It's a shame we still have corporate slavery where workers aren't allowed to find different jobs and are instead forced to labor in conditions they personally feel are unhealthy.

Did you know you can look for a job while still holding one? Some people even work two at the same time!

I also like the idea someone would apply and presumably interview for a job at a smoking restaurant/bar then show up to work day one and be shocked the people that were there weren't actors and in fact people smoke there.

I would like to move to your world where people take jobs for the sheer fun of it, as opposed to working wherever you can because it's that or literally starve on the street

I mean it's not like the two options you present are the only objectively true, possible motivations anyone could ever have for wanting to use their wealth to buy their kids a better future.

I don't disagree that people have used the nebulous "quality of education" to cover for racist impulses. I don't disagree that wealth and racism are an intersectional problem.

I don't think you have to be a secret racist to say "well poo poo, I just spent a significant amount of money to buy a house in a very expensive neighborhood because it had schools that were superior to other schools in the area, and now it looks like I might end up not getting what I expected to get because of events beyond my control". if you spent a bunch of money to buy a house in an exclusive neighborhood and then the city decided to repurpose a public building in that neighborhood to be a new prison, or repurposed a public space in that neighborhood to be a new landfill, you would probably still be upset about that, whether or not you were a secret racist.

I see it as more of a buyer-beware issue, with a guy who has a small amount of national notoriety and delusions of grandeur about what his wealth can buy him.

It's me, I'm the guy comparing black children coming to your kid's school with the city turning your local park into a landfill

suburban bougie types literally believe this, though it's usually more explicitly class-based (or both)

I just like that the dude in the space of two paragraphs the dude managed to "well, actually..." himself into claiming any school black kids go to is the same as a prison, inadvertently making a good point about how stupid and evil his argument is

So far I've seen celebrities, goons, every news site, thousands of verified twitter randos, and the dictionary take turns swinging at all these frothing mad misogynist nerds angry about the female Dr. Who, but... aside from 5 or 6 twitter trolls (two of which had their tweet deleted faster than I could view the replies) and this guy, I haven't actually seen any of these frothing mad misogynist nerds angry about the female Dr. Who.

I'm starting to think that the massive horde of sexist Dr. Who fanboy geeks that all these people are swinging at isn't actually real and they're all just posturing (and, ironically, working to further enrich a company of sex criminals in the process)

Oh poo poo it's a Doctor Who false flag and

wait a loving minute

did you just call the BBC a company of sex criminals

like the whole BBC

That better be some meta-level irony but the fact you linked to both the Express and the Daily Mail makes me think maybe you're serious???

Honestly, what was the last worthwhile thing the BBC has even? All I can think of is Walking With Dinosaurs and that was in the 90s. Definitely not enough solid content to make up for their many, many, many sexual assaults on women and children.

It sure is easier to indict the BBC when you talk about it like a street gang as opposed to a public service organisation made up of like 50,000 people

Okay seriousposting for a minute here: men like Saville were a systemic problem, and their crimes were normalised and covered up by failures on every level of society. The problem now is that rather than giving an honest assessment of how things got so hosed up, Saville is only ever brought up in bad faith by evil shitheads to attack an institution they hate (the BBC) while exonerating and whitewashing away the culpability of institutions they like (the police, the right-wing press, Thatcher's government)

So any time the BBC is mentioned and someone goes 'b-b-b-but SAVILLE!' it's safe to assume they're a middle-aged home counties fascist who clutches their purse when they see refugees on the news
