What laws are preventing competition in the CRM space?
I mean it depends on the context of how UBI is going to get paid for. If it is funded by a wealth tax then I am on board. But that's not how the powerful proponents of UBI say it should be funded. Andrew Yang would have us take it out of Social Security to pay for it but you don't hear him say we should uncap Social Security contributions.
AI is maturing into what exactly?
This only convinces me AI can replace venture capitalists, not that it can do any actual work.
It's not a conspiracy, it is just the path of least resistance. Which is why capitalism is the problem.
Agents without agency is some real double speak and might reflect how many view workers.
My TikTok feed is rather radical, which is a non+option on all the other corporate platforms.
The contradictory belief that voters who backed Trump are too stupid to understand what they voted for, but nevertheless deserve pain
This so much. The "voters are too stupid" narrative defangs any attempt to talk about how our systems misinform (or don't inform) voters.
Are there no trans billionaires to object to being erased?
The badge lets others know you're a masochistic
Is joining a union an individual action or a social circumstance?
I guess my point is that environment (social circumstance) and individual behavior is a gradient. Drawing a clear line between the two so that "individual behavior" is the largest share might actually be unhealthy framing as it takes out of focus how an individual might improve their circumstances.
Individual behavior basically includes what kind of job you're working, because that definitely impacts much of those other behaviors like sleep and quality of food.
Providing context is a display of liberal bias.
Let's be real, they're not axing it because of diversity, but rather the two words that follow (Equity and Inclusion) are an anathema to share holder value.
Careful, people might start thinking you can teach Democrats to do better by making them loose.
You can't win the medium that is owned by the opposition. Bottom line is they will enforce their rules (and make new ones) against any successful leftist strategy on the platform. And conveniently ignores those same rules in regards to the right.
Lot's of good responses here.
It's not just money they accumulate, but the capacity for violence. In the past when money wasn't enough to get what they want, they sponsor a coup or a harassment campaign or assassination. If they have a monopoly on (state) violence then they can just give their workers company scrip in place of money to spend at the company stores for essentials. They've done it in the past and this time around it might rhyme with crypto. As long as their police have their needs taken care of and get some extra perks, they will gladly bust skills to break those pesky union upstarts.
Seems I guessed that right from the headline. There's plenty to shit on, like their soldiers being sent to the Ukrainian meat grinder. But when you see "country bans cheap food" or "country requires kim jong haircuts for everyone", don't be gullible.
