“As Ukraine’s struggle against Russia and its proxies continues,”

Some Reuters reporter’s interpretation of the war proves nothing.

Why is it whenever you tankie clowns post this crap it’s always rags like truthout.org and never wikipedia??

Also, the majority of news articles I posted in my “gish gallop” is from a mainstream corporate outlet, so you’ve clowned yourself.

I still wonder how Brautigam & Rithmire managed to slip that one into the neoliberal Atlantic; it seems they’ve never been invited back.

Windows is always going to be proprietary software, so I’m never going to give it the time of day.
Next question.

Uh, China doesn’t forgive the loans, they seize the assets, that’s the whole point of debt colonialism.

Show me these supposed seizures; you’re talking out your ass. Imperial core corporate media are projecting their own states’ neocolonialism onto China, and you’re accepting their propaganda like a good Council on Foreign Relations consumer.

Firstly humans having lizard brains is pop science nonsense, and secondly humans and lizards are amniotes. And thirdly, the Android userland is Apache 2.0 licensed, regardless of whatever proprietary apps might or might not be installed on top of it, and the vast majority of Linux distros’ kernels have proprietary binary blob drivers installed in them.

If you can root your phone, probably some of them, perhaps many of them, but that probably wouldn’t make for a very good phone.

This is some ass-backwards logic. You’re trying to redefine Linux and then declaring that Android does not meet your novel definition. If Android, Alpine, and Chimera are not Linux, then what are they?

It’s already running Linux. You just showed us a screenshot of it running Android, which is Linux.

You’ve been led to believe some bullshit by Western corporate media. Meanwhile, in the Land of the Free™: Illegal child labor surging in the U.S.

The CNN Freedom Project is shining a light on illegal child labor. It’s often considered a problem mainly in developing countries, but it’s surged 88% in the United States over the past five years.

This would imply that Putin is a puppet-mastering Übermensch. I guess Russiagate is a transatlantic conspiracy theory.

It was an instrument used by the burghers in bringing about the end of European feudal lordship, replacing the feudal mode of production with the capitalist one.
