Gathered all of my coworkers to discuss the making of a plan to undermine our management as our working conditions are horrendous. And we did come up with a proposal. If they won’t listen or the answer isn’t okay for us, we will take further action. And if that doesn’t work, we will deny them their authority and start working on our own agreed upon terms.
Gotta love a good worker uprising don’t we.
The union workers must know how to strike right
Wouldn’t be a leftist org without some infighting
Death to fucking America.
Sooner rather than later
Socdes over here launched a campaign for Palestina all of a sudden only to vote against pro Palestinian measures in parliament
Belgian football cup final was yesterday with a notorious right wing club being one of the teams. Their hooligans went into one of the more infamous Brussels migrant areas and started beating people up.
A left wing protest of 20 people gets tracked with drones and stuff but this could happen, because why??? Some of those who burn crosses etc
Anyway last week was May Day and Vijay Prashad gave a nice speech at our rally. Afterwards I went to check the socdem speech and it was all ‘they are taking your pensions and your rights blah blah’ and I was like ‘who is they? You’re in the government man’
Anyone think there is a reason they’re reopening Alcatraz? Sure, drumpf saw it on TV or what not but I am now thinking of the reasons a offshore black-site near San Fran could offer.
Then again, there’s probably a couple of black-sites all over the country, so what’s the point of this big, shiny one outside of a huge city? Intimidation? My mind went to it being a convenient way to do mass deportations by shipping them down if they can’t get air-access or other concerns (cheaper/more could be deported by boat)…except only 300 something could be held there at a time.
What is the actual point of this? Is this genuinely an “idiot” moment?
Maybe it’s demoralization? Look at me, I’m reopening a huge prison near your liberal city and there’s nothing you can do about it.
"Amongst the flowers I
am alone with my pot of wine
drinking by myself; then lifting
my cup I asked the moon
to drink with me, its reflection
and mine in the wine cup, just
the three of us; then I sigh
for the moon cannot drink,
and my shadow goes emptily along
with me never saying a word."
anyone kinda worried about india-pakistan spat turning hotter?
thanks britain for royally fucking the world
I have some fear about it, but then, I also have fears about a lot of things. In general, it feels hard to muster much headspace for it with everything else going on in the world. Plus like, I don’t even really understand it and I don’t want to do a bothsidesism unfairly, so there’s not much for me to do with the information coming out about it.
Gringo pope is an hilarious outcome at this point in time, anyone knows anything about him?
A maga pope could cause some serious fractures within the latin american catholic base.
Wikipedia said he defended pedophiles
thats prob true for every single catholic church fella
To the absolute shock of nobody
Cuban Telegrams are having mixed reactions for this pope. Looks like we will have to wait and see what could be discovered out of this new pope…
There’s nothing funnier than going into an unpopular opinion thread and then seeing people get mad at a take they don’t agree with
I hope you all have a nice week :D
Have a good one! ❤️
The OG one of these
SCREAMS IN ANGUISH
you too oppo!
Shoutout depression, that shit is kicking my fucking ass right now
Mine too, comrade 😞
same
I’m more of an anxiety enjoyer myself but it does suck when it kicks in seemingly out of nowhere
But we can make it through 💪🏼
I am sorry you’re experiencing anxiety, it’s quite draining. This isn’t my first rodeo, so I have reached out to the necessary friends/doctors before it goes south south. We gunna make it <333
The Dutch union seems to be in absolute shambles due to infighting. We have that too but it just stays private.
What’s happening?
I heard that the directors quit and were replaced by an interim board of directors in March, only for them the quit yesterday.
hasan collabing with yet another western leftist lmao
While Hasan Piker isn’t perfect on Palestine, I feel like he gets too much unfair criticism from the left
His fans have completely lost me. It’s another Vaush cult. Nothing against you, just a lot I’ve met really, really are the epitome of “hear no evil, see no evil”
Exactly, all I"ve really do is make “content”, and not really push anybody more left.
