  • In reality, not everyone quits and your pay didn’t move. Only way to improve your pay is often move and negotiate.

    If you stay, you can do 200% of the work and hope there is a role and they appreciate your work. Or just sell your experience to a company that definitely has that role available.

    So you assumed I’m an American liberal…

    Firstly, I’m not American. I live in Europe. So fail one. Secondly, I’m a Socialist, so fail two. Fuck liberalism, and screw America, but ultimately, that doesn’t mean you have to swallow everything the enemies of American push. Oh, and I’m on Lemmy because I haven’t touched Reddit in a while. You’re the weirdest leftie that is still actively on an enshittified right-wing hell hole and the projection is real crazy. You cannot demand critical analysis from Americans, and fail in it yourself.

    Oh, btw, Russia is capitalist, with many, many billionaires. The proletariat are not reaping the benefits of their exploitation.

    I live in a world where you can be anti-captalist and not shilling for Russia.

    Let’s go back to basics though, if you have a source saying something, you have to ask who said it, and whether they have a motive. Russia Today is the Russian state broadcaster. It’s a really dreadful source to use to understand a war Russia are currently in. I’d suggest you’d find a less biased source, but not too many of them are pushing Russian propaganda.

    I’m really curious. How do you run polling stations, where you have to advertise to the public where they are, and to come there, and protect yourself from drone and missile strikes? I really want to understand how you can run elections where you’re being invaded. Can you help me out here? Any examples?

    I get really annoyed with Libtards throwing around terms like “tankies” but you’re really kind of walking the ball into your own net (football reference) when you’re shilling this hard for Russia.














  • You have missed the point completely. UK isn’t good but even given how bad you think it is, doesn’t tolerate the slurs mentioned (the whole point of the post). I speak about it because I live here and I’m shocked people even debating that these words are fine.

    What miraculous country are you from that is so free from racism?

    In a nutshell, I’ve said these words not cool here and your contribution is effectively “your racist country is so bad. Don’t talk”. Not the most helpful contribution ever. Who hurt you?


  • UK did some dark shit in the past. No debate.

    Brexit is a whole different topic. Norway isn’t part of the EU, does that mean they are racist? You can hopefully see how weak that point was. Part of the debate was about sovereignty and economic decline. Whether valid, your implication that because 17m voted for that, they are all racist, is wholly wrong, shallow and child like black and white thinking. Some are, yes. I do know folks from right or left year voted for it who don’t have a racist bone in their body. You have to be able to handle nuanced debates though.

    You’ve completely changed the topic from slurs and what isn’t acceptable to a whole piece on racism and I think every country can do an awful lot more to improve, UK included. The point was, slurs in there that some are finding acceptable in other countries isn’t here. You’d get banned from football games for them or fired from jobs.

    If you just want to go down the “UK all bad!” You can carry on the whatabouttery/kitchen sinking on your own to make yourself feel better to protect your country and feed that nationalist indignation you got going on. If you want to go back to discussing slurs and acceptability, happy to welcome you back to the debate.
