People that get to this stage aren't often thinking clearly. They are looking for place to release the anger and pain.

It's why Luigi was such a unique case of vigilante justice. He was actually thinking clearly, and agree with him or not, he hit a target that most of the country thought "well, yeah that was bound to happen eventually".

Allegedly obviously. Luigi allegedly did this. I still think they got the wrong guy.

Sincerely, what else could be meant by what they said?

When a child is murdered in Gaza those advocating for Palestinians point to it as a reason to end the bloodshed. Hundreds of children were murdered by Israel just this week. No one in the media has spoken there names or talked about their hopes and dreams.

When an Israeli diplomat is murdered those advocating for Israel use it as a reason why they need to continue to murder said children. The diplomat is treated like a human. Their names are known. The media tells us the sad story of their hopes and dreams that were stolen from them.

Palestinians are not treated as humans. Their deaths are statistics. Israeli deaths are treated as tragedies.

It's a reason why this genocide continues. You have to dehumanize a population to the masses. And Israeli has succeeded in dehumanizing Palestinians, at least to the Western world.

The deaths of their own diplomats are simply tools to continue to justify their genocide. They don't care about their diplomats anymore than they do their hostages in Gaza.

If we had one public social media platform that would be the best way. It would force people to filter and learn how to interact with technology. But in our world people are lazy and a platform that picks the best value of X automatically for the most people will win. Even if it's not actually how people want to see things.

My neighborhood i rent in is really expensive. I'm well off but not well off enough to ever be able to afford a house here. Especially not now with a one year old kid. My rent is $3500 but the cheapest house here would be at least $10000 (all expenses considered) a month on a 30 year mortgage.

Most of the people that live in the single family homes here are old with no kids. Most families with kids here rent.

Every so often I see one of the homes get all it's landscaping cleaned up, the house painted and sometimes an extension added onto it. Those are all the Airbnb's. Just a house that sits there empty for 3/4 weeks.

The other ones get torn down and turned into what I'd call a "box" house. Basically that ugly style of house that takes up the entire plot of land but still is only meant for one family. These are bought by the inherited wealth families that have a couple kids and want to get out of the main city but still don't want to live in the deep car dependent suburbs.

All of this because housing is used as an investment vehicle. From large corporations to individuals in retirement.

I really wish we could treat it for what it is. Shelter.

I mean American football is pretty much just a bunch of large muscular men grabbing each other.

There's the one guy always with his hands cupping the other guys balls right before each play starts. While everyone else just has to stand still with their butts sticking out.

I would say this is the least homoerotic thing I've seen in American football.

Nowhere. Because it's already allowed. Don't need to make something legal that's already legal. 14th amendment literally allows for slave labor in the case of "criminals". Why do you think they keep trying to label everyone a criminal or terrorist? We've been using slaves to fight fires for a long time.

When you do 100 horrible things every week a lot of it gets missed. They know most of their base won't find out about this until it hurts them personally. And also they don't care either.

Still better than OnTrac somehow.

The queer community is still being forgotten even today. And with attacks on LGBTQ rights on the rise there are still people largely trying to distance the Nazis for being anti LGBTQ. They do this because they know that people still think Nazis are bad (for now at least) so they literally rewrite history to whitewash Nazi crimes against LGBTQ groups. They don't want their Nazi ideas of today being correctly associated with the Nazis.

We sadly live in a world where one of the most popular political commentators online says stuff like "I'm 99% sure the Holocaust happened" and "Well, it's my understanding that they didn't burn the trans literature book because they were trans. It's because the books were written in Jewish".

This is all to disconnect LGBTQ hatred from its Nazi connections.

If you don't know the "political commentator" I'm talking about you're a healthy person without brain rot. So I'll keep it that way.

Interesting. Is this a fundamental limitation of C or is it just more preferable and easier to use FORTRAN when implementing it?

Meaning could the same performance be achieved in C but most optimized libraries are already written so why bother? Or basically C can't achieve the memory optimization at all?

I'm not a part of that chapter but I sent my initial request email and it took about 4-5 months to be contacted. Most chapters have been overwhelmed since the election.

If your chapter is active you're basically waiting for an email and they'll get you invited to the discord for new members. At least that's how my chapter did it. Small yearly membership fee.

I didn't join as a national member. Just a "local comrade". So just a member of my local chapter. No idea how national membership works.

It's most peoples understanding that being a member of any organization that has "socialist" in the name can make you a target for fascist. But I think it's also most peoples perspective that EVERYONE is a target for fascist eventually. There is no defense in just sitting by and hoping that you're the last to be targeted.

As a straight white male it's definitely a privileged position to not have to be as concerned yet.

The SRA itself is not at all political though and members are discouraged from doing any organizing that could be connected directly to the organization. It's basically meant to be a safe space for people to learn responsible gun ownership. Something that is usually dominated by the "maga hats".

Join the SRA! (Socialist Rifle Association). We are the wrong people! We either arm the vanguard (not actually a goal) or we get more common sense gun laws implemented. It's a win win.

In more serious terms, think of it as an organization where you can learn responsible gun ownership without being surrounded by maga hats. You don't need to consider yourself a socialist to join. Though there is a basic vetting process to keep the maga hats out.

Some lost JAV. Specifically some of Kaho Shibuyas. Haven't been able to complete that collection yet. VRs and some older videos that the publisher doesn't even exist anymore. I'd pay even. But until I visit an old DVD shop in Japan they are lost to the Internet.

It doesn't have to be profitable for the "city" that's socialized cost. It just needs to be profitable for capital.

They'll burn $10 of your money to make $1 in profit.

How does the world cup define losing money? Because the absolute devastation that the world cup leaves in it's wake to already poor and impoverished populations is definitely not being calculated. The human cost of labor exploitation alone is awful. But I guess that's what they mean by "profitable" anyway.

If you think electing an anti Zionist pope would change anything you have not been paying attention.

I would say politicians are using the rise in anti American sentiment to solidify their positions in more nationalist forms of government. I would warn my comrades in the west. This rise in nationalism can be dangerous. Even if it is directed at being against America (which is good) it can also be leveraged to build fascist policies in your own country. Be wary of your "liberal" politicians and parties. They likely do not have your best interest at heart. They know material conditions will decline with the fall of the American empire. They will do everything they can to keep their power. And they'll do it off the backs of your working class.

Do not substitute class solidarity for Nationalism. Tarrifs are a direct attack on the working class of the world. We pay those. No matter what country we reside in.

Well it's a fork. So it's technically got all of the darkest timeline up to the point they added the extreme stupidity patch.

There will be a merge PR soon enough.
