I dont pity Texas for making Texas what it has become. I lived there for 25+ years, and those victims endorse the system that crushes them. They would defend Abott and Paxton with violence from the criminal charges they flee so desperately.
High King Margo, the destroyer. Just finished a rewatch of this.
Not to bash her performance since I love the show, but did anybody else think she was kind of phoning in some of her scenes in the final season? I started wondering if something was happening behind the scenes.
Corporate feudalism was a fun concept I played with in high school, but now that I'm older, I think I was just approaching the concepts of a lot of modern cyberpunk settings portrayed.
Just bought a Galaxy s20+ ultra refurbished a couple of months ago. Only cost like 300 and had comparable specs to the current $1500 phones.
Wife has to have apple and I couldn't bring myself to buy her refurbished for her birthday... bit the bullet and got an iPhone that was 1 or 2 generations old, still cost like 800-900.
I had a 3 day ban earlier this month for my first bad report lmao. To me, it read as hate/violence, and I had been curious as to what was actionable vs. not. Had 5 reports sent, first 3 successfully acted against (blatant racism/calls for genocide etc.). First one that was flagged as bad got me a 3 day ban. The second bad report didn't seem to do anything but have a message sent my way.
Had a second ban recently and decided I was sick of fighting their garbage system. I had paused scrapping my 10 year old account due to a lot of the account tools breaking down, but I've found one that let's me alter all old posts and scrub them, so I've resumed that.
And now they want to sell the content of my old banned account while refusing me access lmao.
I didn't call to violently overthrow a government, and the irony in the time frame of Washington's life you decided was important to this conversation.
It is convenient that you only wanted to talk about Washington after the Revolutionary War.

You might not know this, but American state representatives play a part in world politics and there are articles hosted on r/worldnews that are about them.
He's an idiot. You don't have to sign in to windows 11 to set it up, I literally do this daily. Not to mention corporate computers shouldn't be seeing the personal computer sign in screen to begin with unless it's in the hands of IT like me who would know what to do with it.
There used to be a skip button until about a month ago. Now, you just have to input bad creds and move forward.
Unlike Twitter, which actually locks down most of its site without an account...
Idiot just doesn't like getting called out for his idiocy and hypocrisy.
You spent all this time writing this because his comment is living rent free in your head lmao. At least he is raging against a billionaire, you're raging against a lemmy comment lmao
Reddit moderators sold their souls for garbage and deserve it. The super mods there serve capitalism for free and deserve all the shit that falls from it.
I advocated for forcing state representatives to stand and face a crowd of their voters in r/worldnews and was banned for inciting violence. It's literally the founding block of American Democracy that our government serves us and should be overthrown when it no longer serves the people, and people were responding positively to the message.
They banned me from the sub and escalated it to the Admins to get me temp site banned.
All because I said representatives should be forced to stand in front of the people they represent regularly.
I hope the CEO continues to grind them till they break.
Anybody who is aware of what happens during the collapse of democracy would be desperate to save it.
