So, #Shopify CEO Tobias #Lütke, whose company commands a market capitalization near $154 billion, told his social media followers this week that a tax-tiered voting system—one that would strip #voting #rights from anyone who pays no income tax—would be a “good system.” Under this proposed system, the disenfranchised bloc would encompass all retirees living on Social Security and pension income, students, caregivers, disabled Americans, and millions of low-wage workers who owe no net federal income #tax after deductions and credits. All so billionaires could have many votes. Like lobbying doesn’t exist. Tying the right to vote to wealth or tax contribution has a name: “census suffrage,” or property-qualified voting which entrenched the political power of the already wealthy and locked out workers, women, and minorities from any say in the laws governing them. We’re not going back. Fuck all of that. #Guillotines to the front, please. https://xcancel.com/tobi/status/2081191155543278015

This is why corporations do not even bother to negotiate with unions in #Canada. "Steven Tufts, a labour expert and associate professor at York University in Toronto, told CBC News he expects the government will intervene if the strike goes longer than a day or two." #Guillotineshttps://www.cbc.ca/news/canada/westjet-strike-day-one-travellers-9.7294691 #CdnPoli

Y'all...I was gonna have a quiet day..poke a paintbrush at a thing, bake some rye bread, make a cabbage roll...and then...I read about maga losing their damn minds about birthright citizenship. Bespectacled suppository Sean Davis, head of The Federalist had a 7 point plan ranging from "sterilize all women entering the country" to "dissolve the union". So...yeah...he's a perfectly normal human, doing perfectly normal things. Abandoned Victorian doll haunted by unrepentant nazis Stephen Miller said that people who didn't invent the wheel shouldn't be allowed in the country...which is so unhinged I don't even know what to do with it. (ctrl+f Miller in transcript) Honestly ya'll, the lengths these cultists will go to massage Demented Daddy's ego is mind blowing. They'll kill us all if we don't stop them. https://newrepublic.com/article/212708/transcript-maga-wants-force-women-pee-cups-airports https://www.timesnownews.com/world/us/us-news/sterilize-all-foreign-visitors-trump-ally-sean-davis-floats-new-plan-after-supreme-court-birthright-citizenship-ruling-article-154829608 #gop #birthright #14th #constitution #guillotines #US
