“We’re on the right track,”
They, the owning class whose mountain of wealth just keeps growing at our expense, and their short sighted mouthpieces, are. That’s all that matters to those who value money more than people.

Biden is reacting to all of this in exactly the same way anyone else in his shoes would.
He’s starting to react exactly the same way trump and many others on the right do, and is gaslighting his voters the same way, too (like by dismissing the perfectly valid concerns as “drama”)…
That is to say it may very well be down to age, but it’s also just the textbook behaviour of politicians who are there to serve themselves, the filthy rich establishment, and the status quo they all need to survive.
You said
I’m not really sure what difference it makes what type of facility she’s put into. My understanding is that you don’t get to interact with anybody in solitary, regardless of gender.
You also said
I might not be understanding something
But no mention of timeline. 🤔
Though even if you had mentioned the timeline, the quote I pasted from the top of the article is pretty clear about that.
But no, you were clearly “misunderstanding” why it matters if she’s in male-prison solitary or female-prison solitary, while deliberately ignoring the key fact that she shouldn’t be in solitary in the first place. Or you simply just didn’t read the article.
Either way, putting your hand up to say “my bad” isn’t hard to do, and it makes you look a lot less like you’re here in bad faith than doubling down like you are now does.
Maybe actually read the article? This is right at the top:
When Kim realized she was being removed, she asked to speak with her lawyer and see paperwork authorizing the transfer, which was denied. Kim then refused to walk as commanded, at which point she was allegedly thrown to the ground by guards, who tied her ankles and wrists together and put her in the back of an SUV, she said. At Monroe Correctional Complex, Kim was put into solitary confinement, for allegedly “refusing transfer.”
She wouldn’t be in solitary confinement if they hadn’t moved her.
And I’m sure that isn’t the only case either…
Let me let you in on a little secret, because the title implies otherwise - wildlife protection was never a priority, and will never become one, to any company under capitalism, but especially to a company like that.
And I bet the, almost exclusively rich, people who actually created the mess (I would guess the vast majority of climbers have been there in the past 20-30 years) won’t even contribute to fund this, never mind actually clean up after themselves like they should have in the first place (and like those still swarming the sacred monument continue to do in exchange for the ego boost they’re there to seek).
That sucks. I had an issue at first with it only giving the option for android even though I’m on pc, but eventually I managed to get it right, I think there was another sub menu or something, I can’t remember exactly since it was a few months ago now… If that’s not it, I guess give some of the other options given here a try?
the RealPage algorithm
Which was programmed by humans, with biases and vested interests based in and fuelled by capitalism and the rest of the kyriarchy
I don’t see any value in saying that human behavior is the problem but then specifically carving out an exception for the automated agents we create to amplify specific behaviors.
Human behaviours. Machines don’t have their own behaviours, only those humans have programmed them to have, again, with those same biases and vested interests based in and fuelled by capitalism and the rest of the kyriarchy
When RedBubble ganks art and sells it on t-shirts, how is that different from when Stability ganks art and sells it at a text prompt?
It isn’t, both are automated systems designed by humans, you guessed it - with those same biases and vested interests based in and fuelled by capitalism and the rest of the kyriarchy
Convincing the working class that tools the system creates are free of the system’s agenda may be an even greater achievement.
And only picking examples of ways in which technology is used that are explicitly for profit is cherry picking and twisting reality. The existence of things like FOSS and other ways in which people share technology or otherwise use it to improve society without any profit motive proves you wrong.
AI isn’t intrinsically capitalist, just like computers aren’t, nor were steam engines or power looms. Capitalism convincing you that its way is the only way to use tools doesn’t mean that’s the reality, it only means the propaganda is working.
I got annoyed by something similar (E: also a google sign in pop up, in the same spot, though looks a little different than yours) not too long ago and found this worked:

I’m really glad you’ve found the information helpful, this kind of consideration and inclusion can only make a community stronger.
Just one more point I think I should have included: not all disabilities are visible - from autism to PoTS to chronic pain to mental illness, some people might look perfectly abled but actually face many barriers and challenges, so remember to include them too (and again, not that you would, but in general - don’t doubt or question someone’s disability, like questioning why someone who doesn’t “look disabled” parks in a disabled bay or uses the disabled toilets or can’t stand in a queue but needs to sit even if they look young and fit. Not being visible doesn’t mean whatever it is isn’t having a massive impact).
Anyway, I’ve rambled on enough, and you clearly get it, so I’ll end on a - solidarity, comrade!
But nothing is actually necessary. It depends on what you want to achieve.
Food, water, shelter, sustainability, those are necessary (as are human rights and an equal, equitable, and just society), commodifying the necessities of existence and survival of the human race to make a handful of people massive amounts of money and power never has been, and never will be, necessary.
The speed of innovation might have gotten a big impulse by capitalism

I’m not sure if we’d technologically be where we are
Lmmfao again, thanks
Truth is you’ve been brainwashed, by capitalism to think it is a good, necessary, and even natural thing, when in truth it has existed for the tiniest blips in human history (and in its short existence has cost, and continues to cost tens of millions of lives annually, not to mention the health of the planet, and that of the remaining working class), and you’ve been taken in by an appeal to tradition, rather than truth or reality, to ensure you don’t start considering what is outside of the box, or system, you’ve been trapped in since birth.
And evidently, it’s worked.
Very much this, and also - Starmer is a neoliberal, he plays for and by the rules of capitalism, which puts his interests in direct contradiction with acting to slow climate change and deal with its inevitable consequences, and hold those responsible accountable. I see a few acts of greenwashing at best, while the corporations exploiting people and resources for profit will continue to do just that. He might even end up making it easier for them, after all, he prides himself on being pro-business.
Don’t forget his 115 grand of the taxpayers money that he’ll be getting every year for the rest of his life for "office costs and secretarial costs arising from his special position in public life” as well as severance and a special pension. Pocket change to him of course, but you know he’s going to claim every single penny of it just for the joy of fucking over regular people, and then probably invest it in arms manufacturing or oil and coal companies or private prisons or something else evil like that, as a treat.
Yeah, yeah, “not all”, only enough to make sure there isn’t even a hint of socialist influence left in the party. Also, he doesn’t have to personally have removed someone from the party, for his actions and the actions of those who would fall in line with his establishment backed agenda to affect members of the party being sabotaged out of the party or leaving because they were made to feel unwelcome. The few that are left are relegated to the back benches and left with no real power to speak of.
In this thread there is already evidence of his dirty, unethical, and down right bigoted tactics, you not being comfortable enough to confront it doesn’t change the reality - Labour under Starmer is a neoliberal party that is serving capitalists and the establishment, and doesn’t have a hint of socialism nor solidarity or concern for the working class left in it (because when it does prop up as enough of a threat to the status quo, the threat is removed by whatever means necessary, it’s not like he has to go far when he’s deliberately stacked the party with other bootlickers who easily tighten ranks against anyone they no longer want around).
Obviously they won’t because that same system put them in power
Yes
and is currently holding far-right at bay
No, they’re acting as an establishment backed placeholder while the right regroups in preparation for a surge even further right next elections (when they get to blame all of the countries problems on “lefties”). Also the far right has made pretty significant gains this election.
Either way though you’re right - he has no reason to fix the voting system. People really need to let this sink in - Starmer isn’t there for the good of the country or the people, but his own and that of the establishment.
Absolutely, in case anyone needed more proof that the guy is 100% dedicated to the establishment and furthering his own career, not working class, and definitely not otherwise marginalised people (sadly, many do, so spreading this kind of info far and wide is not only welcome, but necessary).
Lol, it’s working perfectly well already, in case you haven’t been paying attention, those still blindly loyal to Biden, as well as the “blue no matter who” crowd are proving you wrong every day.
Until people like you confront the fact that we have ALL been conditioned to accept this farce, and that those on both teams serve the same people (billionaires) and use the same tactics (empty promises, flat out lies, gaslighting, manipulating, even love bombing) they just appeal to different sensibilities so your bias tells you the one that appeals to you isn’t that bad actually, we will never break free from this circus.
