Fuck the Second Amendment. It’s been killing us, ESPECIALLY Black and brown people, since forever. It’s gotta go. Period. And, oh hey, look at that, we already have a process that let’s us change the Constitution, so the “originalists” can fuck right of with that argument too!

They didn’t. It’s all a smash and grab job before the entire thing collapses. Too bad they’re apparently too dumb to realize they’ll be in our boat right along side all us little dirty peons. Unless they’re also dumb enough to believe they can catch a private rocket off planet and live on Mars while they watch and…

I think we should just get rid of CEOs and the other parasites and democratize the workplace. All these people at the top don’t actually, you know, work or produce anything other than money for investors, who themselves don’t really do anything either. I'd bet cash money if the workers were making collective decisions…

Much of the information in NLRB complaints is confidential. Also, you sound like a scab...

So Florida CAN become an even worse conservative s**thole. Who knew?

LOL! Private property, which Twitch and YouTube and all the other platforms are, is literally not "the public square".

LOL! You think what he actually does every day is work. Cute.

Musk simply financed those things. The actual experts he pays to do the actual work are the ones who “built” those companies. Musk is just the bank. No matter what anyone thinks he can’t design anything in or on a rocket, and he’s not the electrical engineer or chemist who can design an electric car and it’s battery.…

The union is actually the most likely reason they can write freely about it. Without having the buffer zone created by a union the company can keep a lid on the people who work for them. It’s one of the many reasons why businesses hate unions, they can claw back a LOT of the control that companies use against their…

I’m looking forward to more think pieces. I especial liked the ones about trans issues in gaming narratives or other queer readings of characters or stories. I've learned a lot from reading Kotaku articles. I hope more stuff that teaches me things comes down the pike. I, for one, LOVE all the "politics" in the…

Sometimes we have to make the “wrong” move. Sometimes, if we don’t leave, the impacts on our whole health aren’t worth sticking it out. We also shouldn’t give up on our principles either. Those are important, too. I hope more workers start to demand better and withhold their most valuable asset, their labor, to show…

Mutual aid is paramount! It's an idea we have to make sure we communicate to the general public and explain why it's so important.

This reader didn’t even know this was all going on. Luckily my news app didn’t serve me up any articles from Kotaku during this time, probably since nothing new was being posted. I'm glad for the serendipity though; I always avoid crossing picket lines if I can. Unless it's for food, which I would die without, but not…

My mom was a public educator for 25 years. Even though she’s retired now she still pays the union dues to ensure the new teachers coming in have a strong union that will make sure they get all the benefits she had. It’s essential that we always stick together so the top of the stack can’t keep breaking us like they…

I see you've yet to be introduced to our beloved Scabby!

This can be really complicated stuff, so no, your question isn't dumb. But basically, you can't monetize work that you didn't create. You can think of it kind of like plagiarism, but instead of thoughts and words it's artwork. You cannot take artwork you yourself didn't create and make money off of it. Copyright…

Yeah, it’s important for people to make friends in real life and stop looking to the internet for literally everything. Our entire lives cannot be lived virtually. Otherwise you get assholes like Vitalik Buterin start a fucking scam “currency” because World of WarCraft and Blizzard hurt his fragile little feelings…

Same here. I’m starting to find myself sort of checking out of gaming entirely. Nothing feels new, it all feels like the same rehashed shit over and over. And I have never, nor will ever, get on the whole new sequel every year thing they live and die for. The only sequel I have active plans to buy (when I get around…

Oh well. I've liked playing video games for decades. If they make it such that I actively hate doing it I'll be fine. My personality isn't solely tied to one hobby. My life can continue doing something else. 

The faster you spit out that kool-aid the faster you'll realize you're giving people who have demonstrated time and again how low their willing to go to grab the last dollar from your bank account way too much credit.
