go for your throat.
But people who rely on manipulation and blackmail can have unpredictable reactions, because their tool for abuse can go from 100% to 0% reliable. And unlike violent abuser, which is relatively straightforward to measure because they tend to rely on escalating violence. The manipulator will have all sorts of contingencies planned to ruin your life , in case they can't get you to do what they want anymore.
>>2403738If a socialist government controls the current USA it should just bomb these guysâ land. Not even destroy any structure or anything, just blow a small crater in the ground in their back yard just to fuck with them.
God I hate propertyfags so much.
>>2403782I was raised by a nurse and she wasn't that insane
shrug.
I think it's a very demanding job especially in this society so I respect them. They go through a lot at work.
>>2403781No she has a discord full of groomers and will just take her pick of someone that is totally in love with her and will be her husband/caretaker. Many such cases.
My point here isn't to shit on women but what you consider conventional wisdom(normal people don't tolerate bad people) gets thrown out the window when you put sex in the equation. A man in her position very much would not receive any coddling but it's pretty normal to encounter women in their 50's that are just the perfect combination of complete narcissist + violent + unable to function without a male caretaker. This lady at my work is like that and talking to her is like dealing with a child.
>>2403778To simplify your post. We human beings are woefully unequipped to deal with mental illness, especially in such an already toxic society we live in. Say what you want about ancient times whether it be the patriarchy of Rome or Greece, or the serfdom of medieval times, whether it be in the west or in Asia. The majority of us, about 80 to 90 percent of every single human being on earth was toiling in some field with other folks whether family or extended family or other families and comrades in toil. Whether we were yeomen, slaves, or serfs we all just lived simple lives working the dirt from dawn to dusk. That sort of busy life was harsh but meaningful, you grandfather worked the fields, your dad worked the fields, you worked the fields and your children would also likely work the fields. That basically forced us to remain psychologically âinnocentâ in a way. Whenever you had slave rebellions they generally recreated what they saw within the limits of their time which is to say a kingdom or another slave republic.
Men and women and children all worked the land equally for the most part. Bourgeois decadence is something that the human race hasnât psychologically adapted to. We are still largely agricultural species, only a minority of humans lived in towns or cities compared to the larger majority living in the countryside. Do not underestimate how fast the industrial revolution was. We have not mentally adapted to this world. Evolution happens on a larger timescale. Bourgeois culture(letâs remember what bourgeois originally meant, city dweller, burghers was another term for city folks) is decadent and toxic and itâs not meant for human beings, for a majority in any case.
>>2403668>For the record, in some circles in the dating app world, men who use the app are called âconsumersâ whereas women are âthe productâ. That's crazy bro
>>2403676>I talked to a girl about this once, how dating apps just treat women as a product to be sold, and she seemed kinda proud of it, like it's a validation boost. Society is so fucked.Women are interesting like this. I was talking to this girl at a party who worked tables at this high-end men's club. (For very rich men, businessmen.) And she talked about getting started and seeing how other girls there carried themselves, and felt they had a certain kind of power, actually. Or a certain confidence. She then did a voice she'd use to talk to some of these guys (in more intimate settings) and she sounded like this singer. Like a cooing kind of babygirl tone. She did it well and I thought it was funny.
>>2403667>Newsmax is officially referring to Ghislaine Maxwell as "a victim"Trump's right-wing base doesn't care about the girls who got trafficked by Epstein and Maxwell, the role of pedophilia in these stories isn't something they care about in itself, it's a legitimization for their savior Donald Trump to wipe out their political enemies.
>>2403668Thatâs pretty fucked up honestly.
There should be just a state-owned matchmaking app that has algorithms based on successful relationships and body fat percentage.
>>2403814Consumers do not in themselves have value though. The merchant cares for
nothing but the consumer's money hence why scamming is among the oldest human activities. High quality products themselves, however, are always valuable.

>On Jan. 7 of this year, six weeks after UAW officials announced that a majority of BlueOval SK workers had signed union cards, the workers filed for a union election with the National Labor Relations Board. At the NLRB, which administers labor law, the median wait between petition and election under the Biden administration was 31 days. But it was not until June 26, nearly six months after workers had requested an election and five months after Donald Trump took office, that the board even ordered BlueOval SK to hold one. An election date has not yet been set.Â
>âA lot of my co-workers just want an election. Theyâre ready to vote,â Bill Wilmoth, a formation production operator and part of the volunteer organizing committee, told Capital & Main in June.Â
>The election delay began when BlueOval SK responded to workersâ election request by filing an NLRB complaint. The company argued that current workers represented too small a share of the eventual workforce at the plant to gain standing as a union.Â
>During that delay, BlueOval SK has worked to block the union. This winter, BlueOval SK paid LRI Consulting Services, a firm known for sending anti-union staff to trail retail workers at their jobs, $425 an hour to hold informational meetings with workers. BlueOval SKâs legal representation, Frost Brown Todd, has a website page devoted to âunion avoidance/campaignsâ offering âcampaigns that empower employees to vote ânoââ on a union. The company also spent $17,229 on ads targeting Kentucky audiences through Meta, the parent company of Instagram and Facebook, between April 6 and July 4. The ads include a video urging workers to âtap the brakesâ and âvote noâ on the union.Â
>BlueOval SK did not return requests for comment.
>Multiple workers who talked to Capital & Main say theyâve been driven to organize because of workplace injuries and threats to health and safety. Workers have filed multiple safety and health complaints, and reporters from The Louisville Courier Journal extensively documented workplace injuries, mold contamination, bat infestations and chemical exposure risks.Â
>Thatâs driven workers to demand a fair election, said Wilmoth, but the companyâs anti-union efforts have taken a toll. âTheyâre smart enough to figure out their environment and whatâs best for them,â he said of co-workers. But the companyâs opposition means âtheyâre very hesitant to have discussionsâ openly about unionization, he added. Workers say management has pulled employees aside for âconversationsâ and told them to attend meetings that some workers did not know were anti-union meetings until they got there, while new hires have reported experiencing anti-union rhetoric during training.
>The UAW has filed six unfair labor practice complaints with the NLRB, including as recently as July 2. The union alleges that BlueOval SK threatened, restrained and coerced workers through destroying union materials shown in nonwork areas; threatened closure of the facility; and fired workers for supporting the union. https://theconnector.substack.com/p/cryptocurrency-epstein-and-the-bullshit
>But hereâs the thing about what happens when your entire world is built on bullshit and bullshitting. When you get caught in a blatant contradiction, one so large that it canât be waved away, the whole edifice gets very shaky. And that, I think, is why Trumpâs current effort to cover up his relationship with convicted pedophile Jeffrey Epstein is so important. On the one hand, the Justice Department from Attorney General Pam Bondi on down has promised to get to the bottom of the Epstein case, release all the files, and go after anyone who has committed crimes against victims. Theyâve done so with bluster. But then theyâve also claimed the case was closed, also at the behest of the President, who has begged his followers to move on.
>So far, they arenât. Number go up, indeed!
>Many of Trumpâs minions owe their rise to fame and fortune on the relationship theyâve built with their online audiences, something theyâve cultivated in large degree by feeding and ratifying their belief in conspiracy theories. As the Wall Street Journal noted yesterday, âThe decision to not release the files and the harsh fallout among the public has roiled some of Trumpâs senior staff, who have staked their reputations on exposing the ties between Epstein and moneyed elites. [Kash] Patel, the FBI director, and his deputy, Dan Bongino, had been in favor of releasing more documents, people familiar with their efforts said. Bongino has told colleagues that his association with the administrationâs decision to keep the files private has eroded his credibility among the base of support that fueled his rise as a successful podcaster and media personality on the right, according to a senior administration official.â In other words, Bonginoâan online influencer who had no qualification to be deputy FBI director other than his slavish loyalty to Trumpâis now caught between what he believes he has to do to keep his audience and to maintain his position with Trump.
>According to a new Fox News poll, âOnly 13% think the government has been open and transparent about the Jeffrey Epstein case, while more than five times as many, 67%, disagree â including 60% of Republicans and 56% of MAGA supporters. One voter in five says they havenât been following the case.â That means 80% of the public is paying attention. Hence the Trump regimeâs sudden move to release files on Martin Luther King Jr. and to try shine attention on Barack Obamaâs investigation of Russian efforts to interfere in our elections. As Andrew Egger put it in the Bulwark, âThe worse the Epstein revelations, the wilder the distractions issued to try to get the MAGA faithful to look literally anywhere else.â
>The opposite of the bullshit asymmetry principle might be phrased thus: âThe amount of energy needed to sustain bullshit that is obvious to all is an order of magnitude bigger than that needed to produce it.â >>2403826"dozens of acres"
Yeah give him the gulag
>>2403822There used to be things like workers balls, hostels, a whole way of life that came with Communism. But then the USSR died and so a lot of funding went out the window. I donât think an app would be high on the list of priorities, and if we made it then youâd instantly have people claiming itâs some attempt by the feds to dox communists.
That aside, I think Communists in America are too incestuous, just contained to their little bubbles and doing nothing. I think whatâs needed is interacting with more people. Get liberal and conservative friends. Learn to associate with people who think differently. Thatâs what we need these days.
Shit, to some of the family from my right wing friends Iâm just âsome nice all American guyâ.
From yesterday.
https://www.msnbc.com/rachel-maddow-show/maddowblog/trump-struggles-facts-fed-chair-jerome-powell-corrects-real-time-rcna221052Trump struggles with facts as Fed Chair Jerome Powell corrects him in real time
>During brief remarks with reporters, the president, with Powell standing just inches away, declared that cost overruns on the project have reached âabout $3.1 billion.â The Fed chair could be seen immediately and rapidly shaking his head, making clear to those in attendance that Trump was citing a number that wasnât true.
>âIâm not aware of that,â Powell interrupted. The figure, the Republican responded, âjust came out.â
>Moments later, Trump tried to justify his claim, pulling a document from his jacket pocket and handing it to the Fed chair. Powell quickly reviewed the data and noticed an important flaw.
>âYou just added in a third building,â Powell said.
>âItâs a building thatâs being built,â Trump replied.
>âNo, it was built five years ago,â the Fed chair reminded him. âItâs not new.â>>2403720This is coming from the "adulting is too hard generation" coming accuse their juniors of being "unserious"?
>>2403699That anon is dumb, quoting a typical feminist platitude.
Irony is, women are more scared of humiliation than men. Hell, feminists would accuse men of misogyny for allowing a woman to be humiliated.
>>2403708Suburban women are not innocent either.
>>2403788>>2403779>>2403761>>2403709I blame chivalry.
In most other non western societies, young women were punished for bad behavior.
Western society infantilised women do much it's unreal.
Whatever negative stereotype you have of teenage girls, women are at their worst behavior in their thirties and forties.
>>2402635>I agree and whats good about america is that theres no realpatriotism left in this country.
I think as tine goes on and things get worse people are going to start identifying more with their state or region than as Americans.
>>2402649It means whatever socialist state(s) born from the ashes of the US sending financial, material, and even military aid to revolutionary movements elsewhere in the world.
>We getting funding from china?China would do everything in its power to stop any of the things I mentioned because they would pose a threat to China's economic and geopolitical interests.
>>2403788>A man in her position very much would not receive any coddling but it's pretty normal to encounter women in their 50's that are just the perfect combination of complete narcissist + violent + unable to function without a male caretaker. This lady at my work is like that and talking to her is like dealing with a child.Comparing a woman like that to a child is insulting to children. That kind of behavior I have encountered as well. It's not normal of children.
Children can be petty, but, that's just something beyond childish. That's fucking psychotic.
>>2403751This. People were going crazy on opium in the late nineteenth/early twentieth century.
Or how about the flower power generation jumping out of windows high on acid?
