I haven’t had a day off in 3 years. I have to skip meals because I can’t afford to eat. I work two minimum wage jobs because that’s all I’m qualified for. I’m college educated. This isn’t how this was supposed to end up. If you don’t marry wealthy or have generational wealth, you are poverty4life
I'm sure you have, they just didn't tell you. An old friend of mine, a transwoman, grew up in a town of 500, and most who grew up with her would probably say the same as you, having no idea they grew up with and lived next door to one.
But still a valid observation. It's the lack of visibility and representation that make us easy targets. It's the fact that no one knows any of us, or anything about our existence that makes it easy to "other" us.
It's more about the fact that you are just people like them, and this is just a huge distraction from the 1% emptying our pockets with unregulated housing markets, price gouging, and Hannibal Lecter level of psychopathic private Healthcare insurance corporation greed.
I should've probably started with "I'm a cis woman and been misgendered since I was a kid".
So, yeah, there is no doubt they can't tell the difference. They only care because they were instructed and groomed to hate and fear anyone "different".
If they actually created something, they have the associated rights.
But I’ve worked closely with a number of CEOs. They are merely the senior most executive. There are countless replacements waiting in the wings with the exact same skillset.
CEOs do no labor and produce no value. Thus, they should be compensated with zero pay. Pretty simple.
The problem is the dingdong who owns his own lawnmowing company (popular among dinguses) and also does the mowing (aka actual labor) thinks of himself as equivalent to health insurance CEO.
So let’s say you cut the pay of any CEO, take your pick. How much money makes it to the pocket of each employee as an increase on average? For Walmart, that’s about $13 per year, per employee. $27 million total comp for 2.1 million employees.
So what?
It's ok to overpay them because they can't pay decent wages to 2.1 million employees?
What kind of backwards pro-corporate thinking is that?
This is not how reality works, and 300 millions Americans agree on this.
300 million Americans don’t agree on this. The amount of compensation of a CEO has no bearing on what determines the pay of an employee. Are all 2.1 million employees not paid a decent wage at Walmart or only some?
Youre not wrong, Chat GPT if you ask it specifially will tell you theres a major difference between this care and gender affirming care for trans ppl but it wont get specific on what that major difference is lol
People who consume only rightwing madness disguised as news are thoroughly convinced this is a widespread problem, and there is no talking them back from the edge.
Remarkable how an allegedly civilised country can get its priorities so profoundly muddled. I’m sure I’ll be hearing next week how unisex toilets are being abolished along with running water.
It’s said societies have a choice between socialism and barbarism and America has been picking straight barbarism for decades with austerity and privatization.
I was going to say the apple doesn't fall far from the tree because she's Gwyneth's daughter and then I remembered she's named Apple and I hate puns. I hate everything about that clip. Rich people are 🤢.
This is literally what they signed up for. Just to ruin the lives of people they don't like, they supported the most corrupt group of lying billionaires to ever hit DC.
If only Kamala worked on lowering the price far ALL diabetics, but the pharmaceutical companies threatened to no longer donate so she said fuck the rest of diabetics. This is fact that never gets talked about.
Thankfully that mother of two from Florida was held on $100K bond. On an unrelated note, did anyone hear about the two young men that were stabbed in Manhattan the day after that CEO got shot
One of them survived?
The survivor gave a detailed description of the three attackers?
Anyone?

But their pay is absurd. Their golden parachutes even more so.
I managed 1,500 employees. I know it quite well.
Any windfall always went to our own bonuses for that very reason. If we gave regular employees their cut, they’d be insulted.

You sure countless replacements will wait to be the next target?
So theyre trying to make their most common cosmetic surgery illegal to own the trans ppl.
This is no longer OUR country, its theirs. We lost.
Most people are good people, and will not take the streets and set fire just for fun.
BLM was not just for fun and for looting.
BLM was just a tiny rehearsal compared to what's coming.
It's the ruling class that is f*cked!
Is there a smaller demographic the republicans could have set their sites on for a distraction?
OAN, anybody have guidance on whether cat or dog food offers greater human nutrition? Asking for... well, you know.
Also, looking for guidance on the best brand of pitchfork.
amateur swimming competition held at pool that could be built someday and maybe host a swim meet.
damaged by the lies they gloss,
truth bears heavy cost.
I got intoa fight in tolouse once... Do not speak french.. the staff were polite enough to speak to me in english. I did lose the fight after all.
Those fuckers on the right sure hand a big CURVEBALL with the death or the murderous United CEO.
Now the focus is on something that actually matters, HEALTHCARE, versus banning books, hating immigrants, or bullying trans people.
For the population to unite, the bigots needs to snap out of their transphobia psychosis, and understand who the real enemy is.
Reminder that the dems never move left after a loss, so this is now the best you can possibly expect from them.
