Nah. You can not be a maga and still be pretty conservative. In fact look at folks like Feinstein and Blumenthal, you can be relatively high up in the Democratic party and still be ultra conservative.
I don't know if capitalism is to blame so much as a shift towards a more interdependent society. People blame the industrial revolution, which I think makes sense, but it's not the spectre of capitalism in and of itself. Having more dedicated roles meant less chores at home for everyone (eventually) but more chores like "going shopping" which has to be done during the hours when things are open which means you inherently want to concentrate all of your active hours for most of the population into a small subset (our current 8-6 time frame). There's still morning people and normal people, but that time is spent in general on concentrated large scale socialization (going to the bars or whatever) and individual hobbies (running for morning people, seemingly universally; games, tv, etc for normal people).
Of course all this is a guess. Maybe the monopoly man really does hate people sleeping. Elon sure does.
No, we have "thin blue line" and somehow a long running controversy about which lives matter and which lives still matter but we shouldn't say it because it implies you think the others don't matter because of the thin blue lines. Humans are fucking weird, no matter the language.
The /s would not have helped, it just came off as a slightly more science version of "well what if the kids start identifying as attack helicopters" which comes back to the hypothesis that conservatives like yourself only have one joke.
So you're leaning harder into the part I took most issue with? The deciders here are not programmers. Also, that behavior is a coping mechanism for not wanting to believe they are misogynistic douches.
And uh....what the fuck are you talking about with bringing in liberal woke viewpoint as a thing in this conversation? I sincerely hope you're just a Russian troll because otherwise you're incomprehensible.
@cm0002@lemmy.world did you mean that you literally fired off a vacation request as you were boarding the plane and it was denied, and you said fuckit. or was this a more general rage against the machine post indicating a general dislike of the concept that managers even have the ability to deny vacation requests. That is, a shitpost not intended to be taken literally.
Well the article is about two paragraphs long, so why don't you highlight the section you think backs up your point because I sure don't see it.
And to be clear, a product executive at VW is by no stretch "in tech". I'd even consider IBM to be more of a tech company than VW, and IBM has more in common with PWC than apple.
