I always wondered how CEOs manage to justify such high pay to boards of directors… but I guess the boards don’t even really care.

This is what class essentialism ultimately leads to… and they’re not without predecessors, like the US SPA party that excluded asians and latinos.

There is no theory that can be absorbed from these “responding to prageru” videos.

That is really annoying to see… I think it’s called tailism? To a certain extent it’s unavoidable because capitalists are in power… but communists should be the ones setting the talking points.

This video by flame of liberation is really informative.

Solidarity is a beautiful thing.

We’d want custom emojis to be put into lemmy proper, then any instance could use them. We’re focused on other things atm, but anyone is free to add that.

The money from his foundation has corrupted so many public health organizations… it’s really sad.
