Activision/Blizzard: We've listened to your concerns and ignored most of them, now stop complaining so loudly, we can't hear the union busters we've just hired.
The merger happened in 2008, the nightmare blizzcon with the Cosby Suite happened in the 2010's, as did all the hiring practices so he had plenty of time to find out something was wrong, but here we are. Kotick isn't going anywhere, shareholder pushback on payouts isn't enough to remove him, so he's going to survive this.
So the amendment wants to make sure the people running crypto miners don't pay anything, you know, the people causing the most ongoing environmental damage. Golly gee, I wonder why Cynthia 'Not sure who the Green New Deal is good for, but I can say for certain it’s not the people of Wyoming.' Lummis and Pat 'Senator Toomey believes that coal is an essential part of America's energy future, not to mention an important part of Pennsylvania's economy.' Toomey would support something that's causing fossil fuel plants to be taken out of mothballs just to run crypto miners.
Anti Elon Musk bigot? Well, that's new. I had no idea that white billionaire twitter trolls with a weird cult of personality were a persecuted minority.
'Getting censored proves that your opinion is the strongest.' Is a weird thing to throw around if you look at it. He's openly admitting conservative hate laced claptrap w just opinion, not fact, yet is for some reason proud of how strongly conservatives cling to their ignorance.
People telling you to shut up when you say stupid things doesn't make the stupidity correct, and your refusal to even consider why reflects badly on you, not them.
They're already a private security force that values property over people, just one where business owners have managed to shovel the costs onto the general public.

Such a champion of journalism, I remember your outrage about the Trump admin probing journalists in the hope of silencing journalists and whistleblowers...
So you're perfectly fine when people are banned for threatening democrats, healthcare workers, scientists, minorities, spreading rehashed conspiracy theories based on protocols of the elders of Zion and so on then? Funny, you should be fine with the vast majority of people banned for 'conservative beliefs' then.
Any benefit to the third world is a figleaf for greed, so is no more wirth mentioning than the charitable outreach of companies like ExxonMobil or BP.
You cam find other ways to transfer money to developing nations, you can't find another planet for those same people to live on once this one has been broken beyond all hope of repair by people burning through so much energy they have to bring fossil fuel plants out of mothballs so they can keep on mining Chuck-E-Cheese tokens in the hopes of becoming millionaires because some other sucker bought in after them.
The Cryptocurrency community don't giver a sh*t about anyone ripped off by their scams, they care even less about the rest of humanisy having a livable planet so excuse me while I play the world's smallest violin for their fears about having to pay taxes.
The crytospace is already a mess of pump and dump scams, crap like Tether and exchanges that suddenly need to go offline for maintainance every time there's a sell off, and that's without the MASSIVE energy use to produce gambling tokens that affects each and every human on this planet because of the vast amount of energy the system uses and all the E-waste it generates just to produce gambling tokens. The world has sprouted another first world nation's worth of energy consumption just so libertarian techbros can scam oneanother with magic beans and rip off grandmas while pretending it's all about the technology, you know, that slow database that virtually every attempt at using for things in real world has shown to be worse than the systems already in place.
Yes, but her hold on the seat is utterly tenuous, 109 votes is the thinnest of margins and she hopes to cling on, and police union backing sure would help a bunch.
She knows there's little chance of it being passed into law, but having the backing of police unions sure will help her when she runs for higher office.
