  • I'm in favor of couchfucking over the usual fucking that the Catholic church defends.

  • The Gospels are pretty woke. The bible is a mixed bag of good and really bad shit. And ends with an acid dream/nightmare.

  • Some lost JAV. Specifically some of Kaho Shibuyas. Haven't been able to complete that collection yet. VRs and some older videos that the publisher doesn't even exist anymore. I'd pay even. But until I visit an old DVD shop in Japan they are lost to the Internet.

  • Dude. You can't look at modern American vehicles and tell me they are designed with pedestrian protection in mind.

  • This is what is so dumb. Safety is only ever considered for the people INSIDE the vehicle. It's insane.

  • Is this common the the Seattle area? I see one dude driving one all the time near me. Always give him a wave and he waves back. Are they legal in King county only? Or whole state?

  • It doesn't have to be profitable for the "city" that's socialized cost. It just needs to be profitable for capital.

    They'll burn $10 of your money to make $1 in profit.

  • How does the world cup define losing money? Because the absolute devastation that the world cup leaves in it's wake to already poor and impoverished populations is definitely not being calculated. The human cost of labor exploitation alone is awful. But I guess that's what they mean by "profitable" anyway.

  • If you think electing an anti Zionist pope would change anything you have not been paying attention.

  • Fun fact. Not actually just paint. They use different colored alphant altogether. It's why it's so vibrant and never fades.

  • I'd say this is basically just the result of neoliberalism, something Clinton contributed to, but not Clinton alone.

    It was very much a bipartisan economic policy that started from Carter, put on overdrive with Reagan, and continued into our economic policies today.

  • I would say that the Tarrifs are a further attack on the working class as they were back then. Another tool to consolidate capital.

    The largest difference today is the financialization of our economy (basically meaning every company runs like a bank). This had been a method of consistently allowing the contradictions of capitalism to be delayed and passed off through layoffs and stock buybacks to further sustain the bubble of this system.

    It's almost impressive at how well capitalism has adapted throughout the centuries to suck more and more away from the working class before it has to deal with a potential revolutionary "breaking point". It's definitely something Marx could have never predicted.

    TLDR: I would not say that tarrifs are the cause of either of these events. I would say they are a tool of the ruling class to be used in times that capitalism hits a crisis. The cause is capitalisms contradictions itself. These extreme tarrifs are just a tool to attempt to deal with those contradictions.

  • For anyone that needs to hear it: the ADL absolutely knows how damaging this is to Jewish people to equate the sale of weapons to Israel as being a form Antisemitism.

    The state of Israel has always had its goals aligned with increasing antisemitism. They know exactly what they are doing. They aren't just "using it as a shield". They are using these false claims of antisemitism as a shield and a sword.

    Antisemitism is GOOD for the interest of the the Israeli state. They care nothing about the safety of Jews outside of Israel (or inside for that matter). They care about their Zionist projects success.

  • I would say politicians are using the rise in anti American sentiment to solidify their positions in more nationalist forms of government. I would warn my comrades in the west. This rise in nationalism can be dangerous. Even if it is directed at being against America (which is good) it can also be leveraged to build fascist policies in your own country. Be wary of your "liberal" politicians and parties. They likely do not have your best interest at heart. They know material conditions will decline with the fall of the American empire. They will do everything they can to keep their power. And they'll do it off the backs of your working class.

    Do not substitute class solidarity for Nationalism. Tarrifs are a direct attack on the working class of the world. We pay those. No matter what country we reside in.

  • As someone that knew engineers that worked at Tesla. Interviewed and turned down an offer there myself.

    As soon as I graduated in 2015 and got a job in silicon valley I quickly learned that literally every real engineer hates Elon. Especially the ones that work at Tesla. And they treat their employees on H1 visas like indentured servants.

    Awful piece of shit company. But I respect most engineers that work at it. I'm glad the normies outside of the industry are finally catching on to this. For years I had to explain to my normie friends why Elon is a braindead idiot and they would just nod and not really understand why.

    I hope people start to understand that "tech bros" and "people that work in tech" are entirely different people. The SF bay area just happens to be filled with both of them.

    Very thankful I don't live there anymore. This isn't unique to Tesla either. But Tesla is definitely a perfect example for people to point to and understand now.

    Most engineers just wanna make shit. And most companies take advantage of a lot of people that enjoy their profession by overworking and exploiting them to an insane degree. Especially H1 visas. Those guys/gals deserve so much more. Tech needs a massive union push.

  • Can you plug it in and also deplete the battery at a similar rate somehow? Like an infinite money drain on Tesla?

    I'm sure the impact to climate change would be canceled out by the loss in profit to a Nazi billionaire. But I'd have to do some math.

    Maybe we hack together a device that just drains power and tricks the chargers into thinking it's your car. Use the power consumption to do something like mine crypto and send it to a charity. Idk. Just brainstorming shit lol

    A simple one would be to power your PC off the car and just let it sit. Mine some crypto for free on Elon's dime.

    Fuck this Nazi PoS.

  • I think you just mean capitalism.

  • Every company is "financialized" now. They essentially run like a bank. They aren't being run based on a product or a service. They are being run to maximize returns for investors to such an extreme level that stock buybacks and layoffs are the tools used to bring the stock price up.

    The stock market has been a scam for awhile and not really connected to any company "doing well". But they are essentially just shitcoins at this point. All running on whether or not people feel like they'll go to the moon or not.

    People that mock Bitcoin but pretend like Tesla doesn't run on the same toilet paper thin vibes are kidding themselves.

    Edit: this is not a defense of crypto. It's just an example of how fucked the stock market is. Especially in "tech" companies.

  • Anyone saying he failed at doge is missing the point. He absolutely hyperfocused on destroying and delaying countless lawsuits against his companies. Please let's focus on this instead.
