Stay alert.
  • yeah, this is coolaide man apologist propaganda. weak as shit propaganda too. it's his brother that has the addiction and runs around busting down walls for it. mr hotharm here is just trying to clean up after his sloppy ass sibling.

    like, i get it. we all want to believe in nomative determinism, but addiction can effect anyone. don't let big sugar water normalize busting down walls and assaulting children's parties for a hit.

  • Should the Harris campaign co-opt this t-shirt?
  • sadly the "info in 3 seconds" problem is only getting worse as more and more people move on from tv news to the only thing that's worse, getting their news from short form video on platforms like Facebook and tiktok.

  • Lemmings of Lemmy who came over from Reddit what do you miss about Reddit and what do you not miss?
  • yeah, this site just isn't active enough for many of the communities that i miss. like sure, there's an anime community that will have some discussion on the like... top 5 shows of the season. but where else can I go to talk any like... Kingdom or Dead dead demons or any of the shows that i love but aren't super main stream. and even on the big shows, there's going to be like at most 10 top level comments and only two with any meaningful replies.

  • A cool guide to Early warning signs of facism
  • so are saying that there is no situation in with it is beneficial to be able to group these dangerous warmongering ideologies under a blanket term like right now when so many with "slight differences" that are gaining steam right now. it's not the slight differences we care about, is the shared hatred and warmongering and nationalism.

    or are you just trying to defend Italian fascism as not being problematic?

  • A cool guide to Early warning signs of facism
  • no, IDK why so many think the government controls corporations under fascism.

    under fascism, historically, business owners largely just became part of the ruling class and helped dictate policy in their favor. (sounds familiar doesn't it)

    it's less that the government took control of the business and more that the businesses were let into the government. not to be controlled, but to control and benefit. sure, you had to fall in line with the party, as all people did, but it was more of a power grab by the rich than a dictator controlling them. falling in line just meant going on stage to publicly declare support for the party and condemnation for their enemies. remember, fascism is all about showing off and being the big macho man. it's about looking the party more than feeling and being it.

    if the government took over businesses under fascism German and Italian companies would be very very different today. as it stands, they either benefitted or got burned down.

  • A cool guide to Early warning signs of facism
  • i believe you're thinking of authoritarian communism, like north Korea or the ussr.

    all examples of historic fascism had very strong corporations that were heavily subsidized by the government. like Nazi Germany and fascist Italy.

    now, we've never really seen a true fascists state outside of wartime, but that might be kind of the point of fascism. they must always be in wartime.

  • JD Vance's wife faces racist online backlash from far-right social media posts - ABC News
  • yeah, i think it's honestly lately because Trump likes modi.

    if this weren't far right dumbasses i might think they were referring to the hyper patriarchal society and 50 years behind gender views that are common in that country, but i don't think they actually know anything about India. if they did, they'd probably be all about the arranged marriages and legal martial rape.

  • No other way to put it
  • oh i don't think Amazon leaves anything out of their control anymore. if that label is for the most picked for a term the it's because they manipulated the search. but I'm thinking it's just a sticker that they put on things they want to sell and also manipulate the search results.

  • Definitely not my dark urge
  • man, I just wish there was s full embrace the absolute path. rise up to replace what's her face of bhaal, but otherwise just advance their plans to play out the way the wanted.

    i want to go full cult fanatic. the current evil runs are too similar to the good runs. maybe if the good run didn't more or less shoehorn you into "infiltrating" the tower. like if moonrise was always hostile to good players and you unlocked it as a town by being bad.

    as it stands now, you almost exclusively lose things or miss opportunities by being bad. there's very little extra story to uncover in a bag guy run. there's a few different endings, but those were added with like the last patch.

    the evil playthrough is one of this games weak points. divinity is much better at that.

  • Black man dies, crying for help, after hotel guards pin him down, video shows: Milwaukee police are investigating the killing of Dvontaye Mitchell, whose death has drawn comparisons to George Floyd’s
  • i wouldn't say a lot. you'd be amazed how massive the private security industry is. it's mostly shit jobs that pay pile 15/hr for you to watch cameras and occasionally scan little wall dots to prove you walked down a hall.

    my old roommate did this kind of security for a different building in Milwaukee. none of his coworkers were cops, nor were they trained in any meaningful way.

  • American White pelicans on a colorado lake (05-17-24)

    stopped by my favorite birding spot after work and had these fellas fly in over my head. guest appearance by a great blue heron.

    shot on sony a7siii with a tamron 150-500. all handheld and after the sun was behind the mountains, so you'll have to excuse some shakiness and focus issues.

    music: creep - original song by Radiohead - performed by scott bradlee's post modern jukebox.

    sometimes night feels more like a dream...

    I'm sick as hell right now and this pulled up right outside my front door last night. stepped out to take a picture because nothing felt real for a moment. then i started coughing and kind of regretted it. worth it?

    like I'm at the exit to silent Hill...

    took this riding into Milwaukee the other day when it was foggy as hell over like a third of the county...
