Just to combat misinfo, Hasan clearly did not shock that dog
If it makes him happy, then I'm sure he looks good in it!
Best fucking name for a hacker group ever. Where do I sign up?
When you get the chance to choose your name, you choose the one that makes you happy. It's for you, not others. Your existence shouldn't have to be convenient. Seek your joy, as long as it isn't harming others.
I literally cheered out loud. I needed this hope. Do not bend to Fascism. Better to die defying dictators than help them rule. Obviously, if you have the option, preserve yourself. But this is the prisoner's dilemma on a massive scale.
Nothing they said there seems unreasonable. They/them seems like a perfectly normal (and more importantly neutral) default way of referring to people. If I was in person with someone, and they started throwing a fit because I defaulted to they/them for them (which I usually do), I would assume they were a bigot who doesn't understand pronouns.
Not saying that's the case with these other people, but I believe there's a reasonable limitation on how much you can expect strangers to assume/understand on first meeting.
Woah, I had no idea social credit was made up. That kinda blows my mind.
I like you guys lots ❤️
I hope you don't get disappeared by our Sharky State. Your memes can border on rancid but mostly I'm into it 😎
I'm an anarchist myself, but if you try to approach their argument logically I think you'll have a better chance of understanding why people might come to different conclusions than you.
If the bourgeois were left to their own devices, it stands to reason they'd be back on their shit as soon as they saw a chance. In that light, an oppression of the formerly oppressive minority for the benefit of the majority (literally everyone else) might seem like a necessity.
Based on what theory I've read, that and protections from external capitalist pressures are the entire reason for implementing a 'dictatorship of the proletariat'.
I'm not saying you're wrong here, just that some empathy might help some leftist unity along into helping more people see things our way.
I mean I'll admit my bias as a politically-minded leftist, but I like them. I don't agree with all their takes, but it feels like a positive way to poke some holes in the echo chamber a bit.
Fuckin finally
