Jimmy John’s forced fast food employees to sign non-competes. The labor pool of potential fast food workers is so vast, and the number of employees is so vast that it’s very clear these non competes were intended to threaten workers and sup

When you don’t have any facts on your side, you need to rely on innuendo and ad hominems.

This makes no sense at all. You’re saying that we should ignore detailed analysis that correctly diagnoses issues - for no reason at all?

Of course he doesn’t, he just endorses republicans, selectively leaks information to help them, and attacks their enemies. If that’s not the model of neutrality, then nothing is.

Statements of facts are biased when they hurt the feelings of people who refuse to accept them.

It’s not in good faith, it’s just a sound bite they heard that can be used to justify not thinking about it any further.

You’re missing the one activity that you know it will be used for - planning a coup to deny people the freedom to choose their government.

Brilliant thinking - sometimes too much sunlight is damaging. Better to make sure that the people supposedly using the public power they were given be allowed to act without accountability.

They had a lot of money and needed somewhere to put it. Then just back-rationalized the higher multiples from there.

Those are the historical reasons prisons were necessary, but those all go towards the above goals - providing a source of slave labor. It has expanded its reach since then though. While the legal has a hard time incarcerating people who hav

That rhetoric furthers economic benefits though. Prisons are mostly located in rural areas, where they provide job centers to otherwise poor people. The legal system is chiefly concerned with moving people out of urban centers into rural ar

Only if you don’t know the history of the American legal system - e.g., created to capture runaway slaves, then to provide a legal system to protect slavery. Allowing convicts to understand the history of the practice would be anathema to i

You have to realize the American legal system is optimized to (1) provide employment for the legal system, (2) provide slave labor for states and corporations, and (3) exploit the families of prisoners for profit.

I’m betting you’re lying, given your complete denial of reality. Specifically, it’s really only Republicans that are in denial that Stewart Rhodes and his associates have been convicted of seditious conspiracy. In very simple language, this

It’s amazing how well conditioned people are to blame others for not being exploited. Corporations having trouble finding workers to exploit is now a moral failure of the worker for not enriching rich assholes enough.

The gun in the FBI’s possession was the correct caliber but had the wrong rifling - it could not have fired the bullet they claimed it to. In a later appeal Ray’s lawyers argued that the bullet didn’t match the gun, and attempted to have th

This is exactly why republicans keep losing, they keep trying to repeat lies but they’re not sticking. I think those new Trump NFT trading cards are the secret to winning elections, I hope you bought yours.

Yes, defrauding child cancer patients causes actual harm. That’s why trump is legally barred from operating a charity. Sorry your whataboutism isn’t working. His supporters inability to admit any truth about him is a big factor as to why he
