Striking without any demands is self congratulatory larping. Workers strike when they have demands to strengthen their negotiating position.
A “just because” strike is weird and undermines unions.

What were the demands? It’s unclear from the statement.

It has been that way for many decades.

ourworldindata.org/ocean-plastics
Most of the plastic in our oceans comes from land-based sources: by weight, 70% to 80% is plastic that is transported from land to the sea via rivers or coastlines
Most of the world’s largest emitting rivers are in Asia, with some also in East Africa and the Caribbean
Seven of the top ten rivers are in the Philippines. Two are in India, and one in Malaysia. The Pasig River in the Philippines alone accounts for 6.4% of global river plastics
Rich countries tend to have better functioning waste collection and disposal services.

A lot of ocean trash comes by river from poor countries.

It shows.

Mods are worse here and often will delete posts and ban users, who don’t violate the rules. There are tons of unwritten rules, especially in news and politics related topics.

Dating apps are an option if you don’t meet people of your preferred gender and age group somewhat regularly.
- Comment on Star Citizen devs report drying funds, micromanagement, overspending, and episodic release for Squadron 42 4 weeks ago:
Marketing and sales strategies are excellent for this game. It unifies in game purchases focused on whales like with mobile games and selling early access to an alpha. There’s also an aspect of collectibles and exclusivity like with NFTs. It‘s also cult like in many aspects. An utopian perfectionist vision evangelized by a prophet.

- Comment on Google now requires JavaScript 5 weeks ago:
Yes, it targets old operating systems. Old browsers don’t have the right certificates installed, nor do they support current encryption algorithms and protocols.

If you ever need a search engine without JavaScript or https, give frogfind.com a try. Works great on ancient browsers and operating systems.

I would also like to see a different government in Israel.
- Comment on 💸💸💸 1 month ago:
No. The way aid gets distributed needs to change. UNRWA is part of the problem and need reform at least.
Hamas and other extremist organizations should be removed from power. Gazans also need a political perspective towards a good and prosperous life, trade and free travel.
- Comment on 💸💸💸 1 month ago:
The aid sent to Gaza isn’t just food and water. It includes construction materials, machinery, all kinds of equipment, and simply money to pay salaries and buy whatever.
Cement and steel to build houses was regularly used to build tunnels for military purposes instead. Water pipes were used to build rockets and so on.
- Comment on 💸💸💸 1 month ago:
Hamas has been siphoning money and materials from the aid provided to Gaza for decades. Palestinians receive tons of aid, mainly from western countries.
- Comment on Wait a minute, we've been going about this all the wrong way! 1 month ago:
Combatants tend to violently fight back, when you try to round them up. They also tend to hide among civilians in case of terrorist militia like Hezbollah.
