100% concur! The Huffington Post established itself online by soliciting unpaid work from contributors before shutting that initiative down when it reached critical mass.

Do not work for free or for “exposure.” GET PAID. Know your worth.

Especially looking at you, fellow Black creators!

Musk spent $44 BILLION to buy a social media platform that probably won’t exist in 5 years.

Just stop and think if he were a human and directed that money towards eradicating poverty, homelessness + hunger.

Greed and racism have set us back hundreds of years.

It’s tragic.

We are the ultimate dystopia.

One of capitalism’s biggest accomplishments? It has indoctrinated people into demonizing the poor and working poor, while admiring and venerating the rich.

So many feel free to tell poor people what they need to do with the little means they have, but no one chastises and admonishes at the same scale the wealthy regarding their excesses, while they pay little to no taxes.

Traits like “genius” + “self-made” are attributed to the rich just because they are wealthy.

And the propaganda is EVERYWHERE: For example, Showtime’s series BILLIONS - a love letter to the ultra-rich. And spinoffs are planned.

Very interesting. I learned long ago that having a sense of loyalty to an employer is very misguided.

I hope 2024 sees more workers in various industries and business sectors begin to bargain collectively, as we saw last summer.

Every year around MLK day, we are bombarded with people who would've hated Dr. King if he were living today misquote and take out of context his words.

Here are quotes from Dr. King you HAVEN'T heard:

Yeah, wrote this piece a few years ago. Sadly, it’s evergreen.

So much of what is considered comedy in the standup world is just awful, toxic trash.

And to think we could’ve had Levar Burton as host.

But, you know, racism.

I stopped watching after Burton got screwed over.

Policing in the U. S. is hopelessly broken due to systemic racism and a history of deference and lack of accountability.

Black people continue to be murdered by the state with impunity.

But, happy new year. 😑😕
