Amazon CEO wants his staff back in the office full time • The Register
  • What does this have to do with the article and my comment? Everything you are saying contradicts the CEOs position. My comment simply highlighted that his blanket rule would probably not apply to him. Explain the false equivalency you are referring to because I have no idea who you are comparing. Clearly you have been a little too close to these overpaid hacks, because you are clearly drinking their kool-Aid. Do you honestly believe this guy puts in an 8+ hour work day? Sure... CEOs are renowned for their work ethic. Please do continue to tell me how much more knowledgeable you are on this issue than I.

  • So your saying it's not appropriate to have a blanket rule for everyone demanding everyone work in the office 5 days a week... False equivalency my arse. His job description is "make number go up". He could do his job from a small office next to the sales guy. On what planet do you think defending the CEO will make a difference when your employer decides they need more control over your life?

  • Hmm, not sure USA should be classed as a liberal democracy. I mean, they have a significant number of non-liberal states, an electoral college that doesn't represent the democratic vote... What puts them in the dark blue and Brazil and S.A. in the light blue?

    Israeli planes strike Hezbollah targets in Lebanon
  • So one doesn't justify another, but then you try and justify it by saying it's quantifiably fewer wrongs... What on earth are you quantifying? Lives lost. Freedoms lost. Land lost. Quality of life lost?

    You are deluded if you honestly believe the current Israeli leadership and that of the IDF has no ill will towards Palestinians or Muslims.

    I'm more than confident the world knows what Hamas is. But Bibi's government has innocent blood on its hands and they aren't being held to the same derision. There are Israelis murdering Palestinians for land and they aren't being brought to any justice.

    I don't believe that you don't hate Muslims or Palestinians. You sound like a white American saying "I'm not racist but..."

  • "pretty reckless" is something you might say about driving while intoxicated, not sure how it applies to a large scale, protracted military operations.

    What "settlers" thing are you referring to?

    Hamas was formed in 1987, are you suggesting Israel has done nothing improper since then?

    Russia is trying to sabotage European railways, warns Prague
  • No shit. The world's fascism problem never ended. Do you have any articles discussing fascism in Russia? Or America? Or the EU?

    How do you feel about Volodymyr Zelenskyy? Is he an anti-Semite fascist too?

    I'd love to hear your opinion on Putin.

  • Again, most of the people using this statement are using it in solidarity with Ukranian independence and are unaware of its origins.

    Your comic is too simple to explain the complexity of this issue.

    This was a strawman argument anyway.

  • Interesting history lesson.

    Is the implication that Spitzspot is a fascist / communist and anti-Semite because they said Slava Ukrani?

    They well may be, but that's a big call based on the use of a phrase which has seen a rapid evolution in it's usage in the last few years.

    Are all Hindi and buddists and Jainists who continue to use the swastika as a part of their religious symbolism anti-Semite fascists as well?

    Is Kim Jong Un a proponent of individual rights and liberties because he leads the Democratic People's Republic of Korea?

    I'm guessing there's a few Americanism's that'd have the same complex history.

    Slava Ukrani may have it's origins in fascism, but right now across the english speaking world it is seen as a Clarion call championing the freedom of a democratic Ukraine against the current fascist Russian regime.

    Words have more than one meaning, and those meanings evolve.

  • Yep, based on price, that's the one. Still, they should make it easier. If they asking people to check, they should at least tell people where to check and use the same terminology.
