in the sense that there will be things like that where 'new' farming opportunities will rise and will likely increase the diversity of available crops? Sure.

In the sense that those benefits would need to outweigh the whole 'islands that people live on literally being swallowed by the sea' aspect? Nah.

Tea Party doesn't have one, but they do have candidates, which is where BLM should go.

And as an added bonus, getting candidates elected forces the media to take the movement more seriously.

The brave little girl statute really does own though imo. The corporate backstory is impotent compared to its obvious anti-capitalist imagery. It shows how deluded these wallstreet freaks really are if they think that statue will resonate primarily as a bourgeois feminist piece.

A child standing up in pitiful defiance of rampaging capitalism. She's an unmistakably anti-capitalist figure and I hope they keep her up forever. Better yet, I hope people idealize her and riot when they take away. And then they put her back and all of the Wallstreet goblins resent her presence.

I like it when corporate tokenism fails in an attempt to sound cool and comes across as vaguely racist. Really shows that they only care about minorities as potential customers.

today's google doodle



Hey, fanart of that one Kelly comic.



It's like a coexist bumper sticker was anthropomorphised. It's basically woke.jpg; the most complex social issue in the world given a watered down "hey, you should get along and stuff" solution. The artist and google give each other pats on the back for basically taking the ideas guy role on race and blame the rest of the world for not following through.

I'm sure someone tumblr has already figured out why the the tokenism isn't perfect and has posted a massive rant about how one of the characters is problematic or their group isn't represented.

My running theory is they come from the same factory but they meddle with the sugar content or some poo poo like that.

Probably. That's the way it usually works.

There are food companies that, instead of selling to the general public, make their living churning out generic products and then package and label them for clients looking to resell them, modifying the quality or recipe based on their needs.

They're both loving awful. Jimmy Johns made workers sign a non-compete clause. Papa John complained that giving his workers healthcare would raise the price of every pizza pie by like $0.40, and was accused of wage theft multiple times. Also Papa John doesn't have any lips. Seriously, look at his face; he's creepy as gently caress.

It's some of the most overpriced pizza I've ever eaten, how can they not afford to pay their workers or for their healthcare?

Well, they could instead make references to obscure poo poo, but expecting the people that haven't seen it to put forth any effort just to get a reference is foolish in tyool2017. Or they could skip the references and become good reporters, but again that would require effort that nobody is either capable of or willing to do these days.
