A really funny flex would be for a CEO to get the company together and say "ok, show of hands, who thinks people should be fired for their political opinions?"
Then when a bunch of people raise their hands, "ok, you're fired."

Back in the 2000s, Jon Stewart lambasted the press for inauthentic, incorrect, false, or biased coverage. Unfortunately, it seems like they didn't really get the memo or they thought those criticisms only applied to those *other* journalists.

What we're talking about here though is the higher court agreeing to put a pause on the judgement until they get a shot at reviewing it.
People often misinterpret stays pending appeal as a real decision and they are reported on in the media as if they are a final judgement.

Realcaseyrollins asked: "Wait so is this ruling from #SCOTUS or not? I didn't know that the #5thCircuit could overturn their rulings."
Power corrupts, so I expect something cyclical, where it'll get better for a time then it gets gummed up, then something new takes its place.
I think they put a stay in place during the proceedings. Basically, saying that the ruling of the lower court is stayed pending certiorari (basically petitioning the supreme Court to see your case), because there's a good chance on the merits that the order could be overturned at the supreme Court level.
Essentially, rather than being a final decision, its a procedural action as to what should take place during the supreme Court case.

It'd be nice if we could use nostr as a back end for websites like activitypub but more decentralized. Then if the website pisses you off, you just take your private key with you elsewhere
I think unfortunately just a lot of the jobs disappeared, sent elsewhere. Much of North America has been in deep decline for 50 years and the unions didn't prevent that.
The thing that's required is for the working class to have more bargaining power, but the union isn't that -- its just the manifestation of power they already had.
I think the things that need to happen are for the upcoming population collapse to occur. Historically, its those eras where working class people get power back. If we're lucky it'll be peaceful, but in previous eras it got really bloody, such as the French civil war.

I'm not opposed to alternative structures than the traditional employer/employee relationship, but not the specific stuff I've seen.
Hey let’s hire Ashok for this position! He’s really good!
Oops, sorry. Bob Whiteman has been here for 30 years. He’s just good enough not to fire but he has seniority so he gets first dibs on the job.
Hey, let’s give Ashok a raise! He’s really good!
Oops, sorry. Bob Whiteman has been here for 30 years. He’s just good enough not to fire. It he’s been here the longest so he gets paid the most.

Some people who are for unions and against being able to pay people based on their competence instead of seniority say "I really don’t care to play 'who deserves a minimum quality of life'."
Reality doesn’t care whether you care to play or not.
There’s a limited amount of resources, you can’t hire everyone on Earth, you can’t give everyone an unlimited salary. Everything past that you’re making decisions as to who gets what.
And by the way, if you make enough poor decisions eventually everyone loses their jobs.

It just occurred to me that now Trudeau will know what it feels like to have someone take half of his income
"Oh! We were going to take over the country, but then they threatened to stop sending free money so that totally changes everything"
