White silence kills, but if we’re not silent then we’re virtue signaling?!

“Virtue signaling” is a term racists use to make others shut up about issues that should be vocalized. Ignore it.

C1 is right. This is what this term is now most frequently being used for in the current time.

Honestly i feel for white folks. Seems like you can't win. I would say ignore it all and keep being wonderful human to everyone.

Speak up when it matters - when racist shit is happening. Your voice carries more weight because you are white. That is action.

Virtue signaling is performative... for show.

Real talk: none of this shit surprises me. I think that everyone that is woke has been living under a rock their entire lives or is just jumping on the bandwagon of having the excuse of ignorance. Outside of technology plus reform in the justice provided for victims of police brutality, I don’t have many good solutions to offer and I’m keeping my mouth shut. Does that mean I’m not listening and willing to talk in a private setting? No. But screw putting my career on the line in one of the daily DEAI discussions that have been popping onto my work calendar.

Virtue signaling would be only in cases where you’re being anti-racist for the wrong reasons. You should be anti-racist because racism is wrong, not to make yourself look good. As long as you’re listening to PoC’s voices & sharing them, and not making your anti-racism about boosting your ego/image, you’re doing it right.

Hi Fishes,

If the gross CTC is more than 120K in Poland, tax will be 32% right?

Are there any other deductions apart from this?

My assumption is, we get atleast 68% of our gross. Are there any ways this can further reduce?

Hi guys currently I'm working in a project with very stringent timelines. Sometimes we need to put more than 13-14 hrs each day. There are 4 members in my team. Two are involved in database prt and me and my lead are involved in the front end and middle layer prt. Somehow my lead is not at all pleased with my work. And even if I try to talk to him for something he is completely rude. Sometimes it makes me that I m completely useless. Even the other team members are following the lead
