Reply to comment by UsecMyNuts in Apple illegally fired five labor activists, union says | The workers, who were disciplined and fired for attendance-related issues, believe they were let go because of their union organizing by chrisdh79

For naming other employees they should be personally sued for workplace harassment. If you publicly slander your teammates for what happened at your workplace, you should be fired first of all. If your statements about your coworker is untrue, you should be personally liable.

Fuck every person like this.

That part is exactly the same it always has been in America. It was worse with the food industry a century ago. Much worse. So they passed laws and now it's a lot better.

Lots of industries grew as fast as tech, back when they were tech. Like planes, trains, and automobiles. Personal computers and their impact on business is far bigger an impact than tech. The industrial revolution was a much bigger impact on GDP than tech today. Almost an order of magnitude.

If you want to see no accountability, look up what the Dutch India company did in their territories. A literal startup company enslaved and committed genocide with their private armies, just for profit. There was a lot more social chaos from just that.

This. Elon could suck a million cocks a day and charge $500 a pop and still not have enough money after 10 years to buy Microsoft. I'm serious he'd be a a few hundred billion short after sucking billions of cocks - what makes anyone think he could even be a controlling shareholder. Microsoft is worth $1.89 trillion last I checked.

Put another way if all 330 million Americans including the children each tossed in $5K, that still wouldn't enough to buy Microsoft.

Reply to Is mining in space socially acceptable? by Gari_305

Is exploiting workers the Amazon way socially acceptable? Is dumping pollution to save a few cents on the dollar socially acceptable? This is a useless question. There is absolutely no hesitation to do something, if it is by a corporation and there is a profit motive. If you don’t, 99 others will happily do it.

The only question is is it legal or can I get away with it / make money after fines. Nothing else is even given a moment’s thought.

So I know of this and in most cases the entire tribe was migrating. The Romans refused the migration, even lost twice to one tribe before defeating them the third time. Their entire tribe completely abandoned their homeland due to overpopulation and pressure from other tribes. It happened again and again.

Ironically, the tribe just wanted to move into Cisalpine Gaul. They had completely wiped out the Roman army in the north and Rome assumed they were about to be destroyed, but the tribes weren't interested in that.

Hundreds of years later after the fall of the Western Roman empire the pattern resumed, with tribes migrating great distances, reaching as far as North Africa.
