country's procurement system is accused of costs being cut at the expense of people's safety

How unsurprisingly capitalistic of the CCP..

It’s the internet and we’re leftists and this is like saying copyright law is a good thing and totally misunderstands how ideas grow and propagate. It’s like telling someone they can’t alter a meme.

Jfc, I'm not misunderstanding anything. I'm not telling anyone to do or not do anything, I don't feel like I can't or I shouldn't do anything, I never claimed or even mention copyright, I simply made a choice not to bother altering an existing work somebody else made because I didn't see a good enough reason to, and because it literally makes no fucking difference to the content.

Yes,, fuck Drake, but to derail the entire conversation over an outline of his image appearing on a single slide, and try to "educate" me on copyright as if that's got anything to do with anything going on here seems significantly less productive than just ignoring it and moving on with your life, or, you know, focusing on the actual content.

It's not my work to edit. I also assume it's an older choice that didn't age well, rather than a current one.

I've not read them all, so I can't really rank them, but I do share Are You An Anarchist? The Answer May Surprise You! often, and of course there are the renowned Bullshit Jobs and Debt. I'm sure other folks can add their own suggestions..

It’s 2025, $710 is pocket change for anyone who can still afford to eat.

That's seriously out of touch, check your privilege.

Jfc, where the fuck does the author thinks consumerism comes from? Who do they think it serves? Why is it so fucking hard for some people to say "capitalism is the root cause of the destruction of the planet"??!!

It's exhausting..

Wow.

I only know they’re lying because I know other women who know them.

And I know, like many other women and non-binary people (including the ones whose knowledge and experience you're relying on, while refusing to acknowledge it has any value), from a lifetime of lived personal experience.

The question I gave as an example is meant to reveal whether they respect women as human beings, not a memory test.

Well it won't reveal that, and anyone who even half notices celebrity news will be able to pull a couple of names out of their ass, so it is nothing but a memory test.

Communication with you has been difficult. Please try to understand me. I intend to be friendly with you.

First off, fuck you and your tone policing.

I understand you perfectly I just think you're wrong, and the fact that you're framing that as me being "difficult" is problematic on so many fucking levels, including being classic misogyny.

Second of all, maybe if you'd have invested a tenth (or any!) of the time and energy you have arguing with me, trying to fix something that no one asked you to fix and that more importantly and demonstrably doesn't need fixing, in to addressing and calling out the men in this thread who prove exactly just how effective the original question is, I might have a little more patience for your noise.

But all you're doing is proving that you are incapable of, at the very fucking least, shutting up and listening to the people directly impacted by misogyny, instead of talking over us for the sake of being "right" (even when you're really not).

Kind of like:

They will possibly show up with a lot of battle rattle and a take-charge, can-do attitude.

🤔

I should have trusted my gut all the way back at your "not like other men" spiel..

I hope you take this as an opportunity to self reflect, recognise your problematic behaviour, and do better, but I won't be holding my breath nor sticking around to find out, I'm done wasting my time and energy here.

They are not correct, so they’re either lying or deceiving themselves. My point is that they will lie to you if you simply ask a straightforward question like that.

And mine (and I presume original OP's) point is that you know that they're lying to you, and therefore the question has served its purpose either way.

E: it's also there to ascertain how they regard and treat the real relationships with women in their real lives, not a memory test for names of people they've never had anything to do with.

As if we haven't all (or at least many) been under mass surveillance for at least 20 years..

Not defending anything, just fuck, I wish people started noticing shit before it came knocking on their individual door...

Sorry, all I can hear is gargling boot noises...

I'm not a dude, and you can feel free to go fuck yourself too, bootlicker.

Then you must not be paying much attention, or have an understanding of how capitalism functions (nor of how and why it inevitably decays in to fascism).

Lmfao, as if Keith would dare stand up to a mega corporation, or a fascist for that matter.. I give it a week, at absolute most.

"I'm such a massive lefty, I see no issue with a mega corporation bending the knee to a fascist regime and helping them virtually take over territory that isn't theirs" 🙄

(also no, it isn't only showing in the states, and this being an expected part of capitalism doesn't make it any less of a problem to be taken seriously)

reeks of insecurity big time.

No, it's literally the opposite, it's a display of power and support for an openly fascist regime they KNOW will benefit them financially.

It's the epitome of capitalism, and precisely why said capitalism will always decay in to fascism.

It's showing the same in at least 3 European countries (Netherlands, Sweden, Poland), too, see: https://lemmy.dbzer0.com/post/37545009

And this fucker defending them, too..

Jfc, imagine piping up do defend literal nazis, people who have chosen to follow an ideology dedicated to the extermination of people for who they ARE, and who are actively rounding people up in camps.

Go fuck yourself, collaborator.

Oh, and just fyi:

“Only one thing could have stopped our movement – if our adversaries had understood its principle and from the first day smashed with the utmost brutality the nucleus of our new movement“. - Adolf Hitler
