I feel like Western labour just doesn't have any leverage anymore. The rich simply do not need us. They have outsourced enough labour that they really don't care if we strike en masse. Like, shut down which factories? They're all overseas.

    They were just pointing out that saying "my PC my rules" is pretty funny when you advocate for closed source software on it. Your PC their rules.

    Obviously it was tongue in cheek so chill.

    I think it's specifically because of Musk's recent comments regarding Canada. Pretty easy and painless win change for the Court as I don't imagine their social media presence is too important for them.

    I think when most people fantasize about socialism they are thinking of Nordic style and not authoritarian CCP style.

    My litmus test is the ability to openly criticize your government. In an open and free society this is allowed.

    Any authoritarian society, regardless of economic system, is not in the right track. In my opinion. Then again I only consume western media so maybe the CCP isn't that bad. Can you tell me what happened on June 4th, 1989?

    Strong disagree with this.

    Like most adults, I HATE my job. Every day I go into work I die inside. There is nothing rewarding about my job other than the pay check.

    Still I try hard. Every day. It makes the lives of my co-workers easier. It makes my boss's life easier. They are real people in my community and I care about how my actions affect them. Work ethic means a lot to me.

    I get hating your job but half assing your job every day is awful for society.

    I work in government.

    I know it's probably because there's money to be made.

    I just wish there was a good place to discuss IPTV providers that wasn't full of sketchy resellers over promising and under delivering. You'd think they could at least sort out their EPGs as most I have used are like 80% complete at best.

    Not asking for provider recommendations, not sure if that's allowed here. Just wondering if y'all know of a place where that shit can be discussed in a neutral and honest environment?
