It’s propaganda because it works. Unfortunately. Because now these are just known manipulation tactics proven to work. And we still don’t really have a way to fight them—except that one old fashioned way and, hey, Nazis can get killed as far as I’m concerned.

I mean, I get it. But I probably would. You’re talking millions and millions of euros PER YEAR. I say this as not a millionaire, but that’s the kind of money that you can be fine with for the rest of your life. Not to mention he’s a more habdsome, multi lingual footballer, so he could easily retire into a life of leisure making appearances, commentating, etc.

And we’re not talking about lowering from 27.7M to 100,000. We’re talking, like, worst case scenario wiping away bonuses and living of NINE MILLION a year.

These are multimillionaires. And we’re talking like they can’t be slightly less super wealthy? Cmon.

Well, the 2023/24 season, with bonuses and fixed salary, the reported figure is €27.7M. That’s a ton of money. The last president of the club was signing outrageous contracts, basically putting the club in the financial straits they’re in now. And during this time of absurd contracts/wages, La Liga was basically folding their hands saying go ahead. But now, with a new president, the wages have been slashed across the board, but Frankie is still on his old contract. And with Covid, there were deferments with payment, so that boosts the numbers a little.

All in all, Tebas is a piece of shit, but the last train wreck of a president basically walked hand in hand with tebas, destroying the club. Now that they’re trying to be financially responsible and wipe away the issues, La Liga keeps setting lower and lower thresholds for Barca to meet, while other clubs aren’t getting nearly as low of windows. It’s a shit show. It’s not Frankie’s fault, it’s largely Bartomeu’s fault, but Tebas is also gleefully holding down the club as much as possible. In the midst of all this, it’s nice to see the team turning things around finally. But I also say that as a fan. De jong is under no obligation to reduce his wages. But…it’s also like…the other years of massive amounts of money weren’t enough? And he’s been out injured for months. Eh. It’s just crazy the financial situation at Barca. Again, largely falling on the shoulders of bartomeu. Other players stepped in to help. Frankie didn’t. Those are just facts.

[McDonalds] said it cares “deeply” about all employees and promised that - working with franchisees - it would “play our part alongside government, NGOs [Non-governmental organisations] and wider society to help combat the evils of modern slavery”.

What fucking empty fucking tripe. They couldn’t give half a fuck. Burn all corps to the fuckin ground.

“WHY CANT YOU JUST BE NORMAL?!?”

Is that still true? Like, as in, updated in the past year-to-the-last-few-months? War (even though they’re not calling it war) is rising in many places.

Thanks, Woke.

I mean, for sure. He’s under no obligation. I was just stating the facts—he is the highest earner, he didn’t lower his salary when most other players have. That’s just what’s happening. He doesn’t need to do anything about that, but that doesn’t change those two things.

I mean, to be fair, de jong is the highest earner at Barca. He is cobrando mucho pasta. There’s no getting around that. A lot of players have reduced their pay while the club struggles under the strict financial regulations the league is imposing on them. De jong hasn’t.

“I mean, we would have to receive a pretty excellent offer to violate our customers’ privacy—which is super important to us. (We reserve the right to also accept offers ranging from “pretty decent” to “doable,” or in the event of our profits not really getting us hard anymore, we may also accept “any” offer.) Your privacy is very important to us.”

Flyer drop anti TJs info in your store, stop shopping there, wheat paste stories about their union busting ways onto their sidewalks and flyer cars in the parking lot. Picket the stores. Hang a big sign that says “shoplift from us, because we are stealing our employee’s right to representation.”

Jesus. Adam’s needs to go, and the fact that he’s utilizing the same exact corrupt tactics trump is trying to utilize—well, that should tell you everything. And Cuomo? Come the fuck on. We need new blood, not these types of fuckers who apparently can’t stop doing corrupt ass shit.

Wow the AI really did not know what to do with a cat’s paw holding that candle

Bananas in pajamas are coming down the stairs

Honestly, it feels even less final than that. From what I can gather, knowing next to nothing about loans and shit, this looks like they secured financing. This is a financing agreement, and doesn’t that mean that they just owe money to someone else? The lien was removed because someone else fronted them the money, no? Maybe an actual adult that has bought a house or a car can speak on this.

This fuckin world is so fucked up

What’s the need for private launch capabilities? Private = capitalist. I don’t see much good in capitalist ventures.

Didn’t people’s lackluster interest in the first one and the pitiful sales numbers convey that we don’t really give a shit?

Dude, the casting in Dark absolutely blew my fuckin mind, choom. I don’t want to spoil the plot in the seasons after the first by telling people who haven’t seen it what I mean, but if you’ve seen it you know exactly what I mean.

Yes.
