“There are a lot more people out here living in abject poverty than what people like to think or admit to. You voted for this—and now we’re paying the price.”

Employees learned of the cuts on Monday in a video message from Michael Adams, CEO of BlueOval SK.

Adams announced the transition would mean “the end of all BlueOval SK positions in Kentucky.”

    Rare for me, and the vast majority of people.

    Not everyone has the privileged homebody life you may

    You’re really trying to throw an ad hominem attack at me, but your problems are systematic. Your problems aren’t with me, someone who wants you to have a better, less stressful life. You’ve got things twisted in your head.

      It’s not ad hominem, your argument is “people don’t sleep outside their house, the house they own, where they can install a charger for their car.”

      From this we can conclude you are privileged enough to afford a new(ish, at least) car, own a house, and you’re a homebody who by your own admission doesn’t often sleep outside of said house at a friend’s, girlfriend’s, relative’s, or hotel, thus privileged and a homebody.

      Would it be nice if every house had at least two or three car chargers so everyone could charge their cars at the same time and we could all go electric? Sure. Can everyone I know afford to buy a car, a house, and install the chargers? No. Am I going to install one at my house, one at my mom’s for when I visit, and one at my girlfriend’s apartment? Also no.

          I didn’t, the fact that you think people who can afford that stuff are the enemy is your own problem to solve, I even congratulated you on it.

          But I’m also informing you (apparently) that not everyone is in the same situation and able to do the same thing. Quite a lot of people in fact. For those people “just do it bro” doesn’t really work, you don’t have to take that fact personally.
