MODERATORS
Accommodating people with disabilities is "woke".
Accommodating people for no material gain is “woke”.
Being empathetic, reasonable and human is against MAGAts and "woke".
Isn't having a member of society being able to participate in that society a material gain? They can't work and become a tax paying citizen if they can't take part in the system.
DEI, or whatever stupid new buzzword they're told to use.
I think it is just an easy excuse and buzzword for "you slow down our max profit efficiency by not being simple" like there is an automated process that all of life needs to fit into. So you punish them out of existence by them either not participating or worse.
So we will pass laws to make it so we don't accommodate to squeeze out a little more profit. What a dumb addiction.
True. Making a scene and delaying a flight is a solid strategy for maximizing efficiency and profit.
Reality rarely goes the way those that think they can control others think it will when they try. But not never.
Narcoleptics in shambles!
