Have you told her about the cornerstone speech, where the vice president of the confederacy says, literally, that the institution of slavery is the cornerstone upon which the entire confederacy was built

So far the “keep calm, and resist.” Crowd is making progress

Oh yea, I’ll bet

“Nazis were good” isn’t the point of this post

they aren’t saying the modern worker has it just as bad as other slaves, they’re talking about institutionalized forced labor.

I’d also like to mention that anarchists and socialists have, for a long time, criticized wage labor under capitalism as being more exploitative than literal serfdom i.e. kropotkin’s “shame on the feudal baron” quote. Serfs giving up a quarter of their crop was seen as barbarous, but wage laborers give up the entire value of their labor and are paid only a pittance for it

dawg, wage labor under capitalism is literally slavery with more steps. If your ability to survive is predicated on your ability to sell your body for a wage, you are a slave, and anyone arguing otherwise (you, in this case) is wrong. If you refuse to work and your refusal is met with homelessness and starvation, that is no less coerced labor than if I held a fucking gun to your head.

Also your initial statement of “workers have rights, slaves have none” is just so fucked and wrong from multiple perspectives. Slaves have historically had rights, not every form of slavery is “north american chattel slavery” where they’re treated like livestock. And, again, what difference is there from a “right” won through violence by a union and rights won by slave revolts? There isn’t any

I can’t think of a worse example for the utility of using AI to improve animation than some slice of life bullshit. This just looked like someone wasted their time (or would have, if they were doing actual work) remaking scenes with equivalent quality animation. Honestly idk what’s even “famously bad” about the original

Okay, when people had to literally arm themselves, fight and die for the right to a union, and then to rights those unions fought for i.e. the 8 hour workday, do you not see the similarity between those literal armed struggles and slave rebellions

Stupid is what it is, there isn’t enough room for ammo or to physically reload all those cannons. what a rube

Reading Harlan Ellison and thinking “i could make a mouthless screamer”

I have a car that’s been sitting in my driveway for a year now and it’s really fun when i start to think about stuff like this

What if you take your dick and use that on the fingerprint scanner, do you think the cops would make you whip it out
