  • To live in the community, Orwoll told CNN: “You have to be someone who identifies with your European heritage and ancestry. You have to celebrate traditional European values and we get those values from our religious documents within Christianity, within Norse paganism.”

    Wait, Norse isn’t christian. Wait a minute, the Norse were burning christian churches in the 90s!

    “We value our heritage, not just because that’s our race and we’re all about skin color, but also because we care about traditional European music and art and European history, and we want to raise our kids in an environment where all of that is celebrated, not attacked.”

    Your religion is from the fucking desert in the fucking middle east, my guy. It was spawned by a jew who went against the establishment in Rome. I’m an atheist and I promise you that I know more about the history of your religion than you do, you stupid racist fuck. Also, Jesus was probably brown, dickhead.












  • That’s why it’ll be a shock to the system when on May 21, nearly 45,000 of Samsung’s unionized workers plan to walk off the job for 18 days. If that happens, it will be the largest work stoppage in the history of the semiconductor industry, at the single most important chokepoint in the AI supply chain.

    Suck it, AI companies. I use an agent to help me code projects and it’s genuinely useful. But these companies are leaches and they deserve a good kick in the balls. See price hikes due to shortages because of their build-outs. I’m very fortunate that I am not in need of any hardware (at the moment! hope nothing fails!), but I’m still very mad about how it’s affecting people.

    Last September, SK Hynix settled with its own union to allocate 10% of annual operating profit directly to employees as performance bonuses for the next decade, while removing caps on bonuses. Based on 2026 profit forecasts, that translates to average payouts of $460,000-$477,000 per worker this year across SK Hynix’s 35,000 staff, with projections approaching $900,000 per person next year. This is nothing new for SK Hynix: it already paid profit-sharing bonuses averaging about $95,000 per employee this past February.

    Holy shit. The next time someone tries to tell you unions are bad, point them to this.

    Side note: I’m literally trying to figure out and schedule time off before it expires that was won for me by my union. I didn’t know about it and it’s per-pay period so I got an automated email telling me to use it or lose it. What a great problem to have.


  • Don’t let them divide us. I just (five minutes ago) responded to what I think is a pretty clear plant (see misspelling of Mamdami’s name). Whether someone isn’t “Left-enough” to you or whatever, if they want to help people and want to beat the Repubs, try to bring them along.

    There’s the trope that Leftists fight each other and the right have solidarity. The first part is true. The second part is only true in that they unite around hate and fear and bigotry. That’s why the orange dickbag kept firing his cabinet in the first admin. And though he brought a bunch of sycophantic ass-kissers this time, he’s finally removing them too.

    Let’s work together to put these assholes in prison.




  • More Mandani’s

    Ok, this person is a fucking troll trying to sew division on the Left. Zorhan Mamdani proved that young people want progressive politics. This person doesn’t know how to spell his name and they’re claiming he’s the reason we need to keep supporting Dems and “take over” the party when it’s clearly already captured by the corporate class.

    I think this person might be a right-wing plant trying to sabotage Leftist solidarity. They (the right) play dirty. Watch out. Don’t become divided (said the person calling someone a plant; the irony is not lost on me).

    Footnote: a person who genuinely cares about politics enough to want to take over the Dems with progressives would know (or at least look up) how to spell the name of the person they were using in their argument. A person who only wants to sew division might be stupid and not know they should double-check the spelling.
