No, it hasn’t. The US is waging a proxy war that requires the EU to bear the consequences. They even destroyed one of your pipelines, and caused one of the worst environmental disasters in history right off the coast, and Europe didn’t make a peep about it.

Then explain the shock coming from Europe.

Liberals are just as much reactionaries as conservatives. They simply disagree on which status quo they’d like to return to and who is acceptable to exploit.

There was never a point in US history that it was not a rogue state. If you believe there’s a period it wasn’t, you simply do not know enough history about the time period you’re referring to.

Or more likely, you believe white lives to be more valuable, and you take offense now that the US is directing their usual behavior towards white Europeans.

If they haven’t accepted it yet, I’m not sure they want to. The ones holding the lines seem to be just reactionaries pining for a return to the neoliberal status quo.

Yep. Like holding a jump rope between two people, and one of them sends a wave through it to the other. The force still has to travel through the material.

Covid causes brain damage and increased aggression.

Exactly. Most people have skill issues with this. Stop gatekeeping.

So now we can’t even speak of Linux’ poor usability?! Hah. Fat chance.

There it is. The self-defeating attitude that got us here, and keeps us here.

And this thinking is exactly why it will always be niche. A complete inability & unwillingness to move beyond that.

Might as well put a damn ham radio in it. The Linux crowd will love it, and everyone else won’t know what the hell to do with it. Seems what they’re going for.

I can absolutely think of use cases for it. Would 100% support an expansion port for it.

But as a default feature on a mobile device? Moronic design choice. But again, just a classic out-of-touch decision from Linux developers. Very on-brand.

Why the fuck would a handheld need an ethernet port?

The pro-linux developers just can’t stop designing things to their own specific needs and skillsets. No concept of designing & marketing for a wide audience.

It already exists. We need to be pouring subsidies into it. I would absolutely switch, if it was widely available.

Not only is it better for the environment, but it’s also not loaded with antibiotics or been exposed to fecal matter at the farm.

I think you’re missing the point. They’re not looking for a badass. They’re looking for someone broken that they can attempt to fix.

Marxist theorists have known for many decades that the rise of fascism was coming. They called every step of this so accurately, you’d think they had a copy of Biff’s sports almanac.

But the same theorists also predicted the eventual fall of capitalists/fascists, and that socialism/communism would follow. I just hope we get to that point before climate collapse. But I’m doing what I can as an individual, and trusting the process.

It’s more difficult to run government psyops on mastodon.
