Except a lot on “the left” do understand that.

I mean sheesh, Roddenberry spelled it out in Star Trek very clearly. The eco wars of the 2020s ripped society apart. Federation society is very pointedly not capitalist, which is why the Ferengi stick out so much, and why they are not a Federation planet, even though they trade and interact with the Federation a lot.

We really need a BrExit thread.

Jo Johnson has quit as transport minister and called for the public to have a fresh say on Brexit.

The MP, who is Boris Johnson’s brother but voted Remain in the referendum, said the deal being negotiated with the EU “will be a terrible mistake”.

Arguing Britain was “on the brink of the greatest crisis” since World War Two, he said what was on offer wasn’t "anything like what was promised.

No honor among thieves, and it all falls apart.

Like “it’s not the crime, it’s the coverup” perpetrators never learn.

“Don’t get overly greedy if you’ve gotten away with it” is the downfall of many a stupid criminal. If they’d just shut up and given the dude his cut, they’d have got away clean.

In one lengthy 2012 email, Zuckerberg explains his decision to allow developers access to Facebook’s platform only if the developers in turn encouraged their app’s users to share back to Facebook. He calls this “reciprocity.”

First thing that springs to mind:

Ask any of the chickies in my pen:
They’ll tell you I’m the biggest mother… hen.
I love them all, and all of them love me,
Because the system works:
The system called,
“Reciprocity.”

Not sure if I should file this under here, or “Hope,” but…

On the “evil” hand…

On Thursday, Hungary’s parliament passed a bill that allows employers to demand between 250 to 400 hours of overtime a year, and permits them to delay payment by up to three years.

On the “hope” hand, this seems to have provoked enough of a response that it might represent the start of a tipping point against Orban.

This is why these idiots can never be “populist”. Someone proven able to fuck over his employees can never pull this shit off for too long.
