@WaynesWhirled @Patreon I've been a full-time activist for 8 years. I've worked at nonprofits, earning less than $18k to earning $52k/year depending on the job. I work for myself now. You think you're telling me new information by saying it doesn't pay well? No shit, Sherlock. I'm anti-capitalist. — PolitiTweet.org

@andywide1 @jeannie_noel @kroger Many jurisdictions are moving to criminal charges & fines for refusing to wear a mask. It's a public health issue. I don't want ANYONE in jail during a pandemic, but if you refuse to wear a mask, health authorities should compel you to or else lose your freedom to be in public. — PolitiTweet.org

@drphilsmydaddy The security officer was on duty, just refusing to do his job. The manager was his superior. — PolitiTweet.org

@WaynesWhirled @Patreon To answer your other question, I make very little doing this, but I would rather do activism & be poor than do anything else. I haven't made more than $10k/year in 5 years. I barter a lot, eg I'm an excellent cook; instead of hotels, I cook for/stay with supporters when I travel. — PolitiTweet.org

@WaynesWhirled I write, organize, do public speaking, fundraising, media, podcast, etc for leftist activism causes. Sometimes I speak at med schools about trans health for pay, other times I organize protests about police brutality etc, supported by my @Patreon patrons: https://t.co/7uz1EUez7g — PolitiTweet.org

@ejcrva I'm not on welfare. Do you mean my Patreon? I write/organize/raise money/speak/etc for activist causes and my Patreon supporters pledge an average of $5/month to make it possible. When possible, I charge for writing & speaking, but it's not a dealbreaker when it's for the cause. — PolitiTweet.org

Friendly reminder that cops are liars and that police unions are legally shielded from accountability for misconduct and excessive force in at least six ways. #Nixthe6 #FTP #ACAB #BlackLivesMatter https://t.co/gvwkOOdN24 https://t.co/ExW3Jn4XB2 — PolitiTweet.org

@kingjoy1990 @kroger Yes, and a hotline for reporting noncompliant businesses to the health department. Individuals face a fine for refusing to wear a mask in public. — PolitiTweet.org

"if"? Anyone who thinks @realDonaldTrump would EVER leave office voluntarily is either not paying attention, or flat-out delusional. He's going to prison as soon as he loses presidential immunity. He's already said in official WH statements he wants to stay in power BEYOND 2024 — PolitiTweet.org

Danielle Muscato (she/her) @DanielleMuscato

@seattlesong @kroger I DID TELL @KROGER that their paid detail isn't enforcing. I told the manager and when he failed to do anything about it either, I asked for his boss's name so I could escalate it to higher management. He refused and covered his nametag. That's the whole point of this? — PolitiTweet.org

Danielle Muscato (she/her) @DanielleMuscato

@seattlesong @kroger This isn't an employee, it's the manager and yes, actually it IS his job to confront anti-maskers, which by the way he did. He just didn't do anything beyond that. You don't know what you're talking about. https://t.co/EmS41pGhAu — PolitiTweet.org

Danielle Muscato (she/her) @DanielleMuscato

@glsander22 And yes, you are wrong. Min wage was established EXPLICITLY to be enough to live decently & NOT subsistence or even close to it. It's just a historical fact, I'm not going to argue with you about this. If you're unable to admit you're wrong about a fact I'm just gonna block you. — PolitiTweet.org

Danielle Muscato (she/her) @DanielleMuscato

@glsander22 If a business can't afford to pay its employees enough to survive, they deserve to go out of business. That's called exploitation. — PolitiTweet.org

Danielle Muscato (she/her) @DanielleMuscato

@glsander22 Incorrect. Since you're attempting to debate facts, time to change your argument against minimum wage not just with me in this thread, but forever and with everyone from now on, now that you know you're wrong. Min wage WAS always supposed to be a living wage. You've been lied to. https://t.co/jHV3xVjIV8 — PolitiTweet.org

@melsorbit Seriously, I had leftovers tonight. Are you just hoping to discredit me? Say what you are here to say. Do you think I don't deserve food because I don't work for a boss? — PolitiTweet.org

Danielle Muscato (she/her) @DanielleMuscato

@melsorbit Well, I'm self employed and freelance, that doesn't mean I don't do work, lol. Besides, your worth is not measured by your productivity. The dinner you're referring to was from Costco/cooked by me & cost less than $20 for the whole meal, which fed me for 2 whole days. Your point? — PolitiTweet.org

Danielle Muscato (she/her) @DanielleMuscato

@sassree @kroger "It's not voluntary, it's mandatory" - @GovAndyBeshear HOW WILL IT BE ENFORCED? WHAT IF I DON'T COMPLY? The order will be enforced by local health departments. People who repeatedly refuse to wear masks in public face a fine: https://t.co/asddwYfaxv — PolitiTweet.org

Danielle Muscato (she/her) @DanielleMuscato

@dgramlin1977 @frei57924 @kroger @TwitterSafety He wanted the buck to stop with him. He did not want me to escalate. Otherwise he would have just given me his boss's info when I asked for it. Stop making excuses for people who refuse to take public health seriously. He selfishly wanted the situation over rather than corrected. — PolitiTweet.org

Danielle Muscato (she/her) @DanielleMuscato

@dgramlin1977 @frei57924 @kroger @TwitterSafety I asked him for his name, title, and his boss's info so I could escalate the issue. THAT'S when he covered his nametag and flat out refused to tell me who his boss was. I TRIED to go about it the right way. He wouldn't let me. That's why I said fine, I'll hold you accountable. — PolitiTweet.org

@kroger Let alone customers. You're just flat out lying to us. You're not taking the mask ordinance seriously. You literally said in your internal memo not to enforce it. You are not in compliance. You should be ashamed of lying to your customers like this. — PolitiTweet.org

Danielle Muscato (she/her) @DanielleMuscato

@kroger The correct thing to do, if someone refuses to wear a mask, is what EVERY OTHER COMPLIANT BUSINESS DOES and say "we won't ring you up without a mask. It's by order of the governor, if you don't like it, take it up with your representatives." You are NOT PROTECTING YOUR OWN STAFF — PolitiTweet.org

Danielle Muscato (she/her) @DanielleMuscato

@kroger @kroger you're completely full of crap. Andy literally told me you don't enforce the mask ordinance even though Kentucky literally has a hotline you can call to report noncompliant businesses. Which I also did, by the way. — PolitiTweet.org

Danielle Muscato (she/her) @DanielleMuscato

@kenjilopezalt If you have a @johnboosco boos block, you're supposed to treat it monthly (minimum) with mineral oil overnight, then beeswax overnight, to keep it foodsafe. They sell their own stuff ("Mystery Oil" and "board cream") that works well but is a little pricey https://t.co/UgU1sxa8mG — PolitiTweet.org

sometimes I feel like the capitalists have forgotten that paying us a living wage was the deal we made for not dragging them out of their mansions and chopping their heads off in the town square — PolitiTweet.org
