When the situation changes would you prefer they are part of a union or solidarity group or that they know to vote 3rd party in a past election?

Lots of people foolishly think political parties can learn lessons.

You think the political system is going to someday learn it’s lesson and work for you?

Whoever is elected is our opponent, the sooner you all accept that fact the better. Doesn’t mean you should pick a tougher boss level.

They still have elections in Russia /s

Political parties don’t learn, they respond to power.

Chewing bones and seeing orbs are not covered in US health insurance

I make a really good living but seeing how we treat the homeless makes me realize just how little society actually cares about us. I’m just here so long as I am making someone more money. So fuck that, I stared a family and now they got to deal with this future as well, but at least we’re in it together.

A wealth tax. With that we could fully fund all the research people mention and have the means to roll out the advancement in a way that doesn’t cause massive externalities.

If my house is on fire I couldn’t care less as long as they save my kids. Being a genuine asshole doesn’t deserve that fate.

Killed a fire fighter though 😡

This is me and my family right now. Two days ago we had lunch with our pastor to discuss the design of the church’s nursery and I came out as atheist and my wife came out as Buddhist. The pastor didn’t challenge us on any of that and we ended talking about what drew us to social justice causes. We believe in each other and that is enough.

Sometimes I think the police is just a jobs program for those who can’t take the abuse in the service industry and don’t have the requisite skills to get through a vocational training program.

We don’t see black empowerment in China or a pride parade in Iran.

Sir, this is a Wendy’s.

DEI requirements is not nepotism, but let’s take on the core issue I think you brought up: meritocracy. If you show me two people with the same level of skill and experience, I would say the one that came from the most disadvantaged environment is more qualified because they were able to get to the same level with less support.

But you brought in numbers, let me do the same. L Consider that the minority group you mentioned actually has greater barriers to participate, so those 10 people might actually perform better than 80% of the 1000 of the majority group. Assuming both groups have the same distribution of merit is a fallacy.
