You really need to read up on American history.

OP said coworker, which I think most people missed. If you’re privileged enough to quit your job over a coworker’s political opinion, more power to you, I guess. I think that’s letting the fascists win, since you’ve literally ceded ground. But I believe OP is looking for constructive solutions to discuss politics with a coworker to preserve the relationship, likely both for their sanity at work and because there’s other things about the person they like.

While I like the sentiment, it doesn’t actually address OP’s question. My guess is OP also hates fascists but has trouble discussing their opinions on politics with their fasc-curious friend for whatever reason, whether it’s because they want to preserve the relationship or generally have trouble keeping up in a back and forth (which is totally fine, being quick-witted is not a requirement to hate fascists). What are your tips for approaching the conversation?

History class would he the appropriate place, what other subject were you thinking would teach you about him/those events? Not trying to be hostile, genuinely curious.

TIL I can edit post titles on Lemmy. This should prevent some pretty annoying and pointless arguments.

I agree, season 9 gets way too much hate for basically being season 1 of a spinoff. There’s a lot to like there and it never really had a chance to find itself before cancelation.

There’s a very real argument that it does mess with the consumer’s head. The person being hurt is the consumer of the media and while some unhealthy behaviors can be okay in reason, there’s also risks in terms of how it makes the consumer view the world and people in it. Violent video games don’t make people more violent, but imagery in porn does affect how consumers of porn view people and relationships.

It costs less to add a household than it does to have two subscriptions. Netflix was at least somewhat smart about it.

Not actually sure this is banal? The story is a staffing shortage of air traffic controllers and several near misses due to them being exhausted. Just because there hasn’t been a problem yet doesn’t mean there isn’t a problem at all.

Yes, but the layperson’s perspective doesn’t really matter here and it’s worth reading the NYT piece. The underlying issue is that air traffic controllers are overworked and making mistakes due to staffing shortages and mandatory overtime while working a mentally taxing job. There are legitimate concerns that if this isn’t addressed, we could see actual collisions and casualties.

Right, it’s not so much that the words are used incorrectly so much as it is that their use is inappropriate in this context.

Where was Rogan when the Westfold fell?

Yeah but Space Marines though.

Or just wear a stillsuit.

To be fair, unless the act itself is interfering in your daily life, the real problem is probably porn addiction.

But if you can afford it buy the subscription.

It’s supposed to imply resources for the humans in the company as opposed to corporate resources.

They’re having trouble finding people who want to do the job for the pay they’re offering.

You mean the rumored several alternatives, that I asked you to elaborate on, and you told me to Google? Yes, clearly you listed specifics.
