  • Replacement parts are a bitch though. At least when it comes to batteries. The only battery I’ve seen with any positive reviews are Green Cell which is European, so shipping is absurd, and Duracell which no longer produces thinkpad batteries.

  • Thinkpads cost a couple hundred dollars and works fine. If you don’t do anything intensive, there’s no reason to buy a near $1000 laptop. I also dropped mine from like 3-5 feet and the only damage was a slight paint chip on the battery. My 2012 MacBook would’ve been done for.

  • The vast majority of the world doesn't care about Ukraine in any way beyond "war is bad," and indeed a large chunk of the global south has expressed that the war is entirely the West's fault for provoking Russia constantly since the collapse of the USSR. The only people suffering from the war are in Ukraine, Russia, or any of a number of European nations that were strong-armed into shutting off their access to Russian fossil fuels

    Well, no. Those aren’t the only people suffering. Millions of people are suffering due to the grain deal falling apart. Both the US and Russia urged Africans to be patient as food from Ukraine and Russia will continue to be exported to them. Russia and Ukraine partially went through with this until recently. The blame aside, at least Russia and Ukraine provided something to Africans. I don’t believe the US has done anything substantial which shouldn’t be surprising. Africans still remember the US promising vaccines before giving them Jack shit, which is why they’re willing to talk with Russia and China more than they are with the US or Europe. They may not care about Ukraine’s conflict, but they care about the food being impacted by said conflict. Otherwise they wouldn’t keep urging Russia and Ukraine to broker a new deal since the war started.

  • I didn’t know Assad consented to Americans, Israelis, and Turks dropping bombs in Syria. I also didn’t know Cuba allowed the US to occupy its country to torture Muslims. Oh right, I forgot the nonexistent colonial government signed a contract with the US, the same occupational contract that most of the world agrees is inhumane, except the US and a few of its allies, including Ukraine.

    • Bases in South America: control the “backyard” of America. Ensure that cartels discipline domestic labor and provide cheap labor and drugs without disrupting your own country too much
    • Bases in Europe: leading your white coalition, monitoring Russia, scaring the “civilized continent” into submission with “uncivilized” migrants and ideologies, deindustrialization
    • Bases in Africa: extremely important minerals and raw material for your empire, getting closer to China, enforce extreme poverty, combating Russian and Chinese influence
    • Bases in ME: control oil vassals to placate voters at home, funding and training of terrorists with oligarch support and domestic disdain - good for covert ops and election fear mongering, borders China, enforce extreme poverty
    • Bases in Asia: surround China, provoke China, control South Korea and Japan
    • Bases in Australia: close to China, launching zone
  • Reeducation is for peace time, after winning and substantially changing the system. Sure, right now you may be able to change individual minds. I’m sure many here started off as some reactionary, I know I certainly did. But the problem is that the institutions with power and influence and the condition that created Nazis are still present and PROMOTED by society.

    It’s the equivalent of Planet Fitness. Will some members become very fit and very healthy? Absolutely, with the right program and discipline, they can achieve that anywhere. But when you discourage advanced training, fill the gym with ineffective machines made by conmen, and feed everyone pizza, the majority will continue to stay unfit and unhealthy.

  • All types of government will have some form of corruption, but I’m not sure how a “free market” ran by people who follow the philosophy that companies only have the responsibility to answer to shareholders will generate wealth for “many.” Unless you’re advocating for trickle down pissonomics?

  • After taking some serious time to think, I agree with you. It’s just absurd that anyone can advocate for killing Nazis. The Soviet orcs should have stormed Auschwitz and hugged the guards and scientists and said, “I forgive you, comrade.” The monsters even made poor Adolf commit suicide instead of advocating for self care.

  • Rural communities have been using Huawei equipment for internet because it’s cheap and fast. The federal government became upset and demanded they rip everything and replace it with American parts. I think it costs like $12 billion, but the US didn’t even give the communities 50% of the required amount to switch over
