Conservatism: where the cruelty is the point.

[–] rekabis@lemmy.ca 2 points 6 days ago

1985/1986 Volkswagen Jetta Carat, 4dr, manual transmission with working AC, PW, & PDL.

This is literally my grail vehicle. I have been on the lookout for a Carat for the last 20 years, but every one I have come across is either falling to pieces with heavy rust, or barely road-worthy in other ways. Last one I saw had the power windows stripped out and replaced with hand cranks because the owner was too lazy to fix the motors.

And I want a Canadian/Euro vehicle, with only kilometers on the speedometer.

Anyone in British Columbia (or even western Canada) with a decent-condition (no rust holes), running and road-worthy Carat with the above specs are encouraged to reach out to me.

JFC what a blast from the past! I remember being on Usenet with Microplanet Gravity.

But without them most ecosystems would fail

a minor hiccup, at most. Many ecosystems wouldn’t even notice.

To all those farmers, the only thing I could possibly say is,

“I hope you have the day you voted for”.

So the UK is now officially pro-genocide?

Good to know.

This broken english is printed with impeccable quality.

That’s probably the funniest bit about this whole thing. Absolutely impeccable workmanship, but horrendous English. If only they spent a touch more money for decent translator.

Legit impressed with the sharpness of that text at that size. That’s definitely not from any fly-by-night back-alley Indian factory using sweatshop labour.

Censorship and book burning is always the leading edge of Fascism.

I love how the Streisand Effect works. They just made this app the hottest thing out there.

[–] rekabis@lemmy.ca 3 points 1 week ago

Yup. Problem is, not too many people can effectively live hundreds of kilometres away from their jobs. And not many people want a 2-4hr daily commute. And anything that has electricity and water to the lot is already being snapped up by “investors” looking to flip the thing for a massive profit.

We have a really big problem with a lack of effective restraints on the asset-owning Parasite Class

Allowing men’s issues to even be addressed risks giving legitimacy to the fact that these issues even exist. And if they exist, men can no longer be that evil monolith that exists only to be torn down and used as the cause for whatever is wrong with the world.

After all, the zero-sum game must be properly reinforced with an appropriate evil that cannot be allowed to have any weaknesses or redeeming attributes.
