Ok, so this post was reported as non-gaming.
I will admit it’s not exactly gaming related, so I will agree to that point, however I believe its important enough to leave up.
Not like anyone cares, but I don’t always go by reports, I also look at votes, and replies. Seems like most of the folks are interested in this, so unless I get major pushback, I’m gonna leave it up. I don’t think I’ve ever said what or why I remove or leave up a post but today I feel the need to let you know the reason. And to anyone who did report, dont take this comment as a hint or feel like its a personal attack. Y’all keep reporting when you feel like it, I wouldn’t have even looked at this post without the report, so it at least got eyes on it. I like to leave the community to itself, its a great community and I rarely get reports. For one of the biggest/bigger communities on lemmy.ca we get very little reports.
Pic of me and my bird in the barn…just because
Very professional reply here from UncleBadTouch lol
You know what would help prevent things like this? Unions.
Unions are what companies in the tech industry fear the most.
union Data { int i; float f; char str[20]; };
Here, have a union
Of course they did. All of these companies are against anything that challenges them.
Challenging them is one thing. Disrupting the CEO’s public speech is another. I think almost every company would fire any employee who did that for any reason.
I think we all need to remember that no CEO’s speech is more important that stopping human rights violations. Imagine if we had to wait until Hitler was done speaking to do anything
I guess very few PR departments would agree with you
Seriously who cares about what a PR department thinks. Their job is literally to lie and manipulate people.
It’s not about caring. It’s about what gets done
It’s about psychological manipulation. PR is really just propaganda renamed and repackaged. I don’t believe they should be able to practice what they do at all.
If their craft was allowed they should be held to a high standard with a stringent set of ethics backed up by laws.
IBM had a role in the holocaust. Those numbers tattooed on everyone in the concentration camp? Those were IBM ID numbers for the punch cards.
If IBM staff protested about their role, it’s been lost to history. But it’s repeating today with Gaza and the staff who speak out are being demonized. Israel’s Lavender AI is being used to kill civilians. History will prove this woman and the other employees right in the end.
Not gonna stop selling to murderers tho, that’d be beyond the pale.
Classic capitalist brutality, whoever dares to speak out is crushed.
Oh, so in non-capitalist countries, do people who speak out against the current leadership do alright?
the list of non-capitalist countries is beaten to death. Aren’t capitalists supposed to be better somehow?
Maybe when you propose a economic system don’t also prescribe it as a government system too.
Nowadays every country is involved in capitalism, whether they like it or not. Also, non-capitalism doesn’t imply authoritarianism, take for example democratic socialism.
Non-capitalist countries don’t exist, smart-ass. But yes, the countries that value people a bit more than capital do tend to protect their people more than capital
Those responsible for sacking the people who have just been sacked, have been sacked
