I think the most fucked up part about this is you know the restaurant employees (the ones who actually do the work during these surges) won't see a cent of this extra profit and 100% of it will go straight to the shareholders and executives.

lmao "modern police aren't exactly identical to police in the 1870s, therefore we rate this mixed"

Patrols in the northern U.S. also became useful for breaking up labor strikes before they became too destructive (Marxist political historian Eric Hobsbawm referred to the mechanisms of violence and destruction of property to agitate for better working conditions as "collective bargaining by riot") and these services became increasingly utilized as the country became more populated and conditions simultaneously grew more difficult for the United States' restive economic underclasses.

Once class traitors, always class traitors. acab

I've just been reporting these messages as spam. Didn't ask for them, don't want them.

Or more to the point, he didn't even try to hurt anyone else, and there's indisputable video evidence proving it.

How do we know Marx wasn't a Greek god? Have we seen Marx and Greek gods in the same room? curious-marx

Also if you don't have a discount code: sign up, put some items in a cart, and leave it for a few days. I got a "Are you abandoning this project? Take 10% OFF your cart" email after doing this for a project I was researching.

One of the cops in the video says "we need fire extinguishers, not guns" like even this cop's colleagues thought he was being a dumbass.

the respect of the meme community

Also the memes he reposts are garbage so he's not even good at that.

His comments on reddit seem pretty based otherwise. One of his comments wrt ideology:

I would say if I have to work with non-anarchists, I would rather work with less ideologically committed folks than with dogmatic adherents of any hierarchical ideology. The “I just think social services and wealth redistribution is neat” social democrat is better (in some ways at least) than the “THE PROLETARIAT WILL BE SAVED BY THE VICTORY OF MY IDEOLOGICALLY PURE PARTY” ML. By the same token, the casual “I just like reading Lenin” ML can be better than the “Revolution is an immature and uncivilized idea, capitalism is the best system actually and just needs a few tweaks” social democrat. The difference lies in the potential for the less ideologically committed individuals to participate in anarchistic tactics and be radicalized in a libertarian direction.

I think if he had a few more years he would have probably cooled off on the ML hate, even if he wouldn't have become an ML himself. We all figure these things out at our own paces.
