Tipping is optional but in the US many tipped employees are making $2.35/hr. They're paid a minimum of min wage after tips, but their tips first have to cover them to minwage

Judging the Catholic church for continually welding it's power to shield child abusers but doing little more than virtue signaling and token optics on genocide.

If the Pope gave a shit, he'd have gone himself and done something about it. WWJD?

Y'all can look around and see how little human life is valued. It's not about humans, it's about them and only them.

He isn't considering it. He's already made the decision

What is the relation between someone speeding in their car and a professor using a bad set of course materials?

Your analogy doesn't really establish any causal or relational links. Both subjects are victims of America's capital-dominated power structure?

Sure better decisions can be made, but how much can you blame the subject under duress? How much blood can you reasonably expect the parent or teacher to draw from the stone? At what cost of their health?

In my experience professors are heavily overworked and heavily underpaid. Offloading work onto other systems to get a better work-life balance seems like a natural response.

Ah yeah let's take every isreali official at their word.

Not that I doubt it.

It's okay! The UN has recently declared this a genocide! I'm sure after 5 more years of rhetoric, 3 voting periods, 2 years of silence, and another year of logistics, they'll do something!

Migrant workers that can't leave, are packed in like sardines, are paid starvation wages if at all, and that drop like flies.

Slavery hasn't been eradicated, but enhanced in the modern era

Mm yeah, the issue is devs and their micro services and not their bosses demanding they pull every fractional cent out of every iota of the customer and their data.

I was referencing people I know. They're normal fans that have a bit of merch and hide behind the "it's my childhood" defense. Not terribly parasocial about it, but they're furries. I think it's more just the "God given American right" to believe that you're in a protected, soft little bubble and none of your actions have consequences.

What is it if not a landgrab? A pit Putin can throw the next generation of russians into? A blow to Putin's pride that he refuses to accept?
