The Adblockalypse is coming

Essentially, the Supreme Court ruled that Henry Ford had to operate the company in the best interests of its shareholders, not his employees. It’s an awful ruling by the Supreme Court that has never been revisited.

[Man Utd] Club statement on Mason Greenwood

Reply in thread

This is almost worse for me. It is clear to everyone he did it, the recordings are there for everyone to listen to. The charges hung for so long because there was good evidence we don’t know of. They only went away because she refused to cooperate at the end.

Covering it up and saying he did not commit the offenses is total bullshit. But, as you said at least he’s gone. It’s a shame he won’t be held accountable for his actions, but that is a societal problem, not a Manchester United problem.

How are slavery reparations fair?

Reply in thread

So, American here. My family immigrated from Germany, Poland, England, and Italy (the nationalities of my four grandparents). My family never owned slaves, never owned farmland, never profited from any of that. Why should my tax dollars go towards paying reparations for something my family had no part in?

That’s the part that I struggle with. Should the families who directly profited off of slavery pay reparations? Perhaps. Should the families and individuals who had nothing to do with slavery? Absolutely not.
