@Rebellious1776X @unusual_whales But why? Why do we even want to do this? Japan is an ally. There are better ways to reconcile trade disparities with allies than trying to strong man literally the entire globe.
@Plens30@Maekar1337@PaulTassi I think the sentiment behind it is that not every man looks the same and neither does every woman. Putting the trans part aside for a second, some men are slender and more feminine looking and some women are muscular and more masculine looking.
@mr_pmcbride@unusual_whales How long do you imagine that would take? Do you think the cost of opening factories is just going to be eaten by manufacturers?
@chonkrider@RinoTheBouncer Because I think the question in and of itself is pointless and I said as much. When we’ve played as gods and demi-gods for 2 of the last 3 games I just find it disingenuous for you to be raking this game over the coals about historical accuracy.
Does that make sense?
@LukasVokurka1@chonkrider@RinoTheBouncer In the very first game of the series you’re introduced to a series of objects called “pieces of Eden” that become central to the plot and the first one gives you powers of mind control and realistic illusions so right from the beginning we weren’t exactly sticking to history.
@chonkrider@RinoTheBouncer Brother, it’s ASSASSIN’S CREED. We played as the reincarnation of Odin via a fictional techno-Yggdrasil and you guys are melting down because there’s a black guy in Japan. What are we even talking about?
@TheTokenKeeper@dumboldad@unusual_whales …correct? That’s why it’s an effective pay cut to go back to the office?
This post felt like the equivalent of “Suck it up. You’re right.”
@93A4Jules@unusual_whales Equity and equality aren’t about working less; they’re about ensuring everyone has a fair shot. A 32-hour workweek isn’t about laziness—it’s about improving productivity, mental health, and quality of life, which benefit workers and employers alike.
@brandonellis_@unusual_whales Workers have agency, but it’s often limited by economic pressures. A 32-hour standard, like the 40-hour week before it, creates a fair baseline. It doesn’t remove choice; it ensures healthier options are accessible, balancing work and life for all.
