  1. @mattwebbdev well I think we can agree US liberalism is built on colonialism and if I may expand upon the connection neocolonialism is a means of obscuring the master-slave dynamic and likewise (human-centric plant based diet activism)(a bit verbose)? obscures the abuse of non-humans by removing them from the conversations around their own liberation that they can't participate in themselves and sidelining important aspects of their exploitation (such as in entertainment, vivisection, fashion, manufacturing):

    • A "health" vegan might revert to eating fish (the largest category of non-human kills) the moment they are convinced it isn't unhealthy

    • An "environmental" vegan might still use leather products and such because its durable compostable and to not use byproducts of slaughter would just be a waste of resources and emissions

    And just like liberals will excuse colonialism in return for liberal domestic policy they will excuse non-human animal abuse that doesn't affect them (unless of course its one of the pre-approved causes for species favoured by a speciesist society)

  2. This is not **News** per se, by which I mean this is not a new development. In one form or another, precarious agricultural workers have been take *to the cleaners* over the centuries (from Australia’s colonial past to the present #NeoLiberal #NeoColonialism). Wherever there’s a buck to be made by skipping around laws and regulations, there is sure to be some clever arsehole that comes up with a scheme to vaccum up easy cash. That, is the state our society has come down to and some of the worst perpetrators of this *financial fraud* are #LabourHire companies. They provide nothing that can’t be had by other more equitable schemes and skim the cream off the top for the privilege of screwing workers. ** A pox on all their houses.**

  7. #Neoliberalism is killing #Norway.

    Yeah, I said it. It's going to fully convert us over to a #vassalstate and devolved #democracy into slaves under the tyranny of the foreign investor.

    The #US is in the hegemon here, but the #EU pivoting hard into the "if you can't beat the US, become the US" mentality just means we got two guns facing us at the same time.

    It's about time we do something about #neocolonialism, #oligopoly and foreign encroachment - and it starts with #Norwegian democracy.
