It would be, but is that what’s happening?

The article seemed to mention men and women, but nothing to do with race apart from the headline.

Headline leaning into the culture wars a bit there, isn’t it?

I’d fully expect a program like this to favour white men given they make up the majority of the armed forces. It’s called maths. Or “math” I guess, in America.

If Israel wanted to commit a genocide in Palestine, they could literally carpet bomb the entire place in a day and be done with it.

It’s because I didn’t go on a rant about capitalism.

My point is that slowing down the heating of the planet is doable (though you’d need the majority of the world contributing, which is highly unlikely to happen), but we can’t reverse the damage that has already been done, which some people seem to think is possible.

We’re not as powerful as we think we are.

Do people seriously think we could “reverse” climate change?

That’s not how the climate works.

You can go on a protest whenever you want. Don’t expect your employers to be enthusiastic about it if you organise one in your workplace, however.

Lol, what?

You represent your employers at work, not every waking hour.

I’m sorry that the facts don’t fit your narrative. It must be frustrating.

It’s literally how employment works. Unless you’re self-employed, you represent the people who pay you.

If you work for a company, you’re a representative of that company. If you disagree with the businesses they work with, don’t work for that company.

Or if you really have a problem and want to express yourself, don’t do it at your workplace. It’s stupid.

Why would you organise this on company headquarters without the consent of the company?

If you tell your employers that you hate the way they operate, what do you think is going to happen?

I’m so glad we don’t get campaign spam like this in the UK.

I remember people going crazy about it when Apple introduced it, and then I saw a video of it in action and was like, “is that it?”.

Is this that “capture what you’re doing” app?

I don’t believe people would use that for nefarious means. No way!

Because e-ink displays are a lot better to read books on than a phone screen.

Those were the days. 🥲

I’ve used Feedly for years and it makes keeping with various types of news so much easier.

Anytime a website throws this nonsense at me, I immediately go elsewhere.

I’m going to show this post to anyone who asks me what Lemmy is like.
