If you were using an LLM it would have said something stupid about how book burning is something that can be normalized by either side and then given definitions for way to many words in a long paragraph.

I don’t think it would be better, and prefer the emotional but educated response of someone else seeing through the garbage of calling out the opinion forum of newspaper for being responsible of all said in it.

I did. But yeah every time I read an article about some worker dying these days I swear it mentions they were immigrants or are being represented by an immigrant group because they literally didn’t have the legal protections themselves.

I’m so tired of it. And hearing that people that died due to negligence of any origin doesn’t make me feel great but this is telling of who is considered disposable labor.

If we can’t treat people like humans we don’t deserve to be relying on their labor.

Yeah. I mean people that are excellent workers cause they are cheap. Can be told to pay their own way to training themselves and will do it because they are desperate. Able to be deported to a country where they won’t have have any legal discourse for any reason so they won’t complain and take what they can get, or else lose their money, the cost of paying to get here and potentially their family.

So, yeah I mean. No wonder anyone with a business loves them.

Human lives have been deemed valueless it seems. Only worth as much as they have already produced and nothing more.

Not by the average person mind you but by every person above that has reduced humanity to numbers and economic performance. Why care when the person can be replaced or the product they make reproduced through automation or cheaper labor elsewhere. People are just the cogs that are worth as much as they are currently valued at and it must be reduced to make those that feel worth more than the rest of us feel even more powerful and necessary.

We have forgotten the worth of human effort and lives not yet lived while some get distracted with hypotheticals of specific people or ones that don’t yet exist.

Fuck this reality. Fuck the reduction of humanity because of the will of those that hate others. We need to deal with now and our idea of what matters.

Jesus Christ. Then the next video is how the Statue of Liberty and ?Abraham Lincoln?! Are crying over a travel restriction?! Don’t get me wrong what a stupid response from Trump to “answer” immigration but Christ it is so performative nonsense.

There are some studies that say the Sahara desert is actually the result of mass farming goats in the area that removed so much of the vegetation it started a cascading effect of desertification.

We have a long history of fucking up the planet for reasons that are silly in hindsight that leaves scars that literally affect the future of the planet. Unfortunately I don’t think there will ever be a swift and merciful end but one that drags out so don’t go praising the suffering to come yet.

In the article and the after statement from the company it seems that a lot of employees left earlier but the ones that stayed were non native English speaking immigrants that paid with their lives to be cheap labor and are being represented by a refugee and immigration group in the area for their deaths.

So not loyal but those trapped to the company that held power over them. As you would expect of people that need the job to stay and allows for the company to have absolute power over their workers like they want.

Why? They were immigrants so they could be disposable labor right?

One of the employees who died, Bertha Mendoza, 56, fell off the truck and vanished into the flood, according to Ingram and a representative from Tennessee Immigrant and Refugee Rights Coalition.

Same with the fucking bridge that got destroyed in Delaware Baltimore and every factory disaster. Immigrants doing the labor that die for our carelessness, and easy to replace.

Seconded

Meh I know this one.

I like, If you earned $2,000 a minute, for every minute of you simply existing you would be a millionaire by halfway through the day, but to be a billionaire it would take you a full year of $2,000 a minute.

To be Jeff Bezos wealthy it would still take you 195 YEARS OF MAKING $2,000 A MINUTE

Oh I usually block the ads via a pihole and don’t even bother logging in. Tubi is great

We got to bump up those numbers till it’s just the C-suite and investors that aren’t prisoners in this chain

OK so I’m a millennial worth $-35,600, that’s a negative net worth thanks to student loans and the fact that owning anything is outside of my shirt on my back is basically been priced out.

So a net worth of close to $900,000 is feeling a lot like a whole fuck ton of money to me. And probably a lot of other people nowhere fucking near that.

Just cause we live in “western” countries does not make it immediately that we are anywhere near the 1% either. It’s 1% for a reason. Just more of that 1% live in western worlds cause that’s where they want to live. Don’t think of it as some slam dunk.

Yeah but if they double the price and only lose 1/3 of their customers that is a profit. They are aiming for that equilibrium price and honestly more people are willing to pay to never have their entertainment end than we could ever hope for.

So this has been true of YouTube Red since the beginning. It’s one if the reasons I got it. But they use watch time as the way to divide your money out. It actually makes it extremely unfair split for people that make great but short content. It’s also why longer content became more popular around that time and those 24/7 streams run like that.

Also why creators started doing channels of just padded run time content of like building legos and eating things. It’s to secure better and funding.

The current setup is pretty busted and feels like the wheels are coming off again.

Yea I agree with so much of what you are saying, China gets a pass to distribute cheap dangerous crap cause at least it was cheaper for the middle man selling it.

Enmasse its another French loan word.

Oh, ew.

Thanks for the correction but also that’s… About right for America and billionaires.

Just allowed in to fuck with people, hack phones, steal money and leave.

So that explains Fox being owned by an Australian then?

Oh my goodness what a “gotcha!” Question! How on earth could I possibly have an answer for it! And oh no! The answer might show that I have nuance that extends past a singular answer making you a default Victor because life is complicated and you are able to pretend it’s not! Whatever will I do?!
swoon

All of the ones with people in them.
Because I give a shit about people.
But you know, I give priority consideration to the ones that legitimately need help because on a tiered hierarchy those need more care for the time which will change as situations change. And then of course at the top of the hierarchy is my own country as it directly influences my life and my ability to do or offer help to others.

You know, Similar to how one might structure their friends and family consideration, if they cared about them at all too. But I’m sure these must all seem like truly complex and impossible thoughts.

But hey maybe people just actually care about things in a way that you don’t and you need to stop thinking everyone has your brain and is faking it to get something out of it like a psychopath or a narcissist.

Nah. That is just part of the lie to make you think they are some indestructible super machine of super soldiers when they are just people with access to expensive weapons.

They missed an entire plot from their prisoners to rebel and commit a terrorist attack because they just talked about it in person instead of online.

This kind of thinking helps Mealnie Sue housewife in Indiana feel good about the killing of innocents cause the greatest smartest force couldn’t possibly be wrong or uninformed about things.

They know they are bombing civilians. They know that, trust me. But they don’t care nearly as much to know exactly who. That’s to be spun afterwards.
