  • ... And I doubt all the death figures going around... I suspect it hit a megadeath in the first months after the triggering false flag attack they used to excuse this hot genocide.

    But the media all so bought up, managed opposition and all, we don't tend to hear much about that.

    To echo a sentiment I've heard Max Igan say many times... If we don't remedy this situation, the way of Palestine will be the way of the world. Like we're not really confronting the horror of the situation... of how far we are into "First they came for the...".

    ... And then the deeper con, some want us to conflate and hate, like this is all a big problem-reaction-solution ploy to get us okay with the "Christian Nationalists" and other "Fundamentalist" (~ Nothing Christian, Nationalist, nor fundamental to christianity, about what they do), wanting to drop the big one on them, once they're all consolidated, and offered "Jesus or die". ... Because, y'know, that's what Jesus would do. ... Too much crazy going around.

    Oh to heal the minds... ... ... maybe if we restore cannabis... (aka Kaneh Bosm, the main ingredient in the holy anointing oil that makes one be as christ). For the healing of the nations. Food, Fuel, Fiber, Medicine. Best idea I've seen. But then how to get that past the crooks who've hijacked control and are actively enshitifying.... Ample room for more good ideas yet.

  • My mom ordered me a new pair of noise cancelling headphones after my old ones stopped working, and i like these better than my old ones

    Jump

  • Thanks. Handy to know.

    I'm still on my first pair of noise cancelling headphones. The "cheap"[est] Bose ones (^around that same price). They do a fair job of noise cancelling [~ though not great enough to immunise me from SensoryProcessingDisorder triggers]. But I have nothing else to compare to. Have been considering making a big investment for their more expensive ones that I've seen get great reviews.

  • am i racist? anglophobic?

    Jump

  • I was told recently that there's no such thing as racism against white people, and that, contrary to the definition of the word, racism really means something that involves an imbalance of power, and it's not racism if using the broadest brush to blame anyone of similar skin colour as the oppressor's skin colour, and that this skin colour is only white. :3

    So by this newspeak, so long as those English accents are uttered from people with light skin tones, it can't be racist. So, shout and jeer your crude cliche impressions against the item of the hour of hate all you want. It's doubleplus. ;D

    Mad world.

  • As was introduced to me, breaches of Duty of Care Law fall under 3 categories.

    • Incompetence (not criminal).
    • Negligence (can be criminal).
    • Intent (always criminal).

    So you can see why they try so hard to appear incompetent.

    Lets them get away with murder.

  • The same people who claimed "Death to Israel" wasn't a call for genocide last week, are now calling for genocide against Israel openly.

    Jump

  • All of them?

    Pretty sure 99% of those I've heard say "Death to Israel", mean the end of the political entity, not the people.

  • What's with users of fediverse using 'Go back to reddit' as a retort to other users?

  • Edit 1: I am NOT defending conservative views, I think that they should not be given a platform in the fediverse.

    So you'd rather eliminate their voice to conserve the status quo here?

    Are you sure you're NOT doing that?

  • Little quick question: what do you think of advertising from a Marxist perspective? (crosspost from !nostupidquestions@lemmy.world and !actualsocialism101@lemmy.dbzer0.com)

    Jump

  • I can't speak from a Marxist perspective (having a considerably more anarcho-socialist perspective), but, for a little relevant anecdote...

    I used to work in advertising. When I was animating my first TV advert, for the whole 3 months it took, each day I would play a Bill Hicks VHS in the background, over and over, wearing it out to fuzzy snow. Meaning about 12 times a day, I would get a dose of https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=tHEOGrkhDp0 ... And so Bill Hicks saved me by telling me to kill myself. Never done advertising since.

  • Root Beer... It's got to be DS9.

    Since you mentioned Academy, a red squad triple episode could be good: "Homefront", "Paradise Lost" (s4e11&12) & "Valliant" (s6e22).

    Perhaps the best root beer moment in all of DS9 is in "The Way of the Warrior" (Season 4, Episode (1&) 2). [And watch the next episode after that for one of the best written and most poignant and unique DS9 episodes: The Visitor (s4e3)].

    Also a fun mention when Alexander's trying to be a real Klingon. "Sons and Daughters" (Season 6, Episode 3).

    : ::: spoiler Spoiler about what root beer tastes like Root Beer's basically Cola. Not much different. Barely different enough to warrant a different name. Kinda like Dr Pepper.

    Just amusing irony worth pointing out.

    Pedantically, I should have used "wont be able" to future-tense it.

if test "$input" = "yes" -o "$input" = "Yes" ; echo "Proceeding..."
else ; echo "You are not old enough.  Exiting." ; exit 1 ; end

    Jump

  • I'm glad you're facing the horror, sober to our situation, but

    We have to scare them into compliance

    No.

    Opposaming, reaffirming their poison practice, becoming them, is not a wise way.

    Better bringing them to their better senses [capable of creative, critical, considerate cognition (the fore-brain stuff)], than to keep them locked in their limbic social-dominance mode.

    Also, the situation's even worse than you depict. The Georgia Guidestones said no more than 500,000,000 people on earth... and they do not mean to send 95% of us into space... they plan to give themselves far greater headroom (... I have heard some even plan to reduce the human population down all the way to 30,000), by committing anthrocide. ... And for their fraudulent spurious circular reasoning too. No cull necessary. Release the emancipatory technologies and we can increase the carrying capacity of Earth to over 300,000,000,000,000 (yes, 300 trillion). Not saying we should. Just saying, with proper resource management, we have so much headroom. And much overlap in technologies that allow construction of vast forest arcologyscapes as also avail all space to us.

    As I'm typing this, I'm listening to a podcast that's touching on the Glyphosate issue, reminding me of the broader overarching "Codex Alimentarius" issue... the plan to own all life on earth, by a protection racket offer we cannot refuse. Reminding me it's not just the barrel of anthrocide we're staring down, but of ecocide and omnicide too.

    Scary stuff. I can see how that may drive some to limbic reflex, to what they're familiar with from experience, to reach for the only tool in the toolbox, the terrorism hammer, "scare them into compliance". But that leaves us recreating the problem a new, having not learned our way out of that opposaming feedback loop trap. There are other ways. "Educate yourself so you may educate others" and "We are psychenauts and we are not afraid" spring to mind. :)
