It’s a fascinating story that’s worth a deeper dive if you’re interested.

Monopoly was originally called “The Landlord’s Game” and it was invented by a woman in 1903.
It was meant to illustrate the dangers of unchecked capitalism.
Then it was stolen by a man and turned into the game we know today.

News@lemmy.world•DNC releases 2024 autopsy, with chair apologizing for ‘creating an even bigger distraction’
33·7 days agoThe diagnosis includes underfunded state parties and Democratic declines in voter registration. The report also stated that a “persistent inability or unwillingness to listen to all voters has provided the other major party with opportunities for advancement at the expense of Democratic growth, evolution, and ability to find common ground with seemingly disparate groups of voters from coast to coast, and the heartland Democrats tend to ignore.”
The report also criticizes Democrats for relying too heavily on Republicans to “nominate deeply flawed candidates,” adding that “regaining trust and confidence in the party” and giving voters an “affirmative reason to support Democrats” will “take a comprehensive strategy and considerable effort over multiple cycles.”
Shocked! I’m shocked, I tell you!

11·7 days agoI read that section of the article and wasn’t confused about her general retelling of her work history and favorite jobs. The idea that only people above 18 work is preposterous. Especially when the article detailed that she was already a skilled laborer by the age of 14.
No, I was simply stating how I felt about it because I think it’s a damn shame that the real story here got obfuscated by a hyper focus on a small detail.
Apologies on the assumption, Lemmy is so overwhelmingly male and misogynistic that it’s easy to miss the rare woman here.

11·7 days agoYou misread the article and immediately jumped to conclusions about her work history.
I’m allowed to feel annoyed that a group of men decided it was more important to nitpick a woman’s story than to feel sympathy or outrage at her mistreatment.
It’s not an obvious stance and it’s laughable when men assert this. If it was an obvious stance, we’d be working harder to eliminate these types of egregious and horrific treatments of women.
Instead there’s more comments about the odd pacing of a brief retelling of the victim’s work history.
Shame.

21·7 days agoYou missed the point of the article/story. You ignored this woman’s plight to nitpick about her employment years.
You derailed the conversation about women being charged for miscarriages to complain about a small error.

23·7 days agoI’ve been on Lemmy long enough to be aware of the pervasive anti-women culture here.
You couldn’t even express a single word of sympathy. Just nitpicking and casting her as untrustworthy.

21·8 days agoThe fact that those men decided to only talk about that one small detail in this entire fucked up story says more than anything.
Not even a passing comment about how terrible this would have been for her to endure. No sympathy, nothing.
Just speculation about how she couldn’t possibly have started working until later than she claimed.

8·8 days agoNo, snail mucin is very expensive and mostly used for skincare. It would be idiotic to pay that amount of money just for lube.

You’re totally right, I was working off of faulty memory or old info.
