I can’t recall a single time in history where voting has defeated fascism.
Fascists mostly start by winning legitimate elections. Defeating fascism with votes would just look like Clinton winning the election instead of Trump.
You might as well say that you can’t recall a single time when having a visible security presence stopped a robbery.
I like huge anime titties more than this guy, but I have the decency not to advertise the fact to my neighbors.
I don’t know the meaning, either. Temba, his arms wide?
Agreed. With the added bonus that we have too live in the system while we burn it down. I’m not a huge fan of the idea, but then, I’m a maintainer by nature.
I have nifty tech, yes, but I also have vaccination deniers, Nazis, and my fourth “once in a lifetime” economic crises. I’m never going to buy a house. I’m never going to retire. I’ll probably never even pay off my student loans.
I personally think that, largely speaking, if imports are cheaper than local production, that’s a good thing!
I’m hardly an economist, right? But I agree with you, broadly speaking. But first covid, and now Trump round two is showing is the weakness of global integration. As long as everything goes smoothly, it’s jam for everyone. But let something screw up the logistics, or someone duck up the balance of trade, and everything can go to shit really fast. There are lots of things we can’t make here, but we rely on them. That is less than ideal.
I don’t know that tariffs are the way to address that issue, or even if it needs to be addressed at all. O do know that the way Trump is doing it is all wrong.
And now they are gonna get away with this, too.
I’d go with “deshittification,” myself. It’s not important how or why they are shit, just that they are, and the laws in question prevent us from fixing it.
The airport tried that shit on me today. I was able to make it print me a boarding pass, though.
I’m becoming a luddite in my middle age.
I think that’s a feature, not a bug.
I thought the whole point of Linux was that there was one for everyone? A computer itself is an incredible potent tool, but most people just want to use Facebook and YouTube.
How’s that working for you? I’ve got a surface, and I like it, but I know that Windows is not exactly an efficient piece of software.
I cannot express it as a single word, but I’ve become quite attached to “cause no unnecessary harm.”
I’m old enough to remember them promising, repeatedly, that the nude scanners didn’t, couldn’t save images.
Joke’s on them though. They can’t delete my pictures fast enough to avoid the trauma.
If there was a viable non-genocide candidate, o wolf have voted for him.
Most of us are not getting richer, nor working shorter hours, nor living better than our parents. We’re past “services” and on into “parasites.”
In principal, tariffs can prop up domestic industry that is having trouble competing with cheaper imported products. In practice, this winds up being really complicated, because the world is a lot more interdependent than it was 80 years ago.
Just like he was counting on China you need us more than we need them.
I really hate people who are constitutionally unable to negotiate in good faith.
I prefer the real Enterprise.
“I’m sorry you saw half a completed film and fell in love with it. But I want it to be the way I want it to be.”
And we want it to be the way we want it to be, and we are the ones who put money in your pocket.
And explained that he was using AI to do a part of the job that needs to be done by humans, because it helps them figure is the solution.
Is this some kind of advanced sarcasm? Because I’m not understanding what you’re trying to say.
