Xaris posted:admittingly yes you're right, but it's hard to describe the nuances. police are weapons of the ruling elite, but they also can act in their own interest because they like to flex and beat some people. this was mostly a case of cops liking busting some people up yelling about em because their feelings were hurt. In this case the ruling elite were never actually scared of BLM, they were quite secure and some even went along with it (for appearances only), even NPR coverage was mostly "pro" (at least in the liberal sense of token racism) whereas it was very negative on OWS. This unfolded that way because there was not a significant class component to the protests (although there should have been) and the framing was largely one of racism/bad apples rather than exploitation and rich-getting-richer. Eh. Wouldn't really say that. OWS was taken down by an organized assault of the DHS while the media was only talking about annoying drum circles, with BLM an incredible number of people were gassed and beaten by the police while the media pretended that BLM is actually an NGO that raises awareness and funds, that you can give money to in order to absolve yourself of your sins. It's not that different though one is longer ago than the other so the official position has had more time to replace what actually happened in the public consciousness.

Willa Rogers posted:The difference was mainly that OWS caught law enforcement offguard, and the bigger & more widespread it got, and the longer it went on, the more the feds coordinated a militarized police response by the states, with obama's blessings. Just remembered how Warren claimed credit for OWS. Lmao.

silicone thrills posted:The eggs I buy from the grocery store have shells that crack if I barely touch them and the yokes are always a super pale yellow but my neighbors chicken eggs are always thick as gently caress and i gotta thwunk em to get em to crack open and the yokes are a really dark yellow. Massive difference. Isn't that caused by the weird disinfection routines they do in the US?

SlimGoodbody posted:So I had a fun thought that maybe someone who is not currently skullfucked with COVID, as I am, could verify. It is an open secret that the powers that be were not interested in presenting the full books on COVID deaths. As the pandemic wore on, more and more corners got cut, whether by regulatory bodies changing the definition of "COVID deaths" to exclude "people who died with both COVID and a fig leaf co-morbidity" or by red states who straight up stopped reporting them because it was politically inconvenient for them to exist. The numbers also didn't count the people who died for lack of emergency care due to filled up ICU beds as COVID related, despite COVID being the reason those needs were occupied.   Of course it's not quite that easy since the US had one of it's largest expansions of its welfare state during the first year of the pandemic which worked in the opposite direction. That's happily dismantled now though, thank you Joe.

thechosenone posted:Will it even help much? A lot of jobs they need require skills kids aren't going to have, they're gonna struggle to get to work unless it is compatible with their parents commute/is in transit or walking distance, and their productivity is going to be lower than the adults they replaced. Not to mention that you immediately start having less highschool and college grads (which I'm sure has been up and coming for a while now) because they're already working. You need those small child hands to strip the copper out of the hard to reach spaces in the wall.

hobbez posted:It's pretty disingenuous to pretend to not see how employment is tied to the situation with inflation, and no-one thinks inflation is stabilizing the economy or good for average americans. The economy is certainly caught in a contradictory situation where high employment = bad but that doesn't mean it isn't true to some degree Hm, yeah that's ideology.

hobbez posted:I dunno, don't most reports show wages are rising, albeit hugely variably by sector? I personally have gotten about 20-30% increase in comp over the past 18 months or so (but this is partially because I am in a chronically underpaid service profession). The fierce competition for labor and corresponding wages increases over the past few years seems pretty well demonstrated  Yeah, don't think wages are what's driving inflation.
