sandman,

Hate to break it to you, but pretty much all of capitalist society is built upon the conditions you describe.

sandman,

I agree.

People need to put down their crystal balls and learn to experience life for themselves.

‘In the US they think we’re communists!’ The 70,000 workers showing the world another way to earn a living (www.theguardian.com)

When Marisa Fernández lost her husband to cancer a few years ago, her employers at the Eroski hypermarket went, she says, “above and beyond to help me through the dark days afterwards, rejigging my timetable and giving me time off when I couldn’t face coming in.”...

sandman,

I almost got shot in a truck stop in Elk City OK because I pointed out roads and the armed forces where socialist institutions.

I completely believe you, and it’s sad these are also the people who routinely complain about censorship.

sandman,

Biggest problem? Funding. No investors want to touch a co-op.

Here’s where it gets rough. The biggest problem isn’t “funding.” It’s people working solely for money and nothing else.

If you really care about X, then you should be willing to put in the work even if it doesn’t give you the most money in return.

As long as, at all levels of society, people prioritize wealth over results, these problems will not get solved.

sandman,

People should really think about how much money is wasted on bullshit laws.

Imagine all the advances in science we could be making, all the homes we could be building, and all the children we could be feeding.

But instead, we spend money to ensure rich people can make more money.

It’s fucked.

sandman,

Works just the same when video creators post to both and just keep promoting the YouTube one.

No it doesn’t.

Take your own advice.

sandman,

Hmm, they may have changed it or I could be misremembering.

Desktop mode also allows you to play a video while your screen is off which is good for listening to music.

Over 30 pro-Palestine protesters arrested at Ohio State: what we know (www.nbc4i.com)

COLUMBUS, Ohio (WCMH) – Ohio State University police and the Ohio State Highway Patrol arrested about three dozen people Thursday night for staging a pro-Palestine encampment on campus – carrying out what is likely the highest number of protest-related arrests there since the Vietnam War....

sandman,

Calm down.

There are exceptions, but for most people college is a waste of time and money.

sandman,

You’re projecting.

sandman,

You’re not capable of understanding things you don’t like so there’s no point.

sandman,

Yeah. Unlike you, I don’t argue with everyone who wants to argue.

It’s part of being an adult.

sandman,

Lol, stay in school.

sandman,

It’s okay.

You’ll understand when you’re older. Hopefully.

sandman,

They’re indoctrinated beyond belief.

You’re either with them, or against them.

sandman,

Welcome to the war on independence.

You’re either loyal to the tribe, or an enemy.

sandman,

You don’t know what projection means.

sandman,

Yes. And they’re almost always people who have poor character judgement because their parents never taught them.

sandman,

Your words, not mine.

sandman,

So… it’s only for a specific group of people who don’t have parents to teach them right from wrong?

sandman,

Yeah, reality isn’t pretty.

sandman,

WTF? Clearly I wasn’t referring to those cases. Did you honestly think I was? Or are you pretending to misunderstand an argument because you don’t like it? Fess up.

It would be better to raise children to pick their friends more wisely.

Just cherrypicking what you want to hear, eh? It’s okay. I see it all the time and don’t expect more from you people at this point.

Goodbye.

sandman,

Thank you!

I thought it was pretty funny, lol.

sandman,

“Intimidation is the tactic,”

Yes, absolutely. There is a war against free speech and they’re trying to make people afraid to even fight back.
