Marilyn Manson and Eminem are the real culprits here.

If you tell people now that Democracy is dead, they don't bother fighting the real fight, if and when push comes to shove.

Dems said this election is the end of Democracy, but still put an uninspiring right candidate. They said Trump is the fascist danger to all the US stands for. But having him and his crownies dismantled by getting criminal charges on them seemed to go too far. When grassroots movements came up and demanded change instead of embracing them, taking them seriously and talking with them properly, they were shunned and pushed down.

Now the greatest danger to corporate America are people to start organizing and taking to the streets. So hammer down the defeatist message, so the people suck up to their corporate overlords. The corporate overlords who won yet another election as both candidates represented their class interests.

Most lemmy.ml users and communities are perfectly fine. I didnt notice a higher number of problematic users from ml than from other instances mine is federated to. I think hexbear and lemmygrad and a bunch of nazi instances are defederated.

But not if the pressure is mostly coming from the external. Or worse if we look at Egypt, where now an even worse dictator than Mubarak rules, after the Egyptians have elected people the West didn't like, and getting couped quickly.

Some of the ruins are pretty neat too. But back then their architecture had style. The ruins of todays concrete and steal cubes are going to be lame.

CoD 2. Best campaign of the series imo. But it is a very different game from anything since MW. And of course it is some 20 years old by now.

I agree. KDE out of the box just looks solid and works. Especially when i came from Windows it was nice to know where basic functions are, and then slowly learn the cool stuff. But generally i like things to just be tidy and "bland" in the sense of not customized crazily.

For Boeing it is absolutely known to be malice. They don't "fail" to hold the engineers accountable. They push out the engineers that want to follow safety protocols and it is well documented.

While often better than in the US, you shouldn't overestimate the state of democracy in other countries.

A lot of the far right parties in Europe are successfully copying the polarization tactics from the US.

So will the return of the flag conclude the adventures of ressource usage in computers?

This sounds scaringly similar to a country in the Middle East heavily supported by the US.
