Ik vraag me af wie de termen werkgever en werknemer heeft bedacht. Want ik sta er ineens zo bij stil dat dat best een soort van "loaded" termen zijn.

De werkgever is zo aardig dat die iets geeft. Zo ruimhartig!

De werknemer is zo brutaal dat die iets neemt! Het lef!

Klinkt een beetje als een neoliberale naamgeving!

Ik stel een nieuwe standaard voor: de arbeider, en de arbeidsprofiteur. In die volgorde.

@FAIR

OK that was not easy to watch
I'm prepared for what Biden said to be spun every which way to serve various agendae (a?, as? #Latin scholars needed 😁)

+ He remained coherent & confident throughout, while fielding a lot of passive-aggressive questions. Any president needs to be able to do that. I f'ing dare #Trump to try
+ He backed up his VP
- His foreign policy positions retain #neolib priorities & reach out to a 'Center' pushed way too far to the Right for this #pacifist

@chris_stevenson @StillIRise1963 it's mostly just phone tree to deliver what's easiest to deliver via automated response even if the vast majority of inquiries don't fit in that case. It's like the delusion of thinking that market forces deliver to meet consumer demands, when in fact the market imposes products and services that can be delivered regardless of consumer demands.

#neolib logic run amok in both scenarios
