It’s African American Vernacular English. Calling it “uneducated and improper” can and will be perceived as racist as it’s a legitimate dialect of the English language.
Not in a union yet? Not a problem. Become a Wobbly and join the only anticapitalist union out there.

Wild to think that was 7 years ago.
I find “y’all” works pretty well, so does “folks” or even better “Fellow Workers.”
I mean, why would you ever say you were br*tish?
Yeah y’all really don’t want to end up like us. We’re not the land of the free. The streets are most definitely not paved with gold. We’re just a giant ponzi scheme.
You almost got yeeted.
I’m sorry for what you’ve gone through. While things are getting scary, know that you’re not alone and there are many of us willing to stand up against your oppressors. We’ll make sure that bigotry becomes a thing of the past.
Racism. I’ve been called racial slurs for not just my race, but other races. I’ve been profiled by police. I’ve watched my boss not only allow racist remarks made by my coworkers for no reason (eg: working like a hard-R) but laugh along to them. People judge Tarantino’s movies for excessive use of racism but I think they’re the most honest depictions of American culture.
I think we’re going to be headed backwards with that one.
Its purposeful. It’s done this way so that there are legal ways of justifying the death of millions per year as they are deemed unprofitable.
$644/$7.25 (minimum wage) is 88.8 hours. That’s two weeks of gross income. A giant chunk of us cannot afford that. Your snarky comment is stupid and you should feel embarrassed.
Hip-hop artists also rap about it pretty frequently.
“Type M (BS 546) Plugs They are distinguished from Type D plugs by their larger pins and current rating of 15A. The central earthing pin is 28.89 mm long and 8.71 mm in diameter, while the hot and neutral pins are both 18.94 mm long, 7.06 mm in diameter, and spaced 25.4 mm apart.”
This is the first result I got from a quick Google search. Today we learned, friend.
“We were just thinking of the shareholders.” You can’t just pass the blame to shareholders. Why do shareholders exist? To create the illusion that everyone can be an “owner” so that the owning class can continue to fuck us all.
This is why I personally don’t believe in jail/prison. Rehabilitation, yes. Jail or prison? No. I’m no professional but I feel as though I have seen countless studies about how our prison system is a failure and how all it does is set people up to come back. That doesn’t even touch on private prisons and their financial incentives to get people back into the system.
I don’t speak pretzel, but I’m pretty sure this is a lie.
That sounds like a setup to a deez nuts joke.
