You mean the lady that basically called for this invasion, praised Trump and MAGA, promised she would let western companies extract whatever they want in exchange for personal power? Yeah, surely this will end well for Venezuelans.

Reminder that Kissinger won the Nobel Prize in his time. Winning the Nobel Prize means you align with US geopolitical interests, nothing more.

The USA are a blight on the Americas and the larger World. Their fanatic population will immediately jump in to justify a violent, naked attempt at stealing this country's mineral resources. This already happened dozens of times, alway

Grok breaks France's hate-speech laws all the time but they're only going after it because it can create images of naked people? Musk's propaganda nexus should have been banned years ago here, but not for this stupid reason.

I can't remember the last time the US invaded a South American country and it ending up in a better position. Usually, a fascist dictator is installed, and the country is economically raped out of its wealth. The population is left opp

The entire media apparatus is owned by oligarchs: from Fox News to Twitter to Meta, now CNN... All are relaying non-stop right-wing propaganda. There can be no real democracy while information is this captive.

At some point, you have to call out a genocide for what it is. Many are still quick to rationalize it away, or relay Israeli propaganda about the many killed journalists being Hamas terrorists, or humanitarian aid workers also being Hamas t

1) It's not. In fact, most scholars agree these numbers are way lower than the real one, as those are only the confirmed deaths. 2) Source? The only places where I can read about it are in far right Israeli or American communications.

Are you fine with the mass killings of civilian populations in Gaza, yes or no? War is ugly, I'm not trying to make the Palestinians into saints, but the other guy is advocating the insane position that Israel can do no wrong, and that

Bored in math or physics class back in Highschool, programming little games in BASIC on my TI-82, learning everything by just navigating the menus and trying to guess what each keywords meant. Then, finding programming fun, decided to follo

Stop using your thought-terminating clichés about terrorism and look at actual stats: > As of 19 November 2025, over 72,500 people (70,525 Palestinians and 2,109 Israelis) have been reported killed in the Gaza war according to the Gaza H

All in all, Israel is doing most of the killing here. They have access to more sophisticated weapon, but it's no less barbaric.

And when you get a broken leg you'd go shop around, comparing prices and looking up reviews? You can't have a "real" healthcare market. It is inelastic, people will always pay whatever is asked of them. It requires massi

> That would be "eat the rich"? It looks like more demand for homicide and cannibalism, at least at a face value. Very bad faith interpretation. You know full well that's not what is meant when this phrase is employed. &gt

Please do not equate demands for more taxations with calls to do more genocides of jewish people. The far right is uniquely problematic in our modern political landscape. And I disagree, free speech is a liberal value, you don't get to

Clever reframing putting all the blame on Ukraine and the western world. You conveniently "forgot" to mention that Russia is the sole aggressor in this story. And no, Ukraine would have fallen a while ago already if not for wester

Just read the damn law before spouting nonsense. There have been hate speech laws since the 1980s. There are simply just more and more insane neonazis groyper-types online to which it is applicable.

Surely by now you must have noticed that the Right is completely uninterested in solving these things? Cutting social nets and criminalizing abortions will only aggravate these important issues. Also, I don't see why caring about the h

I thought (maybe mistakenly) that your body developed immunity to the adenovirus used to edit your own DNA, and so this trick could only be used once? Am I wrong?

Depends on the color of your skin, I guess. Also, border agents have the right to search your phone and have been known to refuse entry to people speaking ill of Trump on socials.

They're already mostly going after legal residents, some citizens even. Their goal is to terrorize the out-group, nothing else.

At which point to you just go "fuck Apple" and choose to display a passive-agressive "This game only works on browsers with reasonable compatibility" instead? That's probably what I'd have done.

Usually, when something is broken the correct course of action is to fix it, not demolish it utterly.
