Welcome to c/news! Please read the Hexbear Code of Conduct and remember... we're all comrades here.
Rules:
-- PLEASE KEEP POST TITLES INFORMATIVE --
-- Overly editorialized titles, particularly if they link to opinion pieces, may get your post removed. --
-- All posts must include a link to their source. Screenshots are fine IF you include the link in the post body. --
-- If you are citing a twitter post as news please include not just the twitter.com in your links but also nitter.net (or another Nitter instance). There is also a Firefox extension that can redirect Twitter links to a Nitter instance: https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/addon/libredirect/ or archive them as you would any other reactionary source using e.g. https://archive.today/ . Twitter screenshots still need to be sourced or they will be removed --
-- Mass tagging comm moderators across multiple posts like a broken markov chain bot will result in a comm ban--
-- Repeated consecutive posting of reactionary sources, fake news, misleading / outdated news, false alarms over ghoul deaths, and/or shitposts will result in a comm ban.--
-- Neglecting to use content warnings or NSFW when dealing with disturbing content will be removed until in compliance. Users who are consecutively reported due to failing to use content warnings or NSFW tags when commenting on or posting disturbing content will result in the user being banned. --
-- Using April 1st as an excuse to post fake headlines, like the resurrection of Kissinger while he is still fortunately dead, will result in the poster being thrown in the gamer gulag and be sentenced to play and beat trashy mobile games like 'Raid: Shadow Legends' in order to be rehabilitated back into general society. --

i did about 4-5 years full time as a young idealist. i was underpaid, ripped off, exploited, and did lots of dangerous shit. got real lucky to not be injured. it still head and shoulders above what happens to the trafficked and adjacent migrant workers brought in by brokers and contract housed. nobody assaulted me, nobody could take away my documents or steal personal belongings from me with impunity with a phone call to La Migra. labor aristocracy compared to the prison work gangs and furlough programs of angola.
but just from the long hours in the heat for absolutely dogshit pay, all that liberal indoctrination against political, mob violence i grew up immersed in, oozed from my pores and evaporated away in the oppressive south georgia sunshine.
i realized in my bones the people running this system deserve everything waiting for them.
GOOD post
