Not to mention numerous Black Panthers, civil rights leaders, many others killed. The state knows that assassination can work.

People often talk about going back in time to kill baby Hitler. By all measures Trump would like to be a new Hitler and his most fervent supporters see him as that. Is it surprising people would support such an action to stop him?

This is an A-Lister commie board, we have Ryan Gosling too!

Edit: whoops I thought this was a hexbear post but my point stands, less commie though

Thats what I'm confused about, if they have staff to run it all the time, why would they schedule people like this except to make their lives more miserable? I do know bosses love that though.

Edit: Someone pointed out people don't want to work only the swing shift or night, so they schedule like this to keep full crews, I guess that makes sense but it still sucks

We must make ISPs a public service owned by the people. Who can argue that internet isn't essential to being a regular member of society? These companies rob us and use their monopolies to manipulate us.

It's weird the parents that are complicit in this, like how do they justify it in their mind? I had a girlfriend in high school whose mom encouraged her to post risque photos online in 8th grade, taking photos of her with her thong out posing seductively etc, she wanted her daughter to be hot. Maybe the parents are trying to relive their youth vicariously.

But you are right, worse than the random parents encouraging this, the platforms knowingly encourage this sexualization of children because they know the ad revenue it can generate.

Google Music did this back in the day, I lost versions of tracks that I couldn't find anywhere again, infuriating.

Numerous places I've lived had contracts with Comcast so there was no option but them, and the speed is shit, maybe they needed to raise prices to pay for their forced monopolies.

From the reports I've heard by amateur youtubers, those dumb face thumbnails actually do get them more traction

It's an opinion piece, they start out with their claim and try to back it up, it's not a news article, what is the problem?
