The Ku Klux Klan is quite literally the genesis of the modern fascist movements

Everyone at my job who refused this and caused a huge stink are the ones that are seemingly not around about a year and half later. Not saying you aren't right or anything but I put the stupid app on my phone.

Sorry you being able to store child porn on my instance is considered pearl clutching. No fucking way I want that responsibility because I like to read memes.

It is so funny watching Americans contort themselves as if the elections aren't a sham. They act as if they are voting on board members for the banks, you know the people with power lol.

I had the same reaction, I immediately started laughing at how ridiculous it looked.

Congratulations Ruud on an amazing job!

My own vegan themed lemmy instance

video games after the PS1 era. I grew up with the NES - PS1 then got tired of video games in college and never really get into games since and I find them to be a chore when I try, even the old ones I used to like. Strangely though I do enjoy repairing them and I've been slowly fixing the old stuff I had in boxes in my closet like an old Game Gear by replacing the capacitors updating the screen. I never once used it since LOL. I'll probably end up selling it or giving it to the kids

Who is we???

I have no union and no leverage, they said no. What am I going to do, quit over using an app? My job pays my bills and I don't have another one lined up, this isn't the hill I'd die on.

The American system is literally fake it is so sad watching you people pretend it isn't and your local elections matter. Your local elections are a sham and complete and total joke when you do this:

Weird my vegantheoryclub.org instance shows up on browse.feddit.de but not lemmyverse.net

For some reason !weedtime@lemmy.world is not on browse.feddit.de but is on lemmyverse.net

Imagine going to university and graduating with "Addiction Expert" written out on your psychology degree lol

Yeah, again I never said you were wrong, just not the hill I'd die on for 40 dollars worth of compensation, If I were going to agitate and apply pressure at work it would be for a significant compensation boost to the tune of tens of thousands of dollars. This won't work for me as I'm in an senior level engineering position.

Management is absolutely filled with morons, otherwise they wouldn't be in management, they would be in engineering doing something worthwhile. So this literally happened. We used to get stipends and we moved to a new PEO (outsourced HR) and no longer do. Many people complained about it and we were told tough luck. We have to use the MS Authenticator App. True story: last year a lot of people started complaining and agitating and talking about the app and other things that disappeared and they did a disappearing act too in layoffs because sales were down last year.

The sales this year are in the toilet, I'm probably getting a raise this year but half the people at the company probably aren't. I'm not going to start pushing around my weight and seniority over 40 dollars. I would do that over the minimum 11% raise I need this year to cover inflation instead. I do not live in a place with worker protections, I am a resident in the US in a state that allows employers to fire you with no cause (at-will) and union bust (right-to-work). My salary is way higher than an equivalent in other countries so for now this pays the bills and I'm incentivized to hold on to this at least until I know I have another opportunity or contract. Right now I don't so I'm not going to be worrying about using my phone for work. Who fucking cares lol.

I've worked in the US for over 20 years and can't imagine a single case where your plan would actually work without being retaliated against and fired a year or so later. I'm in both an at-will and right-to-work state. Again, if I were going to die on a hill and start an action against my employer that includes lawyers and risk losing everything, it would be for much higher compensation than 40 dollars a month.

I figured this all out and it was all my fault. I had a WAF rule blocking fediverse traffic on by accident and my instance had the allow list configured by me while stoned and I didn't realize that blocked everything that wasn't on it.

You don't live in reality if you think anyone is going to retain a labor lawyer and sue their employer over using an authenticator app without a phone stipend.

The circus of American politics has been going on for 250 years since you genocided the people who lived there first and set up your entire perpetually corrupt oligarchy. All American politicians are majorly corrupt not sure why you would put that in scare quotes. You live in a military empire that maintains order with nuclear violence.

Why on would I doxx myself to you creeps on Lemmy, weird that you are asking for my personal info

I'm also free to comment and say whatever I want

I'm just tired of hearing about your loser election in your loser country.

You're totally ok to not care that the leader of your country is a corrupt octogenarian with a corrupt family. Both of the "choices" you have are the same in your horror show of a country

If I weren't about to be the victim of American foreign policy regardless of who wins the election I would find it hilarious that the American system is so dysfunctional that half of Americans will make excuses for the fact the presidents failson filmed himself smoking crack with hookers and recklessly driving with guns because the alternative is they think their rigged elections will select Hitler.
