Y’know the French did this “publicly execute the rich” thing before. Worked out pretty great for them… maybe we should learn a thing or two.

They’re comment is wrong. But non-marxian communism exists. For example council communism.

But a Tankie is basically a Leninist/Stalinist/Maoist communist who dick rides authoritarianism.

The only books I have physical copies of are for ttrpgs. And even then I have a digital copy.

Most Blu-ray’s now come with digital files. You can upload these to a server like Plex (this requires you to setup a Plex server which I don’t expect the average consumer to be capable of, but uploading it to a MacBook or whatever is basically enough) to digitise your collection. Now you still own the physical media, and have a digital version of it as well.

And this is completely legal.

You could also skip the buying the physical Blu-ray part. But that is less than legal (but you’re unlikely to get caught… just saying, yar har)

“Carnism” that’s the difference between vegans and non-vegans.

Only vegans view their diet as a lifestyle and shit on everyone else who isn’t vegan. We’re not “carnists” we don’t give a fuck really except that we hate vegans. Why? Because you lot are the pushiest, most openly judgemental, arrogant pieces of shit to walk the earth.

You think the US cares about that? Europeans still have to defacto prove they aren’t Americans or they get taxed American taxes by their European banks.

The US does not and has not ever cared about international borders unless they benefit the US.

Yes you do. S20 Ultra, No Premium, I can PiP.

This is because capitalism requires infinite growth… which is literally fucking impossible so everything either grows infinitely or dies… or option three: gets so fucking big it abuses governance to prevent itself from dying while murdering it’s competition.

Also unfortunately: their video player fucking sucks.

If they can barely afford the insurance and hit you their insurance isn’t paying.

I’ve been hit by red light runners thrice and while biking in a parking lot (ironically got more injured here) and only two times the drivers didn’t have insurance… not a single one paid out.

Insurance is a scam and defending it is akin to defending a Ponzi scheme imo.

I have gotten into an accident with an uninsured driver. Twice. Both their fault (running reds out near Mulholland).

I think there should be no requirement or a govt funded baseline

This. I was too young for Obamacare to be something I knew a single thing about but as a car owner and leftist auto insurance has always rubbed me wrong.

It’s just another means to keep people from being hireable by denying them jobs due to shitty public transit and the inability to legally drive their cars.

This is a much better write up than I expected from this comment section… you deserve at least hotdog for this effort.

Nope. Frankly a karma system would be such a terrible idea for Lemmy. We just need more mod tools, which is a downside of Lemmy being a new platform that grew really quickly.

Did I say anything about liking their stances? No. They’re a private company though. They can do as they fucking please.

In fact the only way to force them to not censor anyone is to eliminate their (the owners) first amendment rights. That’s why private companies are not beholden to it. Unfortunately this concept is foreign to right wing nuts.

“Censorship” lol, cry harder.
Her platform, her rules. Don’t like it? Leave. This ain’t a government, you have no free speech rights here or anywhere else on the internet, don’t like how a site operates/what a site allows? Then leave.

Seeing as our (Cali) CCPA is about as strict (if not moreso) than the GDPR it’s not a longshot that they might.

Which this isn’t totally solving. Don’t get me wrong this is a good thing. But the real issue with planned obsolescence is OS support.

It’s Quora.
