The issue with Walmart isn’t DEI, it’s the fact that in nine states alone, Walmart had 14,500 employees on SNAP and 10,350 on Medicaid.
Instead of attacking corporations for diversity, equity, and inclusion initiatives, people should be calling out the low wages.
Its cool that the party who won't shut up about how America is run by shadow billionaire elites voted for the billionaire elite stacking the government with his billionaire elite buddies
The Taliban has issued a decree banning Afghan women from hearing each other’s voices.
The Taliban’s minister for the “propagation of virtue and prevention of vice” (I.e. the Taliban’s “morality police”) said,
“When women are not permitted to call takbir or athan [Islamic call to prayer], they certainly cannot sing songs or music . . . . Even when an adult female prays and another female passes by, she must not pray loudly enough for them to hear . . . . they aren’t even permitted to hear [each other’s] voices while praying, let alone for anything else.”
This new law marks another intensification of the Taliban’s draconian suppression of women into nobodyhood.
The reason they keep women from hearing each other, communicating, experiencing sound, music, laughter and joy is to keep them subdued, isolated, without personhood, and increasingly amenable to total erasure.
How much longer can we ignore these regimes treating women as less than cattle - which despite having no basic rights, still enjoy the right to see, to feel, to make noise, and to be heard? Are our women really less than this?
They are firebombing ballot drop boxes, electioneering and yelling at polling locations, stealing ballots from testing sites, while pulling a machete on Harris voters, and Trump is screaming and yelling that Democrats are cheating.
This is MAGA.

Three words: tax the rich.
I keep hearing that I shouldn’t let politics interfere with friendships.
Motherfucker, if you think 11 million immigrants need to be rounded up and put in camps, we are not going to be friends.
@Spangled_blonde@SarahIronside6 Increased attorney representation in auto accidents is driving costs up more than undocumented immigrants. Also, uninsured/underinsured coverage exists (and is paid for) to handle this very thing.
