I’ll never understand how lobbying became a thing. It should have been shut down as anti democracy the second it was proposed

Nah I’m just gonna leave this instance and go to one where I don’t see you pedantic pricks
So you’re butthurt that people tried to make it a legitimate conversation?
Jesus Christ lemmy has some fuckin morons
Because my roommates dumbass mother keeps waking me up after 5 hours of sleep and I’m too livid to fall back asleep
What fucking comparison are you looking for?
The rest of the public has been manipulated by oil barons who constantly push these fear mongering talking points.
It is safer in every way.
You act like Homer Simpson is real and that’s how nuclear power plants operate. In the modern age unless it’s just gross incompetence it’s been safer for decades.
Oh and if you want those safety regulations to ever get better you have to keep putting money into them. You’re not gonna get progress by ignoring them.
In fact that’s the only reason nuclear power isn’t more prevalent because the average citizen is so blinded by oil propaganda they refuse anything to do with it.
That’s why we call it “late stage” capitalism.
Because the environmental damage caused by the largest nuclear disasters in history is still nothing like the damage from fossil fuels.
Not just that but the fossil fuel industry’s history is full of much worse disasters than any nuclear plant.
If you were to truly compare them based just off safety it’s no contest. Nuclear power is cleaner and safer
One of the presidents of the US did it regularly and he never got shot for it.
The kids only real crime was being too drunk to understand what was going on.
Looking at this image while scrolling past it almost looked like a chewed up Pepsi can lmao
He’s a terrible person and when he dies may he rot in piss.
I’d care about him going senile if him being sane wasn’t as detrimental as it was.
Empathy is a good thing but let’s save it for the people who actually deserve it and not old ass racist pieces of shit like him
They should focus on leaving the country
That’s literally all you said…
Ah yes it’s making Russia so much money which is why their economy is in perfect condition and the ruble is worth more than ever!
Yes because that’s the easiest solution for people enduring violent oppression.
“jUsT lEaVe!!11!”
Yep it’s that simple. Forget your lives forget your families forget making where you live a better place JUST LEAVE! 🤓
Ah yes protests against the rich have never been useful before
The difference is the employer has inherent power by being a money providing service as well as providing whatever other service/product they provide.
When you employ that many people the power naturally rises to the top. That’s why we need legislature to prevent that massive gap in power. Of course no one at the top will support this but the needs of the many outweigh the few regardless of how much money they have.
Remember corporate bailouts? “wE bAiLeD tHeM oUt BeCaUsE tHeY pRoViDe JoBs!!!”
Then there were mass layoffs.
People who defend corporations as if they’re actually people
People who defend the notion that corporations are people.
It’s the same in my state but unemployment is only a fraction of what you made hourly
That’s why I brought up a restructuring. The ability to quit whenever should always be an option but being fired without notice for anything that isn’t just gross incompetence/negligence should not. I should be able to quit because my manager pissed me off. I shouldn’t get fired because I pissed the manager off.
Because that’s exactly what it is. It’s a way for the rich to force the policies they want while quelching any policies they don’t.
