I timestamped it at the relevant clip, but I HIGHLY recommend watching the rest as well! 😁

60% of the time, it works every time.

Mandatory or not, a past committing genocide and being taught to see people of a certain nationality as inherently subhuman while going all in on DARVO gaslighting should still exclude you from being in charge of anything related to bigotry and hate speech.

I mean, there's plenty of clubs..

I'm not sure where you get that they're hurting for labor

It's been the trend since 2021 that fewer people are willing to accept jobs that pay ridiculously little or otherwise abuse workers.

THAT'S the kind of labor they're hurting for: the kind who are so desperate/stupid/timid/more than one of the above that they'll put up with literally anything.

companies have mostly been laying people off or outright firing them

Which is often a mistake that leads to long term lack of labor in exchange for short term share dividends.

Firing people doesn't necessary mean that those people aren't needed. In the case of the kinds of companies you're talking about, it more often means that the company is run by greedy and shortsighted idiots.

to downsize in favor of AI and automated replacements

Which is the most idiotic of it all, since the technology and systems to do so effectively don't even EXIST yet! No matter how much Silicon Valley pushes it as the miraculous solution that will make all workers superfluous, it can't actually do that. At least not yet, and hopefully not in our lifetimes.

while the CEOs pat themselves on the back with fatter pay raises for themselves

Yup!

Do tell me fellow lemming, what companies are actually hiring these days?

Many are TRYING to hire while offering pay and terms that nobody in their right mind would accept, except if forced by the consequences of oppressive laws such as this one

Guess it's option 4: couldn't afford anything else

That'd probably be awful too, leaving people having to do FAR too many jobs each, depending on how many bits we're working with..

You are free to interpret the nature of rice however you wish.

😂

Nope, no law. Just payment processors caving to puritan busybodies and in turn pressuring game stores.

It's the kind of censorship well-functioning countries have laws to prevent, laws that are actually enforced.

At least he reciprocates. That's more than you can say about many people..
