:( you are right

I don’t think that’s the etymology

Who doesn’t like boobs afterall? (Why is it called reconstruction and not construction?)

I’m Italian, there is no Bologna sausage in Italy. The American stuff is a bad mock up of mortadella, which is a Bolognese kind of sausage, hence the name Bologna.

But conservative views are not the problem themselves, even though I don’t always agree with those, authoritarian views are.

And as I said in another comment, having the means to inform yourself doesn’t mean that you will do it, because it’s a chore, at least that’s how it is in our society. If it was different, if the public square (which is social media atm) wasn’t controlled by private companies, I think it would be a bit better.

I didn’t know that, but sounds like an old classic

In our society social media have destabilized our methods of communication and I think our communication has been broken and we still don’t know how to fix it. The public square is now private, even if the change might seem subtle, it’s a big disruption in society (Meta, Twitter, Google, TikTok).

Usually fascism stems from the bourgeoisie, not the lower class. But through disinformation from the class that controls information it manages to get promoted from the lower class too.

But when voting happens in a society that is misinformed, usually maliciously so, like in Turkey, it is not democratic, democracy works and is true to itself only when a vote is informed.

no vulcanoes aren’t a location with thinner crust, but a place where a bubble of magma is stuck in the crust, because of a hotspot or because of subduction or other reasons. When the pressure is too high, or there are forces that push the magma upwards, it “leaks” some magma, some times violently, some times no, like in Hawaii. An inactive volcano probably has a bubble without enough pressure to release it, and that has no upward forces nor a way of building more pressure.

At the end you can only place grey scale pixels, and after that only white pixels

Not really, communism is about owning the produce of your work, that can be achieved in different ways, one for example (the main one) is by democratising the work place, which at the moment is run in a feudal and authoritarian manner. Where you work and your employer owns what you do, similar to how the feudal system would function.

In this case communism would be more democratic than our current system.

The problem is not state socialism, it’s the authoritarian side of it. Tankies promote authoritarian views similar to fascists but with a different economics view (not even that different some times), hence they prefer the dictatorships like USSR (in these days even Putin, which is idiotic), North Korea, China; over what they perceive as imperialist, the USA (I agree on calling it imperialistic and disliking it, but not on considering it worse than dictatorships).

I’m a communist which likes state socialism, but what is and was present in those dictatorship (ignoring the authoritarian side which I despise) is state capitalism.

I lack one thing from windows’ alt+tab, the ability to keep the alt+tab view while pressing alt+canc or alt+q to close that window.

It allowed to much more efficiently clean my window mess
