Just as you thought food delivery companies couldn't inflict any more misery on society:

Instead of using lowly-paid gig economy contractors to deliver groceries, they're replacing humans with robots, who, in turn, force humans off the pavement into road traffic.

Capitalism tends to oligopoly.

#Socialism #Capitalism Oh and of course, #BoycottAmazon
Your Black Friday reminder that in 75% of U.S. industries, a smaller number of companies now control more of the business than they did twenty years ago. We must stop the monopolization of America. Shop small if you can, please.

Hundreds of children are sacrificed every year in the United States on the altar of the freedom to bear arms. Yet Republicans are perfectly happy with this.
Yes, who is more likely to regard the sacrifice of people as abhorrent than those who follow a religion centered on celebrating the sacrifice of a person?

#SpotTheScammer

@fayez7422.bsky.social Yet another 'Alma', sick child scam account. There have been hundreds of these and not one penny of any money given went to help a sick child.
These accounts are run by organized criminals and you should never share and certainly never donate any money.

Got any good anti-Thatcher memes or jokes? Please add them to the comments.

I just learnt that over £100,000 of NHS funds have been wasted on defending bullying instead of paying frontline staff fairly.

Sign the petition to demand that Gloucestershire Hospitals Trust investigate how their CEO, Kevin McNamara, treats NHS staff. www.megaphone.org.uk/petitions/sa...
Say no to bullying of NHS staff
Treatment of striking NHS staff This helps to explain the treatment of NHS workers on strike in Gloucestershire in recent months.  A small but mighty group of workers have been on strike since...

Allister Heath clearly has absolutely zero idea of what socialism is

Maybe The Telegraph needs to consider employing people with a working knowledge of political ideologies rather than letting random posh wankers write utter drivel

The House of Lords is the largest, most expensive, unelected Legislative Government Body in the world.

Like the Royal Family it shouldn't exist in the 21st Century.

The Odd, Shifting Role of the N.F.L. Punter

He is the vestigial organ of a football team, a remnant of the time before the forward pass. And yet, now and again, he can be vitally important.
