Yep! Fascists can get fucked, LMAO! 🖕😁🖕

You say that as if we didn’t already do it once before, when we demolished perfectly-good walkable downtowns to pave over them for car parking.

In the last decade, I’ve had that sort of issue affect me twice:

1. I bought an AMD Vega 56 on launch day, and I had to run it with the proprietary driver for a while.
2. I recently upgraded my three monitors, and was having trouble getting them all to do the 1440p/100Hz they were rated for. After a bunch of fiddling with xrandr etc. and trying to add modelines and whatnot, it turned out the real problem was that I needed to upgrade from HDMI cables to DisplayPort ones.

Anyway, I guess the gist is that I wouldn’t have expected Windows to do any better in either case.

Now it’s not just vaccines but fluoride too?

No, not “now.” Fluoridation conspiracy theories are older than vaccine ones. That debunked study about vaccines and autism was from 1998, but idiots have been bitching about fluoridation ever since they started doing it, back in the '40s.

Eh, they can launch from Vandenburg if it’s that important. (Or, ya know, Guiana or Baikonur or whatever.)

In a properly dense, walkable city, there is literally not enough space for everybody to have a parking space, let alone a garage. If you try, e.g. by legislating minimum parking requirements, all you end up doing is ruining the city.

My favorite one that was until I watched Hamilton, I believed that the French betrayed us during the Revolutionary War and fought for England. I distinctly remember being taught that Lafayette sank American ships and allowed the British to advance. It’s fucking wild.

What? Even in terms of bullshit falsehoods that get taught in schools, that’s a new one on me. Are you sure you didn’t just… learn it wrong or something?

I mean, Ben Franklin going to France to get support for the revolution was a whole thing, ya know?

I would be interested to find out if your childhood friends remember it the same way or not.

You have to reject smart TVs at the time of purchase, or manufacturers think this shit is okay and will keep escalating until even an Nvidia Shield won’t save you.

And then buy a non-smart TV instead. At least one company, Sceptre, still makes them. (I don’t want to make it seem like I’m shilling for a particular brand, but I genuinely don’t know of any other options, aside from commercial signage displays.)

They still scared a bunch of people

Can confirm. I should have been involved with Stop Cop City protests – I cared about the site before the police bullshit was even proposed – but I have a family to worry about and the fascist AG has successfully chilled my freedom of speech.

Don’t get me wrong: for all I know, maybe a ban is justified. I just didn’t think those particular comments previously cited were enough to do it, and I’m glad you investigated further.

So the next rebellion will be absolutely without resistance, but will be backed by every branch of government. Most likely even the media won’t dare to call it out for what it is either.

Why are you writing in future tense? That’s what’s happening now.

You say that as if legal vs. illegal matters at this point.

What do you mean, “can’t be filibustered?” You fucking shout to drown out the person trying to conduct the vote, and you don’t stop until you and every other non-fascist have been forcibly removed.

To be fair, it was apparently posted in r/anarchocommunism, so I’d just chalk it up to knowing your audience. At least it was just .ml, and not grad or hexbear!

For all I know that user may indeed be sus, but not because of those comments, which don’t say what you claim they say:

1. The first comment wasn’t “talking up the Greens;” it was accusing the Democratic Party of disregarding leftists. It did not say that people should not vote for Harris; it only explained why they might make that choice. Furthermore, it cast that schism between leftists and Democrats as a bad thing that would lead to disaster, which is the opposite of advocating for it. Especially in retrospect, his criticism of the Democrats was correct, and so was his prediction that Harris would move further right and then lose.

2. The second comment did not say that Trump’s environmental policies were better than Biden’s; it said that the pandemic was a good example of degrowth. At most it was a fatalistic “the outcomes under Trump will be better for the climate because he’ll fuck everything up so bad that the whole economy will grind to a halt” sort of argument.

3. In the third comment, he was arguing against protest-voting for third-party candidates under our current first-past-the-post voting system.

Frankly, I think @federalreverse@feddit.org acted hastily and should double-check your “research.”

I can’t read the article because paywall, but I assume access was blocked by some sort of court injunction. So what’ll really happen is that that stuff is how actual-patriot treasury employees will occupy their time until the ruling gets appealed to some MAGA judge and Musk waltzes right back in again.
