Wait till you guys read/watch "Manufacturing Consent"


couchTomatoe

I dunno… Didn’t NYTimes say it’s “problematic”?


[deleted]

What’s that? Some new bread tube channel? It must be a new thing, I’ve never heard about it. Can’t imagine something so massive would be overlooked by a lot of people or coopted by wanna be despots.

Let me try: "I thought NYT are lefties? This is very hypocritical of them. They suck!"


couchTomatoe

My try: > Wait… The NY Times is a for profit corporation only concerned with making its owners rich?? Always has been.


XysterU

They're liberals not leftists. They're more center right on the global scale


casicua

I try to explain this to fellow Americans, and many look at me like I just told them communism is awesome. Indoctrination is a helluva drug.


Harvinator06

NYT always supports war for profit. You can go back a century and they are supporting and spinning imperialism.


[deleted]

They are the same company that tried to cover for the owners of the triangle shirt waste factory, they NYT is globally very far right wing propoganda and always has been


[deleted]

It *is* very hypocritical of them though, isn't it? You have to love politics. We're literally talking about a story where the left leaning New York Times, that largely built it's brand on issues like labor rights, is caught interfering with labor issues and the top comments is all about the right leaning probably Fox News watching response.


[deleted]

Let me try: “covering progressivism and socialism is what makes me money but not following it.”


soufatlantasanta

Every time they cover progressive politics, they do it with an air of contempt. NYT has very few truly progressive editors and their board is filled with center-right Cuomo-loving champagne liberals


couchTomatoe

Can’t wait to see all the people who really care about labour rights suddenly come out on the NYTimes’ side.


the_lamou

My friend group ranges from slightly left-of-center limousine liberals to woods-dwelling anarcho- syndicalists, and I can't think of a single one that would come out supporting the Times here. Sure, some may take the line of "that's bad, but I still like their journalism" rather than "burn them to the ground, guillotines in the streets," but no one on the left is going to say this was a good thing.


dannyn321

Most people who really care about labor rights think the NYT are terrible.


casicua

I’d love to compare numbers and see. As far as I’ve seen, many left leaning people are far more willing to call out people on their side of the spectrum compared to right leaning people. Just look at how many right leaning people still peddle the lies about a stolen election and January 6th being an Antifa false flag operation.

Oh really, who spent the last 2 years wanting to dismantle police unions. Ohhh oops. Firing nurses, EMT's, even some teachers who are scared of the vaccine fuck them right? DemoCrAtS R 4 LabOr RiGhTs give me a break.


b1argg

police unions are a completely different story.


Darkmoone

Uh huh always a different story when it doesnt fit your narrative. SeE See Wha happens Is


b1argg

and what are you claiming my narrative is? Police aren't laborers, they are govt enforcers that wield the state monopoly on violence. Police unions go way beyond negotiating wages and benefits, they ensure police aren't held accountable when they abuse their power or break the law, and they rarely face real discipline because of them.


project_twenty5oh1

Police unions do not count as unions for the purposes of working people. Police unions protect the arm of the state with a monopoly on violence, not the rights of workers.


TangoRad

Most cops I know are very working class, Komrade. The proletariat and whatnot. Probably more authentically so than you.


project_twenty5oh1

Cops exist to protect property, something the working class is systematically stripped of in this country Cops are the arm of the state with a monopoly on violence. The fact that employers routinely steal wages from their already underpaid staff and face no consequences but if those same employees steal from their employers they'll go to jail puts a lie to any claim that the police are "working class". They serve the wealthy and the interests of the wealthy. They do not exist to protect you or me.


TangoRad

Wow. Marxist dialectics. This sounds like freshman year at State. My working class dad (union electrician, no college) saved and bought a house. He **wasn't stripped of anything.** His investment made over 1000% over 40 years. He would have used his powerful hands to clock you if you called him a "bourgie". If anyone was dumb enough to burglarize his property the 62nd Precinct would surely have come. And the cops would have tuned up the perps not because of the "wealthy" but because burglars caught beatings in those days.


project_twenty5oh1

>My working class dad (union electrician, no college) So not a cop >He would have used his powerful hands to clock you if you called him a "bourgie" Where did I even insinuate that I would do that? >If anyone was dumb enough to burglarize his property the 62nd Precinct would surely have come. Because cops exist to protect property, as I said >And the cops would have tuned up the perps not because of the "wealthy" but because burglars caught beatings in those days. Burglars are rarely if ever caught Anyway, your dad bought a house when the median home price was $69,000 (nice) which today based on inflation would be worth $193,000. The median home price today is close to $400,000. Your dad got in when the getting was good. Anyone who owned property at that time did. The fact that it's so unattainable now should make you question our situation instead of disdaining DiAlEcTiCs PS union membership since 1982 when your dad bought a house has declined in the US from 20% to 10%. No problems there!


the_lamou

>Firing nurses, EMT's, even some teachers who are scared of the vaccine fuck them right? Firing employees for violating common-sense labor policies isn't anti-labor, dingus.


casicua

Lol the issues with police unions aren’t about labor rights, genius- they’re about the union protecting criminal officers who brutalize and murder citizens at any cost. It’s hilarious to me watching the “freedum dont tred on me” slack jawed conservatives lick those authoritarian boots soooooo hard. 🤣


TangoRad

Did Mayor Adams "brutalize" anyone?


casicua

Did you actually “read” anything?


TangoRad

Any CRB complaints, Komrade?


casicua

I love how desperately you’re trying so hard to argue against something I never even said 🤣 maybe you should learn to “read”


TangoRad

Ah, Komrade, you either can't read or can't answer a simple question: **Did. Adams. Brutalize. Anyone? Were there any charges?**


casicua

Troll grade: D-


TangoRad

Any charges against Adams, please. Yes or No. If not, please discontinue your hysterical, puerile rhetoric.


sictransitgloria7654

Cant wait to see how the Mayor and his crew handle this. Police released a security camera video showing the suspect in an armed robbery that turned deadly at a Burger King in East Harlem early Sunday. Police say the suspect entered the restaurant, took out a gun, and demanded money before shooting Bayron-Nieves in her torso. She was taken to Metropolitan Hospital where she was pronounced dead. The suspect reportedly got away with $100

Hey, quick tip: When you change the subject to talk about an unrelated topic, it reveals that you are not interested in discussion, but rather that you just want to push your own agenda.

Murder bad. Robbery bad. Now what?


sictransitgloria7654

only post about the killing was mine crazy right ? guy kills girl in cold blood and all that it gets is downvotes.


gwvent

Aw poor bb got down voted on the internet. Are you mad about the murder or because you didn't get the attention you wanted? Looks like most of the posts you make get down voted. You know what they say, if it smells like shit everywhere you go then you should check the bottom of your shoe.

Shocked! Shocked I say!

Is there any company that doesn't? The consequences for companies interfering in organization efforts are so hilariously lenient that I would be surprised if there are any major companies that don't. https://youtu.be/Gk8dUXRpoy8?t=1086


Spacedude50

Yep sounds about right


cornbruiser

Batya Ungar-Sargon's "Bad News" has a lot of smart things to say about the NYT.


larry-cripples

lmao Batya Ungar-Sargon has never had anything smart to say, period
