So I never planned on using the cli, but the thing is, when you're following a tutorial — say you're installing/configuring something new — it is so much easier to copy/paste commands than it is to read instructions and then translate them to your own particular GUI environment. Once you've done that a few times, you're already one of us

Hang on, are Ukrainians European or not? Because I'm losing track over here

With respect, if you describe yourself as liberal, vote for an economically liberal party, and refuse even to accept economic policy as part of the question, I think the "authoritarian leftists" have your number tbh

Yeah agreed, Haiti really opens your eyes to how race and class intersect imo — and the potted history at the end to bring us up to the present is absolutely heartbreaking.

I'm sorry but this is just flat out wrong in the way that only an American can be wrong

There's a difference between ideology and affect. I'm sure plenty of Nazis are "nice"

Liberals are, to quote Phil Ochs: "ten degrees to the left of center in the good times, ten degrees to the right of center when it affects them personally"

Look rather than dunk on you, I'm going to recommend Mike Duncan's Revolutions podcast, because it gives a fair overview of what the liberal revolutions were about, why socialism grew out of that moment, and how there came to be this irreconciliable beef between liberalism and socialism. The whole thing is great, but 1848 is the real crisis point if all you care about is the schism.

Do you know what the word 'liberal' actually means

Ok I'm not sure why but I'm pml over here, so well done for that

I'm blaming Germany, actually. Keep up.

It's because the USSR used to outsource a lot of their dirtiest industry to Poland, and now the EU do it

I would honestly recommend moving somewhere that federates with both lib and tankie servers because the tone/level of debate otherwise is pretty grim imho

Or, more realistically:

• 3 vote to drive off the cliff
• 2 vote for ice-cream
• 4 vote to drive off the cliff at a slightly reduced speed, having been assured that they might get to look at a picture of some ice-cream, but only after democracy has been saved

And letting the greater evil in at the local level???!!!!1?!! Just admit you love Putin smdh smhmh

What kind of sole-less monster would do this

Integrated AC ftw bebeh

Lmao at all the nerds in here like "excuse me sir, this meme is computalogically incorrect"

I mean, it's pretty self-explanatory, right?

But, just in case: it's basically impossible to save for a deposit when your income is getting gobbled up by rent. If you are lucky enough that a family member can help you out with the deposit, then not only do your monthly outgoings go down (mortgage payments + taxes, maintenance costs etc are always going to be less than rent in an equivalent abode), but most of that money is going directly into your property i.e. it's still yours.

So, obviously, anyone would choose owning over renting, apart from in some very specific circumstances. It's not that people are too stupid to come up with the genius idea of buying a house. You're flushing money down the toilet every time you pay a rent cheque, and everyone knows this. But that constant haemorrhaging of money is what makes renting a trap.

P.S. I can be more condescending than this if you still aren't getting it

Have you ever heard of a little thing called 'the rent trap'
