"In order to heighten his pleasure, man deliberately increases his needs, which were originally only a little more difficult to satisfy than those of the animal; hence luxury, delicacies, tobacco, opium, alcohol, pomp, display, and all that goes with this."

Smart phones are a negative, not a positive

That's exactly what they did, then people asked them why there was a minute of missing footage

Cell Phones have become ubiquitous and required for most parts of life so that the government can track all of our movements

Our government is a kleptocracy. We've Afghanistan'd ourselves. Got what we deserve i suppose

There's actually tons of research that says that a free market economy is much better at alleviating poverty than a centrally planned economy.

No, you are wrong

The harm is in allowing these fucking fascists to try to redefine the English language like the people's republic of china did during the cultural revolution. I'm not going to be bullied by liberal arts partisans into reconfiguring how my brain works because it makes them feel powerful

I had appendicitis and it feels like what i imagine getting stabbed feels like

Then I had a kidney stone and I can't even remember what appendicitis feels like anymore

Even if you're white, the police are chronically underfunded and so if you report a crime they often dont do anything at all about it other than maybe filing a report. If your car gets stolen, you're never seeing that car again

I didn't change any existing repo branches but I did change the default branch name in github back to master

The master branch is called master not because of slavery. It's a master copy of the code, like how in the record industry there are master records. It has nothing to do with slavery

Maybe North korea shouldn't have started that war

It's not inconsequential, but to blame the entire state if the country on the bombing campaign of the 1950s is to

1. Ignore the period that took place between the 1950s and the 1990s, during which their country was rebuilt with support from the soviet union (just as south korea was rebuilt with support from the US)
2. Deprive their government of literally all agency and blame their problems on the United States because it confirms your political biases

I only recently started doing it
