Fox news calling the US an empire is not new. How old do you all think the moniker “Empire State” is? It’s wild how it’s in our language but we just don’t think about it.

Could someone explain the joke to me? I’m not very smart.

I’m sure if you keep calling those who do as LARPers, it will surely encourage such dialogue.
For most eras, how hard it was to make a good sandwich. And I’m not just talking about the past.
I think their goal is to displace 90% into Egypt and kill the rest. Still genocide.
People really defending a corporation like it’s their friend or something.
This is a corporation we are talking about, and that sort of organization is intrinsically hostile to labor.
shrug I don’t think people are saying otherwise, but what they are saying is unions will make them an even better employer.
Not sure how Solipsism contradicts atheism or anything else for that matter… I see it more as punting the question. If my mind is the only way for me to know what exists, and my experience is such that atheism is true, then that’s the end of the discussion. Not sure why I am arguing with myself on this one. /S
Hell, labor and business is already a hostile relationship even without a union, which is why unions exist. Any boss that doesn’t act as if it’s class war is a chump who won’t be able to get funding from traditional institutions (banks, shareholders, etc).
From my point of view, the world is neither getting worse nor better.
Is the climate changing the human world for the worse, or isn’t it? Maybe you don’t deny that climate change is happening, but this comment seems to deny its impact.
Not if you loosely define “organized human society”. Imagine a bright future where you just live in your pod and be a happy meatbag that powers the Matrix. Hell, even corporations are “organized human society”.
Those ghouls are saying we should dim the sun instead of disinvestment in oil.
Weird that people insist climate change isn’t changing the world. Or at least not in a way that matters?
If we can’t say that our actions are making the world better or worse, then there really is no need to be involved in politics.
Are both sides ignorant of the history behind climate change?
A way of life is ending, but life will go on. Frankly I’m rooting for gas to be more expensive.
If you labor there’s only two ways you get paid your full worth: you own the means of your production or your boss is a chump. However much the job pays, you are going to have a larger impact than your salary (hopefully).
The first time they didn’t even think they were going to win. This time they have an org giving them a plan to dismantle the administrative state starting day 1: https://www.project2025.org/
Handing power over to proto-fascists would do more to end the two party system. But who actually thinks that’s a good idea?
You okay? I’m talking about behavior, and you’re making it about people’s abilities. If you want people to engage in critical analysis, don’t start by saying they’re unable to do it.
