I don't think there is any problem with recognizing Chomskys value as a left wing intellectual and critic of the american empire while still fundamentally disagreeing with him on some things

thanks for the update, i was just starting to wonder

i dare you to drink my home-brewed honey ale and repeat that statement

i wonder if Will has inferiority issues because both his father and grandfather have wikipedia pages, but he doesn't

i mean the first tanks were tractors with metal sheets, soo....

i read their sever rules. nothing about explicitly being for anarchists/anti ML. I think it just happens to be dominated by anrachists, like most of political mastodon. my guess is that's because it's mostly folks from The West ™️ ©️ , and there tend to be a lot more anarchists than marxists in western countries

yeah that was my impression so far also. i just got onto kolektiva.social, let's see if they give me the boot for being a red fascist smh.

gab is such a clusterfuck. As a radical proponent of free and equal access to the internet, i am okay with fascist communities online. or rather, the problem is them being fascists, not them being online. BUT we need to keep them in their boxes, and capitalist social media tends to turn conservatively minded ppl into all out nazis, so that is def a problem. I say let them stay on gab, parlor and 4chan

based idea

i just joined kolektiva.social. let's see how that goes

kolektiva.social

is the only one i've heard about, and only today after researching. i've only been around the FOSS/Linux related instances so far. thanks a lot for the hint

edit: i did look at todon.eu as well, but they are explicitly anti ML, i don't want to join a server that calls me a fascist. like wtf

it shows a hyper capitalist future society. Everything is over-sexualized, the gun stores are literally called '2nd amendment', everyone's on drugs, you got Mac Mansions and slums. It is really a critique of capitalism. So overall i'd say it's good. There are some problems with it, for sure. Some aspects (like the depiction of sex workers and trans ppl) look very iffy when seen in isolation, but then again - it just shows where we'll end up if we keep on our current trajectory. Obviously some people want to hate it, and the fact that it has been over-hyped for the last year doesn't exactly help.

good to see you around, ami. glad to hear you had a good time

Chad Yanis Varoufakis has recently had a debate with the virgin John Bolton.

this made me giggle like a swamp witch sitting on her magic wand. downloading it as I'm typing. this is gonna be fun

I don't care about the market share of linux. If we need apple-esque marketing bs, and locking linux down, like cannonical is working on with ubuntu, to make linux palatable for the masses, I say fuck it. It's not worth it. Desktop linux is at a good place and only getting better, let the normies suffer with their windows and mac crap, if they so choose

she would have been the perfect VP pic hands down

can someone suggest me a good movie to watch?

just no one tell them he is an auth tankie red fascist

never had blues, but i doubt it

over and over and over again

it's a 40% layout, i can configure different layers and a bunch of other cool shit. The numbers are on another layer in the top row, or alternatively in a numblock layout, again, on another layer. Took some getting used to, but I'm very happy with it and wouldn't switch back to a regular layout (but that's more because of the linear layout than the small form factor, i'd actually prefer having another row for the numbers)
