TC_209 [he/him, comrade/them]

Awesome! I haven’t made the switch to Linux yet, but DXVK has more often than not given me some performance boosts in more demanding games on Windows.

Guys, gals and enby pals will look at this and go “Hell yeah!”

For the purpose of the satire, they left out the whole point of the books, which is something you’d know if your knowledge of LotR wasn’t based entirely on cultural osmosis.

Over 200,000 Palestinians haven’t survived the past year and you don’t care. Never trust a narcissist to have anyone else’s interest at heart.

You support genocide. You’re a geek without a soul.

Trump was best buddies with Jeffery Epstein andremovedd a 13-year-old girl at Epstein’s New York apartment – Trump being into kinky sex with consenting adults would be a significant improvement.

On Hexbear, transphobes are executed on sight.

…this isn’t a news article… the headline being serious editorializing… Not saying it’s not true…

Harm reduction for me (Imperial Core citizen) but not for thee (2+ million Palestinian men, women and children).

Just openly admitting you support genocide. Disgusting. And don’t even pretend you care about anyone represented in the bottom half of the image; if Democrats said murdering trans folks was necessary to beat Trump, you’d support that too.

It’s just a small side mission, so it’s not well-documented. The Dark Side choice is to put explosives in the comm units in order to kill civilians; the Light Side choice is to sabotage grenades in order to only kill resistance soldiers. It’s a mission only for characters aligned with the Sith Empire, so even the “good” choice is pretty shitty.

There’s a mission in the video game Star Wars: The Old Republic in which an Imperial character can place explosives inside handheld communicators being used by resistance fighters – following through with the plan gives you lots of Dark Side morality points.

When asked to criticize communism, liberals will simply describe capitalism.

What other modes of production are currently in use by existing nations?

“Communism works the same way, except the party leaders are the ones on top,” you think to yourself as the crimson Poverty Line flashes upwards across your field of view. “Capitalism is the only system that works.” The wind is rushing hard in your ears now; the bottom of the Money Pit is coming up fast. “Besides, they worked hard to swim in the Money Pool, they deser–.” Splat.

Not at all surprising. Hell, Hillary Clinton beat Trump but 2.5 million votes in 2016 and she appointed him to the fucking presidency.

Israel has no regard for the lives of Jewish Palestinians and loves to recruit Christians to the cause of Zionism. Go back to Reddit.

Israel kills plenty of Jews, too. Israel promotes Zionism, not Judaism.

Again, perfectly fair. Before I was a communist, I rejected Marxist concepts as well. I’ve spent over two decades reading and listening to arguments for and against all sort of political, social and economic ideas. I’ve identified with centrism, liberalism, libertarianism, social democracy and other ideologies. Today, I consider myself to be a Marxist/socialist/communist not because it’s just the latest thing I’ve hit upon, but because it’s what’s made the most sense to me. When I use Marxist words and ideas, I don’t do so because I’m a Marxist; I’m a Marxist because those words and ideas have helped me to make the most sense of the world. And I’m certainly not demanding, or even asking, you do become a Marxist, I’m just asking you to consider what makes the most sense.

Joseph Sisko’s restaurant is his personal property, not his private property since it is not a money-making venture. Since money, and capitalism, do not exist in the Federation, there is no private property in any form. Furthermore, given Star Trek’s egalitarian/utopian vision of the future, no one is going to take Joseph Sisko’s restaurant – the laws of the United Earth government (which has direct jurisdiction over Earth) exist (imo) to protect people’s personal property, not take it away.
