  • If I recall, gay greeks existed but not the same as today since they did not have husbands and it was no where near as common as homosexuality today.

    I remember reading somewhere that it was still frowned upon but idk if that’s true. I might be mixing up the Roman’s. Take this comment with less than a grain of salt and if anyone knows otherwise I’d be interested to hear if I’m wrong.

    It must be so tiring pretending to care about every single issue of the world. You must be a real white savor. I hope all the struggling people can hang on long enough for you to come save them.

    I have empathy for others while understanding that their situation is outside of my control. I do small things like vote and help where I can but beyond that there is no point in harming your mental wellbeing when you are not in a position to help.







  • What does a democratic workplace look like? I’ve seen it work on a small scale but I can’t see how having people voting on the direction of the company has any value when their job is not relevant to making those decisions.

    The democracy comes in the form of shareholders. If you want a say in the company you must purchase part of the company and then you get a vote.

    I think thats for the following reasons. Because the c manager understands the value of investment long term and they believe they can impact the company in a positive way. They also likely have more disposable income.

    A factory line worker has very little control over the performance of the company. He wants his weekly pay to be in full cash and that’s it because he either has less disposable income or doesnt understand the value of investment.

    If the line worker wants to invest he would likely invest in another company than his own unless his company was preforming exceptionally well.

    Exactly so an extremely small subset of the population. Which is why capitalism is not being abolished and no one cares about criticism of capitalism but people gets annoyed when people start trying to implement other systems.
