    In the US? The rich got richer and threw parties with pyramids of pulpless orange halves, until the depression started and they remained rich

    Any Working Class, class consciousness generated by the inequality of the day (Actually less than the inequality of today in many ways: the top 0.00001% of wealth holders held 0.85% of total wealth during the golden age and 1.35% today)
    and fostered by people and orgs like the IWW,
    was eventually neutralised by the Keynesianism(military and otherwise) of the New Deal

    Byron was a super-famous poet before this competition, and he wrote Draculawhat would late inspire Dracula during this, not to belay the point Mary Shelley is far more well known generally than George Gordon Byron. But 'Lord Byron' is still very well known if short being a household like Shelley, especially in the UK or with those with even a passing internet in English language poetry

    Fun facts, The competition was inspired by the gloominess caused by the 'Year without a Summer' which it was the time 1816

    And Shelly's mother was Mary Wollstonecraft an early women's liberation writer and activist 'the Mother of modern Feminism' (very influential on the suffragetes)
    and Byron's daughter but not the one he had with Shelly was Ada Lovelace the OG coder

    You can see it in ways many times what am organisation doesn't fight for,

    Do you have specific examples?

    The law that based on quality of work below minimum wage can be paid is inherently ableist because now capital can point to the bias that disabled people are less capable and do worse work to pay them less.

    Most leftist and orgs I'm familiar with are staunchly against anyone being paid less than minimum wage(and that's at the very least most believe everyone's wages should be increased, although (rightly) some do not discuss it in favour of advocating directly for proletariat socialist revolution instead of incremental reforms to capitalism)

    We know but it's an option between 'this article/paper/page looks interesting but I'm doing something else so I'll leave it open a come back to it maybe'

    And adding everything you don't immediately read to bookmarks leads to having 100(0)+ bookmarks drowning out the useful ones and they still have almost the same chance as being read as an old open tab( personally I like to DL full webpages when clearing down tabs and see something interesting but that I'm not going consume right then and there, but that doesn't always capture all the media but at least you have a record, and reference to look it back up)

    The Polish guy is far right Catholic nationalist nazbol but slightly better than the actual the actual in SS units, Nazi collaborators who engaged in genocide against many people including the Poles

    Also the Polish guy is head of a fringe party with 0 seats in Senate, the defence of the UPA comes from the Ukrainian state itself
