The miniature side table is killin me. xD
Ah cool, just complain and don’t offer any alternative suggestions. Glad you can come up with countless ways how you might personally be inconvenienced in the short term.
Unfortunately, if you think a brief traffic stoppage is bad, you might be unhappy to learn what happens if we don’t turn this around. Mass drought and famine, skyrocketing food prices, flooding, days you can’t even leave your house. Does that sound more or less inconvenient?
There is a time when the operation of the machine becomes so odious, makes you so sick at heart, that you can’t take part; you can’t even passively take part, and you’ve got to put your bodies upon the gears and upon the wheels, upon the levers, upon all the apparatus, and you’ve got to make it stop. And you’ve got to indicate to the people who run it, to the people who own it, that unless you’re free, the machine will be prevented from working at all!
What better way to throw a wrench in the gears than to stop people from working? From stopping their labour being squeezed of value?
What method would you suggest that has more impact? Do you think asking nicely is effective? People have been directly blocking these companies for years, and nothing has changed. More drastic action is necessary. The only thing I can think of that’d possibly be more effective is essentially full on eco-terrorism, and I don’t think we’re there yet.
These climate protesters are heroes.
Yeah, this absolutely smells like a corporate culture issue, not a one off glitch in QC. Fuckups of this magnitude shouldn’t be possible without multiple failsafes breaking and people ignoring protocol. Not to say that “perfect storm” events don’t ever happen, but it seems like the less-likely possibility to me.
Dear judge Christopher Hehir,
I hope your grandchildren never forget your deplorable actions.
I don’t like to post links to reddit, but holy cow, is this ever a shitshow.
