@Loricatty@Shadow_ofaDoubt Recognizing that individual mobility exists for some doesn't mean the system is fair for everyone. Individual success doesn't disprove systemic inequality.
@Loricatty@Molliekat3 Your idea only works when there are more full time jobs then people looking for jobs. In that case people between jobs or students or whoever looking for a quick buck can go for a min wage job becuase there are no other takers.What happens when people queue up for jobs at walmart
@Loricatty@Molliekat3 Min wage doesn't "magically" become living wage. It is supposed to be a living wage. Youre telling people that they they are not entitled to a living wage because some people working part time jobs aim to get better jobs or are okay with less money?
The myth of “pulling yourself up by your bootstraps” is a cruel hoax designed to convince poor people and people of color that the injustices they face are a result of their own actions, rather than an oppressive system rigged against them.
@Loricatty@Molliekat3 People aren't obligated to pay for the extravagant lifestyles of capitalists either.Capitalists are bailed out while people are supposed to pull themselves up from the bootstrap.Neoliberalism is destroying the planet and cost of living crisis is a manifestation of the same thing.
@tweed_ab@MarkJCarney 1.This isn't a muslim/non Muslim conflict. 2. Its not just Muslims, humanitarians all around the world are calling for a stop to the death and destruction the Israeli gov is engaged in for the last 3 years and continue to do so with impunity.
@tweed_ab@MarkJCarney Multiple global bodies term the Gaza conflict a genocide under int'l law:• UN Commission of Inquiry• Amnesty Int'l & FIDH• Int'l Assoc. of Genocide Scholars• Israeli group B'Tselem
@Loricatty@Shadow_ofaDoubt Now you will say trickle down economics works and billionaires create jobs. Stop defending the system that only works for a few.
@Shadow_ofaDoubt@Loricatty 🙄 tipping is not the answer, wage theft should be addressed to make a more equitable system, workers are paid min wage while execs get bonuses evey year, thats the real problem. Wealth should be distributed more equitably.
@tweed_ab@MarkJCarney ..a populations overall growth refutes genocide is legally & historically incorrect.Under intl law,genocide is defined by the intent & actions aimed @ destroying a group,not if the perpetrator successfully lowers the absolut population of an entire nation over a multi-year window
@Loricatty@Shadow_ofaDoubt Its your privilege talking, you're completely out of touch with reality. Or you are devoid of empathy, we are not animals and its not survival of the fittest. Be better.
