Yeah, I believe the phrase is short for the weather:

What’s the weather doing?

It is raining.

Context matters. Always. One person can use a word and it will be not racist, another can use the same term and it will be racist. You should ask the person what they define as “civilized”. Their reasoning is your answer.

He drowned, didn’t he?

The predestal/respect bit in my comment was about this post as a whole. IMO, the screenshotted person does not deserve to be paid attention to. They are not revealing anything new by any means while choosing to make the problem worse.

I don’t know what anyone being in my family has to do with anything. My response is the same: if you are unhappy enough to complain out loud about something you are helping cause, either do something about it or shut the fuck up.

That’s all good and well and I agree with you, but I also believe if you have and are continuing to feed the machine, then you don’t get to be put on a pedestal or respected for recognizing how bad the machine is. This person is repeating something that is already very well known and accepted and is simultaneously adding to the alarm while causing it. I have extremely low patience for that particular brand of person. They are continuing to cause the problem they are rallying against.

If I were face to face with this person, I’d genuinely say “either quit working there or shut the fuck up.”

“im a henchman for a bad guy…and lemme tell you…I think we might be starting to do bad stuff…not sure yet…”

Thanks bud

Grammatically, it doesn’t say that. An act of aggression or a nuclear blah blah is vague enough that you can read it with or without a comma

That’s not badly written. Thats intentionally vague so one can justify a lot of different responses. That’s how these things work

There is a difference between approaching a solution with “no, it’s not good enough” and “good, now let’s make it better”. It’s not really different if you strip feeling out of it, but in a greater context, that feeling means something.

I agree with your responses, but you’re overall using the former technique. That will rub people wrong and spark conflict.

Rape is an actual crime in the UK, it’s not a crime by name in New Jersey. They’re being consistent with charges based on the jurisdiction.

…is facing at least 10 years in prison if found guilty of first-degree aggravated sexual assault, second-degree sexual assault, and second-degree endangerment to the welfare of a child…

Those are the legal terms for different kinds of rape.

Why would you spread this? That’s the point of these things, to get a reaction out of people and get it seen by more people.

Stop making shit worse

Dude, I just said it’s not indentured servitude.

I never said the system wasn’t broken, in fact I’m on one of those horrible visas now.

Some sort of rule about verification may help your cause, and I hope it runs well for you

Without strong and trusted mods, this will be interesting…

Also, down votes aren’t supposed to be for people who are correcting you (or people you disagree with 😘)

That doesn’t contradict what I said? It matches everything I’ve said as well. And there’s a 60 day grace period generally speaking. Can you define and name any similar with indentured servitude?

That isn’t the rule for h1b visas.

If you want to simplify it, then it’d be If you want to live and work in a country, you have to be sponsored by a company. If you’re laid off, you have 60 days to find another sponsor

I’m not doing either of those things. You made a claim by misunderstanding terms for hyperbole. I said that your claim isn’t true. You backed up your claim with more hyperbole. I rebutted that with how it’s standard practice globally and even in within a larger scope is a more reasonable standard.

QED, the US visa program is not indentured servitude, by colloquial or exact definitions, and not ultra-capitalistic by any stretch. These are not whataboutism or dodging. They directly address your statements.

All countries have some sort of work for visa program, which by itself is not indentured servitude. And given there are non ultra-capitalistic countries that also have it, the practice is also not “as far as one can get”.

Hell, to group the US 's visa program in with the ones that literally end with slavery (and are actually like what you described) is just poor form.
