JD Vance once again gets caught essentially saying he hates women? Colour me not surprised. I’m very surprised this man has children.

The reason for this is that homeschool advocacy groups are all far right grifters laundering money like PragerU and the HSLDF. The homeschool to alt-right pipeline is real.

No. Fascist WANT to be called pieces of shit. They WANT you to hate them. They can’t STAND being valued weird. That’s why it works. Fascist like being despised, it makes them feel powerful and important.

They’re comment is wrong. But non-marxian communism exists. For example council communism.

But a Tankie is basically a Leninist/Stalinist/Maoist communist who dick rides authoritarianism.

Y’know the French did this “publicly execute the rich” thing before. Worked out pretty great for them… maybe we should learn a thing or two.

They are terrorists. That’s literally what they are. The fact that attacked an evil fascist state’s city doesn’t change that.

“Hey so I know we’ve been doing a genocide but look, we’re being really nice when we bomb innocent civilians homes by letting them know we’re going to bomb their homes.”

This (a) doesn’t excuse literal genocide and (b) is just a “nicer” version of exactly the thing they’re appalled Hamas just did. You don’t get to cry foul if you’re going to retaliate with a tit for tat play.

Israel can’t be called terrorism because terrorism must be—by definition—unlawful

the unlawful use of violence and intimidation, especially against civilians, in the pursuit of political aims.

Emphasis mine.

Wars are by definition lawful. Sorry you’re wrong

It’s also not a twisted definition. It’s the literal dictionary definition that all countries use when defining terrorism.

And no, if war time acts were not lawful, all war is terrorism which it isn’t so again you’re wrong.

War crimes are explicitly not terrorism by definition.

Most Blu-ray’s now come with digital files. You can upload these to a server like Plex (this requires you to setup a Plex server which I don’t expect the average consumer to be capable of, but uploading it to a MacBook or whatever is basically enough) to digitise your collection. Now you still own the physical media, and have a digital version of it as well.

And this is completely legal.

You could also skip the buying the physical Blu-ray part. But that is less than legal (but you’re unlikely to get caught… just saying, yar har)

The only books I have physical copies of are for ttrpgs. And even then I have a digital copy.

Also, pretty sure it’s illegal in California to under CCPA, but there they could just turn off the lights. Which is why CCPA needs change in functionality clauses.

This is actually false. Students do indeed have constitutional rights. And you must meet the same strict scrutiny standard to restrict them.

The term dreads or dreadlocks is considered pretty racist depending on who you ask. But I’m not black so honestly wouldn’t take my word on the topic as gospel at all.

Constitutional protections such as the first amendment apply to minors as well.

Lauren Boebert's Beetlejuice companion owns pro-LGBT bar that hosted a drag show: report (www.rawstory.com)

Rep.

That companion is reportedly the owner of a pro-LGBT bar that has hosted a dra...

“Carnism” that’s the difference between vegans and non-vegans.

Only vegans view their diet as a lifestyle and shit on everyone else who isn’t vegan. We’re not “carnists” we don’t give a fuck really except that we hate vegans. Why? Because you lot are the pushiest, most openly judgemental, arrogant pieces of shit to walk the earth.

@Imotali@lemmy.world avatar

More than half of America lives paycheck to paycheck. Vegan options are more expensive. Until you fix the economic crisis and solve poverty you really can’t enforce veganism.

This isn’t even getting into the fact that vegan options are literally nonexistent in many places.

Oh but you don’t care about that because you only care about veganism because it allows you to feel morally superior to others.

See but you’re assuming that we agree to your axiomatic premise that there is no moral difference between the two.

We reject your premise. Prove there’s no difference.

Moral objectivism is pretty much the argument that inevitably always ends with an authoritarian regime to “eliminate” the “unethical” people from society. Germany first, and all that.

This “barter” economy as a primary means of exchange never existed. It’s a myth and a lie created by capitalists (actually by one Adam Smith) trying to rationalize the adoption of coinage and currency in ancient civilization.

In fact barter economies tend to arise predominantly in capitalism during periods of economic instability. Ie: after natural disasters, in war torn countries, etc.

The proper term you are looking for is “gift economy” and it is how the world worked before capitalism. I want something from you so you gift it to me with the implicit understanding that if in the future the roles are reversed I give something to you of relatively equal perceived value.

It was actually pretty rare that gifts were paid back in full in one transaction and often larger gifts were paid back through a series of transactions.

Where did I mention the 16th or 19th centuries? And mercantilism was 100% not a barter economy. It was a form of market economy controlled by the state… so I’m pretty sure it’s you who misunderstands what mercantilism is.

Imotali ,
@Imotali@lemmy.world avatar

Trade is not barter. And if it involved coinage or it isn’t barter. It’s a form of market economy.

Market Economy ≠ Barter

It’s also a massive waste of money and resources that could be used to fight actual, real crime.

So what your saying is the gun was drawn after she showed signs of non-violent escape?

Anything else is apologetics.

Fun fact, if they can prove the police deliberately delayed their response that’s a massive lawsuit.

The drag story hour thing (and pretty much all other culture wars) are designed to keep people outraged at the people trying to fix the country so that the few at the top can continue to other the one’s trying to fix the problems. Cause enough outrage to your political rivals trying to end your honey pot. Keeps the ones who fall for it from seeing past the curtain and the ones you target from being trusted/gaining momentum.

It’s funny… I could’ve sworn I remember a guy from Austria doing something really similar sometime around 1937…

This also ignores that since 2008 there has been a large exodus. Americans are leaving whenever they get the chance.

Could you maybe go over the process for how you got Italian citizenship? Trying to go through the process now with my fiancée and it’s… a lot (neither of us speaks Italian either).

Specifically, how did you go about requesting documents from Italy? How did you know which civil registry to request from? What if I can’t find the civil registry for the state her descendant is from?

I currently speak German, Dutch, Japanese and am learning Italian… just in case (and I realised I really enjoy learning languages)

A lot of them are terrified of LGBTQ people and mask it as outrage. They honestly believe the shit they get told and it terrifies them what the world is becoming.

This is because capitalism requires infinite growth… which is literally fucking impossible so everything either grows infinitely or dies… or option three: gets so fucking big it abuses governance to prevent itself from dying while murdering it’s competition.
