the companies don’t want ppl to talk about salaries, so they can pay unfair. it’s okay to talk about salaries or unions.
If I recall, one of the great drivers of women’s rights was actually the washing machine. Not sure how accurate that is.
Decades of concentrated lobbying for statutory protections, a shift in legal scholarship, and even a Constitutional Amendment and campaigning for referendum votes? Yeah, they may not know the answer — civics education in the US is embarrassing.
The white moderate all over again
“Revolutions up until now were all good, except for those pesky unsuccessful ones - I mean coup attempts - but now it’s time to stop. We’ve gained the ability to ‘talk about it’ since, people back then were all mute and deaf.”
rights imply laws. laws aren’t anarchist.
You should probably understand the concept behind human rights before you talk about either anarchism or liberalism, both of which accept the idea.
What is a “liberal”?
Liberalism is a political tradition that dates at least to the enlightenment era. One of the defining characteristics of liberalism is the emphasis on the individual. This makes it highly compatible with capitalism, in fact, I would call Liberalism the state religion of Capital.
As the dominant political and intellectual tradition in the west for centuries, it can be difficult to even imagine a politics not built around fighting over different flavors of liberalism.
In my opinion, there’s a huge gap between the values liberalism espouses in theory (individual liberty, human rights, self-determination) and what we actually see in practice (slavery, fascism, imperialism, ecocide, genocide, world war).
Of course, committed liberals view fascism as outside of their tradition, whereas their ideological opponents generally regard fascism as an extension of liberal ideology. This quickly devolves into a No True Scotsman debate.
Moderates who think that capitalism can be reformed.
Not… The most universally accurate definition
A larval nazi.
I wouldnt go as far as to call them nazis. Most of them are just would-be leftists.
