How tragic that man can never realize how beautiful life is until he is face to face with death.

  • On the contrary, you are displaying the tremendous privilege of living in the imperial core by being able to choose between “‘genocide’ and ‘genocide even more, and even more local genocide’” and justify literally voluntarily voting to choose genocide in order to make yourself feel more comfortable within the imperial core.

    True fascism taking power in the US means that I and the people around me will be murdered. But I don’t feel the ethical apathy to be able to coldly prefer international genocide of others to keep myself safe at home all the while pretending like I saved the freedom for the entire world as children and whole families are being murdered. Biden is not the progressive savior all of you claimed he was, now at least you admit you chose “genocide”—which I do, and history will, judge harshly.

    If you choose to vote for him again after this, you will consciously approve of genocide and be all the more guilty.

    First of all, what’s up with this title? I thought Zelensky fucking died.

    But the media was recently critical of Nazis in Ukraine until the current invasion. That includes BBC, Reuters, Guardian, and Telegraph just to name a few. Now they all pretend like it’s fake news, Russian propaganda. Haha

    And, as far as I know, Ukraine only started seeking NATO membership after the 2014 US-backed coup. (They first applied in 2008.) So, I don’t know if Ukraine, like the Scandinavian countries, didn’t actually have popular support to join NATO pre-2022 but it’d make sense if public opinion has now shifted.

    I mean, I hate right-wingers and Republican protestors because they want fascism but Democrat protestors are pretty lame and this is an accurate depiction of their direct action.

    Also, is no one going to point out the crying Dem looks identical to the profile picture of the woman who posted the t*eet?




  • Because I don’t want my work to be able to literally watch and record every keystroke and mouse-click I make. Much less listen or watch me at home by activating the mic or camera. There’s no way I’m using that compromised device at home regularly.

    I have a work laptop I only rarely use for just one very specific thing that I can only do on that laptop. I also have my personal laptop where I do everything including my work and if I want to sidebrowse stuff then I open up a different browser—all of which are privacy-hardened.

    I just recently got a new laptop so now I have one that is even more locked down, secure, Linux-based, and I only use it for personal stuff.
