That we do away with bosses/CEOs (or reduce their pay) because some people are in a tough spot financially?
That if you are coerced out of your supposed freedom with the threat of becoming destitute then that freedom is an illusion.

And I say we cut their ****in' heads off btw.

"Because some people are in a tough spot."

**** off.

Everybody I know is in a tough spot.

Downplaying poverty like a capitalist simp.

No matter what there will always be many many many many many many people forced to work **** jobs they hate or they starve in this system.

And yes, not only should people be paid a fair living wage but the safety net should be increased when we have a lack of jobs going around. The idea of people going with out because there isn't enough work that needs to be done is ludicrous.

Art Is Dead. Buy My ****.

CNN) Justice Ruth Bader Ginsburg has been taken to the hospital and treated for a possible infection, according to a court spokeswoman.

"Justice Ginsburg was admitted to The Johns Hopkins Hospital in Baltimore, Maryland early this morning for treatment of a possible infection," spokeswoman Kathleen Arberg said Tuesday.

"She was initially evaluated at Sibley Memorial Hospital in Washington, D.C. last night after experiencing fever and chills. She underwent an endoscopic procedure at Johns Hopkins this afternoon to clean out a bile duct stent that was placed last August. The Justice is resting comfortably and will stay in the hospital for a few days to receive intravenous antibiotic treatment."
Article doesn’t mention covid either way.

If she dies of covid America’s reaction shouldn’t be any different than if Trump pulled the trigger himself. Especially if he gets another pick.

When Obama didn’t get his pick, that’s when we should’ve been rioting. That was when all hope for this era died. That’s when we gave up.

The Trump administration is a death cult.

Even if she doesn't die, I think that silent sexual predator shit canoe
will announce his retirement soon because he's old and had enough -
coupled with the thought that some young pompous taint socket could
take his place. If she does die, then along with this, that'll make it 7-2.

Lol. Merrick Garland is anti-whistleblower and is pro-government on cases involving any kind of prosecution. Mitch would have nominated the guy himself in a timeline where Obama didn't.

A right-leaning centrist nominated a right-leaning centrist.
