Come on. Please happen. This could be the funniest thing all term.

What is this, an Amazon warehouse?

OH SAY, CAN YOU SEE

THERE’S A STRONG BIG-ASS TREE

anyway kids want to learn how levers work?

I honestly don’t personally know any real-life person who acts like that - they’re either just not scared of cool infrastructure, or they’re the occasional ‘patriot’ freak who’s nationalist/racist enough to consider Japan a threat too.

Leave the straw-man circlejerking to the rightoids, comrade.

Stopped reading at “Do you want to work”

(well, at least not for money)

Excessive for my threat model, one more thing which could break something (even if by no fault of its own).

I like it as a concept, but many of my devices don’t use it.

Linking to a reply I posted in this thread because it talks about a relevant aspect, which other (correct) comments haven’t named: hypodescent.

Blackness/Whiteness is an interesting concept - it’s remarkably fluid, especially with changes in time and place. Race isn’t the same as ethnicity or genetics, or a direct result of it, although racists often try to claim it is - a stark example of this in Western societies like the US and Australia would be how they categorize Italian and Greek peoples, Slavic peoples, or ethnically-Jewish peoples - the idea of whether or not each of these is White has largely shifted over time, often as a group stops being the current biggest immigration demographic. The USA even had a concept of “Black Irish”, which originally meant a post-Famine Irish refugee. Human races are ultimately just social classes, not a biological concept.

Another aspect, related to this thread, is hypodescent. In some societies (it’s not a universal thing!), if a child has a Black parent and a White parent, is the child Black or White, or another label entirely? As mentioned in that article, some US states used to legally define someone as Black even if only 1 of their 16 great-great-grandparents were Black.

Tempted to try the Traffic Light Reactuon, but I don’t know how safe it is to store something that alkaline in a regular glass bottle long-term

The proper stuff is expensive (~$1USD/ml), NileRed’s recipe is 2chem4me, but the cheaper ferrous suspension methods might be workable…

Anything in the ballpark of “working class ownership of the means of production”.

Any more examples of socialist democracies?

Since you mentioned India, Kerala is does not currently have a socialist mode of production (that’s a specific way of saying, their economy isn’t socialism) but they have been led by socialist parties (parties which are trying to implement a socialist mode of production), and it shows.

Socialism is defined by “the ownership of the means of production by the working class, in a transition to communism”.

This is a definition specific to certain communist ideologies. Valid, but not general.

Is there a way I can upload the entire steak scene in The Matrix in this reply?

Despite my disagreements with local anarchists, they are objectively helping people and are lightyears above the Online Left. I will take comrades of almost (almost!) all tendencies over the Online Left.

Why not Debian directly instead of MX?

Debian requires more config out-of-the-box to get a nice desktop/laptop experience. This is ready to go.
