If you ask two white guys when Elon made a turn to the hard right, they'll tell you "2020! Or maybe 2022!"🤡
Because that's easier than the self-reflection required to say, "Black people saw it way before that, but I only saw it in 2020 or 2022, and I can't accept that I missed something so big."

This is a reminder that you can still ask real people for advice and recommendations. You don't have to ask the robot for everything. In fact there are some things you definitely should not be asking the robot about.
When you consider the mysterious deaths of BLM activists over the years, not to mention a century of surveilling Black movement leaders, this is quite something

This is what Israel has done to Bint Jbeil, my hometown in southern Lebanon

It isn’t sex tourism, it’s imperialism.
A flatscreen display on a "smart" water fountain, demanding to be reconnected to the internet.
In 1999, I was playing a decker in Shadowrun, and tried to distract a guard by hacking a water fountain to overflow, and my GM said "why would a water fountain be on the network? That's fucking stupid. No you can't try."
Well it's 2026 and I just want you to know, Phil, that I FUCKING CALLED IT!
The decision to remove all the blue screen info from Windows was a horrible decision.
"What's the first thing they teach you about guns? Always assume they are loaded even if you know it's not. You can't tell if a gun is loaded just by looking at it.
Same with women. They can't tell if a man is going to explode on her just by looking at him so she must treat every man as if he is"
Patriarchy is at the root of all the gender, sexuality, family, and community problems in this society. You can’t point at an orchard planted with evil intent and say “a few bad apples spoil the bunch”. Just like white supremacy wont go away by removing a few Trumps and Elons
Three Lime bikes parked blocking the sidewalk and ramp.
I fucking hate Lime. Fuck the city for letting them do this.
Image features a quote from Kim Il Sung, titled "Talk to Senior Officials of the Ministry of Public Health, 1966." The text reads: "Socialist, people-oriented medical science is fundamentally different from bourgeois medicine. ...the prevention of diseases is not in the interests of capitalists. They are interested in selling as much medicine as possible and so they would prefer a large number of people to fall ill, and they encourage diseases. By contrast, the chief factor in socialist medicine is prevention. In other words, it is to take measures to prevent people from contracting diseases. We can therefore say that socialist medicine is preventive medicine." The quote is presented in a plain, serif font on a light background, with "Kim Il Sung" in bold at the top.
Western capitalism treats healthcare as a profit center, not a human right. Pharma giants profit from chronic illnesses, and not cures. Insurance companies deny coverage to boost stock prices, while preventative care is underfunded because healthy people don't buy pills.
The other thing is that in a gig economy there is no degree that promises a good career anymore, not because you should have studied computer science or social media management instead of history or Russian literature, but because there are no careers
Israel destroyed all of the town of Al-Khiam in southern Lebanon within a month.
No, you are CORRECT.
"If Swalwell was guilty, his accusers would file charges" is a thing I keep seeing. But here's the thing: it's absolutely NOT how the system works.
ONLY PROSECUTORS CAN FILE CRIMINAL CHARGES IN THE US LEGAL SYSTEM.
This is why I hate dog owners
headline: gen z doesn't want your full-time job. They want several part-time roles, and it's reshaping the entire workforce.
This is propaganda.
Because white people are brainwashed into thinking the police keep them safe, and they are working with ice.
The Democrats support the police and so do the media and the Republicans. It’s called copaganda.
people will literally say anything on the internet lol. the illiteracy crisis is real
Marx never travelled to Russia, he never even wrote of Russia as a potential centre of revolution. this is just fanfic
"To put it bluntly, an X post today receives less than 3% of the views a single tweet delivered seven years ago."
If you think it is necessary to be on Twitter to communicate your fact-based worldview, the reality is that worldview is being smothered.
"Why are the people we had expelled, deported, and arrested not protesting on campuses?" - they asked, sincerely and stupidly.
We're not doing this again. You tried it before. The college kids were brutalized & their organizing was forbidden by their administrations. They didn't have a personal grudge against Biden they don't have against Trump, they were mad he was funding genocide. They are still fighting & caring.
Catering to readers who want to read fantasy but would never admit to reading fantasy unless it's "literary fantasy"
hillary clinton back in 2008 during her Presidential run - "I want the Iranians to know that if I'm the president, we will attack Iran."
American blue maga genocidal democrats & liberals: "How on earth did she lose? She lost because they don't want a strong white feminist in power. Same as kamala."
As the weather is getting nice, my brain briefly has the thought “I should lose this little bit of beer belly I have going on.” That lasts for about two seconds as my brain then goes “Yeah, a beer sounds real good right about now.”
