I said then, and I say now, that while there is a lower class, I am in it, and while there is a criminal element I am of it, and while there is a soul in prison, I am not free.
Anarchist/libsoc. If we’re stuck with a government, it should use its taxes for healthcare and education, not murdering.
That’s how I do it. Mainly YouTube and the eMails. But some of the bands I most listen to are more indie/obscure, so they play to their fans more than people on the level of Metalica and Taylor Swift.
A lot of farmers use farm hands from Mexico with permits and a form of green card that allows them to get paid in American dollars during work seasons to bring back home, and get a path towards American citizenship than if they just entered the country with a passport or applied directly for a visa.
I don’t know if a lot of contractors do the same thing, but I wouldn’t be shocked. The labor is cheap and it kinda looks good for the camera. Adam Raguesa, a YouTube chef, has a good video on how farmers in the modern era grow the crops we eat on the table every day.
We can and we have for similar crimes. Loitering is a crime only for the poor, and then we send the homeless into camps and jails.
You owned a plant that was previously fine to own? Straight to jail, no questions asked.
Well, seeing as 1/3 of Americans are brainwashed by mass media into following whatever hype train is set forth by the rich, I can see that. If their favorite corporate owned and ran “news” told them they didn’t need to eat, they would stop eating.
America is home to racist morons, has been since July 4th, 1776. Most of the Founding Fathers owned slaves, and the Senate and Electoral College were established to ease the slave owners/states that their “property” would remain theirs.
We’ve been a nation of hypocritical xenophobes who taught freedom and liberty while giving none of it to the majority, and every time we try to fix that they double down and make things worse. Not a single time has the US Government (or any government for that matter, but that’s more a “whatabout” in this topic) given people what they wanted freely, and peacefully.
If we wanted to get rid of brain dead morons, we would solved it in the Civil War and Reconstitution. Second chance was in the 1960s when we were breaking down the barriers. Instead we still placated to the racists because we didn’t want to be too mean to the racist, sexist morons who started the mess in the first place.
Stallman is often batshit insane, but when it comes to tech he knows what he’s saying.
I would trust a doctor when he says about something about my stomach, I wouldn’t trust them about astrophysics.
I would trust Stallman about how computers can be misused and mistreated, same as Cory Doctorow. I wouldn’t trust both about a small part of history, unless it was obvious or very well cited.
Maybe someday fascist dipshits like Musk will face punishment beyond mean words on Twitter. That won’t happen but a man can dream.
Man I wish he would just… do something? Anything? Trump is running without issue despite being a criminal. Several fascists are colluding and acting if they win or lose.
And yet the Department of Justice’s head is doing fucking nothing to these people! Does he want America to die?
It will take weeks to move forward, by then the election is over and certified by the House. Musk gets what he wants, justice isn’t done in time, and even if it gets to the courts, the courts are bought and sold to the highest bidder on lawyers.
Laws are for poor people.
Or just use Firefox and not deal with that.
Yes. Next question.
Thin narrow margin for Harris, several swing states are a new Florida of leaning and ballot counting taking forever. Then right wingers get upset, try to sue as they also then shoot local people for not sieg heiling Trump.
Harris enters office in Jan, makes some statements of how this is horrid, says she’ll do something to help it, but won’t solve the issues that make people consider being fascists who shoot mosques.
From there we’ll see the first 100 days of her term, and if the Senate and House are in favor, we might get some good bills in for a short term solutions to the long term diseases of American necrotic brain damage of conservatism.
For most people, nothing changes. Anti-trans bills are still in place, putting abortion back will be near impossible, and police will still shoot first ask questions second. Maybe some debts are cleared, weed is maybe legalized finally, but the county is the same as it was under Biden.
Man someone should give him the end of his political carrier that Mussolini got. The person who does has my respect for life.
So like 60% of the voter base abroad, makes sense.
Okay? I’m talking to her here. I could have direct messaged her if I didn’t want you to know.
There you go, now you’re not using sexuality as an insult. Keep it up and you might get to me. I’m starting to feel that spark of your neurons and synapses go off with that one.
If it helps, I’m anarchist. I don’t like the USSR or China or North Korea. Fuck every one of them. Fuck every single murder they’ve done in the name of their personal “freedom”. I’m just not above criticizing the country I live in, as Americans policies impact me more.
It’s call the 1st Amendment, something Trump fans don’t understand. I’m free to call America and it’s followers brainwashed morons who vote for right wing policies and act like it’s good when they do it.
I’m not going to support lies about things I disagree with. Queermunist isn’t right wing. She is more of a ML than I am. That doesn’t make her right wing, it means she can be okay with a use of force on the people in the name of her ideology. Authoritarism can come in many flavors, but she isn’t right wing.
Unless suddenly vegan food is a new right wing dog whistle, but Trump shit-for-brain weirdos don’t really like the idea not not eating beef and pork.
Didn’t say you did, weirdo.
Is using homophobic insults part of your inclusivity and ways of making people like you and the policies you support?
Because I don’t consider having someone using my sexuality to troll me really cool. It’s not cool with MLs do it, it’s not cool with Trump stans do it, and it’s not cool with liberals do it.
I know how the Internet works. Sorry you think people disagreeing with you means they’re a troll, super duper secret Trump supporters, and the mods everywhere are based against you in particular.
Now Cadeillac @lemmy.world is upset at you and others for calling out this user. I have to laugh or I’ll cry at how someone can be so blinded by the Overton window and thinking “if they disagree with me at all, they’re a troll and rhe mods everywhere are based against me!”
Word cloud?
