At what point is someone wealthy using gapminder levels of income where level 1 is earning $2 a day, level 2 is $8, level 3 $32, etcetera?
And at what point is a person in power?
Is Zelensky in power? Xi Jinping?
Greta Thunberg? John Oliver?
JT Chapman? Karl Marx?
The admin of this site?
You mean the effect of the Milgram experiment where people tend to follow authority as long as they think the authority is legit? And what the leading authority of the Stanford experiment has been accused of doing?
No they wouldn’t.
Even the capitalists are behaving differently and more humane compared the fuedalists of the middle ages.
That’s actually the main reason why communism and socialism even exists, as a prediction to say what will come after capitalism to the naysayers saying that there’s no such thing as social progress.
And the only Bobs left have trouble saying ‘yes we can’ or ‘no we can not.’
“Lions are the boys and tigers are the girls.”
Sorry about that.
The internet didn’t exist yet and I hadn’t seen a tiger in a while.
The “no mane” part started to confuse me as different species.
People who choose to suppress a growing power with the idea that they can easily win,
then make it look like they’re the victims when the victims decide to fight back,
with the ones standing up to themselves becoming stronger and stronger over time,
and the suppressing people choosing to never negotiate a losing battle/war
apart from demanding that the winning party makes concessions to let them win,
deserve to die through the consequences of their own actions.
Bonus points for those people who fly banners of freedom and progressiveness
while their organizers get paid by doing the bidding
of oppressive conservative foreign agents
who want their country to regress for their own gains of power.
And while displaying their wicked pop-culture chants, posters and gestures,
are often demanding their government to retract a reasonable proposal such as
‘murder, and that includes any incel strangling his perceived girlfriend to death,
should be made illegal, even if you’re on a vacation’
or ‘stop taking money from foreign agents’
that are mild copies of laws from said foreign agents’ country.
And even more bonus points for the appointed new leader
legitimized through a so-called international award of good behavior.
And I say this because while all the hypocrisy is absolutely infuriating,
to top it off by trying to chop off the hand and head
that tries to give you mercy, then there’s no redemption,
only more and more defense against
a more and more deadly risky liable escalation
Trade Bitcoin.
Oh you mean like as an experience?
Watch anime?
He’s responding to your nonsense.
Baby don’t hurt me.
Tsk tsk!
This selfhu-miliationland-culture* apparently
needs to keep looking up to the language where it’s main country
is currently sliding further and further towards fascism.
* Wordplay on the Netherlands and humilation
Yes and the manual install taught me how to deal with DEs refusing to start without having to do a full reinstall.
It’s such a pleasure to be able to save your setup no matter what the issue, apart from the time I accidentally erased my hard drive with a sudo rm -rf * command that was supposed to wipe a USB drive.
EndeavourOS if you’ve never used Linux before.
Arch if you’ve played around with Linux, but want to learn some more basic terminal stuff so that in case your Desktop Environment breaks down, you know what to do to get it back up again without a full reinstall.
It’s also missing the “Uyghurs in concentration camp” picture.
The sounds English makes is pretty good,
but I don’t know if it’s the culture or the language itself,
but it has a giant tendency to want to use a
euphanisms and dysphemisms to emphasize superiority
over other languages and cultures
and also has a giant tendency to use weasel words,
to weasel in authoritarianisms.
I have no clue, but it’ll be better than a language that thinks it’s acceptable for words like “read”
to not just have two different meaning, but two different pronunciations,
while also having words like “sense”, “scents” and “cents” be pronounced exactly the same.
And while writing this, I just learned that pronunciation should be spelled with “u” instead of “ou”.
That makes no sense.
Nou ja zeg!
Dit zelfver-nederland-cultuurtje moet blijkbaar
nog altijd blijven opkijken naar de taal waar het hoofdland
op dit moment afglijdt naar het fascisme.
Lojban for now
Certainly not Esperanto
Yeah, so I have a problem with #1 and #2 as to what we were taught.
Because what usually happens is…
You don’t need to raise questions then.
The only time you raise questions is when there’s a lack of knowledge on the thing
and I think it’s more often the case that your theory starts when there IS knowledge,
but you think it’s either externally wrong (that’s not how the balls fall when I drop them from the leaning tower of Pisa)
or internally wrong (This author is saying balls and objects in general fall due to air pressure, but in another book the author says balloons float due to air pressure, huh?!?)
Oh!? Well this is my head-cannon of the diffences…
US Communists - Just buses? Are you kidding me? We need at least 50k km of highspeed rail, make rail travel free for all, even tourists! And seize all gigafactories and data centers to pay for it.
US Democratic Socialist - Let’s do what Europe does* and provide free bus passes next to free healthcare.
US Progressive - Let the free-market decide for men. Free bus passes only for people of minoritized identities and only if the bus will combat climate change, so diesel buses are out of the question.
US Liberal - Let the free-market decide. Free bus passes if you can prove that you’re using it to go to work.
US Right-wing - Rob the poor blind! Those who don’t contribute to society, should be punished for it. And no buses. If you need a ride, buy a car. If you can’t afford one, then get a job you filthy commie! Also, it’s the rich that contribute to society, so it should be the poor who should pay the most taxes in order to help those who keep the US economy thriving.
US fascist - Transportation should be free for everyone, but especially for the native Americans. We believe in the power of the native Americans. And this all the fault of the rich. So kill the rich, kill the rich, kill the rich…Juice! Buses are part of their (((globalist elite))) agenda, the agenda of “you will own nothing and be happy”. Look up who runs the WEF. Pay good attention to their ((( affiliations ))). So let us native Americans, who speak English and aren’t brown, unite against the Khazarian (((billionaires))) and their brown globalist allies. We should provide free bus passes for non-native Americans however, under the condition that they’re run by ICE and only with destinations outside of the US.
