It's quite obvious that it's very different to use it as a verb and as a noun to refer to someone.

Signs like this make me sad

I remember reading that this is because studios don't compress game assets any more. I'd gladly trade a few seconds load time for reasonable disk usage.

Yeah, sometimes people use loli stuff which is definitely a red flag for pedo behavior IMHO, but posting with a MILF is quite literally the opposite xd.

Yup, that's what happened when I found out other people were trans. I was like 'You can do that!?'. The feeling had always been there but seeing others made it obvious that you don't have to just be dysphoric and depressed.

I don't read this as the discussion disenfranchising young men, rather just stating that the broader disenfranchisement of the working class has its effect of making many men vulnerable to far right rhetoric of a day where many white cis-het men did not have to try, like at all (at least, that's the rhetoric).

I read this as saying that we need to counter these societal issues on multiple fronts; not pandering to right-wing men, while also not letting the far right rhetoric take hold of younger men. Offering a good alternative which actually helps them (leftism) instead.

I think they got democratic socialism confused with social democracy (which is understandable given the similar names). The difference is that democratic socialism is... well, socialism and that social democracy is just liberalism with a social safety net.

(Side-note: Socialism is in essence about organizing the economy democratically so the fact that tankies have coopted the term to also mean totalitarian state capitalism unless democratic is added as a prefix is such a shame.)

I know people don't actually crush living creatures in these but they make me feel so fucking bad when they pop up on my page. Just the thought is fucking disgusting.

Fuck Opera, all my homies use Firefox

Honestly, just taxing the rich is one of the most milquetoast and obvious takes ever. Should not even be radical imo since it just makes sense

Chiming in to say that Debian is great if you're comfortable with how Ubuntu works, as Ubuntu is basically Debian + Corporate support + Snaps.

I switched all my machines from Ubuntu to Debian during the Red Hat debacle, since I don't have faith in corporate distros anymore and generally prefer the more democratic approach that the Debian foundation takes.
