Hear, hear. I prefer socialist revolution of course but in the meantime I’m willing to compromise.

Yep. All of this. They want the “good” immigrants and the “middle” classes who can afford expensive education and travel, and not the lower classes that their own society is built on the backs of. Their base is just too easily blinded by racism to see the class war for what it is.

They don’t need to reinstate slavery, they already are able to employ people at wages below what it costs to feed, clothe, and house them. They don’t care how we live as long as they are making more money than last year, which includes profiting from our consumption. No, all they have to do is gradually replace their workforce with workers that accept lower compensation. Poverty, homelessness, recessions, debt, unemployment, these are all necessary components of capitalism. They keep the workforce desperate for any wage it can get. Capitalists have referred to it as “tempering” the workforce.

Absolutely, I fully agree with you. We are experiencing the same depression of wages in the engineering sector because of these abusive practices. I still live quite comfortably as an engineer but I am watching the conditions develop for it to be taken from me as it has from others.

I question how it can be that I interact with more foreign nationals than the marginalized peoples of my own country, especially those like myself whom I grew up with that have all the same drive I do if not more. I am watching as the ladder that got me here is being stuffed with exploitable labor and pulled back up, when more should be going down and leading to more diverse careers that actually serve humanity. Unlike my industry whose entire business model is taking an essential service from our countrymen so they could sell it back to us in a form that regularly kills and financially burdens us.

Sorry about your health situation. It really sucks that we live under such oppressive conditions, with leaders would allow our needs to be deprived from us simply because we do not have the wealth that they are accountable to. It feels like a cliché to say money is the root of all evil but every day it gets harder to avoid such an apparent truth.

I think it’s talking about rows of seating. Not the grille.

marginalizing the majority

🐶😙

Oh & reminder Stallin apologists are class traitors.

Who told you that? The American capitalist class? You really trust what they have to say about the leader of a socialist country they were trying to justify a war with, and prevent their own working class from getting any ideas, at all costs?

I invite you to challenge all beliefs that have been formed under a state which finds itself threatened by socialist revolution.

My guy 😭 you don’t know how wrong you are. I’m a black woman from a single mother that paid my own way to a bachelor and career in engineering. I am putting in the work, I am out on the streets in my community, organizing with a revolutionary party. I invite you to read through my comment history. Check your fucking privilege.

The Republicans and Democrats are both right wing parties of capital. Neither of them are on the side of the people and they absolutely were not about to give you welfare reform. They are beyond cleaning up.

“HR: Have they said they are a Nazi or that they hated Jews?”

Yes, they have endorsed the great replacement theory.

Yes. At best, he is an apologist for Israel/Zionism which does not represent Jewish people as a whole. Zionists hated Holocaust victims and were Nazi collaborators.

I imagine this is the kind of nonsense political take one develops when they go through life only skimming a few grade school social studies textbooks and actively disregarding all other reality or thought.

noooo you HAVE to enforce borders with violence!!! How else will you keep out all the cretins from nations whose infrastructure you’ve destroyed and resources you’ve plundered!!! You can’t possibly take care of all those people, think of tHe EcOnOmY!!!

hahaha that’s so funny guy you really think this is a normal and well adjusted view of the world. Those scare quotes around uplifting minorities is a cherry on top. You’re so devoid of empathy you can’t even fucking imagine a world of people that actually care about each other for the sake of their humanity.

I’ll take a “stallin apologist” over a capitalist that cares more about his stocks than his fellow man. Any fucking day of the week.

Happy to help !! Just make sure the part is the same for the 2008 model year cause the forum is for 2000 - 2005. It’s probably pretty close if not exact but you never know.

Best of luck to you, looking forward to the report back 🫡

Apparently that was a social experiment to see how many people would believe it.

Which is kinda fucked cause it messed me up when I was too young to understand that adults don’t always know what they’re talking about. For years, I would go to bed with the top sheet wrapped over my mouth so spiders couldn’t get in. For some asshole’s social experiment.

Hm. Worth a shot? Here’s the $20 part they recommend. Guy even wrote up a pretty decent tutorial, assuming you know your way around a jack and a wrench.

What part of the car?

Lol sorry your rhetorical strategy didn’t pan out for you.

I think that our first concern should be for helping our people rather than pointing fingers at them. It’s always somebody else whose life isn’t worth caring about or mobilizing for because they were just a bad person behaving wrongly. It’s always just a statistic. Until it happens to you. Do not fall for it.

Nobody chooses to die or even to kill in an accident. Every one of us is victim to the system, most of all when we die as a product of it. We are not machines. Nobody should have to take part in such an authoritarian system that their risk of death is increased simply for being and acting human.

The best I can do is that they didn’t consider the factors that led to every person needing to be behind the wheel of a car as an almost daily occurrence in the first place. “Bad drivers” is a cop out that doesn’t help anybody but the automotive industry.

You’re making a lot of assumptions about me, all I asked for is evidence to back your claims. I don’t know shit about China. Your story just reads to me like a “and then everybody clapped” kind of situation where we write off the chinese as racist and unwilling to fight their oppressors because of how racist they are, and terminate all further thought because we read a compelling story about some guy that did a college report one time and was approached by five mainland chinese that just happened to all be in the same class with him and have all this secret knowledge that nobody is allowed to talk about even though its true and everybody knows it’s happening and everybody agrees with it.

I would be really interested in seeing this research you are talking about and anything to corroborate your personal anecdote.
