as a medical doctor and teacher of pediatric medicine, I would be fascinated by a group of wizards that charge young parents to heal their terminal children of incurable disease with magic spells and potions.
Lmao the sheer out of touch ness on so many levels.
“If you don’t like a company, buy it!” Levels of stupid.
Gotta love that these are the morons that gets to be professors in a capitalist system. Truly only the best teaching the next generation how to be stupid.
Investor activism is such a long and drawn out process and you are telling zoomers with no fucking money to pool together all their resources and compete against fucking Blackrock or Bain Capital?
For decades, these American arms manufacturers have created obscene amounts of wealth for a handful of billionaires at the cost of millions of lives. But we can put a stop to that; together. You and I. All we have to do is give more money to those same billionaires. If each one of us pitches in as little as $300,000, we can make a difference.
Voting power is proportional to shares owned aka how much money you have. The market cap of Lockheed Martin is $110B. Where are the students going to get the literal multi-10s-of-billions of dollars to acquire an activist-size stake? Like holy fuck this is so unbelievably stupid.
Even if this was possible, shouldn’t these protests compel the school admin to start demanding changes for the weapons corporations? I can’t recall if they actually have investments in the contractors (I’m sure they do), but if such change can be made by individual student investment, then institutions representing the student surely must have more impact. But they choose not to, not even pretend to to further their propaganda. Because saying a god damn thing against Israel is unholy suicide.
It’s astonishing rrealizing how much of American political thought is just this intense kayfabe of presenting a real political system while rigidly upholding the status quo at all costs.
Now the anti union propaganda makes more sense. Because if you don’t want to be part of a union or be “at the table,” then they’ll make you believe that you won’t benefit at all from negotiations, thus it’s a waste of money and time. In reality even if you’re at the table, you’re relegated to a second thought.
