As they say, (willfull?) ignorance is bliss.

Of course they do. They are extremely impartial on the matter and I trust their judgment.

One of the major demands of the strike was the withdrawal of the trade deals India has recently agreed to with the US and the EU. The CTUs, SKM, and left parties in India have called the deals a surrender of the country’s sovereignty and harmful to the interests of the millions of farmers in the country as they allow open access of Indian markets to foreign farm products.

As someone not from India I think I must be missing context. It sounds like they would like India to remain a semi-closed market, as I have heard it has been for a very long time.

Usually trade deals are a viewed aa good thing, at least in the west. Of course, you can have situations where contries assets are owned and controlled by foreign entities while lining the pockets of politicians, which is bad. Not sure if that’s the concern.

Anyone want to add some context?

Let me guess:

It’s because all the money goes to billionaires.

Edit: Pretty much what it says. It’s more detailed than that but yeah. Labourers get less, more value is attributed to capital (buildings, land) and collected by the rich.

I just upload the image to Lemmy itself in my posts.

Every accusation, an admission of guilt.

But think of all that money Elon Musk saved by cutting funding to your vital services!

Sometimes the conspiracy theorists pop out of their echo chamber and make a statement that seems reasonable and widely accepted to them but can only be believed if you first believe 17 layers of propaganda, leaps of logic and generally brainrot. Usually all fed to them by bigots and billionaires.

They are then surprised by normal people clowning on them and instead of reflecting, they just tell themselves they know something the normies don’t and that makes them special.

I mean, they’re right. It’s a very well explained problem and reasonable question.

I guess here the “funny” is that the researcher did not consider this when writing questions, but it’s not particularly surprising.

Prison labour exploitation was already bad in the US before, when you actually had to be convicted of a crime to participate. Now we just have force labour camps for people who just happened to be born with the wrong genes.

Sounds awfully familiar.

When are the allies going to invade the US and free those under their tyrannical regime? When will the US get sanctioned? (Hint: never)

The trans activists are right, to be fair.

The only ones actively using the old pride flag are either people who don’t know any better or trans-exclusionary groups such as the LGB alliance.

We can do better, so we should.

Wait, this is real? I thought this was a joke…

Like “Back in my day, bananas were bright purple, but that breed died out.”

Best I can do is $50. Take it or leave it.

Edit: Oh, it’s DDR4. $30.

If you are speaking about the UK’s Labour party, in it’s current form I would describe it as further left than the US democrats, but further right than the actual left wing parties like the Greens, Your Party and Bernie Sanders (and any other tiny socialist groups).

To me, that means center-right generally. Fully right on certain issues such as immigrants and trans rights.

Before Kier Starmer and Labour Together, I think they were center-left. Many people within the party are still trying to do good things and vote against Labour’s worst policies.

The reason I hate Labour even more than the Conservatives is at least with the Conservatives you knew what you were getting. Here it feels like betrayal.
