Definitely prevalent among the petty bourgeoisie, to which I counter that they can restructure the business as a worker co-op so all employees are owners, and therefore exempt from minimum wage laws

Working class yes, but unlike proletariat who sell labor power for wages and are variable capital, slaves are do not sell their labor power for wages and they are constant capital

Lots of Western media isn't blocked, CNN isn't blocked
What was blocked recently was BBC in response to CGTN getting blocked first in the UK
Facebook, Twitter, and YouTube were blocked because they refused to take down terrorist recruitment pages and accounts. Remember 2011 ISIS Twitter? Like that. Those services were available before
Additionally, the idea of Internet sovereignty is important to a healthy Web industry in any country. Without the firewall, companies like WeChat and Douyin/TikTok could not have developed
Furthermore, getting around the firewall is trivially easy. OpenVPN on port 443 does the trick, I've set one up for a friend before. Anyone who wants to get a VPN account and browse the wider Internet is freely able to, and many do this
Finally, censorship has a purpose, and that's public safety first and foremost. China doesn't have large conspiracy cults like QAnon or antivaxxers, because rumor-mongering gets reported and dealt with seriously. It's like shouting "fire" in a crowded theater, stopping it is censorship but also perfectly legal. They don't have graveyards full of children or measles, mumps, or rubella making a comeback because of this

Like it said, is within the realm of possibility, you should be focused on making applications secure to work around it as it's an insurmountable problem to address directly

My friend's aunts from Qingdao were totally open to using CBD for pain relief. Since CBD doesn't make you high like THC, I can see hemp being legalized, especially since hemp also has historical usage in TCM. Marijuana, though, I think won't happen for a long while since seeing and treating the effects of opium addiction is in living memory. Some other friends who went to Tibet a few times did mention that there are some hookah cafes where there's something other than tobacco in them

Hard agree, they also don't have certain features enabled when you're a host, which really screws things royally when you find this out in the middle of cohosting an event and you're supposed to handle the heavy lifting of moderation

You shouldn't be divulging political affiliation on a job form, and it won't come up on a background check as what they check are credit and criminal records
The only thing you should be worried about with joining any Communist organization is if you're a noncitizen or a naturalized citizen for less than 5 years, as that can get you deported

This event will feature the following panelists: Frank Chapman was wrongfully convicted of murder and armed robbery in 1961 and sentenced to life and 50 years in the Missouri State Prison. His case was taken up by the National Alliance Against Racist and Political Repression (NAARPR) in 1973, and in 1976 he was released. He had been incarcerated for 14 years. In 1983, he was elected executive director of NAARPR. He worked with Charlene Mitchell, who preceded him as executive director of NAARPR, on building an international campaign to free Rev. Ben Chavis and the Wilmington Ten, Joann Little, and others falsely accused and politically persecuted. He was a part of the international campaign to free Nelson Mandela. He has been a part of leading the struggle in Chicago for the past seven years to stop police crimes — especially murder, torture, beatings and racial profiling. He is presently co-chair and educational director of the Chicago Alliance Against Racist and Political Repression. In addition to being a community organizer, Frank is also a published writer since 1971, when he first published “Pages from the Life of a Black Prisoner” in the Fall 1971 edition of Freedomways magazine. He became a contributing editor of Freedomways magazine in 1981-83. Max Rameau is a Haitian born Pan-African theorist, campaign strategist, organizer and author. While a student in the Washington, DC area, Max was introduced to Black Nationalist and Pan-Africanist theory. After moving to Miami, Florida in 1991, he began organizing around a broad range of human rights issues impacting low-income Black communities, including Immigrant rights (particularly Haitian immigrants), economic justice, LGBTQ rights, voting rights, particularly for ex-felons and police abuse, among others. In October 2006, Take Back the Land seized control of a vacant lot in the Liberty City section of Miami and built the Umoja Village, a full urban shantytown, addressing the issues of land, self-determination and homelessness in the Black community. In October 2007, Take Back the Land initiated a bold campaign that sparked a national movement: "liberating" vacant government owned and foreclosed homes and moving homeless families into them. Max is an organizer with Pan-African Community Action and travels the country facilitating workshops, engaging in campaign strategy sessions and developing models for community control over land and the human right to housing. Max Rameau continues to develop movement theory and is currently working on a book on Community Control Over Police. L.

His accomplishments are being a teacher for more than 30 years. As well as being a conductor of a children's choir. He's an accomplished contract negotiator, organizer, and co-founder of the Rosemount Childcare Workers Union and the sole creator of Return To Salt Of The Productions. He’s a passionate believer for people's rights, who began his activist journey at the tender age of 14. He's an accomplished, credited teacher, playwright, producer, director, actor, and social activist. He epitomizes what it means to be a griot, who fully embraces the meaning of keeping an oral history, to educate and entertain with stories, poems, songs, dances, and more. The event will be moderated by: Dr. Marsha Coleman Adebayo is the author of the Pulitzer Prize nominated: No FEAR: A Whistleblowers Triumph over Corruption and Retaliation at the EPA. She worked at the EPA for 18 years and blew the whistle on a US multinational corporation that endangered South African vanadium mine workers. Marsha's successful lawsuit led to the introduction and passage of the first civil rights and whistle-blower law of the 21st century: the Notification of Federal Employees Anti-discrimination and Retaliation Act of 2002 (No FEAR Act). Marsha was inducted into the Maryland Women’s Hall of Fame, March 2017. Currently, she is working to stop the Housing Opportunities Commission (HOC) and the Bethesda Self-Storage Company/1784 Holdings from its continue desecration of Moses African Cemetery in Bethesda, Maryland.
