Tips keep the system afloat. The reason there aren't mass strikes demanding an end to tips is because the system works for most.
Sure, racial minorities are significantly discriminated against and many will receive hardly minimum wage with tips but the majority of tipped workers is fine with it. And that's all that is required for an unjust system to persist.
That's what I thought too, but wouldn't it be mentioned somewhere in the article? Like a line saying:
"The city government plans to demolish the bridge due to risk of collapse."
I don't believe it, at least not anymore.
Google has had more than enough data to train AI models from reCAPTCHA for many years. In 2010 it displayed 100 million captchas per day. You simply do not need hundreds of billions of solved captchas in your data set.
I feel like its only purpose nowadays is stopping basic bots and annoying people who don't let themselves be tracked as much as advertisers would like.
Maybe if you opened your eyes you would notice that sitting at a table full of fascists is slightly different than a state visit.
Quick breakdown:
Willy Wimmer is a German fascist - or as Wikipedia calls it "nationalist right-wing" former politician. He has written for the far-right extremist shitrag Compact, for "alternative media" (aka nazi blogs) and for Russian state media.
Cyril Svobado has been invited to observe Azerbaijan's 2013 presidential election and mentioned that everything was "fair and transparent". An election result was accidentally released before voting began in that election. He has also given an interview to "Voice of Europe" who are infamous for interviewing nazi politicians across Europe.
Emir Kusturica is a Serbian nationalist, supportive of war criminal Radovan Karadžić and has expressed support for the "Greater Serbia" ideology. He is a supporter of Russia's war against Ukraine and a "personal friend" of Shoigu.
Why is Jill Stein sitting on the same table as Russian-sponsored nazis?
I dislike the .not() method a bit because it inverts the meaning of the previous code snippet you've read.
if (list.isEmpty()...
"Ah, so if the list is empty..."
if (list.isEmpty().not())
"Goddammit"
Übrigens:
Laut https://www.tagesschau.de/inland/innenpolitik/asylantraege-tuerken-deutschland-100.html :
Von den rund 45.000 [türkisch] gestellten Erstanträgen von Januar bis Oktober 2023 entfallen knapp 38.000 auf Kurden.
In diesem Jahr liegt die Gesamtschutzquote, also der Anteil der positiven Asylentscheidungen, bei Türken bei 57 Prozent und bei kurdischen Türken unter fünf Prozent.
Und wieso so viel Ablehnung?
Doch noch immer werde die Einschätzung der türkischen Justiz übernommen, kritisiert sie. Die Menschenrechtslage werde auch auf Grund von politischen Gründen schöngeredet, so Judith
Übersetzung: Türkei klagt regimekritische Kurden wegen Terrorismus an, Deutschland übernimmt diese Auffassung in den meisten Fällen und daher wird kein Asyl gewährt.
50% of mythology is just fetish, just check out Greek mythology. People most definitely masturbated to mythology in the past based on the amount of fetish oozing out of the stories.
You can't tell me the ancient Greek equivalent to furries didn't think Zeus transforming into animals and fucking was hot.
The moment the protestors barricade your doors and physically prevent you from leaving your vehicle.
But during WW2 Britain didn't hold elections. Did this turn Britain into an autocracy?
And by the way, you literally can't hold elections if the aggressor is certain to attack polling stations. The US never had this threat, neither during the Civil War nor during WW2. Not a single US city was ever attacked by an enemy nation.
She had certainly enough agency to refuse to work at a concentration camp. It's not like those were the only jobs available for women at that time.
Also, not prosecuting her would likely be illegal since state prosecutors cannot decide to simply ignore crimes they don't feel like prosecuting:
§ Section 258a Obstructing prosecution in office
(1) If, in the cases referred to in section 258(1), the offender is appointed as a public official to cooperate in the criminal proceedings or in the proceedings ordering the measure [...] the penalty shall be a custodial sentence of six months to five years, or in less serious cases a custodial sentence of up to three years or a monetary penalty.
§ Section 258 Obstruction of justice
(1) Any person who intentionally or knowingly prevents, in whole or in part, another person from being punished or subjected to a measure [...] in accordance with the Criminal Code for an unlawful act shall be liable to a custodial sentence not exceeding five years or to a monetary penalty.
Murder is inhumane so let's cut off murderers' ears without anaesthesia, that's more humane than murder so it's all good.
Or maybe cut off a limb or two. Or maybe put them on drugs and torture them for a few months.
We are such an ethical nation.
What's so difficult?
