1 hour agosomeone else on lemmy gave me the realization that soft fascism is baked into western culture and no one is immune to propaganda, so we’re all always in danger of going off the far end.

my version of touching grass are the community bottoms in my city and the rest of your comment sounds more like bio or eco-fascism than misanthropy.
3·2 hours agothis woman (unwittingly) defined my childhood and it’s somehow fitting that i learn of her death not longer after i’ve learned about my own mortality.
3·2 hours agosources that freely admit to being propaganda are much more reliable that sources that claim to be neutral, but can be proven to be propaganda like cnn, npr, fox, new york times, bbc, le monde, der spiegel, etc.
i always thought that mou’s preceded negotiations.
T-Mobile
that explains it. for some reason, tmobile is more flexible than the other carriers; but experience w my chinese phones teaches me not to rely on that flexibility.
i came here to post this and of course someone beat me to it. lol
it’s going to be fascinating – and probably not in a good way – to watch our self-reinforcing western propaganda do battle with these intrinsic realities.
part of me is glad that i won’t be alive to see it.
most latin-americans do consider themselves to be white, but they’re no where close to white by global north standards.
the bourgeoisie of all latin-americans countries are over-represented by white passing people and that’s the only way i can image argentinians being considered honorary whites.
depends on where you draw the line.
in the past, i’ve been mildly dissapointed by the drama-queen-esque antics of the kernel developers; but i most recently DEEPLY disappointed by how thoroughly the kernel developers to caved to the us gov’t’s demand to kick out russian developers instead of complying maliciously like others do.
both are separate from linux, but linux can’t exist without them.
seems to be a weird way of finding out that argentinians are higher up on the fascism hierarchy than egyptians; i always assumed that all brown people were at the same level.
21·3 hours agothey still do; just go somewhere where there isn’t a single white face nor english spoken and you’ll see kids get beat again for stepping out of line.
i wonder if this is the worse way for liberals to realize what environment they actually live in.
… it is a pretty traditional thing in the collapse stage of empires.
it really goes to show that capitalism hasn’t broken the cycle since it shares the same fatal patterns as the empires that collapsed before it.
plus the size of the skull. lol
9·1 day agofinally, an explanation for what the white helmets are and in a post that has no mention of white helmets no less. lol
1·1 day agowhat does it say when the same few dozen tv actors seem to be game of casting musical chairs?
same here and the thing that stings the most for me is the living proof of leftist progress right at our southern border. it directly refutes the neoliberal myths we keep feeding each other and keep us trapped under the control of the epstein oligarchy.
also there’s history: all of mexico’s reform attempts have been reversed by either the united states or europe before and i expect this time around to be no different since it’s currently already happening in the rest of latin america.
it makes me wish i’d learned gramsci’s “pessimism of the intellect, optimism of the will” before bothering with any other piece of leftist literature – we western doomscrollers need that more than anything else rn.
