  • You know what? Fuck it! GIVE ME THE GMO SALT!

    Jump

  • This was my suspicion too. Their page and Amazon (illegally) suggest salt is the only ingredient, but the Walmart listing show it contains Sodium ferrocyanide.

    My own safety concerns aside (this stuff literally degrades into (a small, but not insignificant amount of) deadly hydrogen cyanide gas in your stomach), it is made purely of mined and petro-derived chemicals. No organic production method is used these days.

    So aye, it seems the 'non-GMO' is in fact meaningless in this case.

  • what a coincidence

  • It's just strong evidence that 24/7 footage of most streets is clearly widely available. Doorbell cameras have become effective universal surveillance that effectively anyone can view.

    Okay but I need to live, so I'll buy like the cheapest meat and like something to help my stomach survive this gruel I'm forced to endure

  • I appreciate we can agree on the NATO wrongdoings, that's cool, thank you.

    I'm not saying Russia never tortured or cremated anybody. Every party to this conflict has done that in the droves. But it's disingenuous to imply that peace under Russia means exceptional mass torture and death squads. "Peace" before Russia invaded was 8 years of civil war where Ukraine killed its own civilians with artillery every day.

    Elections under the Ukrainian boot are no good either. Democratic parties were (and are) frequently made illegal on spurious grounds, corruption is rife, heck, the elected president got ruddy coup'd not that long ago. We certainly hear of more publicised political killings in Russia than in the west, what the truth is I don't know, but I think the chasm in difference of democratic 'quality' is a lot less than we care to tell ourselves.

  • Don't you understand we have to reach across the aisle to achieve progress? Even if doing that means we're actually regressing. Also even though the Good Guy team is in power the problem is that they're not in power enough to do anything so the only choice is to go rightwards

  • I don't see NATO wading into Ukraine wanting to torture and kill people.

    NATO waded into Afghanistan and Iraq and killed two million civilians. NATO is funding and participating in an ongoing genocide. They've killed many, many more. Guantanamo Bay is an illegal torture facility, there are undoubtedly hundreds more we haven't heard of. The downfall of its hegemony would see the lives of millions of people saved globally.

    Russian peace means russian torture chambers and mobile crematoriums for Ukranian opposition. Followed by generations of autocracy.

    What makes you say that? You must understand that's a cartoonishly unreal accusation, right? Yeah, Russian democracy sucks, but not meaningfully moreso than Ukrainian or most Western democracies.

    Fighting for the re-conquering and oppression of the eastern half of Ukraine (i.e. DPR and LPR), oppressing Russophones and continuing to explicitly deny the regions a right to self-determination. Zelenskyy already admitted they would not vote to stay part of Ukraine given the chance. That will not be a happy outcome for a lot of people either.

  • How Britain plotted to spread homophobia in Cuba | The Foreign Office launched covert operations against Fidel Castro’s government in Cuba after it took power in a popular revolution in 1959

    Jump

  • Interesting, I frequently heard as a UK child that "you shouldn't like Che Guevara because he killed people for being gay". Sounds like that myth may literally have originated as official disinformation propaganda.

    Jump

  • Nobody here thinks Putin is a communist, he's a capitalist bastard, but he is the lesser evil opposing the even bigger imperialist entity known as NATO.

    How is it "good news" that the Ukrainian war will keep being supplied and enable people to keep dying pointlessly for a long time yet?

    The only real '"good" development here would be one that sees immediate and serious peace negotiations; instead of throwing Ukrainians into a blender for the sake of global posturing while shouting "Putler".

  • Socialists are just jealous of rich people unless they have money in which case they're hypocrites

    The next election is already the most 15th most important one in our lifetimes in a row and it's still 2.5 years away. It's been a couple hundred years of vote blue no matter who but any day now we'll be allowed to vote for our real choice of party right?

  • Shah-loving diasporoids when a supposed Constitutional Monarchy is actually constitutional

    Jump

  • A few times in the 19th and 20th centuries, the UK monarch has appointed a PM without a corresponding election or Parliamentary vote. But only in the 1800s did they specifically go against a vote.

    As you say, they still exercise their power in very real, other ways. The UK monarch has been shown to secretly vet, veto and amend laws all the time, at least around a thousand over the past few decades. And those are just the times we've found out.

  • we would definitely see the Crown testing its powers if a leftist government ever got in

    We certainly saw the Crown test a lot of unofficial powers when Corbyn, an anti-monarchist, was a potential PM.

  • China has planted so many trees around the Taklamakan Desert that it's turned this 'biological void' into a carbon sink

    Jump

  • I am once again stating that deserts are incredibly important biomes that contribute to the existence of fertility of green areas world-wide. We need deserts for actual global sustainability with the ecosystem we have now, they are hubs for global distribution of minerals that all life needs.

    The Amazon rainforest would be significantly diminished if the Sahara desert were to be 'green'ed tomorrow. We can't just eliminate deserts willy-nilly and claim we have done a good thing.

    However, China is for the most part doing re-forestation, rather than converting areas that were always deserts. So it's not a real issue in this case. This program in fact, seems to have been ongoing since 1978 to prevent further desertification. So it's Ws all the way down in terms of their actual strategy.

  • Given what the average person has fallen for to-date, I don't share your optimism on this. Democrats openly and explicitly supported an ongoing genocide last election, I fail to see how much further there is to fall.

  • No, thanks. I will rather have the REAL PATRIOTS spy on me.
