I really need to see if my new gaming computer can run fallout 76 on Linux, if so I really don’t have a need to be running windows anymore

Back in highschool and immediately after, I was on 4chan. Def Nazis everywhere then too… But I didn’t turn out like that, I also don’t think I ever looked at /pol/ 🤷 I was only there for jokes and shock content, being shortly after oggrish and whatnot.

But that was all when I was so angsty and misanthropic, and for some reason felt like I hated myself. I got older, and eventually discovered I didn’t hate myself that much… And I didn’t know how I could care about myself without truly internalizing the horrors of the world that I was aware of and caring about the rest of the world, the vast majority of the horrors being from class struggles or collateral damage of them.

So yeah, my self growth had a lot to do with my radicalization. As did my heart.

That AI would prolly be based af. Might be an asshole from the trolling we do for the “venting”… I’m thinking of a teenager with class consciousness, marx with acne and memes or some such.

GD right

This smells like concessions to avoid larger inconveniences to me. Obviously I say do that shit… But it’s a ways away from eating of the rich that I’d prefer.

The “economy” 😩 our measure of success is how much value is extracted from the highest amount of people to be siphoned to the finance sector… To do well at this is terrible for everyone else, to have a stable quality business is to fail 🤷

I’m using connect again because sync shit the bed it seems with the update, I really can’t complain!

I could DEF learn a lot more in that department. Especially in the realm of farming and food storage

Prepping as in hoarding resources? I’m not so big into that. Prepping so that I and a group over dozens, to hundreds, to thousands of miles could maintain communications? That shit’s my special interest.

I definitely feel like I could be a much better communist and find and culture actual relationships and arrangements with others to improve situations for us all.

In all fairness I don’t doubt that we have total Nazis in the military. But I also believe there’s intentional disregard for any other reason to not want to go Bring Democracy™️

So any resistance to fight on the side of apartheid is straight antisemitism? Not wanting to fight against a Semite people? Got it 🙄

TFU!

I’m a salty commie that wants a mate 60! 😭

Mint is Irish? Aaayyy, I’m Irish! Cool beans… or potatoes, I dunno

Me too! But I’m poor!! 😭

Where I completely disagree with disallowing people in Cuba from using a distro… I’d wager at least some of it has to do with redhat being a business that makes money and that is at odds with the horseshit blockade and sanctions. And by that logic I wouldn’t be surprised to see something similar from canonical, especially support related as that’s something you can purchase if I’m remembering correctly.

That’s my thoughts without knowing the specifics so I’m quite literally talking out of my ass and spitballing.

I’m still weighing how continuing to vote for (2020 was the first time I’ve voted) liberals are just pushing back possible material conditions for more people to feel the need for class consciousness.

Would I personally like for neoliberalism somehow to be regulated to the point where capital interests are restricted and the people of the world aren’t pitted against each other for oppression and have social safety nets? Obviously not ideal, but for a number of years I thought that was the hope. I thought I was voting for more “rights” and more “equity”.

In the dichotomous US politics it certainly seems that only one side makes any sense to me. That’s with having to take all of the neolib propaganda fed to us at face value and even believe that the world was as it was presented to us. Invading other countries was for “spreading democracy” and “pushing for human rights” or “fighting terror”. The companies and corporations “helped” and “advanced society” and that’s just the way it is and that’s the best idea.

As I learn more I realize that neither of the “two sides of the coin” have or will ever make changes that support the majority of people in the country unless absolutely forced, and then only in the most miniscule way possible. MUCH LESS help the majority of people in the world.

Today I’d LOVE to see major sea changes and revolution. But no sort of revolution happens from one person’s actions and without the vanguard and community and many many people.

Personally, I’m planning on voting for West with the full knowledge that nothing will come of it other than raising some eyebrows and people questioning how he got any votes. But I’m also trying to get more involved and find community, because that’s the only way I see making progress.

A: I said “n’stuff” and “n’shit” waaaaaaay too much in the 90s. B: I wasn’t a teenager until 2000 so…

Just because it didn’t mean that originally doesn’t mean we can’t make it mean that today

I already have YouTube premium and I’ve moved from Spotify to YouTube music (since that’s included) years ago. I’ve been using Google podcasts for several years and it works well enough. There’s several Patreon podcasts I listen to and until YouTube music supports rss podcasts it won’t be my main podcast app.

Now, this stupid “commenting on songs” thing YouTube music added I have zero use for. Why tf would I want to have a social interaction while I’m trying to get a dopamine hit from loud music that rattles my bones so I can FORGET ABOUT SOCIAL INTERACTIONS for just a moment. JFC it makes no sense to me. Apologies, rant over.

When Google gets rss podcasts on YouTube music I’ll switch over
