All these corporations pretended to care about women when feminism was a useful tool to attack institutions of society and now they've just moved on and have no issue throwing women under the bus:

Had to tear my washer apart to do a repair. It really helped me understand how everything is designed to be disposable.
I was getting a drain fault code, the washer wasn't working at all. The correct method to repair is to take the top off, the front off, then unbolt the pump to get at the drain pump on the side of the pump assembly. All so I could undo 3 screws and take out a clump of fuzz that was clogging up the pump. How many people would just assume the washer was dead and buy a new one for a clump of fuzz?
I had to do some pretty interesting gymnastics to get to the pump from the bottom, but after a whole bunch of work I got to the drain pump and sure enough, it was just a piece of felt stopping my new washer from running correctly.
You know.... The drain pump is a known failure mode of this thing. In a sane world, there'd be a little door you can open to access it. Nope, not in clown world, you're expected to take the entire thing apart to remove three screws and lift the pump head off.

Joe Scarborough was a dangerous conspiracy theorist? 🤔
> While interviewing Robert F. Kennedy Jr. in June 2005, Scarborough expressed concerns about the possibility that one of his sons may have suffered #vaccine damage (See Thimerosal controversy). Scarborough said, "My son, born in 1991, has a slight form of autism called Asperger's. When I was practicing law and also when I was in Congress, parents would constantly come to me, and they would bring me videotapes of their children, and they were all around the age of my son or younger. So, something happened in 1989."

NPR this morning:
"It's hard to know that people don't have confidence in the system."

Yes.
It started with the demise of Aaron Swartz then accelerated under Ellen Pao and her crusade against free speech and now it is a cesspool of group think where only opinions aligned with the régime are tolerated.
It's a shame because it could be a good tool.

Then what?
"Loss prevention" is almost always prevented from doing anything about theft by corporate and legal.
Whether the police will get involved depends on where you are I suppose.
