TIL Andrew Tate is biracial
We need to start distributing resources more effectively, not culling people. The majority of the human population consumes very little.
When people talk about overpopulation they always want to get rid of people other than the ones in their own home country, strangely. When the advocates for such policies are in first world nations that consume considerably more than the people they want to get rid of.
Let me ask you this: if you believe the earth has exceeded its carrying capacity, wouldn't your conclusion be to start getting rid of people or halting their reproduction? That's textbook eugenics...
Meanwhile Israel has a holiday where they celebrate running over an anti-genocide protestor with a bulldozer, flattening and killing her. They make pancakes on that day to celebrate.
These are deeply boring to me. I'm an asshole so sometimes I like to completely kill the vibe and force a subject change.
Im black. Usually something along the lines of "I'm like 30% European, so weird how that got there!" makes everyone very very uncomfortable and we suddenly stop chatting 23andme blood quantum.
I've never actually taken one of these tests either but this line works.
Large scale factory farming with little regulatory oversight and wretched conditions for both animal and human alike.
It's going to have to get much much worse before engineers unionize. I am sorry to say my fellows do not occupy reality in a class sense and these layoffs are just a taste of what's to come.
I also don't encounter a lot of the "learn to code" types irl, if ever. If anything, i hear pushback on outsourcing and bootcamps. I wonder how much of that sentiment was actual engineers vs students online who hadn't entered the workforce yet.
Most engineers I know are OK but not at all class conscious people.
I also have some bias here, I don't live or work on the coasts so the silicon valley elistist tech bro musk worshipping cutthroat competitive culture you see at big tech is just not there. And those types tend to be the loudest shittiest dudes online.
Midwest here, most folks just treat it as a job like any other. Still won't fucking unionize though, US propaganda is too strong.
SIR! SIR YOU ARE BREAKING THE RULES
turning a big dial taht says 'Racism' on it and constantly looking back at the audience for approval like a contestant on the price is right
Might be nostalgia glasses + the new sorting algorithm. I've been here a while and things haven't changed that much.
What I have noticed:
- Discussions have mostly moved from posts to megathreads, honestly this is kinda weird to me but w/e. Its still happening tho, just maybe not in the expected format
- less trolling, due to the efforts of the admins/mods
- less reactionary shit in general, chuds & terfs & stupidpol types get utterly decimated when trying to post here, there were definitely people that used to slip past the radar and would poison the well of discussion here
- People here are a little less liberal (me included) after having to kill the Bernie in their hearts and minds + forced integration with lemmygrad
Haaretz is more like "the land", its a pretty common word you see in liturgy and it's usually like the land of Israel.
