This is what Germany in 1929 was - without social media.

Boeing's long and storied past is just that: past. Boeing today is nothing like Boeing before the merger. Like all capitalist organizations, they've hollowed out the mine of reputation for short term bonuses given to the 1% and in doing so have sold off the company's biggest asset - it's name - and its association with safety and safely designed and built aircraft.

The part that really sucks is when Boeing inevitably implodes and files Ch 11 it will leave Airbus a monopoly on passenger aircraft.

LOL!!! I actually had to look that up. I'm so glad they're finally hauling is carcass off to a real prison.

I wish this surprised me.

It does not.

It does explain a good deal about how Thomas comports himself, his righteous entitlement, his insatiable greed, and his willingness to be a moral Gumby doll.

One step closer to the abyss.

The United States of America used to be thought of as an ideal, an aspiration. Now? It's a shithole backwater filled with toothless grins and guns that anyone with a sane mind wants to avoid like the plague. The USA is the punchline to the joke: "What happens when you give an AK-47 to a chimp?"

I'll say the quiet part out loud: working people of the 1st, 2nd, and 3rd world are done with being infinitely replaceable cogs in oligarch's profit machines. They've taken our lives and given nothing back. Now it's time for us to return the treatment.

  • Defund corporate welfare and force the shareholder/billionaire class pay for the environmental, mental and physical harm they do
  • Disallow government paid medical research that is then sold back to us by the shareholder/billionaire class at extortionate prices
  • Dismantle government apparatuses that serve not the people but the shareholder/billionaire class

Nice rhetoric.

Now go out and burn down a gas station. Burn down a drug testing lab. Burn down a police bunker. We, as human beings not blessed with generational wealth or outrageously favourable growing environments, have to act - not bitch and complain. The time for talk is at an end. Talk is what the shareholder/billionaire class want us to do to distract us from their theft of our future and our hope.

We've tried playing by the rules. Except the shareholder/billionaire class makes up the rules and changes them to suit their desires.

Make our own rules - fair, equitable, unbiased, and reject the rules invented and enforced by the shareholder/billionaire class to keep us in line and their hoarding legal. -

When I see these posts I always think of the movie "12 Monkeys". After the inevitable revolution of the unequal (when all the billionaire's brains have been eaten with a nice Chianti and fava beans) people will look back and wonder where it all started. I hope it's discernible, for the historical record.

LOL, the pigs fuck up, the state shuts up and the taxpayers pay up.

Local media have reported that Jaswal resigned from the police force in 2022

The assault(s?) took place in 2011 - he was an active pig for eleven years after the reported crime he committed. What are the odds the assault was the only crime.

Boebert faces first election Tuesday since switching districts and the ~~vaping scandal~~ hand-job scandal with her exhibitionist-in-front-of-underage-girl-husband.
FTFY, but you might need a smaller font size to fit it in.

Another Con con.

First off, taxpayers fork out good money for staff researchers for all parties so what they present is factual and responsible. Unfortunately, this PC dandy didn't like, didn't want, or didn't ask for anything reality-based. Much better to use a shitty app for flawed and deceitful results to inflame the base. You know the base, the 2% of people across the country who aren't worried about fact or figures, just how they feel. Unless the feeling is empathy, then they're stone cold; dead on the inside.

Secondly, and inconveniently, it has been a historically proven fact that Cons increase deficits, lower monetary value and raise middle class taxes not to pay for expanded defence or social programs, but to make certain their election-funding mega-rich class enjoy all the perks of living in a polite society with paying one goddamn red cent for the privilege.

"Another island, Galen?"
"Yes." "Here you go. It looks like your penis is flaccid, let me get that for you"

And so on, and so on, and so on...

Think of the worshippers of fine carpentry, who drink sacramental varnish. A horrible end. But a lovely finish.
