My comment has nothing to do with the actual issue in contention. I am merely suggesting that people on both sides have their reasons and one side ridiculing the other is inappropriate behavior. I can guarantee you would have a completely d

If preventing future leaks by any means would ensure security for you, your country, and your future generations, would you do whatever it took to make sure it never happened again? I'm not agreeing or disagreeing with it, I'm jus

Because there are worse people trying to do worse harm than the US? The real world is a dog eat dog world and if you're not up to snuff, there will always be someone else trying to eat your lunch.

Whether it is stupid or not is an opinion. I don't see the point in ridiculing a group of people who believe that a certain way of life is best for them.

China may be able to crush the regular people thinking there is no way for citizens to fight back but they're wrong. Dejected people will no longer being a productive person in society and possibly harm society by getting into crime.

Most people that are criticizing FG here are either natural born Chinese who are taught to hate them or unknowing westerners that have been swayed by CCP propaganda (I am willing to bet there is some on this very thread). I don't see a

Batshit left opinion: pro-choice conservatives should be killed. Believe me, I've heard dozens of variations on both sides. The difference is the left is overwhelming supported by all of our cultural institutions so there is a bias aga

Both sides believe they are the moderates and the other are the radicals. Until you zoom out and stop playing tribal politics, you will realize both sides are batshit insane and nothing really matters except being civil to one another and t

Style and looks is just what it is, a shell. And some people use clothing to augment what they are lacking in their character. And smart people can see through that.

Solution to #1 is bringing in workers that care more about $ than lifestyle. Same situation in the tech industry.

There is no evidence of fraud because our institutions are unwilling to investigate allegations of fraud. If you ask why they aren't willing to investigate fraud, there's an excuse for that. Then, any attempt to audit or secure th

I think what burns me and a lot of people in this industry out is the fact that you can be a consistent high performer but still feel stuck because landing a new job is so difficult. The whole interview process is so far removed from actual

Lots of lawyers and CYA means you can do things that are bad but won't break the law and gives an out for people on online forums to defend you with "but it didn't qualify as legal corruption!".

Well, maybe I should have re-phrased it to "Capitalism with maximizing shareholder value characteristics". Toss human nature on top of that, and you're biased towards "late stage capitalism".

by president 4y ago
It's an inevitable part of late-stage capitalism, no? Union busting, off-shoring, and imported labor are all needed to prop up the system. Pair this with ever-increasing costs of living and you get a collapsing society. But hey, at lea

IMO the trend of loss of jobs to automation or offshoring is unsustainable and we are already seeing the cracks forming in the fabric of society due to it. Maybe that is why some people are trying to "reset" the way the world work

I don't believe any of that "hiring is impossible in the US" BS. What these companies are really saying is they don't want to reduce the workload that results in needing so many extra hires. And of course, once you intro
