The owner of the meat processing plant was ordered to pay a whopping $1143 to a teen who lost his hand in a meat grinder
In a proper country like China the business owners would be in front of a firing squad by now
Edit: what the fuck did I just start
Bold move, praising a genocidal dictatorship.
Hey remember when China killed 4.5 million Muslims after 9/11 and no one went to prison
No of course you don’t, cause you’re a shitlib
I’m not used to the federation thing yet, I saw this comment and assumed sarcasm, forgot there were dipshits out there that actually think this and that Adrian Zenz is a “reliable source”.
I didn’t see anybody praising America?

Buddy you forgot to call them authoritarian!
China isn’t run by one person lol
As opposed to the bourgeois dictatorship of the US
Child Labor fans when someone suggests that child labor is a moral outrage:
Wait, you mean China? Have you even read the party planning bulletin?
Contributing to the strugglesession by adding “oh yeah, then what happened to the owners of Foxconn?” and immediately doubling down when people point out that Foxconn is a Taiwanese company by saying “oh I thought Taiwan was part of China”
Lol, don’t know where to start with your comment
You understand it’s the right pushing for this, not the left, correct?
You understand you’re not on the left, right?
Oh it’s like the good old days of the sub
Ionia County Judge Ray Voet said the accident was a “horrible tragedy” but didn’t warrant jail or probation for Darin Wilbur (Owner)
If a homeless man sneezed on someone he’d be calling for the death penalty.
“Two months later, we wouldn’t even be here,” the judge said, noting that the teen soon would have turned 18 years old.
The $1100 fine for permanently disabiling a child was too much.
Defense attorney Howard Van Den Heuvel said Wilbur hired the teen, a high school dropout, as a way to help him. He said the boy was warned to never put his hand inside the grinder.
Blame the child who lost their hand to a greedy boss.
“Two months later, we wouldn’t even be here,” the judge said, noting that the teen soon would have turned 18 years old.
Not to excuse this callous fuck of a judge, but yes, this happens all the fucking time in slaughterhouses and nobody bats an eye. Killing and chopping up animals is a brutalizing, inhumane business not only to the creatures that are murdered for the treats, but also to the workers who perform the gruesome labor, frequently because they are in such a precarious position they need to take this kind of job that over time maims both the body and the soul of those employed in it. Factory settings are heavy on work accidents to begin with, but “meat processing” is about the worst it gets in terms of workplace safety.
Which is why most nations at least aren’t barbaric enough to let kids do this work.
“I can’t believe you mutilated your hand after I specifically told you not to, wtf”
“Children’s hands just yearn for the shredder. What are you going to do in the end?”
