Welcome
We're not The Onion! Not affiliated with them in any way! Not operated by them in any way! All the news here is real!
The Rules
Posts must be:
- Links to news stories from...
- ...credible sources, with...
- ...their original headlines, that...
- ...would make people who see the headline think, “That has got to be a story from The Onion, America’s Finest News Source.”
Comments must abide by the server rules for Lemmy.world and generally abstain from trollish, bigoted, or otherwise disruptive behavior that makes this community less fun for everyone.
And that’s basically it!

Vegas is run by people paid below minimum wage.
Cute. They took the passports of Indians who traveled there to build it.
And employers in Vegas threaten the immigrants with deportation if they complain to any authorities about the work conditions. Stop pretending Vegas is somehow good in any way.
And yes, Dubai has bad working conditions too.
I never said Vegas is good. The CO2 cost alone makes it a no go for me.

Btw, I'm using the word "Slave" because the migrant workers are having their passports confiscated to prevent them from going home. That's way worse then threatening to depot migrant workers.
