  • Intersectionality & Marxism — Understanding Their Relationship

    Jump

  • That was my impression. The Idea that Marxism was in conflict with intersectionality was what the LLM was asserting, which I was having trouble believing.

    Intersectionality seems so complementary to Marxism

  • [The Onion] Bombshell ‘Wall Street Journal’ Investigation Finds Tyler Robinson Once Had Trans Uber Driver

    Jump

  • Does this imply the story about a trans roommate/partner has been debunked?

    A couple hours before reading about the roommate, I read a story quoting "Jay", a 40 year old muscle car fanatic who'd been dating Robinson:

    “He was pretty shy, he was just a car enthusiast,” the perplexed forty-year-old sighs, refusing to give his last name. “We just talked about our love for muscle cars, the noise they make and the way they drive."

  • TIL Pixar had to complete the entire Toy Story 2 in 9 months to meet Disney's deadline, The production was so straining that in one instance, an animator had forgotten to drop his child off at day...

    Jump

  • "Although quick action by rescue workers headed off the worst, the incident became a horrible indicator that some on the crew were working too hard,"

    The child didn't die, jesus, you can't post only the "headline" on a story like that!

    Hamas is an Israeli creation. Why not arrest Israeli officials first and foremost to fight them?

    Jump

  • Wasn't the Nazi government a significant "partner" in seeding the idea of a Jewish state? Others were talking about it first, sure, and the Balfour Declaration explicated the idea before the Nazi party existed, but the Nazis were hugely supportive of the idea as a more "humane" way to cleanse their population would be to simply ship the undesirables away.

    I don't have a source for this, that's part of why I'm asking about it. I don't know where I learned of it and, if anyone else has heard of this, maybe they know some names I can read about or point me to a source.

  • The administration's assault on science feels eerily Soviet

    Jump

  • Wait, what is that? The Soviets made it... more popular to get STEM degrees, is that what that means?

  • Can’t pay, won’t pay: impoverished streaming services are driving viewers back to piracy

    Jump

  • I thought this was a shitpost copypasta but there was no punchline and it ends with contact information... Is this a parody of a scam or someone actually trying to pull a scam?

  • Neo-Nazi gets maximum sentence in terror plot to destroy Maryland's power grid

    Jump

  • I suppose I can agree the way the system should work, with rehabilitation being the purpose, 20 years is a reasonable maximum and I'd be glad the decision for how long to hold a criminal wasn't mine. I haven't studied the subject, I'd trust the people who have.

  • Neo-Nazi gets maximum sentence in terror plot to destroy Maryland's power grid

    Jump

  • The maximum sentence for a plot to start a race war is twenty years?

  • Wait, it looks like the only way to install OpenRC2 is to have already installed RC2?

    Installing on my Linux machine:

    OpenRC2 needs files from the original RollerCoaster Tycoon 2 or RollerCoaster Classic in order to work. Please select the directory where you installed RollerCoaster Tycoon 2 or RollerCoaster Classic. (I haven't learned anything about how to live in the Linux environment, I barely use this machine)

  • Holy fucking shit this is the best motherfucking news this year

  • Exclusive: DOJ, FBI conclude Epstein had no "client list," died by suicide

    Jump

  • Wait, would you mind expanding on that about the Hungarian uprising? Isn't that where the term "tankies" originates from, something something Soviet tanks rolling over innocent civilians to get them back to work, I don't know what the original "tankies" argued about the situation but I'm curious if this proof actually establishes that, no, the original "tankies" weren't actually being unreasonable at all

  • New theory drop, STICK THEORY

    Jump

  • I know I'm not getting the metaphor here because to me, this looks like Republicans and Democrats working together to impale fascism using the power societies gain when wielding the "stake" of communism??

  • Countering the core conservative belief: "Lazy/worthless people deserve to die"

    Jump

  • (this is drunken blathering, nothing of consequence is said past this point)

    This is, actually, something that's become a pretty core belief for me. Since waking up from the conservative idiocy I was raised within I mean.

    The idea being that no grand atrocities were directed by lazy people. Related is my argument for the value of uncertainty, a person who isn't quite sure that they already understand everything important.

    (and I'm too drunk to tell if this comment is at all relevant to the context I'm posting it in...)

  • Rate of profit or something

    Jump

  • I don't want to throw any shade on the art you just made, that felt good to read aloud, I am wondering though if it isn't "proper" to end sentences "early" or even that it isn't "wrong" to continue them too long.

    I'm way less educated on "proper" grammar rules than I feel like I should be to ask this question but... Isn't that right there strictly a run-on sentence?

    There are a couple places where it feels like the sentence ends and after the comma, another sentence begins. Such as:

    ...each paragraph the substance of a chapter. With authors like Henry James and Marcel Proust..."

    or another place:

    "...modes of communication and consumption. A reflection of our times where efficiency..."

    Or is there no grammatical "rule" setting absolute limits on the length of a sentence?
