Still gotta vote blue no matter who guys. Genocide Joe is the MOST PROGRESSIVE PRESIDENT OF OUR LIFETIME.

What, these people are complicit in a genocide and shouldn't be supported? You're just giving your vote to Trump then!

Mac OS 7. By the mid-2000s, I adopted Arch Linux after looking into some other Linux distributions.

Are you a 'tankie' in c/[email protected]

YES

If wanting to receive basic human rights (food, housing, etc.), attend education without being discriminated against for my income and mental condition, control my workplace, earn the full value of my wages, have a government actually controlled by the people, all while being politically educated in past socialist movements and their theory to achieve all these things, then I'm sure as hell am a tankie, and I don't care what online liberals say.

Stalin rules, by the way. ✊

They are evil, but that doesn't come out of nowhere. It comes from needing to violently enforce the demands of an oppressive, exploitive system.

American legal parlance is a nothingburger, not its actual real-world effects. This ruling has considerable effects in the states it's relevant in.

In the show "3 Body Problem" (I haven't read the book) the statement was made **'our civilization is no longer capable of solving its own problems'**. Would you agree? in c/[email protected]

Capitalist realism. Human society has always been able to solve its problems. The issue is capitalism — our current society — can't solve the problems it created like massive wars, hunger, regular economic crisis, and global warming.

Capitalism hasn't existed forever, and it won't exist in the future. Our civilization will solve the problem of capitalism by seeing to its abolition.
