Ooh, yeah, that’s a nice phone…

Especially in this economy of runaway corporate greed, we need a meaningful increase in wages revolution to eliminate those corporations and the systemic rewarding of greed.

The fact that they could increase wages and still make money while improving society but don’t, is why they don’t deserve any more benefit of the doubt, or room to continue hoarding wealth and power as they are, because a system that craves constant growth at any cost will never stop on its own (nor provide paths for reform).

My uncle had the Nokia 9110, it was incredible for its time, and definitely contributed to me wanting a phone with a full keyboard haha

I’m in this meme, and your addition, and I don’t like it. 😑

Those were such exciting phones, coming from a Nokia.

Nokia made them too! I had the N97 for a good while… Also still have it in a drawer somewhere lol

But let’s be honest, the gifts are only higher in value because other PMs didn’t declare what they were getting!

The longer you keep pretending he’s any better than any of the others, the harder the reality will smack you in the face when/if you’re eventually willing to acknowledge it - Starmer is in politics to serve Starmer.

It wasn’t included, because, just as the replies here show, elections are not about improving society, but instead are nothing but a popularity contest designed and orchestrated to keep the public distracted while those who exploit and oppress us continue to do so uninterrupted.

The public’s continued participation is the continued legitimisation of the process. Getting you riled up to vote “team ____ no matter who”, making you feel like you’re part of a team, that’s just part of the cult indoctrination, and the harder you deny it works on your “team” just as much as it does on the other, the stronger it’s obviously working on you.

Their rules are made up by them to keep themselves at the top, stop obeying their self appointed authority, they don’t care about you, nor the planet.

At least you’re self aware… ¯\_(ツ)_/¯

At least the bear can’t use a keyboard and thus wouldn’t be able to try and bully me into shutting up on the internet, so there’s another instance where I’d choose a bear over a random man.

Absolute mood.

On the one hand definitely oh no.

On the other hand - phew, I’ve already taken the garbage out… ¯\_(ツ)_/¯

It’s called Lewis’ law: “Comments on any article about feminism justify the existence of feminism”

There is no escape… 😑

(I mean, there is as far as blocking them all, but you still know they’re there, crawling all over and invading every space that exists)

There is no absolute right and absolute wrong to gender equality

Except there absolutely is an absolute right and absolute wrong to gender equality (and more importantly, equity) - the genders are either equal or they’re not. You’ve either achieved equality, or you haven’t. You either want equality, or you don’t.

And you clearly don’t.

Lie to yourself and make up as much pseudo scientific nonsense as you like, but it won’t change that you’re just another wilfully ignorant self serving misogynist who is wrong. ¯\_(ツ)_/¯

It isn’t about what an individual’s in or out groups are, it’s about what they are in society at large, and the power imbalance between them.

Calls for J.D. Vance to resign

Lmfao, good luck with that, guy is on the power trip of his life, and the only way to be rid of someone like him is by force.

Same to you!

They’re in the business of making money, simple as.

I suppose it’s possible they won’t make a pig’s ear of it and that the two-ish party rigidity of our system could be broken

You mean it’s supposedly possible that the media won’t start an even worse smear campaign in continued and unrelenting defence of said system… I wouldn’t hold your breath…

I don’t know where you live, but for example

19% provide only private care, with no NHS, and a further 14% said they worked predominantly (over 75% of their time) in private care. Only 15% of responding dentists are fully NHS, with no private care, and a further 27% said they worked predominantly (over 75% of their time) in NHS care.

And I’m sure the numbers are similar or worse in every country where a capitalist government is running a pseudo-social service. Because they’re still more concerned about the bottom line than they are about your wellbeing, so they’ve sold large chunks of the service off, and us poors who can’t afford to go private have to put up with a deliberately underfunded, sub standard service.

Either way, you’re not getting the top notch selfless service you think you are.
