  • I feel the same way. Everyone has this blind belief that courts and laws are going to mean something to a group of people that laws don't apply to. Nothing is being dragged out or tied up except our bodies.

  • People like trump don't get sent to places like that, and it's fucked up that we have torture complexes and people are cool with that.

  • People are protesting because the cost of living is so high, they don't give a fuck about HDI or GDP.

    The 2010 referrendem was proposed because of high cost of living and rich white people controlling everything. Plus, were they gonna get support going forward or were they expected to become independent on their own after like 500 years of being colonized?

    I'm guessing rich white people are still in control, and the protestors are mostly black. Doubt they'd send their controversial anti riot police to beat on an island full of white French people.

  • They'll squash a threat to Bitian and it's reputation but I doubt they give a shit about the islands inhabitants, if they did they wouldn't keep all of the money from .Io domains. I don't know that potential security over having your own government is preferable. I'd say this is a great example of how British colonialism is still bad in the modern day.

  • Fuck France for doing this. Barring demonstrations and protests, then sending some special anti riot pieces of shit to hurt people stuck on the island that France forced their ancestors to, and now their likely stuck on, is gross as fuck. And living on the island sucks it sounds like, probably because of France.

  • Sure, that's one out of thousands of ways. You can also prop a group up by supplying weapons, food, medicine, vehicles, information...

  • I hate cops and all that shit, but how was he intimidated and harassed? He got the response he wanted and now he can wave his little dick around fascist land.

    Just because someone isn't arrested doesn't mean they haven't done something illegal. It's called an investigation and you can be arrested at a later time. I'd prefer that to just arresting people, wtf.

  • Oh, they're gift wrapped!

  • And he's still a billionaire who can do whatever the fuck he wants

  • Guliani's net worth is -$150 Billion, LOL! Fuck that guy.

  • Sounds ambitious as fuck but it would be amazing if the pull if off and it's fun to play.

  • Servers can pull in way more than that, like $40+/hr at semi fancy restaurants and Inns. Obviously it's location dependant, but $21/hr isn't crazy if you're on the US coast.

  • Or, they'll straight up murder them if they get in the way or resist. They don't give a fuck about who or what lives there. They will extract the resources they want and move on to the next spot.

  • I agree. We're all just processing this and should probably take a break and come back when there is more info and we can think critically. That said, this is very scary, like, I feel like my physical safety is at risk because of this. So, not knowing what others are going through, I'm going to have some compassion for any initial reactions. People are having these same discussions face to face right now but not everyone can do that and may need to.

  • Good. Fuck Butt Fart Texas. Books should not be censored for words. I remember a teacher in maybe 7th grade reading a book outloud with the word fuck in it, and he just said it and kept reading, he.knew the book well. I gained a lot of respect for that teacher and listened to him because I felt like he wasn't going to censor what he taught us.

  • I'll add, as a minority there are neighborhoods that are off limits because I know I would not be accepted, and, I have an "ethnic" name, so I assume some bias may be held towards people selling in neighborhoods like that.

  • Gotta keep the community pure.

  • It's far enough that recording clear video in darker settings would be harder since most zoom lenses suck in low light. Audio would be harder to pickup as well.
