What democracy? The one where the people in power get a vote that matters and I get a vote that they can overturn?
Yeah, that's not democracy. You never had it to begin with.
The trick is to always be unavailable on your days off and never answer your phone. Unless you want the overtime, of course.
Cake is not bread.
According to Urban Dictionary, cake is: Another word meaning ass or butt.
Bread is: The shit you throw at ducks to get them to fuck off.
Damn, the Krackkker Capital needs to step up it's propaganda game if this is what the competition's look like. That shit is dope.
This isn't an attack on your comment, which gave quality information, but I think it's relevant to the conversations linked in your comment.
Their definition of authoritarian is a contradiction to their actions and used subjectively. "I hate authoritarianism, so we should defederate to keep out the authoritarians." This statement is supportive of a fundamentally authoritarian action.
This is also why people who use the term "tankies" seriously are themselves deeply unserious. Their understanding of the topic is superficial at best and colored only by Western biases rooted in anti-communist propaganda. The concept of authoritarianism was itself a product of propaganda.
Saying "no" is authoritarian. Holding elections is authoritarian. Authority itself doesn't matter, what matters is who is in power and how they use their power to influence the world.
Some people recognize and accept this reality and then openly support the power that best aligns with their own benefit.
Anger at tankies is usually just a lack of class consciousness and ignorance based on a term that changes based on who you support and who you do not.
How dare you not share the reference in a link too!
The CaCO3 concentration where boiling was most effective (>80% of the measured polymers removed) was >120 mg/L. This is hard water, so if your local area doesn't have particularly hard water, this method won't be effective.
A very general guide for the US on hard water levels by state.
More like infamous.
...did you read anything any of us have given you?
Lol, you know liberals choose not to read. I'd poke fun by saying they can't read, but that would be giving them too much credit.
"Do your fucking dishes," is my guess.
I love you and how you take the time to call out all of these comments.

That's an automatic, "a union rep will be present for every conversation even if it's just to piss you off" type of situation for me. Put those shithead managers in their place and show them who really has the power. I think you can safely advocate for them talking to their union in any case, granted, I hope it's an actual labor union, not a business union, or chances are they won't do anything. I'd expect Teamsters to do good by them.
This "managers getting pissy" situation is where you bring a vote to the union so the next contract requires a union rep present for every conversation between managers and workers unless the worker explicitly waves that right. Management does not get a say because they crossed a line they shouldn't have. They do not get to be pissy about it or there are consequences.
Zero tolerance for getting between workers and union reps. Zero tolerance for union busting activities. Give those fuckers an inch and they will pull the whole rug from under your feet.
I think it's tougher to show people this unless they are actively part of a union organized and operated by the workers they represent. When they have this connection, they can directly see how powerful they are through their collective actions and this understanding carries over into other parts of life.
When you are part of a union that doesn't have a direct connection to the workers and when you don't participate in your union (sometimes because it's a PoS business union), it tends to leave you disconnected from the process (and results) of organizing. It leaves you feeling powerless, much like with voting in liberal democracies, where you know your vote doesn't really matter and those who are supposed to be advocating for you don't care about you.
