SOCIAL: THE TEXTILE INDUSTRY, HOW IT STARTED

Great Britain dominated the textile industry in C18. They had the rights to machinery and they didn’t allow other countries to produce it. People around the world working in this industry were stuck using the old hand loom. It was only during the time of Samuel Slater who created the first commercially functioning cotton mill in Slatersville, Rhode Island. This was the start of the industrial revolution. At this time, development on machines to replace the working people was high. Although these inventions were being created, many people suffered job loss. Moreover, people in factories were working in poor conditions. Employers would treat these people like disposable machines. They could only take so much. This caused people to rebel against the status quo. It is because of the developments in this age that we have improved textile machines. From the hands of these workers we have been able to refine the machines incrementally to produce the most efficient machines that we have in our modern era. We must therefore be grateful for those that have come before us who have contributed to the development of our industry. Not only should we be thanking those who owned the means of production but each and every worker as well, for if it was not for them, those who owned the means of production would have not had the technical knowledge to improve our textile machines. It is important to know that we are all valuable and we all provide our part to the, “Great Work”.

SHIRT OF THE DAY

SOCIAL: FREEDOM OF SPEECH

Why is China against Winnie the Pooh? I believe that China is against these memes because they want to protect their political establishment. The idea of such character to be associated with the supreme leader is so silly to them. Essentially, China is doing this because they want to be seen as serious. They don’t want to provide any possibility for their integrity to be jeopardized piece by piece. All this at the expense of freedom of speech. Is this wrong? Well from Chinas perspective, they are maintaining their authority. In criminology, this type of maintenance is a political crime. They are preventing their political establishment from regime change. From the perspective of the common person, yes it is wrong, because it goes against free speech. I am a firm believer of free speech and I sincerely believe that leftist, “bs,” to save the feelings of another is a way for the left to get a grasp on our societies. Lest we should be careful next time someone prevents us from speaking our mind.
