  • The U.S. Is Leaving Boat Strike Survivors to Drown

    Jump

  • I'm taking a bit of time out for myself for the next little while ... I've had some family loss that was very close to me and I'm taking time doing other things at the moment ... it's not anything or anyone that happened here on Lemmy or Piefed (they're all great communities) ... my life has just made a drastic change right now and I need to take care of myself for a while ... I'll be back later on but for the time being, I won't be around much if at all.

    I still love this space and everyone in it ... I just need to take some time for myself right now.

  • During the worst of the fighting in WWII, allied ships when they could still took the time to pick up and rescue enemy sailors in the water.

    So I guess, unless you are able to give a Nazi war salute to the German Fuhrer, you might have a chance of being rescued.

  • Same with the Trans issue ... or anything to do with sexuality ... anyone who is sexually different only occupies about 10% of the population yet politicians have to treat it like some kind of mania.

    The most troublesome minority group in the world are rich wealthy oligarchs from all nations.

  • Are you kidding ... my best hope is the American people because they are the ones who can change this at any time ... but none of them so so it means that there is no hope ... in 2026, 2028 or any other year, until the American mentality changes.

  • Boycotting and protesting with your money also works

    If everyone just organized together and said ... 'hey, let's boycott this one company and just this one company' .. and everyone did it, it would drive that one company to its knees and bankrupt it and even drive it out of business.

    It wouldn't affect most people terribly ... we'd still be able to shop, go around do things and go about our lives without much disruption ... but at the same time, it would scare the shit out of that one company.

    Once one company gets destroyed, then everyone organize again and target another company and boycott them ... then just keep the ball rolling and keep boycotting and driving out companies one at a time. After a month of doing this, every major company would be shitting their pants knowing that they would be next on the list.

    These assholes don't understand if you hold a sign up that says you dislike them .... they never listen to that ... but if a large enough group of us just stood back and withheld our money from them and told them to go fuck themselves, then they'd listen.

  • Fuel shortage forces Gaza hospital to halt services as Israeli siege deepens

    Jump

  • This is getting stupid .... every Gaza headline is becoming the same ... more crisis for Gaza and Israel continues siege, operations, attacks, hits, bombings, movements

    When is the world going to get shocked or surprised by all this .... when Israel starts using flame throwers, beating people with hammers, and poking their eyes out?

    This isn't an Israeli problem ... it's a world problem ... between Israel and the US just doing whatever they want without any responsibility or being held accountable for anything ... why they hell do we pretend that there is any kind of international rule of law?

    The more headlines I see like this everyday .. makes me think that there is no such thing as a United Nations ... it's a nice organization that makes everyone feel good but it has not function other than to assemble a bunch of politicians and representatives in fancy offices to do absolutely nothing.

  • Lucky you ... I'm up in northern Ontario and in most of the places up here Sudbury/Timmins/New Liskeard/North Bay ... the supply seems to have dried up over the years ... we used to see lots, now we see a lot less.

  • Sadly true

  • The FBI criticized the film for being communist .... you know why?

    Because it depicted the bankers as evil

    Take note of that, the government had more to say about how banking and finance were depicted than in thinking about how it depicted common people.

  • Generally the fediverse on lemmy, piefed and mastodon for me .... lots more out there and it's fun to explore new branches and directions of the fediverse and the communities of people they attract.

    It's daunting, challenging, confusing and complex .... but that's the beauty of it .... it feels like wandering around and exploring the early social media internet from the early 2000s and this strange feeling that its going to become a whole lot more as time goes on.

  • No it doesn't, they won't change their tune until you tie them down onto a guillotine and threaten to release the blade ..... and even then they'd probably try to coerece or bribe you from doing it.

  • Trading in existing items is not exactly capitalism ... that's just plain old bartering.

    Capitalism, especially the modern form, is when you use your existing or inherited wealth to buy or develop companies who generate wealth from the work of other people to create brand new products or services. It's exploitative because capitalists take the hard work of many people who create brand new products and then claim full or majority ownership over those products without having done anything except claim ownership.

    What you are doing is taking old discarded things that either have no more value or lesser value and taking your own effort and time to recreate value and barter it to someone else. The only person you've exploited in the transaction is yourself ... but you reap all the benefit. And no one can go back and say that the product that you just traded is stolen profit from the previous owner ... the previous owner had thrown it away and didn't value it any more or even considered it trash to be thrown away.

    Flipping isn't capitalism ... it's just good economic sense for the individual.

    Unless you turn it all into a multimillion dollar business with employees, real estate and a corporation ... it isn't capitalism.

  • China says US broke international law by seizing oil tankers off Venezuela

    Jump

  • I'm no supporter of China ... nor the US ... nor Russia ... nor the UK

    But if you change the country names to these headlines, it makes you question why we accept some things and not others

    "China seizes oil tanker off Philippines"

    The world would go insane and send us to near WWIII if not the start of it .... but change it to 'US seizes oil tanker off Venezuela', and all of a sudden it is acceptable.

  • Italians at Christmas

    Jump

  • Here in Canada in Ontario, up until about five years ago, they used to sell panettone everywhere during Christmas ... grocers used to stock them everywhere and about four or five different brands. Cheaper ones came in all plastic wrapping and more expensive ones came wrapped in plastic and contained in fancy decorative cardboard boxes. And back then, we had the choice of size and they were usually large sized.

    Now we have limited supplies and the displays for them are even hard to find. We only have one brand now 'Massimo' and they are more the smaller size. Every year now, all my Italian Canadian friends go on a frenzy looking for them ... as soon as they come out, they disappear.

    Don't know what happened to the supply but we don't see much of them any more.

  • Lol America

    They accuse a democrat with these charges any time and the news media, government and the public literally stops as everyone shows their outrage.

    Accuse Trump of similar things and the country just chalks it up to the list of shit he's done that no one cares about.

    None of this is a Trump problem ... it's an American problem.
