  • No, screen time is the problem at the moment (also not able to read as of yet). We can see a measurable decrease in good behavior/increase is bad behavior after screen time, even when it’s educational stuff.

    I appreciate your concern, but I’m the one who has to deal with 20 minutes of screaming about not wanting to go to the bathroom and trying to defend myself without hurting them on days after they get screentime. My life is hard enough without actively making my kid’s behavior worse than it is already. And I’d love for there to be an easy fix, but every professional we’ve talked to so far tells us we’re already doing most/all they recommend…

    You’re confusing a personal and moral decision with an economic one.

    Now the people who run the company, are different. They are humans and they are capable of making moral decisions.

    I’m not confusing them, I’m refusing to accept a moral dodge that a corporation (which is just a bunch of people hiding behind a legal piece of paper) and the people making the decision should be held to different standards.

    It’s like saying that a leadership position can’t commit crimes, but the person elected to that position can. The person is still making the call, but it’s somehow different because reasons.


  • however, it is also true that bmw employed actual slave labor from concentration camps so that point is eroded somewhat…

    That’s kinda my point. This isn’t ‘oh no, we have to collaborate or die’, this is ‘oh, we have to collaborate? Cool, fuck those subhuman rats’.

    Nazi collaboration companies killed people and contributed to countless human rights violations. Being ‘forced’ to collaborate is just a convenient excuse to wave away their crimes and how some of the people behind the companies were spared by justice because capital is convenient to capture.
