People predicting the demise of baseball seem to forget that there will always be new old people.

I'm not saying corporations don't make rash terrible decisions on the fly because good lord do they, but I'm still skeptical as to this being a sudden decision within like six hours after a holiday weekend and not the culmination of things internally we're not privy to, especially when they also fired the guy.
I just noticed that the subnautica dev they got fired was a woman

Yeah I'm pretty sure you could get disciplined, perhaps fired, for such attitude in France. My impression though is that termination seems very common in the US and always go lightning fast.QuoteI can see why a company would be eager fire an employee who wasnt "proper" on social mediaThat said, I salute her for being honest. That clown thought he was slick with his condesending shit. I'd cook the shit outta some clown who tried to pull that on me

User Banned (1 Week): Trolling with racist imagery
Quote from: https://www.resetera.com/posts/10378016/User Banned (1 Week): Trolling with racist imageryi don't understand why some of these aren't perms considering the professed intentions of ERA...i mean if a fucking junior nazi like 21337bu mandates a perm for crackin wise, surely someone who TROLLS with RACIST IMAGERY and posts "You guys clearly refuse to see the truth of the Muslims running rampant in the UK" you expect them to come back in a week less racist? we all know racists and nazi's can never stop being that, they aren't that slick
Looks like they permabanned me."You have been banned for the following reason: History of abusing the report system to troll and/or insult the staff, including a prior ban for this same reason. It’s clear that you’re not happy here and that a separation is best for all involved."For the record, I never "trolled or insulted" the staff aside from saying I didn't agree with the moderation. I did use some of their buzz phrases in some reports I guess, e.g. "history of similar behavior", guess they're thin skinned and took that as trolling.
Do I gotta clean more shit up. Ughthis is tiring.
They won’t be racist in a week silly
So more than half of the elected officials in the US across state and federal governments are Nazis? Man, talk about watering down a term
Nice sidestep.And yes, they are.

They are either Nazis, Neo-Nazis, fascists, or they tacitly support these types of people.
This person's main hobby is following a profession that puts its workers at extreme physical risk on a daily basis, yet refuses to offer any type of health insurance or unionization due to the workers being independent contractors. She routinely gives money to these companies by buying merch that the workers only get a fraction of the revenue from despite their likenesses being sold and commoditized.
I love when she trashes capitalism when I know girl has closets full of wrestling merch, not to mention the irony of posting on a forum full of people pre-ordering amiibos.

QuoteSo more than half of the elected officials in the US across state and federal governments are Nazis? Man, talk about watering down a term.When people like you say this kind of shit, like, how do you think Nazi Germany happened? Do you think they were some tiny minority that somehow managed to take power?No - they were voted in. They were popular. They were mainstream. They had the support of the public. Turns out, white nationalism is a very popular idea, and has been entrenched in American culture since the day Columbus set fucking foot on the shores. Our whole nation exists because we slaughtered the natives, because we felt entitled to their land under the glory of God! And even today we are a country where police can murder people of color with no consequence, where we're stripping Latinx children from their parents and holding them hostage, where Muslims live in fear of some proud "Christian" gunning down their mosque, because this country is racist as fuck and always has been. The people in power are a reflection of that.

I feel like the term nazis is being watered down beyond what we colloquially did to commies in the past 50 years.
This is bizarre because you can look up how the Nazi's used a broad appealing populist strat to get into many political positions before going to what you and mainstream America view as 'full on Nazis'.Tea Party getting a bunch of seats, President, and now getting their judges in place. I would think we are close to halfway through the steps and running out of time.

Being a billionaire isn't a sign of success. It's a sign of fundamental wrongs in the system and every single billionaire in the world owns several billion dollars he should give away to causes intent on saving lives, providing medicine and feeding people. If you sit on a billion dollars instead of saving literalls houndreds of thousands, possibly millions of people with that money, you are an evil, evil person who values money more than most anything. If you own 20 billion like Musk? I wouldn't even be able to sleep.

Hoarding wealth to that degree is a bad thing, yes. I don't strive to be a billionaire and never will.
Quote from: excelsiorlefThis thread should go into a textbook for how Capitalism basically incentives amorality not just in those with capital but those who just live in the system and accept its rulesIndeed. Posters in here showing textbook examples of the commodification neoliberal Capitalism has given us.Enveration abound.
People here trying to be way too pragmatic about things that are very clearly anti-progress and go against our own way of life.
Being a Republican is not acceptable and should not be treated as normal or at all compatible with basic human decency.
The vast majority of wealthy Democrats are secretly republican anyway so this doesn’t surprise me at all.
I mean the majority of Democrats and all Republicans are pro-business in the extreme.
you know whatlast two posts not a good look for this forum
