So I hear “cultural Marxism” a lot in right wing circles. What does this mean?

DEI lol

Cool

All modern workers need to unionize! Sorry if it’s socialist

Im serious tho….with today’s economic climate, most software engineers are essentially lower middle class

Us of a

No, not in my country. Unions are catered for blue collared workers, and they are kinda dying out due to policies favoring the robber barons.

Hear me out. With the current economic situation, your average software engineer, accountant, or any entry/mid level professional deal with job insecurity, uncertainty, and high exceptions from corporate leaders for their interests. Since unions were formed in the 19th century to protect factory workers from exploitation and greed of robber barons, why can’t we have something similar in the modern era for white collar employees as well? Why can’t we have a software engineer union, or an accountant union which gives your average working professional the infrastructure of support and legal backing during times of unfair and unclear corporate decisions? It would be nice if there was an entity that represented employees and demanded transparency from management for employees. Thoughts?

I think especially with the Eastern European countries that don’t have a history of colonialism and are still grounded in their indigenous cultures, it’s not fair to force them to allow and integrate thousands of migrants whose culture is different from theirs. There is no legacy of immigration to these countries as there is with the UK even, where in the past many migrants have settled from former colonies and other European countries. Much of the infrastructure in these countries are not built for immigration, but rather their own population (the same way the Congo government is for the Congolese and not for random migrants from another random part of the world).

Exactly

Honestly with Poland, it’s not a country built on immigrants but rather its own population. From their own sense of stage blue cultural conservatism, I can understand where they are coming from. However this would not make sense in countries built on/dependent on immigrant labor such as the US and Canada.

The most accurate reason backed facts, not politics:

In an ideal world it’s completely possible for meta and google to implement controls for fake vs real content. But no these billionaires decide to bend the knee and remove all censorship policies. Fake content and the speed at which it’s served to so many Americans is the biggest issue, because people think that they know fully about something before all the facts are released. The lack of regulation over the content spread on social media platforms is killing our society.

I mean we don’t have to point to the nazis….America itself has done things like this. We put people in internment camps for the sole reason of being Japanese. We had the bracero program, which was a deportation operation under Eisenhower, which led to the deportation of many Mexicans, many of whom were American citizens. So yea, our country has a long legacy of xenophobia and racism.

So what about those egg prices?
