I’ve been downvoted by people tired of hearing the same comments (of a centre left style). Ok, but it sure seems like people love themselves some Fox News. Business doesn’t mean crushing workers, particularly in the areas of interest to HN. Without good, motivated workers, these startups and their bigger cousins won’t fly. And with less open, quiet environments the pool of candidates will be smaller.
The Democratic Socialists of America has lots of crazy ideas. From their platform:
“ FREEDOM OF MOVEMENT
Allow workers to freely migrate between countries to seek employment without restrictive immigration controls. ” — https://platform.dsausa.org/foreign-policy/
“ NO MORE ECONOMIC WARFARE
End economic sanctions that impact the sovereignty of countries whose governments act independently of the United States, such as … Iran.” — https://platform.dsausa.org/foreign-policy/
Etc.
I don’t really care how you’d categorize the organization, simply looking at their policies is enough information to know they’re dangerous.
I remember another story about 30-something outsider coming to large city with a radical message that upper-class Jews should stop accumulating wealth because it makes lower classes dispossessed.
