#corporate profits
Text
Welcome to America. If you’re poor, you’re dead. And it ain’t “inflation” that’s killing you, it’s corporate greed + government policies that, even in a pandemic, favor capitalism over human lives

Meet the Robin Hood-style activists ‘shoplifting’ for food banks
“Activists are ‘shoplifting’ from supermarket shelves and dumping the proceeds straight into the stores’ food bank bins in a ‘redistributive action’ to protest the cost of living and the climate crisis.
“Xander Cloudsley, 29, a community food co-ordinator and member of This Is Rigged, the campaign group behind the actions, said: ‘In my job, I’ve seen the lived reality of the cost of living crisis […] while corporate giants like Tesco are boasting astonishing profits year in and year out. I’m taking action because this disparity is sickening and profoundly unfair.’
“The protest comes as food bank usage – already prevalent following austerity – has surged alongside spiralling inflation ...
“The top three supermarkets – Tesco, Sainsbury’s and Asda – have taken advantage of increased food costs and doubled their profits to £3.32bn in 2021, up 97% on 2019. Unite’s general secretary Sharon Graham has called this ‘greedflation’ – something supermarket bosses deny ...
“The group’s ‘Robin Hood’ supermarket action was inspired by British farmers who took milk off supermarket shelves in 2015 to protest the low prices they were getting paid for their produce, and by the French energy workers who send cheap electricity to schools, hospitals and working class communities.”

i am honestly so exhausted right now. like between following the new blowup over somerton today, a friend of mine having some personal drama they needed to talk through, and like all of the stuff about tumblr opening the door for ai scraping, its like. too much drama for one day. too many things. i am so emotionally drained
#i just want to eat some quesidillas and sleep#big tired#te talks#i dont even host much writing on tumblr directly but i have headcanons and analyses and shot here#and it makes my skin crawl that not a single thing I make that exists in the world is safe from being fed into a machine to be churned into#corporate profits#even ao3 got scraped#like really not a single place is spared#nothing is sacrosanct#nothing can just be shared for free for the love of it#always some fucker is going to take it wihout your permission so they can churn it into gristle so they can by sell it#nothing is allowed to just exist#and like as well this coming so close after that least massive misstep from tumblr regarding trans issues#it likes man you didnt even wait a week before giving everyone another thing to be very mad about

what if u checked out my track thatd be prettycool huh
#breakcore#glitchbreak#amen break#i love eating moss#advertising is tiring.#this shit is exhausting#and it feels so evil#living under the boot of capitalism has pounded into my head that only soulless#money hungry businesses are who take up ad space#and the act of promoting one's art has been tainted by the way that art markets in general are ever increasingly driven by nothing but#corporate profits#and every single day the rift between the unprofessional#untrained artist and the degree holding#business minded artist#grows exponentially larger#leaving no room at all for those who create art for art's sake#i'm tired#i'm exhausted#i'm sick of the man holding all the power and having no choice but to follow arbitrary social capitalist constructions#that stifle creativity and artistic progress#anyway click for the worst breakcore youve ever heard#transgirlmusicuwu#Spotify
