I spent hours with my mother explaining a scientific paper that was paraded around YouTube with the usual half-assed reading they do, and that fucker even ended with “don’t trust me, read for yourself!” Which naturally no one does as “well he told me to look so he can’t be lying.”

Yeah well he was at best just dense and didn’t understand, but more than likely capitalizing on sensational bullshit…

No, the Chinese are not trying to create a super deadly COVID variant Mr.Campbell…

Believe it or not, jail!

There would generally be mandatory meetings for workers to attend that would allow for debates on the trajectory of the company. The state would “own” it but the workers would still direct it.

In a very very small way, it is like what Germany does with large corporations. They require a percentage of the board of directors be actual workers so it’s not just a bunch of capitalist parasites making decisions that would hurt workers just to boost their own portfolios/profits.

An individual can’t own the means of production, it’s supposed to be “owned” by the people. I’m not a communist, but that argument never changed.

I love that I have the option to vote for people on specific platforms in NY. I can show support for the Working Families Party while still voting for Democrats as the politicians can run under multiple parties so I’m not just tossing away a vote just to send a message

I see what you’re trying to do here and I won’t fall for your Mongolian propaganda techniques!

God damn Mongoriens! Always trying to break my shitty wall!

I’ve never seen the word tankie more in my life than I have since joining Lemmy and I had been on reddit for over 11 years lol

It’s absurd lol my job was complaining they can’t find anyone to work, yet they’re offering $16/hr for machinists that would need to drive an hour just to get here… It’s a joke

They say conscious beings are how the universe gets to know itself, so I AM the cosmos!

Take the upvote! :P

It’s the Vegeta hairline! I got mine at fucking 26… So now I just buzz my hair super short. I definitely miss being able to grow long hair and not look like I’m completely in denial lol

Some Americans worship cops as a part of their political identity. They’re the “Free-thinkers” that all seem to act identically and get their opinions handed down to them from US Reich wing media and internet personalities.

One thing about this post though is that the police DO protect and serve, it’s just who they’re protecting and serving (hint: it’s the wealthy and their businesses)

See this is how I know Lemmy hasn’t caught on quite yet. If this were Reddit I’d see a ton of “LaBoR vAlUe ThEoRy BaD!” Comments from reddit “economists.”

Me: Watching random documentary, kicked back, calm and content.

My body: Time to feel like you’re dying! This is it!
