Welcome to c/news! Please read the Hexbear Code of Conduct and remember... we're all comrades here.
Rules:
-- PLEASE KEEP POST TITLES INFORMATIVE --
-- Overly editorialized titles, particularly if they link to opinion pieces, may get your post removed. --
-- All posts must include a link to their source. Screenshots are fine IF you include the link in the post body. --
-- If you are citing a twitter post as news please include not just the twitter.com in your links but also nitter.net (or another Nitter instance). There is also a Firefox extension that can redirect Twitter links to a Nitter instance: https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/addon/libredirect/ or archive them as you would any other reactionary source using e.g. https://archive.today . Twitter screenshots still need to be sourced or they will be removed --
-- Mass tagging comm moderators across multiple posts like a broken markov chain bot will result in a comm ban--
-- Repeated consecutive posting of reactionary sources, fake news, misleading / outdated news, false alarms over ghoul deaths, and/or shitposts will result in a comm ban.--
-- Neglecting to use content warnings or NSFW when dealing with disturbing content will be removed until in compliance. Users who are consecutively reported due to failing to use content warnings or NSFW tags when commenting on or posting disturbing content will result in the user being banned. --
-- Using April 1st as an excuse to post fake headlines, like the resurrection of Kissinger while he is still fortunately dead, will result in the poster being thrown in the gamer gulag and be sentenced to play and beat trashy mobile games like 'Raid: Shadow Legends' in order to be rehabilitated back into general society. --

MODERATORS
Is this effectively a 6 week paid vacation?
They hardly work at all. It's amazing how powerful simple propaganda can be - phrasing for example. They call their paid vacations "recesses" and Americans don't even pay attention.

I did a little googling.
Well duh, when are they supposed to go on extravagant outings with all their lobbiests
As If legal insider trading isn't enough of a perk - they can have a working dinner and chomp on a $300 meal on the lobbyists dime. And they travel to Paris or London or wherever for free. They pretend they actually go to lectures on climate change when they sightsee. Meanwhile Evil Corp is greenwashing and their execs are laughing.
When else are they supposed to impregnate their mistresses... Or get an abortion for the last one for that matter?
They get this constantly.
Ideally it supposed to be so they can go home and meet with their constituents, but that never happens. They’re afraid of us.
