These guys will let you get mangled in an industrial accident if it would save them a quick buck.

Elon wanted safety colors removed from some warehouse/factory, because he didn't like how they looked. People got in accidents because of that.

So not even to save money. They'll risk your life just for aesthetics.

The Johnstown Flood

Rich people tampered with a dam so they could have a nicer ride.

Development included lowering the dam to make its top wide enough to hold a road for a carriageway and putting a fish screen in the spillway. Workers lowered the dam, which had been 72 feet (22 m) high, by 3 feet (0.91 m).[10] These alterations are thought to have increased the vulnerability of the dam. Moreover, a system of relief pipes and valves, a feature of the original dam which had previously been sold off for scrap, was not replaced. The club had no way of lowering the water level in the lake in case of an emergency.

Especially when the first things they do are start taking apart consumer and environmental protections, disband social safety nets, increase taxes (tariffs) on imported goods, attack FEMA, and stop farm subsidies, all of which hurt the working class.

Not only do people still believe the ridiculous lie, they believe it despite the mountain of evidence they don't give a fuck about you.

Bro we're nowhere close to bottoming out, so I hope you're ready. You'll feel it when we pass the point of no return.

Methinks that has passed, the bottom is a long way off yet, however point of no return is long gone

What tool do people use to make these images with big text? Let alone why bother generating an image where text alone would have been equally sufficient, what even causes these things to come into existence?

Also I 100% agree with the text itself

Let alone why bother generating an image where text alone would have been equally sufficient, what even causes these things to come into existence?

  1. Facebook text -> screenshot
  2. Sharing text on every platform isn't always allowed, images however...
[–] NikkiDimes@lemmy.world 9 points 4 days ago (1 children)

Stands out against raw text posts, on here, but probably originating on sites like Facebook.

[–] noxypaws@pawb.social 5 points 4 days ago

Yeah that seems like some Facebook shit

[–] rational_lib@lemmy.world 4 points 4 days ago

Because some people don't know how to copy and paste text, and other people don't discourage these posts by downvoting them.

I am on my scooter today putting up these flyers; I encourage everyone to spread the news

Just had a conversation with my mother, this afternoon, in which I tried to explain to her that Bill Gates and Warren Buffet were not working in the best interests of the country.

[–] Colonel_Panic_@lemm.ee 2 points 4 days ago* (last edited 4 days ago) (1 children)

I can't fathom how anyone could think someone is working for your best interests while simultaneously holding half our nation's entire wealth just for themselves.

If the other player in Monopoly has all the money and properties and you have nothing, do you still say they are working for your best interests? Wake up, they won the game and you lost.

(Edit: That is directed at your mom and mine and all the others that won't pay attention to reality)
