/u/outwrangle before everything went to shit in 2020, /u/emma_lazarus for a while after that, now I’m all queermunist!

  • We have solved the contradictions of capitalism by making workers into consumers, which means we are free to exploit the workers harder and harder until they can no longer consume.

    🤡

  • China's the only country Israel can't blackmail?

  • As far as I can tell it's not "especially" weapons export, it's exclusively weapons export. European arms embargoes are good, but China seems to have gone farther here and stands alone in willing to do a larger general ban. According to the article it's not just one company, China has declared that Israel is a "red zone" for investors and have prohibited any investment. Though, sure, this might actually just be something being made up for the lawsuit.

    The pragmatic choice would be to continue investing in Israel, which is why everyone else still does it.

  • Why isn't any other country making this pragmatic choice?

  • "It's bad on purpose, isn't it sooo subversive?"

  • So is their necromancy, since tons of people declared "executed" by tabloids are later seen alive.

  • Why is China the only country reading the room?

  • Yeah I was gonna say, swag bag Machato ripped the mask away. This shit is just a prize we give to the empire's dogs.

  • This Canadian chauvinism is really weird.

    The internet is international. If you don't want to talk to non-Canadians, go outside and talk to your neighbors. The internet is not for you because most people on most websites aren't Canadian.

  • Nope

  • >gets compliments

    "Am I being bullied?"

  • It's dangerous to Monsanto's bottom line, because they rely on having a monopoly on their seeds. I'd say farmers breaking patent law is a revolutionary act! But, at least for now, the government doesn't care if you save heirloom seeds or your own cultivars.

    For now.

  • She's finally going to establish a student loan debt forgiveness program for Pell Grant recipients who start a business that operates for three years in disadvantaged communities.

  • Then the government will try to make worms and plants illegal.

  • I think I had a youth group counselor that pointed out the devil probably took his soul anyway, simply for gambling with it.

  • A fiddle made of gold would sound terrible anyway.

  • Not authoritarianism: being the prison capital of the world, spying on everyone everywhere, police killing 1000+ a year, etc etc

  • That's intentional, they're making you feel insecure so you work harder.

  • There are degrees of sickness, right? An asshole business owner who feels entitled to run red lights and speed because they're white and have a nice car and know the police chief's son probably doesn't need life imprisonment or execution.

    I mean, I wouldn't really be too upset if they were, but it just seems wasteful.

    On the other end, people in the Epstein files might need to be hospitalized for more than a single human lifetime.

  • I'm so glad he got to live long enough to see his reputation ruined.
