- Comment on What is a worker's union? How does it internally work? How can a union make the affiliated company do stuff to benefit the union(why can"t a company just say: f*ck off to their demands)? 1 year ago:
well its all dependent on negotiating power of the union to cost the company profits if they strike and the trust in union that the company will not violate any contract they sign. The whole thing is dependent on the ability of the union to effectively strike and it doesnt always work and companies are willing to take a loss sometimes
- Comment on What makes a bicycle so expensive? 1 year ago:
lack of mass production probably and cuthroat capitalism. the expensive bikes cater to a niche of bike riders who the business knows can afford to buy them. a lot of these bikes have specialized parts made in specialized countries by craftspeople which up the price of production and in addition they offer some kind of free maintenance you are also buying. the real question is why are cars and other bike so cheap, and thats because of mass production factories and cheap manufacturing methods and economies of scale

this whole focus on “luster” reminds me of the luster of the pyramids
- Comment on Dating apps lose their luster with college students 1 year ago:
thats because its not a dating app at its core, its a make the company money app, you might get a date, but thats not their purpose. This isn’t a all capitalism is bad comment, I"m just pointing out the obvious. I dont go into the world not thinking I"m not trying to be manipulated. I understand some people are naive though, even perhaps college students in their “safe” spaces.

- Comment on YouTube is testing a mystery button that starts playing random videos 1 year ago:
I"m remarking on the “culture” of the internet users that if you introduce a new button they may not click it out of ignorance.

yea you’re just saying they’re okay with it as long as they are a minority and have no authority or power (if we are assuming majority rules?) isn’t that the apartheid people are speaking of? What happens if jews in tunisia start rapidly reproducing and immigrating there, like mexicans comining to the USA? Sure, they’ll be okay with that.
- Comment on [deleted] 1 year ago:
Fun fact… “palestine” was south dakota to the arabs around it, which is why jews were able to quickly buy up and settle major portions of the land. not many people wanted it in the condition it was in. I know that people dispute this, but I’m still waiting to hear the proof of the fertile land and economic powerhouse it was that almost left it abandoned by the major powers of the time (ottomans)
- Comment on [deleted] 1 year ago:
They’re not actually. Its more like the enemy of my enemy sort of thing, thats the reason so many jews ended up in Israel in the first place because of the anti–semitism and discrimination, genocide, etc, you name it in western countries.
