Re:Heathrow tells airlines to stop selling additional flight... by rtkwe on Tuesday July 12, 2022 @05:53PM (#32076175)
It's the kind of bullshit people got shot fighting against 100 years ago then we've slowly slid back over time to a different but still quite shitty place for workers. The labor movement in the US has unfortunately been neutered over time, maybe it'll make a come back now that it's becoming a bit more clear the US's fortune in the later 20th century might be more down to coming out of WW2 untouched rather than the glory and perfection of the US system.

> why they're racist

You’re mad about the right thing (the system is rigged towards money controlling everything). Your anger has been directed in the wrong direction (immigrants, et al.).

This is a class issue. The affected classes are disproportionately weighted, but include everyone who isn’t at the top with working class laborers taking a significant brunt and undocumented immigrants getting massively exploited.

The system is doing what it was designed to do and it’s destroying itself from within.

The problem is the owners. Sowing distrust among affected groups is how they stymie class solidarity.

No it's not. What gave you that idea? That I spoke a simple truth? I never said it is immigrants who are a problem or who I hate, it's the ruling class.

You are exactly the person I'm talking about -- calling me racist for daring to even discuss it. Well, not you actually, but the people who have convinced you that most of the working class are hordes of racist nazi white supremacists. I'm sure you mean well.
