On a US dairy farm, working in the milking parlor can mean seven-day weeks, 12-hour shifts and intimate contact with cows and everything they expel.

“When you disconnect the machine from the udder, it can shoot milk in your face,” said José Martínez, a former dairy worker and United Farm Workers advocate based in Washington state. “And there’s no time or place to eat. So we ate our tacos in spare moments with cow shit on our hands.”

Our inability to prepare for the next pandemic is itself horrible.

But infectious diseases aside, this misery resulting from capitalism is horrible too.

Would you ever want any of your children or loved ones to be compelled to work seven days a week, 12 hours a day, working hard physical labor, with no facilities to wash their hands before quickly eating a meal?

If not, would you wish that upon anyone else?

This is truly sad.

The part about his mother deleting the incriminating evidence was nice too.

LOL, you’re probably right!

The fine is pathetically low. And that needs to be fixed.

However, the name “Arthur Grand Technologies” will always be synonymous to racism. They dug their own grave.

I think we all knew this of President Drink Bleach, and we saw how he tear-gassed protesters that time when he held a Bible visibly for a photo shoot.

Trump’s issue, I optimistically believe, is that those who wrote “Uncommitted” during the primaries and those who point out the ongoing genocide will still vote for Biden - because everyone has already correctly assumed what this article is stating.

Nonetheless, it’s reaffirming to have confirmation. Thank you for posting this.

Minnesota Just Became The Latest State to Eliminate Prison Gerrymandering (boltsmag.org)

In 2010, ahead of the decennial redistricting process, Minnesota’s legislature considered adopting a bold reform: It would stop counting state prisoners as residents of the districts where they were incarcerated, and instead count them as residents of the districts from which they hailed before prison. At the time, this was a...

Very glad to hear about this.

I didn’t know this was a thing in the first place, but I’m glad that the tide is turning.

If her dog could have a say or bark in this, I’m sure it would equate to approval of the banning.

~$105k per murdered harmed child. I think it should have been much more than that.

As someone else asked: OP, do you really believe this content?

Aside from how horrible and shortsighted this reasoning is, I also need to ask:

If a stranger asked you who you work for, would you answer?
