Nah, man. I’m saying the character of a person is relevant to their candidacy. There are lots of great progressive and DSA endorsed candidates this cycle. Platner doesn’t need to be the guy that every one circles around
… he honestly addressed the nazi tattoo? Cause I saw a politician’s response to that, rather than an honest response.
Listen, people being skeptical about the Blackrock Mercenary with the now-covered nazi tattoo that can speak pretty sounds like a pretty reasonable stance to take
Yeah, man. “The character of elected representatives isn’t relevant to how they’ll govern” is gonna be a tough sell, man.

Yeah, and the last colony was freed from European control in… oh wait. Oh no! It looks like that hasn’t happened yet.
Other dates to consider
1994, the end of South African Apartheid
2023‐current, intensified Israeli genocide of Gaza
Ongoing, cold war between Pakistan and India over the Kashmir region
Ongoing, Sudanese civil war
All that and more are current or very recent geopolitical conflicts that directly descend from European colonial ambitions and violence.
Everywhere on earth throughout all of history humans have been awful to each other.
A thought terminating cliché that lets you wiggle out of thinking about the impact your continent had and continues to have on the greater world. If you really think this way, you’ll never understand how the world works or how we can work to better it for everyone. Which is a huge disservice to both you and all of humanity.
Neglecting the evil Europe has done just so you can focus on the positives you have is exactly how y’all got into the colonizing business to begin with. Had to go wrestle control of the world away from those savages who don’t know how to run things correctly. It was for their own good, ya see (and for the profits)
Also, Italy, France, Germany, Hungary, Turkey, England, and Russia are all countries that are currently or are courting with outright fascism/authoritarianism. Maybe we think of that before you declare yourselves the beacon of democracy with no peers in the world, yeah?
Yeah, and most of the fucked up shit in the world is majority the responsibility of European settler colonialism. I’m from the states and most of the fucked up shit in this country is because y’all sent all your fucking wackjobs over here in the 16th and 17th centuries. Africa, the entire continent, is still fucked by all your colonies.
Like, don’t get me wrong, you’re sitting pretty. But the cost of all that pretty sitting was bore by the rest of the world.
Yeah man. Rob the world, sit on the spoils until your oligarchs get restless and then release them on a “new market” (see, new victims). Based af /s
and it won’t be me paying for it.
Damn. What’s it like living on another planet? Cause that’s the only way that statement makes any sense.
You can’t personal responsibility away the failures of the system, my man
Jump through the shame hoops, poor! Perform for rich daddy! Be shamed for being a poor and denying us our profits!

UBI is a thought terminating cliché. It’s meant to put off the question of what the hell is gonna happen when labor isn’t needed until it’s too late for labor to be able to do anything about it.
They can’t care. If they don’t relentlessly pursue profit quarter after quarter, they’ll be consumed by companies who will. There is no planning for the future, only profits.
This won’t break copyright for plebians, just for corpos. Any “Rules for thee” bullshit is bullshit. I’m gonna get mad at it and it’s deserved.
EU’s stated reason for abstaining is
1, use of superlatives
2, bias in presentation, against UN charter
3, they’re against reparations
I dunno man, it really just smells like they don’t want to pay up for their crimes against humanity. When your first two points are nit picking and your last one is “and we were told we wouldn’t have to answer for shitty things before we made rules about it”, it’s kinda giving away why you’re against it.
Yeah, unfortunately the marketing people have made the LLM synonymous to AI. It’s a damn shame.
I’m on year 5 of mine. Literally no issues
11·4 months agoWinning 60% of the rounds, and you still haven’t more money than the player who started with more. Is that not proof of the concept?
Also, yes, this game tickles in a good way.
No, what?
The premise is “people wouldn’t choose to do certain work unless they were coerced into”. I retorted “I want that work you think I’d have to be coerced into doing”
Manual labor is undervalued, making it “one of the jobs that people have to be coerced into doing”. By stating my desire to do it above “high value, mental labor”, I undercut their assertion that there are jobs that require coercion to get performed. There are people who want to clean, cook, do manual labor, do administrative work, accounting, cleaning up shit, building, basically everything a society needs to exist. Coercion need not apply.
Not a fact, an assumption based on an assumption baked into this economic system.
If I could live on the salary, I would prefer a manual labor job.
Hey, making food is something we need. Hallucination bots are a new, unnecessary use of water in a time when water is already becoming scarcer due to global warming. Stop sane washing their massive waste, thanks!
