That’s my point.

I use dawn foaming dish soap dispensers, with non-dawn soap. Suds on demand.

I feel even better replacing a new or old sponge with a brush that will never get that awful sponge smell

Footage without sound from an organization nobody knows.

There was a programmer at my job, he put out the vibe of being a gung-ho guy and got promoted to team lead. The moment he had a scrap of power he started publicly berating the other devs, randomly, over nothing, leaving me wondering who he’d snap on on a given day. One day I got the message to shut off his access to the build server, which meant he was fired. It took way too long but it was delicious when it happened and my work satisfaction skyrocketed. An asshole can change a whole job.

Communists describing liberals.

To bring this back around to the NSA, they’re prevented by law to do data collection on American citizens who fall outside the exceptions like this FISA bill. The one loophole is that private companies have much more leeway in whose private information they can collect, and NSA can use American tax dollars to buy your personal information that’s illegal for them to collect themselves. Now NSA is a military intelligence organization and they’re not supposed to toss their intercepts over to US law enforcement like the FBI, but they do.

The usual. Journalists, democracy, threats to fascism and corporate profits at home and abroad.

Thanks, Lemmy.ml mods.

Capitalism will bring out the worst in AI, to prevent it we’d need to overthrow capitalism.

Anyway, the Tienanmen Square protests happened before the white terror ended.

I don’t know who you’re talking about being anti-fascist. What if the enemy of my enemy is my enemy? What if you had to vote between two right-wingers? That’s the choice we’re talking about.

We don’t have fair elections now.

You’re presenting a false dichotomy. I’m saying voting between capitalist candidates in bourgeois elections is a nearly politically inert action. It could be worse than meaningless, in giving well-meaning people a feeling that they’ve contributed to positive change when they haven’t. Joining socialist organizations, organizing your workplace, socialist activism, those are actions that contribute directly to solving the biggest problem today. Why would a communist vote for an explicitly anti-communist politician? If you had to pick between a Republican and a fascist, which would you vote for?

These are bourgeois elections in the country that’s the hub of global capitalist imperialism. The Democratic party isn’t even obliged to go with the will of the people, and the popular vote doesn’t even decide the president.

They’re not powerlesss, they just lack motivation to not back the capitalist status quo.
