Wild that their excuse is "no we won't rename them because some day the people we rename them after might be just as hated as Adolf Hitler and Bennito Mussolini.". Which implies that they MUST name them after other people and not, you know, anything else. It also implies that Hitler and Mussolini are just 2 random guys from the past, like they aren't nearly universally considered 2 of the most evil humans ever.

Yeah some 95% of our end user devices (>8000) have the F8 prompt. Logistics is losing their minds about the prospect of sending recovery USBs to roughly a thousand locations across NA.

Working on our units. But only works if we are able to launch command prompt from the recovery menu. Otherwise we are getting a F8 prompt and cannot start.

Considering all the other listed countries are classified as developing nations, no yeah it's one of the worst in the world lol. It's worth it for you to read up on how the gini coefficient is calculated.

Also, it is ranked 57th when sorted worst to best. It is sorted at 120th from best to worst. Worse than 119 other nations.

And no, you're again misusing the term communism. Communism isn't a scale it refers specifically to a state in which the means of production are shared collectively amongst the working class. You've invented a thing and then are using your own invention to sort terms that have actual meanings not related to your invented scale

America is also not a mixed economy, what are you on about? What industry is public in the US? Most of the states don't even have public power services. Essentially, none have public medical services.

There are many sources online that can explain the distinction for you. Check what you're reading and from where, as America is incredibly biased against socialism and there are entire corporations dedicated to spreading anti-socialist propaganda.

There is no aspect of the US that is in any sense communist. Communism refers very specifically to a style of government which directly owns and controls the means of production across all forms of industry. This style of government is controlled by the proletariat. That is not the case for any industry in the US. The link you provided is propaganda not based on any actual communist beliefs. Communism is not a "command based" anything, it is a philosophy with regards to the distribution of the means of production and how the fruits of the working class's labor should be shared.

The US gini coefficient is 39.8 as of 2021. Making it one of the worst countries in the world for income inequality. There are plenty of areas in the southern states especially where entire towns are below the poverty line, some very significantly below it.

Youre thinking of laissez-faire capitalism, maybe even libertarian capitalism?

America is absolutely capitalist in every sense of the term. The entire nation is corporatized and the government has no particularly influential anti-capitalist entities. Both competing parties are capitalist. The social framework by which we raise children is structured to indoctrinate them into the ideologies of neoliberalism and American economic exceptionalism. The propaganda that American society is meritocratic is enforced throughout our entire lives, all with the aim of suppressing the class consciousness of the working class.

People are responding to you with derision because what you're saying doesn't make any sense. Capitalism and socialism are not based entirely on hard rules. They're both economic ideologies and social philosophies packaged into cultural frameworks. America is actively anti socialist. They have a very long history of anti communism and anti workers' rights. America is the holotype of post-Reagan neoliberal capitalism. It is one of the worst countries in the world in terms of wealth disparity and income inequality. It is one of the least regulated economic powers in history, with it being open knowledge that billionaires rule the country and can essentially do anything they want without facing any kind of material consequences.

Played countless hours of TF2 between 2009 and 2012. Wild that in 3 years, it'll be 2 decades old.

Yeah I can definitely see how the argument about "original semites" is coming very close to outright hatred and antisemitism. We have to be more conscious of the language we use than that. We shouldn't be making arguments in this vein but instead focusing on anti-colonial arguments. When discussing the colonialism of relocating European Jewish communities to Palestine there's no reason to be using this kind of "race politics" language.

The relationship between Ashkenazi jews and the communities that were already present in Palestine is not something I understand very well, and more broadly the history of Ashkenazi jews as a whole is something I'm only familiar with as it relates to early 20th century European politics. It's something I'd like to do my own research on from reliable sources to better understand how these kinds of arguments feed into genuine hatred of Jewish people.

I'm not as educated on the broader nature of antisemitic arguments as I should be. I appreciate you adding context to why some Jewish students feel unsafe with the discourse going on at the moment. Anti-Zionist action has an obligation to protect Jewish people as much as it has an obligation to protect Muslim people and ethnic Palestinians. Our goals ought to be to separate ourselves from race hierarchy and protect human rights for all. It's critically important that in advocating against the Israeli government and the IDF that we do not tolerate anti-semitism in any form and that we reject the support of ant-semitic people wherever it appears.

It should be illegal to misrepresent an ad as a post or comment. This exact thing should be against the law. The boundary between advertising and social media is so thin at this point. It has to stop. It's dangerous for consumers. Corporations should have to clearly label themselves at every turn. The usage of AI to intermingle advertising and social media should be blanket illegal.
