Sharing proclamations is an official act. Selling early access to them is just part of that act.


I really hate that my entire life I thought this sentiment was just crazy talk from loons.
This is the first time in over 50 years I feel like it’s now the right sentiment.
I hate this.
It would absolutely work.
Forcing people into crippling debt, however, helps create the indentured servitude class. The in debt students and future workers are less likely to waste time on stupid things like protesting or revolt.
Educational debt is one of the prongs of system rigging and the elites in America prefer it this way.
Elite owned media keeps pumping out the bs of affordability and scaring people with trans nonsense and the cycle keeps on going.
If Americans could wake the f up it could change quickly, but history has shown that they won’t.
Hmm so I guess the challenge is create co ops that outperform c corps so much that investors give up trying to invest in regular c corps because they lose in the long run.
That might be worthwhile to try…


He literally can’t suspend elections.
The physics of the situation don’t support it.
The laws are against him, the size of the country is against him, the total manpower available to enforce a suspension is against him.
The US held state run elections during the literal civil war.
We aren’t in a civil war. He will try everything he can to manipulate elections but cancelling them is utterly impossible.
Oh I bet a cooperative would have plenty of internal conflict. No group of humans gets together without conflict even when incentives are really well aligned.
The points above on the governance model I think are ideal, but another reason to do this would be to encourage other companies to look at the model and be encouraged to adopt it. If you start with a co op I think it’s less likely other companies would look at that and say he lets convert to a coop. I want to find ways to help improve the system currently running not just make one just company.
A great outcome in my mind is a story where you say look at this software company that’s fully unionized and they are killing it on growth and productivity, even higher than those non union shops.
This would make everyone pay attention because people don’t really care about anything but long term growth independent of the company’s operating system.
A co op would be so different from existing systems that I fear people would think hey that’s neat but we can’t replicate it unless we started over.
That is absolutely one model, but I think it might be better to have an explicit union setup to avoid the co op elements being perverted into old school capitalism over time and nobody wants to unionize there because it is nominally a co op.
It might be more interesting to setup an explicit capitalist vs union structure where the capitalist side has strict bylaws in place to enforce union negotiation and support. That would probably be more honest over time as I think systems tend towards power for those that are running things one way or another.
A co op could work really well though if the company stayed smaller and had strict guidelines for membership and clear processes for removal of bad actors.
Definitely worth a lot more thought.
Tech unionization is something that kind of makes me want to start another company.
It would be interesting to go union by default from the get go. Yes I’d be setting up conflict, but I expect everyone that would join would be very into the experiment and we’d all want to make it work well.


This whole current government is basically explosive diarrhea.
This is just the literal manifestation of that fact.


He looks so guilty, it’s so weird at this point, it’s like this is literally the only thing in the universe maybe he feels bad about. And that’s a huge maybe.


Good lord, literally everyone knows what’s in the files, we know it’s awful, they should just release them it won’t change the base they will keep making excuses, and the distractions are pointless now.
Trump wasn’t wrong when he said he could shoot someone on 5th avenue, this can’t be a lot worse, they should just release everything and then move on. They aren’t going to take him down.


So maybe I’m stupid but don’t states run elections? Why would they need anything from the feds? Like shouldn’t the feds just be completely gone in all ways during state run elections?
I must be missing something here, will this even matter?


Ok, let’s do the healing by fire.
Gotta cauterize the wounds.


I don’t care if the nuke the filibuster, whether or not they do that the next times dems are in power they need to use the immune executive to burn all these traitors to the ground.
Will they? I don’t have a lot of hope there, but any candidate that runs on that will get my vote.


The only reasonable response to these requests is fuck you figure out your data center power issues yourself.
Power is for the people.


I feel like this is what happens if the penguin becomes president.


I guess they could light a data center on fire to keep warm and not run their heaters? Win/win?
(Also I hope it’s very obvious to everyone this is a joke, I’m not trying no to incite or encourage violence in any way at all).


Hahahahahahahaahahah. Ha.
Here’s the neat part, the murders will continue either way.
Why should anybody shut up?
