actually, according to colour theory, context matters.

I would be more than confused though ghehe

I disagree in the sense that i believe it can be interpreted multiple ways if you look at it without any context, but i do also understand it can no longer be seen as neutral because only a single group is using it. Don’t get me wrong, i’m not saying anyone should see it as neutral; but that the way you use it does define its meaning. You can use it anti-black (all lives matter = black lives aren’t worth more) or in support of black people (all lives matter = black people deserve to be safe from police-brutality just like everybody else). Same goes with the original comment, you could see it as $1000 for everybody because trans women shouldn’t get special treatment but as i believe in this case the original commenter meant if you give everybody $1000 trans people are helped by that as well. Below is an image explaining the result between equity and equality, i understand original commenter is not talking about equity for trans women. I’m defending them while understanding that difference.

All lives matter could mean a good thing, it got hijacked by right wing people who believe racism is some kind of hoax. But if I were to say for example that all lives matter which means black people deserve the same standards, black people would understand i am on their side too. The original commenter mentioning ubi (universal basic income) also signifies they are on the side of trans women (or to be more honest, minorities who find it hard to earn their living). If there would be something like ebi these women still face the same issues, but at least they can buy food and rent a home (although $1000 might not be enough in the US).

The answer to why so many animals suffer their entire life so they can be eaten afterwards.

Boobas?

I’m Dutch and we have our own of right-wing populist who doesn’t take responsibility and walks away when it doesn’t go this way. I’ve come to believe it’s not a bug but a feature of this kind of politician. A lot of loud words, no meaningful input.

800813 is right there though

Those two are not mutually exclusive, doing what Putin wants him to do in exchange for the proof of some shady thing he did not surfacing would still be for his personal benefit.

Wdym at this point? He’s been in office for over a year now

Is America Great already?

No.

Is Trump & Friends richer?

Yes.

He’s not sweating, we all know what he does.

If it is a local businesses it can give you some information. 5 stars based on 1 review? Don’t trust it. 4.9 stars based on 100 reviews, split between 25 1-star and 75 5-star reviews? Don’t trust it. But 2 businesses with believable amount of reviews one has 4.3 and other 4.7 stars? I’ll definitely check out the 4.7 one first.

Aside from one or two exceptions there is no overlap between these two groups

Edit: nvm, i did read ftfy but not the comment you responded to and believed you quoted the original comment.

Just fyi, for a while now the guillotine has been on the side of the masses and not on the side of the 1%, as such the guillotine doesn’t give that option.

Suddenly you’ve put this news in a whole other perspective for me:

How to Quiet Quit Your Job (Without Getting Fired)

• Step 1 Stop doing any tasks that aren’t in your job description.
• Step 2 Stop showing up early to work and only arrive on time.
• Step 3 Stop staying late in the office and leave on time.
• Step 4 Refuse office communications outside of working hours.
• Step 5 Don’t take work home with you.
• Step 6 Don’t attend non-mandatory meetings or social work functions.

My opinion, only quit if you a) can do those things and b) want to extract value aside from money during the time you spend working.
