The tourist trade in Johnstown, Pennsylvania, can be viewed through a highly critical lens as an economy fundamentally built on "tragedy tourism" or "dark tourism." At its core, the city’s primary claim to fame relies on marketing a catastrophic, man-made disaster born directly from Gilded Age class inequality. 1995. #johnstown #johnstownpennsylvania #johynstownpa #tragedy #humanmadetragedy #gildedageclassinequality #classinequality #classwar #classwars #eattherich #tragedytourism #tragedy

They elevate the over-paid, over-hyped "Sport Class", who now sell us unnecessary plastic objects and junk food
Getting paid a few hundred million to play with the ball puts them in the class just below the billionaires.

It has been a long while since I’ve read #NyadolNyuon. In her latest article she proposes a simple argument: ‘In a single statement, misogyny, racism and class contempt are revealed not as three separate prejudices but as the same project, each one holding the others up.’ And then proceeds to elaborate and back it up. There is much food for introspection and thoughtful deliberation in what she has to say. It is a well structured piece and well worth the read:

The crisis in feminism and the rise of the manosphere

There is a pattern in history that keeps repeating. It is that every meaningful stride towards equality has always been met with a coordinated backlash and a corresponding retreat into grievance and contempt. The same pattern of backlash is happening to the feminist movement and to its vision to advance gender equality.

Today we will all get fired because of union busting!

Our boss will be remembered on the gulag list.

Perfect timing to lose employment :(

I hate this country most paragraphs in our labour law are only there for social peace and to protect capital. No real revisions since the 19th century and the state approved unions here are not just class traitors but fulfil a corporatist roll by working for the bosses.

I will be branded as the agitator and it will be hard to find work again, so if someone can help out somehow me and my coworkers would need a bit of solidarity right now <3

‘I can hardly understand him!’
‘Shows it’s high class, Nobby. It wouldn’t be much good if people like you could understand him, right?'”

" 'Why, Gytha Ogg,' said Granny, 'I thought you despised riches!'
'Right, so I'd like to get the chance to despise them up close.',
'But I knows you, Gytha Ogg. Money'd spoil you.' 'I'd just like the chance to prove that it wouldn't, that's all I'm saying.' "

"And, while it was regarded as pretty good evidence of criminality to be living in a slum, for some reason owning a whole street of them merely got you invited to the very best social occasions."
