Our form of capitalism is just what happens when capitalists try to placate the working class by giving them just barely enough breathing room that they stop actually revolting and keep to grumbling.

Some people do think that the society we exist in is just part of the natural order and that it's vain to try to change it or even care about it. I had an ex that was like that: whenever I tried talking about politics with her she would just go "What's the point of talking about it, we can't change anything anyway"
Placing cops in front of a bathroom just because a trans woman said she would go wash her hands there should sound crazy to anyone. It's sad that it's apparently just normal now
The UD absolutely could, but Microsoft couldn't without facing massive legal trouble. That is, if the US legal system follows through and actually enforces EU court orders.

I don't know, I might intellectually understand that morals are relative to a culture and that even our concept of universal human rights is an heritage of our colonial past and, on some level, trying to push our own values as the only morality that can exist. On a gut level though, I am entirely unable to consider that LGBT rights, gender equality or non-discrimination aren't inherently moral.
I don't think holding these two beliefs is weird, it's a natural contradiction worth debating and that's what I would expect from an ethics teacher
What's even funnier is that the MEP in question was (probably falsely) accused of being paid by the CIA to be a pro-american mole in the French Left last year
And yet Clair Obscur Expedition 33 is both super fun and breathtakingly beautiful
