Then you got to go to church if you want to stay out of hell. God just fucking hates us.
God is a capitalist
I would have said god is a fascist. There’s a real “do what I’ve decided is best for you, or there will be hell to pay” (pun intended) vibe throughout his interactions with humanity.
But he does always seem to need money, so maybe you have a point.
Sometimes they’re not that far apart.
Yeah, the fascists currently in control of the GOP are very much capitalists too, for example.
He himself does not need money, he’s just too stingy to finance his representatives on earth raping children.
Why not both?
(Couldn’t coun a proper portmanteu)
God is in real estate… Satan is a capitalist… Jesus just saves…
Isn’t jesus also god? Like his son but also him?
I’m pretty sure Satan is a merchantilist.
Smoke meth: hail Satan: raise hell: and praise Dale 🤘
Smoke grass, eat ass, and get out of the left lane to let others pass!
I wish my industry had unions lol
Start talking to your coworkers!
Even if you don’t convince your workplace to unionize, you’re laying the groundwork for the next person who tries.
That’s true, but it’s easier said than done. As someone who already experienced job loss this year, I’m not looking to go through with it again. I have to look out for myself and my family first, unfortunately.
you can always have it in the back of your head and prepare for a future optimised rollout / means to be anonymous
Can someone link actual facts of this info so I can argue it with my boomer family that doesn’t get it?
When they tell you that your lazy and expect to have everything handed to you, this is what they mean.
You are savage… but truthfully
“I ain’t seen a white man beat like that since Abraham Lincoln… dude.”
ROFL
A workday was also like 4 hours or less in biblical times though.
The idea that people in the past worked long, grueling hours due to lack of technology is a myth. People had way more free time in those days.
I’ve heard this a few times and wholeheartedly believe it. But I don’t know any sources, when I’m asked. Do you happen to know any?
Is there a source for this quote? My googling failed me
It’s a meme. Dale Earnhardt (probably) didn’t say tthat.
Yeahhh. That writing, too, lmao. As a Carolinian, the little faded “comrade” was a good one. Down to earth and huge hearted as he was said to be, I don’t think the christian republican co-owner of Dale Earnhardt Inc. is your friendski, pal

It’s from It’s part of a comedy bit by Keith Lowell Jensen.
Best I can do is this Wikipedia article.
In H3 Podcast lore, it stems from this clip
God doesn’t exist.
And in a few more decades neither will unions. I’d laugh if it wasn’t so sad.
that’s not remotely true. The union movement is quite robust and actively serves a real need. The only thing that could actually kill the union movement would be a fully communist society and unions subsequently becoming redundant
Sorry if this is a stupid question.
What do we do about goverments simply shutting them down? In my country the rail workers needed to strike, and then congress said no.
The government shutting down a strike only worked because the union capitulated. It worked because when the government said no, they listened.
The rail workers could have held a strike anyway, legal consequences be damned. The government would likely escalate in retaliation: strikers would be jailed and potentially forced back into that labor while incarcerated. Strikers could then give in to the government’s demands or further escalate on their own end. This could take the form of sabotage, armed conflict, or other methods of dissent. This is the history of labor struggles and it has often been a bloody history.
At the end of the day, it becomes a matter of how desperate each group is. If the risk posed by the government retaliating is greater than your desperation to improve conditions, then workers are more likely to back down. This doesn’t address the consciousness of the workers though. They hold the true source of power (labor) in this neverending struggle and have the most to gain by taking action to exert that power over those who wish to exploit them.
Part of the problem is that taking revolutionary action isn’t easy and it’s much more comfortable to capitulate anywhere along the road to changing these dynamics.
What is to be done? Educate yourself and those around you. Organize yourselves against your oppressors and prepare for the fight ahead. Take action and persevere by supporting one another in this struggle.
The only thing that authority respects is a greater authority. The ones in power maintain their authority because we allow them to maintain that authority. Nothing happens without the labor of the masses and when they act in solidarity, nothing has the power to stop them.
Wait how do you know?
Let me rephrase. “There is no evidence that god exists”. Better?
No.
Somehow the reddit athiest gang is even worse here lol
I like the facts, but know nothing about Dale Earnhardt. Was he not a typical Republican?
It’s hard to say, while he did grow up stuck in a western town, outside of racing there’s not much else known about his life outside of what’s been show by him and his son.
You can’t make assumptions based on the stereotypes.
I know, that’s why I’m asking, for all I know he was very liberal. I’m not a NASCAR guy by any stretch and don’t know anything about these guys, but I know what the fans tend to be like.
Dale Sr. never really spoke about politics one way or the other, but it’s worth noting that his son is an open progressive in an industry that appeals almost entirely to the Conservative crowd. Is there any reason in particular you think Dale Earnhardt was a typical republican?
Edit: after a little more research it seems that Dale was probably a traditional Southern conservative but not what we would call today as a MAGA conservative. An excerpt from this article reads:
Dale’s daughter Kelley recalled an incident that occurred in her childhood, when her father placed a bumper sticker reading “American By Birth / Southern By The Grace Of God” on the rear of his truck. The family’s black housekeeper mentioned that the sticker, which featured the Confederate flag, made her uncomfortable. Dale immediately took a pen knife and slashed the flag off his truck, leaving the expression of Southern pride while divorcing it from the region’s sour history.
i like to think that it was 6 days of play and 1 day of self care
Did I miss an internet? What’s with all the Dale memes lately?
For Dale it is done.
Come in on saturday? Come in on saturday? I think the fuck not, my clipboard-carrying friend. People didn’t die at Blair Mountain, Virginian coal miners and their families didn’t walk through chlorine gas and machine gun fire, so that your ironed shirt ass could ask me to come in on a saturday. In fact, you know what, pass me that Springfield rifle, I need to talk to the boss.
The Intimidator and his 'stache are quite right here
Love ya
Didn’t this dude work every Sunday?
And god put the weekend on saturday
So, you can still thank god it’s friday
(Also Henry Ford, not the unions, made the 5 day work week)
In Germany, it was the unions who made the 5 day work week. So we can still tell God to fuck off and thank our unions like OP intended
I also believe that he wanted to use the extra profits that Ford made to invest into better processes to make the cars cheaper and to increase the wages and conditions of the workers.
Then the share holders sued him saying that he had an obligation to give them their share of the profits and won…
That’s why big corporations always become soulless. They’re forced by the shareholders
So, you can still thank god it’s friday
But which god? Not the Christian one, because Friday is named after Freya, a Norse god. And Saturday was named after Saturn, a Roman god.
In Hebrew the days are named after numbers (day 1-7)
