I’m done with that place.
I am not sure how this relates at all to the “justice system”, however. Are private organizations only allowed to part ways with an employee because they committed crimes? This is not really about “guilt” that can be proven or disproven in a court case, and there are already mechanisms in place for people to be compensated if they can show that they were unfairly treated or if contracts were violated.
It wasn’t a fully formed proposal, honestly. You make a very good point.
Alternative take: Piracy is, at worst, morally neutral, and does not have a significant adverse effect on the profits of the people who produce media.
I wish companies would stop with subscription models.
It’s so cute!
I’m just going to keep calling it Twitter, and I’m honestly unsure of why everyone else, media outlets included, aren’t doing the same.
If Reddit had been any indication, the debate around Roiland’s culpability seems to polarize around the idea that since the charges were dropped he evidently must not have been guilty, and the idea that even though the charges were dropped, we have, through sheer coincidence, just now decided that his various past behaviors warrant immediate cancellation anyway (and that he’s totally guilty no matter what, either way).
I feel like the justice system needs to evolve in a way that protects people against social ostracism of this sort, should they turn out innocent. Even if Roiland himself is truly guilty, the fact that we live in a system where someone else who is innocent could feasibly end up in similar circumstances is unacceptable in a society as connected as ours.
This is your world on late-stage capitalism.
I think I’d rather not give the company money at all.
Paying for her cab fare home sounds reasonably polite.
When not even the companies take these massive documents seriously, it’s clear that we need to rethink how this all works.
This I didn’t know. So posting a comment on the microblog will make it visible to Mastodon as well?
They’re both Reddit-esque Fediverse platforms, but are developed and maintained by different people.
How so? This post is not stopping anyone from enjoying the app.
Nobody is not letting them be.
I will never call it “X,” just like I will never call Facebook “Meta.”
