Bring this pathetic colonizer to its knees Mr. trump!

Worse, he's the pathetic dumb nerd. No not the overly horny nerd one. Okay wait maybe he is the horny one, but not that one. He's the one who owns a comic shop but he's also pathetic because he owns a comic shop. Don't you know girls never read comics. Also his comic shop operates like no comic shop ever, a product of being written by people who have never been in comic book shop, and just wanted some free advertising from Warner and Disney for throwing slop advertising on the screen.

Edit oh God it was a fake news post

Oh god Chuck Schumer and the Bailey's. His fictional long island family.

You are so right about liberals believing in there being a "correct" position. Everytime I get woke scolded on Reddit for trying remain consistent with my ideology it's some liberal angry that my position would alienate a certain percentage of the potential audience or voter pool or whatever. Well or it's a conservative Nazis who literally just wants to punish everyone they feel deserves it; of course the liberals will defend their right to say that, curious they never defend me though.

Ding ding, and let's not forget that managers are expected to work even more hours. Usually I see retail managers working over 60 hours a week. Granted it does spare your body because you get a chair and paperwork to deal with rather than back breaking lifting and hauling and walking constantly.

But most get to a supervisor position and get shit canned because they pissed off someone in corporate or they just can't move beyond there because typically only college degrees get to manage a store or move on to corporate.

I work retail and make 22 bucks an hour. It's fine. I get by with assistance from a partner. I don't think I'll ever own a house.

But there's no way in hell you ever get 48 hours. You can't get 38 hours. Hell I'm lucky if I get 30 hours. I do get benefits. Because we have union.

48 hours a week retail will break your body. You're either standing not moving at all and that fucks you. Or youre stocking shelves with giant ass heavy shit bending down to uncomfortable stances and ruining your knees, back, shoulders and probably something else. It is not an easy job physically.

I hadn't heard they'd accused china of it. I know they accused the Soviets of it during WW2, while it has been a rampant problem in the west for centuries, because capitalist man always tries to make more money any place they can.

Capitalist efficiency in action I see. Now we just need a couple filled with sawdust to save on cost and we'll be operating at peak efficiency. Because we need to make sure the defense contractors are maximizing their profits first and foremost right?

Yeah, I made the candies look more shiny with red lead dust, so what if your kids keep dying?

I think it's more a horizon zero dawn scenario, where they modernize the military with drones and AI until there's a bug in the code, and oops our killer bots have wiped out the biosphere. When the only reason the killer bots were being used was for corporations to wage minor wars against each other in the pursuit of increasingly smaller ecological niches.

Yeah but have you considered that Biden was such an amazing leader that he completely restor-- I'm being told he fell down the stairs complaining about corn Cob again.

sure right after we get the line up a little bit higher. Maybe in 3 or 4 decades, you know after I'm dead and buried.

Probably in my late teens. My parents were pretty dull meat and potatoes type. My dad never spoke about politics and my mum was fervently anti communist (and to this day refuses to believe communism can ever work, just look at the Soviet union and china! Oh china is only beating us now because they're becoming more capitalist!) so I was pretty conservative or libertarian. Because you know no world experience. I distinctly remember super hating green arrow in the justice League unlimited cartoon when I was like 18. Oh a big leftie who wants government to help people? What a joke of a hero!

Thankfully working and participating in a union, getting a degree in history from professors that seemed fairly liberal but not really in favour of capitalism or communism. Also my major concentration in history was military history (such a cliche I know sorry) but specifically ended up with lots of classes on the Soviet Union. Which made me more amenable to seeing other sides of coin. Learning that much of the popular western tropes about Soviet participation in the war were utter fabrications really helped introduce me to the concept that the west was desperately trying to reframe history around how the Soviets were incompetent and only won because the west was so awesome.

Disillusionment with Obama becoming a complete joke of a president, not accomplishing much of anything and the discovery pseudo left gaming spaces online helped guide me further towards things while I also fell into the Chapo subreddit and was introduced to how leftists are always right and we need to become communists or else everything is fucked. I think the west wing thing podcast helped alot as well.
