What an asinine question. If the time for a revolution has truly arrived, my loved ones are already in danger. Their lives and way of life already at risk. It’s funny how close we are to that point now, way closer than when this comment chain started. People are celebrating Luigi and you’re still here trying to say blood shouldn’t be spilled.
So there is definitely more to it as plenty of people have already explained, but when it comes to Elon and Rowling they both have personal reasons for their anti-trans beliefs. Rowling was sexually assaulted, and now finds the idea of, in her words, “men pretending to be women” utterly terrifying due to her PTSD, and is seemingly incapable of seeing trans women any other way.
Elon on the other hand went through a bunch of drama bs with his family, he’s got at least one trans kid who has disowned him, and he spiralled out from there, eventually finding a place among the far-right Nazis who have only reinforced his preconceptions about trans people and trans kids.
No idea what the fuck Zuck’s trans villain origin story is though.
I get where you’re coming from, but idk man, it’s not that hard to buy a democratic senator to vote the way you want. I think simply assuming that every corporation is pushing for Republicans, and is targeting Democrat voters is probably a slippery slope, but that said I get that in the US corpos tend to suck regardless of which side of the isle they have decided to purchase. It’s a shame you didn’t have any more concrete sources though, that kind of claim you made earlier would be fun to throw around if I were able to back it up lol. As it is, personally I doubt that the rising prices are due to anything beyond corporate greed alongside several external factors like bird flu and eggs in CO being required by law now to be cage free.
I was being completely sincere actually. Not sure what is so offensive about asking for someone to back up a claim like that.
So I agree that food in the US is 100% run by monopolies. Just look at Tyson. What I’d like a source for though personally, is your claim that these monopolies have “had it in the playbook for thirty years” to punish voters for not voting Republican. That specific part is the aspect that I think you actually need to source. It’s quite a claim.
I don’t think it’s about enjoying the content. I don’t filter it because I like having a firm grasp on what is happening politically in the world. As annoying, frustrating, and anxiety inducing as it is, Trump and Musk are two figures that are currently doing everything they can to fuck up our planet and governments so that they can make a few bucks. Yes there is a lot of musk and Trump content, but sticking your head in the sand and hoping it doesn’t effect you until it’s over is probably not the best way to handle it. I haven’t been on Reddit in years, but I recall it being the same situation there during Trump’s first term, there was just a little more non-political content to help dilute it due to the larger user-base.
My guess is that it has to do with rights to the ocean floor.
In my experience, Linux Mint “just works”. What you’re describing are distros like arch.
There is a dude who did exactly that while committing a murder and got caught. I think this article is talking about the case I’m thinking of: https://www.theguardian.com/uk-news/2023/feb/02/man-charged-with-ni-faked-live-stream-to-provide-alibi
Why would you be against human-robot marriage? What do you have against the robosexuals?
Is that the same thing we Americans refer to as an “English Muffin”? I always thought crumpets were cookies or something lol.
Fuckin’ yikes.
Then you wait until you get home or to an otherwise appropriate venue. No one wants to hear a tutorial they didn’t ask for about putting up drywall on their commute home or in the grocery store.
Years ago I would’ve argued real money is backed by something like gold, but here we are now, basing most currency globally off the USD which is just fiat money. So yeah, there really isn’t anything making USD more legitimate than Bitcoin as long as humans are associating value to it.
I’m not really sure how to prove this in a Lemmy comment without doxing myself, so suffice it to say that yes, I would gladly lay down my life to defend my beliefs.
Fuck that, get violent. Revolutions are never bloodless.
I mean, the people making them, for one.
You mean 2002 and 2003, right?
But why would you want to complete a campaign of this game to begin with? What do you find appealing about the Fatal system?
