The world market keeps them from the revolution they need.

Asia is very diverse. It’s been awhile since I’ve been there but it’s still my impression that Japanese and South Korean laborers are better off than their American counterparts. The Chinese obviously have it much worse. India and Bangladesh are so chaotic reform only seems possible locally and probably with bloodshed. I know pretty much nothing about Indonesia and the Philippines.

Honestly, I have no idea what kind of ****storm could be kicked off.

What do you think could happen?

And it's like who are we to judge with an undemocratic election of an authoritarian buffoon like Trump

But, you know, I truly believe for humanitarian reasons that trade deals should require a minimum amount of worker rights that benefit labor, not the elites and private sectors of nations

Do you believe that Trump’s trade war offers that?

or maybe they’ll bust up what’s left of the steel workers union and replace them with free slave labor from our overflowing prisons

Maybe teachers should leave questionable dating advice to the parents.

Even worse than the headline reads.

Quote:

"If your boyfriend says bad things to you and/or treats you wrong, that means he's acting like a n1gger. You all should not be dating all these different African-American boys because they are not worth it."

"If my daughter was dating someone who used the 'f' word, I wouldn't have any respect for that n1gger".

Yep

The public schools in Florida have turned another person’s brain into an omelette.

I wonder what pills he was popping before making those special little soliloquys.

Armed Man Holding 3 Hostages At Yountville Veterans Home « CBS Sacramento

Wtf man. My friend's aunt is one of the hostages. We're all watching this closely, it sounds personal. My bf also works at a state facility and got some info that there was a going away party planned for today, and the suspect kept three hostages while letting the rest go. Swat is on the scene but there's not much else info yet.

Edit: the hostages are the director of the center's PTSD program, a psychologist, and a clinical worker who all treated and released the suspect two weeks ago.
