Haha, I had forgotten about Time Cube 😂 That link didn’t work for me, this right? Can’t lie, would’ve loved to see it like that lol

I suppose the question is then, how should this site have been designed iyo?

Is it time to move to Northern Canada? Or Southern Argentina?

I get what u mean, but at the same time, there’s plenty of “friendly,” normal looking, and now probably AI generated, scam sites too. The colors are bold, but it’s a simple, informative design. And if we, the ones who read and try to be vigilant of bad actors, are the only ones it can reach, so be it ig.

So do microplastics harm our bodies? I can’t think it’ll help, just wanna know the severity to be worried lol

Uggghhhhh, thanks for the info though

Shouldn’t be surprised, to be a CEO you gotta have a screw loose for the job

Proton has been alright for me so far. However, at this rate, I’m just waiting for something similar to happen with them too. Crossing my fingers.

Food I understand, it can be genuinely difficult without spending significantly more, Costco isn’t the worst choice. But… correct me if wrong, but I don’t think that’s where they make up their margin. Everything they sell is in bulk, sure it’s “economical” if everyone really “needs” to buy so much. They, like all major sellers of consumer commodities, thrive on consumerism.

My friend, lemme tell u something about this “news.”

Respect the honesty lol

Yup. Almost like corporate leaders were never guardians of democracy.

PS, seems like Western “independent” advocacy groups has little more than zero effect on you. No one is immune. Thinking so is childish. Goodbye.

OP account is sus. Opened account 3 months ago to immediately cry wolf on GrapheneOS. Now a scam site (don’t bother opening. Probably safer not to.) Calling honeypot.

oh no, not lennybird’s respect :((( please, repost everywhere.

and since when is criticizing the states of China or Russia, eastern propaganda?

I’m arguing for the least worst? I’m sorry, who said that they would “would rather live here than fucking Iran, North Korea, China, or Russia”? When did I say that one is a “better” place to live? I am not interested in such shallow analysis. No one “chooses” to live in either USA or Iran. Hypothetically choosing between imperialist blocs does not help anyone but the ruling class. It is always in my, and the working class’s imo, to oppose especially your own nation’s class oppressor first and foremost. And as the hegemonic state, the US is quite the oppressor to much of the world. This ofc does not excuse other imperialist actions by other states, but am merely stating where my own practical responsibility lies. You seem to think being critical of the US, to the appropriate degree, the highest degree, is somehow an allowance for other states to commit crimes. The question is immaterial; rights under US capital are contingent and conditional, just as they are under Chinese state-capitalism. Domestic minority rights that we do have are structurally dependent on the exploitation of global south. How can we enjoy a “safe” liberal democracy at home while our tax dollars bomb hospitals, subvert elections, install dictators? You do know how Iran got to become the theocracy it is today, right?

You must analyze materially, not morally. Why is the US defending Ukraine? To “defend democracy”? No, to weaken a rival imperial power and secure energy corridors. Why is China trading with Iran? To secure oil for Chinese industry. The conflicts on the global stage run on capitalist, inter-imperialist incentives. Ranking genocides to show how the US is actually not that much worse, is immaterial.

The “genocides” you list, while I will not deny outright and are certainly concerning, have many red flags and leave questions unanswered, mainly due to how vague and biased much of the research is (Adrian Zenz is quite the character). But whether US interests are exaggerating these reports or not, there is plenty to criticize China for, using a state-capitalist structure to suppress labor and rely on growth and extraction, as well as their expansionist, bourgeois nationalism in Taiwan. Same goes for every capitalist state, like Russia and the incentives of their oligarchic class to defend against NATO encirclement and secure Black Sea trade routes. But these critiques are independent from US propaganda, and does not make Russian invasion or Chinese oppression more commendable. And again, much of these criticisms of other states can be similarly made right back at the US, and arguably amplified, given the global scale of US military and financial hegemony.

Your immediate whataboutism pivot to other “genocides” makes me wonder, how recent did you acknowledge the Palestinian genocide?

Out of curiosity, what’s ur take on the US and Israel? Is the US funding and aiding a genocide?

Sure, if the USA as the global terrorizer police and hegemon wasn’t a giant elephant in the room. That is the point u are choosing to ignore.

Take ur time, share with the class when ur ready

I’ve been in a carbonated bath before, although I think it was a light carbonation. Mostly the same, but if sat still for a while, your body turns white from the thin layer of little bubbles stuck to your skin. Pretty fun wiping it off and seeing a cloud of bubbles float up.
