The disparity between average worker and CEO pay went from 31-to-1 under Carter to 61-to-1 under Reagan and hit 351-to-1 under Trump and there’s no sign it’s going back down.
“We believe that an important decision that will impact the entire Raven Software studio of roughly 350 people should not be made by 19 Raven employees.”
“We respect and believe in the right of all employees to decide whether or not to support or vote for a union,” Activision Blizzard spokeswoman Ron Talia told Kotaku in an email. “We believe that an important decision that will impact the entire Raven Software studio of roughly 350 people should not be made by 19…
Ever since Reagan(in the case of the most obvious), corporate executives have been hard at work at conditioning the public to be exploited, overworked, underpaid for the “good of America”, and ignoring economical shifts that hurt the bottom line, while CEOs rake in the profits of everyone else’s work. Nationalism…
The alternative is to drag the execs into the streets and bludgeon them until worker complaints are addressed, just like in the good ol’ days before unions. You’d think treating your employees with a modicum of respect and/or collective bargaining would be preferable to that outcome, but I’m not some fancy executive…
Basically anything that executives hate, you can guarantee it benefits those below them in some way.
Yep. If the corporate suits were going to fix the problem then they would have by now. Which means they were NEVER going to fix it. The only recourse left was worker-led action and unionization.
When the company is posting record profits and CEOs and other exces are pulling in record bonuses while the employees actually doing the work are overworked and underpaid, the only solution *IS* to unionize. How many times will this lesson have be learned before it finally sticks??
As someone who did get sick from tainted peanut butter many years ago - I wouldn’t wish it on anybody. I left a voicemail for my gf (now wife) and she fully expected to show up at my apartment and find me dead. It wiped me out for a solid week, and it probably took me a full month to get back to normal. There was…
“For [cyberpunk] to be effective, I find that it needs to draw on something about now because I don’t think that Gibson and [Bruce] Sterling were writing about the future. I think they were writing about the moment they were in,” Martin said. “We should continue to make cyberpunk work about the moment we’re in, not…
It’s bizarre that you’re framing this as a “class” thing. What class are cryptobros? The bare minimum for entry into the crypto world requires that you have a modern computing device, high-speed internet access, and at least a few hundred dollars of disposable income you can afford to throw away.
Oh wow, I heard that in my head loud and clear as soon as I read it
It read to me like somebody at GameStop played Civilization IV and decided to imitate Leonard Nimoy’s delivery of the quote by Wendell Phillips:
“What the internet did for communication, blockchains do for value.”
Nah, nah, this is all cool and good. There will be some cryptobros (who are definitely not panicking) coming by to explain shortly.
“This isn’t how we do it, kid. First, you get through the police academy, and then you start killing unarmed Black civilians. If you had just followed procedure, you’d be looking at a paid ‘administrative leave’ right now.”
Weird how cops are so good at bringing in these heavily armed and outfitted white supremacist killers alive but can’t seem to get George Floyd or Eric Garner in the back of a squad car without oopsie doopsie murdering them
At this point, if you find 4chan in your kids browsing history, it’s time to throw every internet capable device they have into a volcano and move to the woods. 18 years old, Christ.
