Comment on We like to protect people with OSHA laws in the workplace but not during a peaceful public protest
ininewcrow@lemmy.ca 3 weeks agoThat’s the amazing thing about it … if we are working for them, then they’ll grudgingly do things to protect us and provide for our safety
… if we outright disagree with them and protest, then they’ll actively put us all in danger, to wound, blind, maim or even kill us until we conform.

That’s amazing is it? That they (grudgingly) take care of us while we are doing what they want, and hurt us until we fall in line when we don’t?
Seems a bar has been lowered while I wasn’t looking.

That’s what pisses me off … and all for what? So that we, the majority of people everywhere can enjoy a little of security and a livelihood where we don’t have to worry about losing our home and ability to eat and clothe ourselves? And what are they protecting? Their obscene amounts of wealth that no individual person could enjoy in a lifetime!

Oh, infuriating, certainly.
