  • Sure, but imo if that is the starting demand then it will likely be compromised down to nothing. Maybe if the starting point is "full nationalization with no compensation to shareholders / owners" then the capitalists could be forced to hand over a part.

    But in the US I don't see how this could ever happen with publicly-traded companies short of a revolution - there's too much mercenary solidarity from the working class and the petitite bourgeoisie to the capitalists, with anyone with a pension, any cash savings, or some entire sectors bribed out of their own class interest with crumbs from the stock market.

  • DDOSing a blog that was doing free work for Big Copyright and Big Paywall by trying to doxx the archive.is operator.

  • My point is that if you chose Goebbels-speak like that it gets in the way of what you're saying because it raises questions about how you feel about non-zionist Jews

  • Calling a group that's primarily Jews "filthy dirty animals" is not doing the antizionist cause any favours

  • The funniest part to me is that people went to reply, had the chance to read what they were about to say in your comment (maybe some of them even did read it wow) and then ended up saying one of these things anyway. Incredible, no notes

  • No? The NHS literally recommends vaping as a safer alternative.

  • "defense capabilities" what in the world? The best defense is a good offense I guess...

  • "13 US service members"

    What, because Don posthumously fired all the others?

  • the part of the "conspiracy theory" about CIA funding is completely true: signal proudly say they get funding from the OTF, which at the time signal started was a subsidiary of Radio Free Asia, which started out as an open CIA project (before being relaunched as clearly still a CIA project but without the official acknowledgement).

    I'm 50:50 on whether signal is a literal honeypot, but even if not it seems pretty likely that the US government wouldn't have funded an app that could be used by people breaking its laws - let alone people actively organizing against it (foreign spies, domestic revolutionaries and insurrectionists) unless they were getting something pretty big in return.

  • Stallman could take 5 minutes to walk back his disgusting positions on sexual assault and pedophilia, every day he makes a conscious choice not to. Why do you support that decision?

  • Push the overton window to the left by dismantling a century of highly-effective anti-left propaganda. Educate yourself, then other people, on:

    1. what "socialism", "communism", and "capitalism" truly mean
    2. how many labor rights were won by unions (basically of them) vs kindly handed out by cApTaInS oF iNdUsTrY (basically none of them)
    3. the US founders' views on democracy, slavery, and Native Americans

    developing basic literacy, media literacy, and critical thinking is also not a bad idea (I don't mean this as a personal insult; we're talking about a country where over half the adults are functionally illiterate, 20-30% of voters supported bombing a fictional country, and 42% of voters think the Russian government is communist)

    there are many many practical steps to take as well, but it's hard for me to see any of these leading to lasting change without fixing the (deliberately constructed) mis- and under-education in the USA.

  • .local is usually avahi / bonjour - could be some machines are running it, others aren't

  • EXCUSE YOU it's fish oil not snake oil

  • Hetzner requires ID these days, not sure if it's for all new accounts or based on some sketchy algorithm but it's happened to more than one person I know.

  • the top of your wrist or the bottom of your wrist 😉

  • Comments are very normal as usual:

    I posted a cool clip from the UFC and got banned even though the content had a warning. It wasnt even that violent just a clean headkick ko.

    If I started an instance it would get defederated because people would take one look and assume its toxic. But its not, Im not, I've spend years in the leftie techie activist spaces and cause no issues.

  • Does archive warrior have a way of downloading pages as you visit them in a browser? I read the link but I only saw references to following Archive Team's tasks.
