  • Meanwhile in the real world, the vast majority of liberation movements are Marxists, Trotskyist or otherwise left wing. Including, you know, people like the PFLP, Myanmar's PDF, POUM during the Spanish civil war, the Zapatistas, Sandisnistas.

    What are you actually doing for the liberation of oppressed people kther than tone policing?

  • Yup, I've talked to quite a few normies who are mostly on the gun control side of things who are now considering getting a PAL to go practice at the range so they "know how to handle a weapon in case the need ever arise".

  • And it was much harder in the 90s in the US than it is now. Gay bashing was still pretty common. Change takes time. The direction of change is at least as important. It's obvious that Russia and China are changing in diametrically opposite direction from one another. Go on see for yourself on Red Note, plenty of gay and lesbian content there.

    Same can be said for quality of life as well. Russian's life expectancy has been declining (not even accounting for the war), and so has their purchasing power and disposable income. Chinese citizen on the other hand are clearly benefiting from the system in which they evolve.

    There are certainly things one can be critical about, but just discarding the whole of China and its system as a failure and counter to human wellbeing is pure copium and western exceptionalism.

  • Yeah I see no reasons why these two wouldn't work. You could get an FXO to to go from that to VoIP, but obviously you're losing encryption (I know, srtp and zrtp are thing but still) unbeknownst to your interlocutor which isn't a very nice thing to do.

  • Oh OnePlus allows that? Dude it'd be fucking great is Calyx and/or Graphene could support them they are like half the price of Pixels and their downsides is for the most part shorter update life cycle, which this would fix!
