I'd argue that's the case in most countries. Almost all ppl need is a singular common enemy to turn off their brain and latch onto facism. Ppl are so quick to accept the easiest solution to all their problems is getting rid of the foreigners. Propaganda wasn't created in the US, it just it's most recent victim

To be fair the French complain about their access to stolen modern day African money

At least I can sue a racist landlord. Good luck fighting discrimination against a corporation with an army of lawyers. And how exactly would corporations be the better choice in an ideal world? Their ONLY function is to make profits

Incredibly late response but yes. The direct result of collective American corruption in medicine was the opiod epidemic and the rejection of universal health care post WW2.

The American Medical Association - representing doctors - employed a public relations firm to lobby against the move. Cla

No thanks. Lemmy isn't great by any means but social media is poison and a direct cause of the current state of affairs

This is what I mean when ppl act like trump's brand of facism is brand new. Depending on who you are and what you look like this has always been a facist state.

What is the opposite of thoughts and prayers? Apathy and ill will?

They did. They were called the black panthers. They armed themselves and taught each other self defense. The white public thought the idea of brown ppl protecting themselves against facists like Ronald Regan was a bad thing so they were disarmed in California and were infiltrated by the FBI.

Yeah that 4 day work week might become a thing. You'll just work 17 hours a day. Samsung just extended their work weeks to 64 hours a week regarding semiconductors after complaining about the 52 hours limit. You guys are good at fighting facism and corruption as long as Samsung isn't involved. And your birthrate raised by .03 to .75. A healthy population needs like 2.1. And you guys are not immune from inflation and global markets so your cost of living has gone up like everyone else. And considering the poverty rate for the super young and the really old are sky high things aren't looking good.

I'm not trying to shit on South Korea but you guys are just as fucked as everyone else. It's no paradise
