It's not exactly hard. It's really simple. It's just shit to use.

It can definitely come from a positive place. I understand that. But it's massively insulting to assume they can just get over it and are choosing not to.

No it sends the message that they can do it. And that is massive all on its own.

It's designed to bring them to the table without starving the workers. Indefinite strikes would obviously be more effective but then you're forgetting about the people who do need the jobs.

How many people can actually survive not working for months? Principles are great but so is paying rent.

If nothing changes they can just do it again and at a time that hurts them most. Like election week.

Look up the windrush scandal in the UK. They can just change the rules and if you can't provide the required proof you'll get deported.

They have plenty of tools to kick out legal citizens.

It always goes up regardless. This isn't really a win. From what I can see they performed about the same under each.

after an investigation by The Fuller Project and The Markup found the department’s algorithm prioritized White, male veterans. It also gave preference to veterans who are “divorced and male” and “widowed and male” but not to any group of female veterans.

I get your point. But it's not like trump is going to side against Israel. Someone would have to be pretty stupid to vote for trump instead based on this issue.

This is unfortunately just America's official stance from all sides.

Real life trolling is much more fun!

You can turn an entire party against you by insisting jaws is a documentary.

Sounds like you have depression mate. Depression isn't about being sad but it's very good at making you ignore the positives while focusing on the negatives.

It takes hard work to sort out yourself and sometimes requires intervention. You are better off talking to your doctor.

English is the most spoken language outside of its home country and it uses the simplest alphabet.

It is a pretty sane choice.

You could write yourself a nice preprocessor
