about 1/3 of americans of voting age do not vote. its not just that 3% who are unmoved by the two options served up by the decaying US political system

if you think he’s the only rich dude to say whatever he needs to get what he wants, i’ve got a bridge to sell ya

look into comprehensible input

Similarly, areas surrounding DC in Maryland and Virginia should be labeled DMV, not Chesapeake.

i have a disgusting amount of the plotly api memorized

You’re right, it is much worse. The goal is to breed them as quickly as possible, use them for their wool while they are useful for it, and kill them much younger than their lifespan for their meat. I think it would be a kindess to slowly stop that torturous cycle.

This is an anti-historical take. You can disagree with ML methods or ideology while still acknowledging where they have had material success in bringing about wins for the working class.

For something intended for people who haven’t read these books, there sure are a lot of spoilers.

it’s definitely not a movie best enjoyed sober

What a legend. Hexapodia as the key insight.

Adagio is phenomenal. I spend way too much money there.

By creating and attacking a strawman here you’re distracting from the important points. Hamas is a direct response to the oppression of the Palestinian people by Israel. It’s classic blowback and communists are just pointing out the obvious here. You can disagree that Hamas is deserving of critical support in the context of the current conflict, but if you ignore the conditions that led to Oct 7th and the fallout since you are taking the wrong lesson away from this issue and someday will be found on the wrong side of history.

We’re splitting hairs here but he was a US puppet that happily killed his opposition.

It’s perfectly fine to use “whataboutism” to counter tired talking points that do nothing to advance actual discourse. Like yea, people died in capitalist countries too, how is that in any way advancing a discussion about these differing economic systems. Go a step further, ask why these things happened in communist countries. Think about how they differ from similar situations in a capitalist country. Engage with the ideas and then we can have honest discourse.

It doesn’t mean literally eat them…

anticommunist nonsense

That Darwin run my god lol
