Day 27 🗣️🔊🎩

“For the first time, #GenZ and #Millennials outnumber #Boomers as the biggest voting bloc. I can’t speak for everyone, but the general mood on the ground is bleak.

Younger generations in particular are, rightfully, increasingly #disillusioned with the two-party system, which serves a dwindling minority of #morbidly wealthy players rather than the general public.

We’re tired of the mudslinging, scare campaigns, confected culture wars and other transparent political theatrics that incite division while distracting the public and media from legitimate critical issues. We don’t need games. We need bold, urgent, sweeping economic and social reforms. There’s frankly no time for anything else.

Last year was officially the hottest on record globally, exceeding 1.5 degrees Celsius above pre-industrial levels. #Multinational #FossilFuel #corporations continue to pillage our #resources and coerce our elected officials while paying next to #NoTax.” — #GraceTame

#Kerala fishermen up in arms against #DeepSeaMining proposal off #Kollam coast

March 22, 2025

"The fishermen in Kerala have already launched several protests against the proposed plan to open up the sea to private mining companies as part of the Union Government’s ‘Blue Economy’ initiative.

"All the fishermen’s associations stand united in their protests against this proposal, alleging that it would bring an end to the fisheries sector in the country, not only in the #ArabianSea but also in the #BayOfBengal.

“ 'The mining, according to the scientific report we have, can disturb the seabed and completely destroy fish spawning habitats. It can also release poisonous gases trapped on the #DeepSeaFloor, causing severe #environmental issues,' Kerala Minister for Fisheries, Saji Cherian, told PTI.

"He said that deep-sea mining requires huge investments and heavy machinery, meaning only #multinational #corporations will be involved, making these areas completely inaccessible to poor fishermen.

"The Kerala government, which is strongly opposing this project, passed a resolution in the Assembly urging the Centre to withdraw it.

"The Minister said the proposed site, off the Kollam shore in Kerala in the Arabian Sea, is very rich in marine resources and serves as a lifeline for fishermen from Kerala and other states.

“ 'We have a highly diverse and extensive fish population in this area. The mining will completely wipe out this habitat, severely affecting the livelihood of fishermen in our region,' Saji Cherian said."

Listen, you care about the #climate. You care about the #environment. You care about the actual, factual #globalwarming going on right now. Good for you.

Now why aren't you voting #socialist? Why aren't you promoting #socialism? Why aren't you avoiding #predatory #multinational #corporations? Why aren't you breaking down local giant corporations? Why aren't you #organizing?!

No, really. It takes effort. Gtfo out there and #organize already. Have grit, have gal, be a mensch and GO!

I was basically reminded by a certain David today, whose fighting a certain multinational Goliath, that #tech people just can't see the forest for the trees... and also that the social antennas are a bit lose, AND THAT'S COMING FROM ME.

In any case, I'm gonna sign up for a certain #left leaning party to formulate ideas with, because even people who are #leftwing and #techie have a tendency to represent #multinational and #corporate interests - without even knowing it.

Trabajo en una multinacional en Barcelona. De forma recurrente tengo que soportar acoso sexista disfrazado de 'broma' (incluso de los jefes de equipo) y soy testigo de cambios de actitud cuando algunas personas están cerca de mí, y también de animaciones GIF transfóbicas en nuestro canal de Microsoft Team.

Presenté un protocolo de acoso, el abogado de la empresa decidió que no era acoso. Me quejé muchas veces a los representantes de la CGT, nunca tienen el coraje de defenderme. Por supuesto, los representantes de la CGT han demostrado estar tan preocupados como mis compañeros por defender a una mujer trans por lo que los demás pensarían de ellos si lo hicieran (como siempre).

Además de eso, sufro TEPT debido a abusos sexuales pasados ​​y el departamento de recursos humanos de la empresa y el médico de su mutua se negaron a escribirme un informe para flexibilizar mis horarios. Dicho esto, el problema principal es el acoso recurrente. Ya no confío en ningún sindicato, incluido CGT.

Que tengas un feliz dia.

"Being the most transparent brand doesn’t mean being the most eco-friendly one. A lot of times, the brand isn’t aware of the whole supply chain. They mostly reach out for the lowest production costs, without giving any attention to where do production centres take materials from. And here the problem comes."—Marko Antuš >

Sometimes it's fun to work in a #multinational company. One of my colleauges is a #Spaniard who lives in #Germany since over a decade and speaks German well, but out of habit, we always communicate in #English (like is the case with most other colleauges).

It kind of comes natural to the both of us. 🤷🏼‍♂️
