I hate 2fa so very much and long for the world of the past where just having a fucking account and a password was enough, now you need to check your fucking email and wait for a fucking text to turn on your fucking toaster
I don’t care what security nerds say I don’t need every single fucking god damn thing to have the same security as a bank account
bruhs pulled pork
with no research and 0 sources I can confidently say you can thank China for this, someone’s out there making solar and wind actually affordable and cost effective and I can guarantee you it’s not the west
many of us migrated here because the other site wanted to lock down their api and user data so that they could auction it to google for profit.

why would you buy an american plane with how boeings hold up
for the low low cost of 300 hundos a month you can have “AI” waifu boobies and an “assistant” that sends you illegal porn, wow the future truly is here
im assuming this apple based honey is for vegans so if any of y’all have tried it let me know how it would work as a honey substitute in cooking recipes, the best solution I’ve found so far is to ignore my chefs who tell me not to use corn syrup and mix that with brown sugar. It’s obviously not the same as honey but better than just going “ah fuck it just skip it”
Without looking it up I can confidently tell you that bee free honey isn’t about “avoiding ecological collapse affecting a product,” it’s about vegans giving waaaay too much of a shit about bees to the point that honey is “not vegan”
i don’t think we should even federate tbh but it is funny seeing people complain about hexbear
These people don’t seem to realize biden was president for 4 years and could have done something about it for every one of those four years but didn’t, for a reason

if Russia is going to use illegal chemical weapons why the fuck would they use this instead of literally any of a number of more effective chemical weapons
yeah you wanna elaborate there buddy, so we can see who the real brain genius is
i object to this because the phrasing “invasion” still makes it out like the DPRK are the bad guys
it was a civil war, the lead up to the civil war seeing the South have a police dictatorship supported by the U.S. which did literally every awful thing the u.s. has accused the DPRK of doing, including killing people for the wrong fucking haircut
notice how literally no american ever talks about the U.S. civil war with “the North invaded the South”
and they’re the good guys because they “ended slavery”*
*terms and conditions apply
My favorite part was reading the AI explaining what it did and how it’s like “yeah I saw an empty database, i panicked, I did the exact thing you told me not to do, woops”

HOW MANY ARE THEY PLANNING TO KILL BY THEN??
Motherfucker, people were already commenting on how ACTUAL labor relations for LITERAL SERFS weren’t ACTUALLY as bad as wage labor (a form of slavery if you’re not too brainwashed to realize what it means to have to work for a wage TO SURVIVE) in the motherfuckong 1800s
This isn’t the own you think it is, it’s just an admission of your vast and all encompassing ignorance
We cry shame on the feudal baron who forbade the peasant to turn a clod of earth unless he surrendered to his lord a fourth of his crop. We called those barbarous times. But if the forms have changed, the relations have remained the same, and the worker is forced, under the name of free contract, to accept feudal obligations. For, turn where he will, he can find no better conditions. Everything has become private property, and he must accept, or die or hunger.
The result of this state of things is that all our production tends in a wrong direction. Enterprise takes no thought for the needs of the community. Its only aim is to increase the gains of the speculator. Hence the constant fluctuations of trade, the periodical industrial crises, each of which throws scores of thousands of workers on the streets.
Pyotr Kropotkin, The Conquest of Bread
Let me tl;dr that for you: literal fucking peasants would give up a quarter of their crop, and this was seen as barbarous. The wage laborer GIVES UP THE ENTIRETY OF THE PRODUCT OF HIS LABOR. In exchange, he recieves A FRACTION OF ITS VALUE IN WAGE. The relative exploitation here is obscene, and yet people like you, ignorant, think it’s some sort of voluntary contract that benefits us all.
But the wage laborer only “chooses” to work because they’ll starve in the streets otherwise. The employer only has the privilege of benefiting from their work by owning the means by which they can do profitable work. They EXPLOIT THE WORKERS’ SURVIVAL NEEDS and in doing so reap shares of profit from their labor that would make the cruelest medieval lord envious.
And now, you dumb motherfuckers sit here, reading all this, and think, oh, so you want to return to feudalism? like that in any way makes sense
How about ending the exploitation of labor entirely? That’s what socialism seeks to do. But you dumb motherfuckers are out here acting like your fucking landlords do you any favors (while somehow pretending to yourselves they’re any different from the evil feudal lords capitalism supposedly saved you from)
People in this thread: BUT WHAT ABOUT LIFE EXPECTANCY?!?!
Bro you really want to argue life expectancy in favour of the ideology that argues whether curing a patient is makes business sense?
Your long life expectancy is thanks to science, which has existed for a far greater percentage of human history. To argue it’s because of capitalism is dumb as hell.
We’re also literally watching it nosedive in the west and skyrocket in china but unfortunately the west is full of morons such as the one in this very thread who think that “everyone starved in medieval times” and that capitalism somehow liberated us from it
hey wait, let’s ask John Steinbeck how capitalism ACTUALLY TREATS AFFECTS FOOD SECURITY
The works of the roots of the vines, of the trees, must be destroyed to keep up the price, and this is the saddest, bitterest thing of all. Carloads of oranges dumped on the ground. The people came for miles to take the fruit, but this could not be. How would they buy oranges at twenty cents a dozen if they could drive out and pick them up? And men with hoses squirt kerosene on the oranges, and they are angry at the crime, angry at the people who have come to take the fruit. A million people hungry, needing the fruit- and kerosene sprayed over the golden mountains. And the smell of rot fills the country. Burn coffee for fuel in the ships. Burn corn to keep warm, it makes a hot fire. Dump potatoes in the rivers and place guards along the banks to keep the hungry people from fishing them out. Slaughter the pigs and bury them, and let the putrescence drip down into the earth.
There is a crime here that goes beyond denunciation. There is a sorrow here that weeping cannot symbolize. There is a failure here that topples all our success. The fertile earth, the straight tree rows, the sturdy trunks, and the ripe fruit. And children dying of pellagra must die because a profit cannot be taken from an orange. And coroners must fill in the certificate- died of malnutrition- because the food must rot, must be forced to rot. The people come with nets to fish for potatoes in the river, and the guards hold them back; they come in rattling cars to get the dumped oranges, but the kerosene is sprayed. And they stand still and watch the potatoes float by, listen to the screaming pigs being killed in a ditch and covered with quick-lime, watch the mountains of oranges slop down to a putrefying ooze; and in the eyes of the people there is the failure; and in the eyes of the hungry there is a growing wrath. In the souls of the people the grapes of wrath are filling and growing heavy, growing heavy for the vintage.
huh
ok hack me
