Yes that is the legal justification. I am not interested in the legal justification. Laws are not inherently good. They were clearly paid less than their worth if there's six figure payouts to be had here.
This is the fundamental injustice of capitalism. The owner pays you a small amount and keeps all the profits. A child would recognize that as unfair.
This feels like theft. Maybe not technically legally but the people who did the chatting aren't getting the money. Capitalist hellscape
Parents raised their own alarms, with several pointing to the political division Kirk's presence would inevitably import onto campus
Peeve: it's not the division that's the problem. It's the hate and lies.
There's also the class of comments that explain strange business decisions.

Kind of arbitrary but someone with decision making power decreed it.
It's because leadership is a heady cocktail of stupid and selfish.
I really want to stress stupid. That means they draw bad conclusions from facts.
Sometimes selfish is a factor. They have an obscure reason like "my share value goes up because we get a kickback from the city for staffing an office here". They don't care if it's bad for everyone else or the company long term. They'll get their money and then leave.
Pop!_os has been fine for me. I'm not a tinkerer. It's a machine for a web browser and video games.
Microsoft is probably salivating at the idea of being the only legal OS provider.
I sincerely believe that being rich is bad some kinds of intelligence You don't have to deal with problems. You just brute force your way through with money. You don't have to practice restraint and delayed gratification. You can just buy the thing now.
Furthermore, if you are being paid the same but your productivity goes up, and the owner keeps all the new profits, you're being robbed.
I have no regrets from setting my editor to save-on-blur
They're still there for, well, I can think of three reasons.
People vote for them. Organizing people to vote is hard for various reasons, but that mechanism is still present.
They're not murdered. Always an option, but certainly an escalation that doesn't scale well.
They're not expelled. Wikipedia says "In the entire history of the United States Congress, 21 members have been expelled: 15 from the Senate and six from the House of Representatives. Of these 21 members, 17 were expelled for supporting the Confederate States in 1861 and 1862. ", so that's not a commonly used option.
Personally I worry that if non-violent options fail, more people will see violence as an acceptable option.
Yep. Infrastructure shouldn't be privately owned.
