“We’re on the right track,”
They, the owning class whose mountain of wealth just keeps growing at our expense, and their short sighted mouthpieces, are. That’s all that matters to those who value money more than people.

Biden is reacting to all of this in exactly the same way anyone else in his shoes would.
He’s starting to react exactly the same way trump and many others on the right do, and is gaslighting his voters the same way, too (like by dismissing the perfectly valid concerns as “drama”)…
That is to say it may very well be down to age, but it’s also just the textbook behaviour of politicians who are there to serve themselves, the filthy rich establishment, and the status quo they all need to survive.
Easy enough mistake to make…
14th Amendment
It’s the 13th, but otherwise accurate.
You said
I’m not really sure what difference it makes what type of facility she’s put into. My understanding is that you don’t get to interact with anybody in solitary, regardless of gender.
You also said
I might not be understanding something
But no mention of timeline. 🤔
Though even if you had mentioned the timeline, the quote I pasted from the top of the article is pretty clear about that.
But no, you were clearly “misunderstanding” why it matters if she’s in male-prison solitary or female-prison solitary, while deliberately ignoring the key fact that she shouldn’t be in solitary in the first place. Or you simply just didn’t read the article.
Either way, putting your hand up to say “my bad” isn’t hard to do, and it makes you look a lot less like you’re here in bad faith than doubling down like you are now does.
Maybe actually read the article? This is right at the top:
When Kim realized she was being removed, she asked to speak with her lawyer and see paperwork authorizing the transfer, which was denied. Kim then refused to walk as commanded, at which point she was allegedly thrown to the ground by guards, who tied her ankles and wrists together and put her in the back of an SUV, she said. At Monroe Correctional Complex, Kim was put into solitary confinement, for allegedly “refusing transfer.”
She wouldn’t be in solitary confinement if they hadn’t moved her.
And I’m sure that isn’t the only case either…
Let me let you in on a little secret, because the title implies otherwise - wildlife protection was never a priority, and will never become one, to any company under capitalism, but especially to a company like that.
I think this site mentioned in the article deserves more attention - boycottwaterbills.com
Considering we’re the ones literally paying for sewage disposal, we shouldn’t only stop, but also demand our money back en-masse, since we’ve clearly not been provided with the service we’ve paid for.
Never mind those actually getting unsafe water through their taps, they shouldn’t be paying anything until it’s fixed, and then some, for having to have sewage in their taps.
Money is the only language companies understand.
a vision that is more that ‘I can beat the other guy’
As was the case here in the UK, it’s all they need to manufacture consent to maintain the status quo at best. In reality, the descent towards fascism continues no matter who is elected, and it will continue to do so as long as we play by the rules those in power have set out for us.
Because the other option is to support Trump
Being given that illusion, doesn’t mean that’s actually the case. There are other options, they just involve more than bare minimum action, including the discomfort of confronting and unlearning the indoctrination we’ve been put through from birth, and facing up to the fact that the system is rigged by design and is working as intended, and that no matter which of the teams you pick, neither is there to serve you or society, but the owning class, and themselves, and that only playing by the rules they have set out will never result in that changing.
That would be nice, but sadly it’ll never happen (not as long as companies making that much profit, and whose owners therefore wield the kind of power that comes with that, and the system that encourages and enables their existence, exist).
And I bet the, almost exclusively rich, people who actually created the mess (I would guess the vast majority of climbers have been there in the past 20-30 years) won’t even contribute to fund this, never mind actually clean up after themselves like they should have in the first place (and like those still swarming the sacred monument continue to do in exchange for the ego boost they’re there to seek).
For context:
The automaker expects its net income for the year will be between $10.1 billion and $11.5 billion, above its previous guidance of $9.8 billion to $11.2 billion. GM’s first-quarter 2024 net income was up from last year’s $2.4 billion
So somewhere around the 1% of their annual profit, not even pocket change. In other words - they’ve not been given a fine, but rather a pass to continue doing whatever the fuck they want at a nice low cost.
That sucks. I had an issue at first with it only giving the option for android even though I’m on pc, but eventually I managed to get it right, I think there was another sub menu or something, I can’t remember exactly since it was a few months ago now… If that’s not it, I guess give some of the other options given here a try?
the RealPage algorithm
Which was programmed by humans, with biases and vested interests based in and fuelled by capitalism and the rest of the kyriarchy
I don’t see any value in saying that human behavior is the problem but then specifically carving out an exception for the automated agents we create to amplify specific behaviors.
Human behaviours. Machines don’t have their own behaviours, only those humans have programmed them to have, again, with those same biases and vested interests based in and fuelled by capitalism and the rest of the kyriarchy
When RedBubble ganks art and sells it on t-shirts, how is that different from when Stability ganks art and sells it at a text prompt?
It isn’t, both are automated systems designed by humans, you guessed it - with those same biases and vested interests based in and fuelled by capitalism and the rest of the kyriarchy
Convincing the working class that tools the system creates are free of the system’s agenda may be an even greater achievement.
And only picking examples of ways in which technology is used that are explicitly for profit is cherry picking and twisting reality. The existence of things like FOSS and other ways in which people share technology or otherwise use it to improve society without any profit motive proves you wrong.
AI isn’t intrinsically capitalist, just like computers aren’t, nor were steam engines or power looms. Capitalism convincing you that its way is the only way to use tools doesn’t mean that’s the reality, it only means the propaganda is working.
I got annoyed by something similar (E: also a google sign in pop up, in the same spot, though looks a little different than yours) not too long ago and found this worked:

I’m really glad you’ve found the information helpful, this kind of consideration and inclusion can only make a community stronger.
Just one more point I think I should have included: not all disabilities are visible - from autism to PoTS to chronic pain to mental illness, some people might look perfectly abled but actually face many barriers and challenges, so remember to include them too (and again, not that you would, but in general - don’t doubt or question someone’s disability, like questioning why someone who doesn’t “look disabled” parks in a disabled bay or uses the disabled toilets or can’t stand in a queue but needs to sit even if they look young and fit. Not being visible doesn’t mean whatever it is isn’t having a massive impact).
Anyway, I’ve rambled on enough, and you clearly get it, so I’ll end on a - solidarity, comrade!
Lol, it’s working perfectly well already, in case you haven’t been paying attention, those still blindly loyal to Biden, as well as the “blue no matter who” crowd are proving you wrong every day.
Until people like you confront the fact that we have ALL been conditioned to accept this farce, and that those on both teams serve the same people (billionaires) and use the same tactics (empty promises, flat out lies, gaslighting, manipulating, even love bombing) they just appeal to different sensibilities so your bias tells you the one that appeals to you isn’t that bad actually, we will never break free from this circus.
