Questions raised as to why there is a prevailing whiteness in the workers co-ops movement. One suggestion was that those from black and minority ethnic groups are hesitant to enter a suspiciously white space. A bit of a Catch 22 that needs concerted effort to be overcome.

I think it really exemplifies that having a larger cast of characters who Do Things rather than having the protagonist do everything really allows for better representation. Similar to the new Star Wars movies the focus is much less on one One Man can do and more n what Everyone Together can do.

Military contractor Rockwell Collins
Mega asset manager BlackRock
Processed food company and child labor beneficiary Kellogg Co.
Google, Apple and Microsoft, god only knows why
We clearly have different ideas of socially responsible

So many fears of and threat models for AI are just the projection of fears over capitalism and bureaucracy onto technology, and they are no less legitimate for it.
"Pistachio nuts are highly flammable when stored in large quantities, and are prone to self-heating and spontaneous combustion." wtf?

There are significant differences between the lyrics of "Taxman" by The Beatles and the actual tax code as it is currently enforced, and it should be used with caution as an educational tool for this reason
To be specific, it is a "taxperson" now
