    Social Baton Rouge Will Split into Two Cities Following Court Ruling

    Yeah, this entire thread and the collective orgasm from all the right-wingers at this story really summarizes how truly anti-democratic they are. They don't think representation should be based on citizenship but rather income. One person, one vote? Fuck that. What if I consider that person...

    Prem Thread 23/24 v19: Bayer 04 Leverkusen Fußball GmbH Edition

    <bball2> <bball2> Deffid still nowhere to be seen. Nice. If they beat Madrid in the final, it'll be the biggest CL upset in my lifetime.

    Law House passes antisemitism bill that will target free speech and criticism of Israel

    Let's see- The first one: deals with parents' right to gender affirmation. Zero to do with freedom of expression. The second one: deals with designation of "hate crime" if publishing white supremacy material WHILE planning, perpetrating or developing criminal acts. The publishing of white...

    Law House passes antisemitism bill that will target free speech and criticism of Israel

    Link to a piece of legislation started and almost unanimously supported by Democrats aimed at outlawing border patrol criticism or gender opinions, please. Thanks in advance.

    Law House passes antisemitism bill that will target free speech and criticism of Israel

    This post will get ignored by all the Sherfronters here. But when a group of pink haired lesbians shout down some comedian they find bigoted or something, there will be 20 pages of them losing their shit about how "the left hates free speech!" Truly a low IQ group.

    Social Minimum Wage now at $20 an hour in California

    Nice job in making it personal. The reality is, there are tons of people that are getting their job done AND having to twiddle their thumbs because there's nothing else to do. 40 hours per week and 8 hours per day is too much. These movements are aimed at reducing thumb dwiddling time, not...

    Social Minimum Wage now at $20 an hour in California

    <JerryWWF> Are you from 1985 or something? It's been very well documented that few if any people (especially white collar workers) actually work 40 hours a week. The computer, the internet, cell phones and everything related to it have greatly reduced the amount of time needed to keep the...

    Social Minimum Wage now at $20 an hour in California

    Well I'm not a huge expert on the subject but I think that the ones that'll lose work first are going to be low-income earners. Factory workers, delivery drivers, fast food workers, people like that. So let's say it's $1k a month for everyone and these types of workers will have $12k a year as...

    Law Substitute teacher KO's student for using racial slur

    We were using two different PDFs, no wonder. Your report covers 92-96 stuff and mine covers stuff from 2011 at the earliest. Yeah, the numbers are similar but we can't really draw conclusions until we see something that explicitly covers early-90s until today without any gaps.

    Social Minimum Wage now at $20 an hour in California

    Good. The next step is to start working in some sort of universal basic income and shorter work weeks.

    Elections All but one Top Political Leader in the UK and Ireland are (part) South Asian or Black

    Yeah, I think he was just a standard right-winger for most of those 18 years because I certainly don't remember hearing any outrageous stories or statements from him for most of that time. You started hearing his controversial takes for a few years, he rightly got a spotlight and criticism, and...

    What page are you finding 92-96 in? A ctrl + F search isn't yielding anything for me

    Law Substitute teacher KO's student for using racial slur

    Well, you mentioned that teachers who have taught for decades are quitting because kids' "behavior is so bad" and we're in a thread where a high school student fought a teacher, so me bringing up student violence data is very much on topic. If you want to broaden the subject to overall...

    Law Substitute teacher KO's student for using racial slur

    What report had info from the 90s? A quick search got me this one https://bjs.ojp.gov/document/iscs22.pdf And it had this under the "Teacher Victimization" section: • The percentage of public school teachers who reported being threatened with injury by a student from their school was 6...

    Social Crisis' at Columbia University forces classes online, arrests at Yale College campuses are becoming battle grounds for Hamas and Isreal

    I never said or implied anything about hypocrisy or confusion. The left often eats itself because many are SO ideological, they become intransigent. They're so dead set on a particular outcome that they reject anything that doesn't perfectly mirror that. So they'll splinter because a candidate...

    Social Crisis' at Columbia University forces classes online, arrests at Yale College campuses are becoming battle grounds for Hamas and Isreal

    The left has always been ideological. Too ideological, in fact, which is why it so often eats itself, as many have pointed out. Some care about changing the system, others replacing it entirely, others more cultural issues, others economics and social class, others foreign policy, etc. There's...

    Social Crisis' at Columbia University forces classes online, arrests at Yale College campuses are becoming battle grounds for Hamas and Isreal

    It's hilarious that rightists are pretending to be concerned with bigotry. If it's not bigotry against whites (why isn't there a White Entertainment Television, huh??), to them, it doesn't exist. I see this more of a, hey, the left really cares about this issue... so let me take the opposing...

    Social Crisis' at Columbia University forces classes online, arrests at Yale College campuses are becoming battle grounds for Hamas and Isreal

    Out of all the idiot takes by the right, this one has to be near the very top. A big part of leftist ideology is tolerance for difference in race, ethnicity, religion, sexuality, etc. Shit, that's one of the major criticisms the right makes: liberals are tolerant to a fault, they accept TOO...

    Social Crisis' at Columbia University forces classes online, arrests at Yale College campuses are becoming battle grounds for Hamas and Isreal

    Large-scale protests like this have never been for "dumb shit." Women's rights, Vietnam, Apartheid South Africa, Iraq, Gaza. And in every generation, right wingers have been against it. There are few things they love more than state violence and power. Oh, but when the state tries to tax or...
