You know what I'm gonna start posting about Trump even harder

Also just plain no. Americans have been waiting for this for the past few years and it's fucking cathartic

If you pay attention super close to the videos they all have black teeth that are barely noticeable unless you're paying attention

It's the same in my state but unemployment is only a fraction of what you made hourly

Yeah but you forget that the same systems that bolster white supremacy also works against poor white people.

So me.

Plus I'm talking about slavery in general not just "black people bad" slavery. Slavery without racism I should say

Everyone says this but in reality we're worse.

They were smart enough to look for the smartest man alive and have him fix it.

Irl people could only dream of having that kind of clairvoyance

Yeah but being an asshole is usually excusable if you're actually right.

Like I can be an asshole about trans rights because if you don't support them you're a pos.

But being an asshole because black people can vote just makes you an asshole.

That's why I said functionally. Like yeah I know I'm nowhere near enduring what actual historic slaves did.

I'm simply breaking it down to "forced to work without consent" and you could argue that I have the ability to not consent and therefore not work.

But wouldn't ya know it food water and housing all cost money! And wouldn't ya know it the people that sell these things are the same people that sign my paychecks!

I have to work for the money just so I can give that money right back to my employer. When slavery was first abolished in America slave owners created sharecropping. Where you're still functionally a slave but technically you're not you just have to keep working in order to afford enough money to pay for the "housing" they provide. You have to eat but they deduct every bite taken out of your pay.

This is what is happening to a large number of people in modern day America the only difference is you have the illusion of choice between employers. Even though most of those employers will do practice the exact same policies.

This is all coming from someone who's poor af who lives paycheck to paycheck because prices keep going up while my wage stays the same causing me to not have any real life outside of work because I can't afford more than 2 days off a week.

I am functionally a slave. I'm a well treated slave but still a slave.

That's why I brought up a restructuring. The ability to quit whenever should always be an option but being fired without notice for anything that isn't just gross incompetence/negligence should not. I should be able to quit because my manager pissed me off. I shouldn't get fired because I pissed the manager off.
