What about the advocacy team that will bend over to whatever dodgy shit megacorporations wan.
Edit: nvm, I just remembered they completely shut off the advocacy division. Probably will shut off a bunch of other shit before they touch the execs.
Fire the highest paid exec first and I bet you there’s at least 30 devs paid for right there
What the fuck would a non profit need to pull google level profits for?
Mozilla should have been a gatekeeper for open web standards and made a browser that catered exactly to that. The rest is window-dressing.
What did they do with the Google money, tho? Eye-watering packages for their MBA/Lawyer executives and compromise after compromise with DRM peddlers in the name of “market cap”.
Fuck em, and let it be a lesson for other non-profits. FSF doesn’t seem to be any worse off for not paying cOmPetiTiVe rAtEs to get some clueless execs to betray the mission to chase trends and funds.
Kinda shit that happens when a non profit is concerned with offering a competitive salary to CEOs with MBAs
It’s one baby, Michael. How much could it cost, 5k?
When education isn’t liberating the dream of the oppressed is to become the oppressor
pointed out that if everyone picks the lesser of two evils then things are going to get less evil
That’s just absolutely not how it works even if you take it at face value. Both evils can be greater than the one rn, that has absolutely no bearing on which one is “lesser” among them.
You’re looking at it the wrong way. The fall of capitalism is the retirement plan, the people losing the most money rn were never gonna let you if things kept going the same way.
Ask seniors currently being squeezed for all they’re worth while being abused by staff in cramped and unsanitary facilities how they’re loving their retirement fund. That was the best case scenario.
It very demonstrably is. Credit card debt is at record highs, home ownership is down, rents are a bigger proportion of salary than they’ve been in like a century, one in every five children in the US face food insecurity, incarceration is the highest in the world by far both in volume and per capita, people are going bankrupt with medical debt at record rates.
Just because you don’t want to face up to it doesn’t mean it’s not happening.
Sure, if you refuse to look at the sky it’s pretty hard to see the asteroid getting bigger.
42, obviously
Anyone who didn’t think genocide was an entirely negotiable part of the platform/a wedge issue nuisance, basically. There were some Jill Stein voters there, some PSL voters, some non voters who are otherwise politically active, certainly a bigger percentage than Dems who think politics is a thing you do every two years for a few hours.
I’ve yet to see democrat leadership organizing for a general strike or advocating for civil disobedience, unlike those others mentioned.
Democrats are the ones criticizing the ones actually trying to put out the fire but doing jack shit about it.
What’s more, they’re the ones who doused the house with gas not a half a year ago, and whenever they’re not delighting in the terror going “oh I bet you must love it, you didn’t vote for the lady with the matches and now you got the guy with the flamethrower” they’re passing his budgets, they’re complying with Musk’s unelected goons, they’re getting on with his Gaza agenda and largely silent about the protestors getting kidnapped.
Asking for donations isn’t resisting, it’s ransom.
It’s you. They’re talking about you.
I’m not interested in debate, if there were anything to be gained from a conversation with closet fascists we’d already be in Star Trek territory.
Fascist apologia from libs, who could have seen that coming? If y’all really believed marxist leninists and fascists were the same you would have already resisted fascists like you would if y’all saw black people getting reparations or indigenous people getting their land back.
Derail one, more like. Giving people a cathartic rally, yell some slogans, present fuck all in the way of alternatives.
Until they tell voters to ditch the democratic party outright, they’re just sheepdogs doing what they’re there to do.
Best case scenario for libs. We all know if they rolled out Mike Pence as the Dem’s nominee libs would get piss mad at you for voting for somebody you actually wish would win instead of the Electable Lesser Evil.
I thought y’all needed all the guns to defend yourselves from tyranny.
I’m just saying, none of this shit would fly if the BPP was still around.
