“What do we do here?”
“Fundraise so we can afford more unpaid interns”
The red boxes distract you from the part tthat really oughtoought to be highlighted: the part where they admit they are, despite their name, actually fighting against human rights.
Finally a non-profit dedicated to fighting human rights
Touché
I noticed that too and lol’d at it heartily.
They are also working to fight the issues of proper grammar.

Not a very solid recruitment strategy, as it comes off as unprofessional. But then maybe that’s a good way to weed out the people who would expect compensation for their labor
Well except you get to choose to join or leave. Kind of the key difference between slavery and volunteerism.
Is it a key difference though ?
If you exploit people that has only one choice : Taking whatever shit job they can… Barely paid enough to survive. They are not slave per se but their boss couldn’t be happier to have cheap labor that has no leverage whatsoever and would accept anything anyway. It is farming desperation.
To some extent I think some big business are borderline slave owners even though you could say all their slaves could leave their job and die from hunger if they wish to do so. They could voluntarily choose death over basically being owned by another human but surprisingly enough most dont do that.
Is it a key difference though ?
Yes, yes it is. Unequivocally so.

You’re looking at a post for an internship. This is not about “taking any shit job they can”. How is that not obvious to you?

Desperate people aren’t seeking unpaid internships. Again, painfully obvious.

What a fucking disgrace to the historical horrors of chattel slavery. You’re not a slave when you choose to work somewhere and can leave when you want. People having to have jobs to get money to buy good isn’t slavery. A business NOT paying you when you do NO WORK for them is not slavery, you ignoramus.
I mean at least it’s a charity. Of course that doesn’t make it any less ironic, but at least they aren’t asking you to generate profit for free for some billionaire.
I do believe there will be a post-ironic era noted in history. Satire died long ago. Maybe Nuclear Humour will take off?
You could use nuclear humour, just make sure you’re not fission for laughs
Delivery method is super critical though, so be careful
My control is limited to a Chernobyl pool
Your fusion of science and irony is split my side.
I mean if it’s a charity than it is essentially a voluntary position, which is okay. Just bad wording.
In a system that doesn’t require experience at these “unpaid internships” to get a paying job, sure.
We working
Thank you to whoever for using Palps. Feel like folks don’t use this still enough.
But but but employees of Non Profit Organizations all work for free, right?? riiiiiighht?
“It’s not slavery when we call it something else”
It’s not slavery because the position is voluntary.
When the system doesn’t require unpaid labor to get a paying job or further education.
(As a note guess what a lot of nursing programs require that are conspicuously absent from medical school requirements)
