The ability to change features, prices, and availability of things you've already paid for is a powerful temptation to corporations.

Yeah, but did you get it at the "counter?"

[–] poopkins@lemmy.world 2 points 11 months ago (1 children)

No, I don't get it.

The counter is that the slavery of everyone doesn't mean they're "not racist" by applying slavery "to white people too." They've been enslaving white people since way before we came to the US. I am, by family, English & Irish. So just because I'm blond, blue and white don't mean I'm not ready to WAR against slavery by the corporations or any bullshit hedgemony. Democratic party is as guilty as the republicans and their claim to fight is just sucker lies. They don't fight shit for real and Biden is just Trumps most active cock sucking bitch.

I don't mean this in any disrespectful way at all, but I'm completely missing the context of what you're trying to tell me and genuinely have no idea what you're talking about.

[–] Chakravanti@sh.itjust.works 0 points 11 months ago

Corporate slavery.
