@Virginicus As long as the train driver doesn’t want to chat to me that’s fine, but I’m worried they’re overworked if they are answering everyone’s journey planning requests AND driving the train. 😂

So wait, let me get this right. Creatures have been roaming the planet for millions of years, thousands of years ago humans come along, and around three hundred years ago capitalism kicks in with its "endless growth" and "endless extraction" bullshit and already the planet is wrecked, there's climate chaos, and we're experiencing our hottest years ever and people are getting burns from touching the fucking pavement, and the capitalist class and their spokespeople in power don't give a shit because they're confident they and theirs will hold out on resources way longer than the rest of us, at the barrel of a gun if they have to, since there'll be enough desperate fools to accept scraps to keep protecting them from us. And in the meantime they'll continue to promote the same old filthy industries and agriculture, de-fund public transit, buy up social media to openly and proudly promote misinformation, and use their state and corporate media hierarchies to ensure ignorance towards the climate emergency like they have the ongoing pandemic, or just keep pushing back already-laughable environmental "targets" while they keep laughing at us, extracting resources and profits, filling their coffers, fucking the planet, and introducing sweeping surveillance and protest bans, to the point where someone like me, even with my privileges, will end up in prison just for existing or for anarchist thought; someone who never did shit to anyone, just dared to engage in (shock!) noncompliance in their wretched little system, doing no harm and taking no shit. Take care of one another! Organise! We can't aid and abet these policymaking mass murderers in sharp suits. We can't lose our humanity. After all, *humanity* never *was* compatible with capitalism.

What Big Tech is doing, firing people without prior notice, is absolutely disgusting.

But I am also pretty baffled at the amount of people who are shocked Google et al would do this.

What do you think Google is? An NGO? Your mum?

No. Google and everyone else are capitalist megacorporations. They seek profit above all. It doesn't matter what their motto is. All these things and perks Google had, like a slide, paid time to work on interesting projects, nap pods, and everything else, are all done in the name of capitalist profit, not because they're a cool company.

Creating a "cool company" culture is also part of the plan, so people are enthusiastic to work there, and they have a huge talent pool to choose from, in which the most privileged people are hired, and socially disadvantaged people are left in the curb to dream about one day joining Google.

Unionise, unionise, unionise.

Companies are not your friends. These companies all make record revenue and profits. This latest wave is a blood sacrifice to wall street, it is in no way necessary.

Do not listen to anyone who says otherwise. We are all disposable to them.

The markets do not work for us, we work for them.

Giving a quick shout-out to one of my favorite current-events podcasts, Work Stoppage at workstoppagepod.com/
They're at it every week with an update on unionization drives large and small, across the USA and beyond, providing the news and interviews with workers and labor activists on the front lines. Its very much worth your time.
