  • US military launches anti-drug trafficking operation in Ecuador | CNN Politics

    Jump

  • Hopefully no Ecuadorians get caught in the crossfire between the US military invaders and the CIA/DEA drug runners.

  • How will the revolution deal with narcissitic and psychocapathic individuals?

    Jump

  • I think so too. I would add that a lot of the asocial behaviours we see today are not inherent mental disorders but rather learned and societally rewarded and selected behaviours. When society is structured differently these "adaptations" go away, as the material conditions from which they arise no longer exist.

    I've also seen the thesis that a socialist society can tolerate and integrate at least some people with selfish motivations because the system itself doesn't allow for the enrichment of one at the expense of many. So even with selfish desires one ends up contributing to society and the damage is at least limited.

  • NASA announces major overhaul of Artemis moon program: “We’ve got to get back to basics”. Seems like it's all but guaranteed that China will beat the US back to the moon now.

    Jump

  • NASA could start by building a modern rocket, not a hacky assortment of spare parts left over from the Shuttle program and designed in the 1970s. But it's not about going to the moon, it's about giving the military industrial complex more money.

    Nobody even knows how to build the RS-25 engines anymore. There's a handful not at the bottom of the ocean and they're somehow supposed to take whitey to the moon.

    So the US will lose the "race" it unilaterally declared. Just like the last time.

  • You Really Don't Despise NATO Enough...

    Jump

  • But Munich also showed that Trump hasn't at all destroyed the transatlantic alliance.

  • "It's an explanation not an excuse" is a pointless nothingburger of a platitude

    Jump

  • I have also really struggled with this phrase or concept in my life. Especially as a kid, I would get in trouble for one thing or another and would try to explain my thoughts or actions to try to create some understanding only to be cut off for making excuses. I probably learned some negative patterns from that.

  • Live Updates: Former Prince Andrew Arrested in Britain Over Epstein Ties

    Jump

  • Because PM Starmer is facing a public backlash to Andrew and other UK elites being mixed up in the recent document dumps. It's not for justice, it's to save face.

  • Majority of CEOs Alarmed as AI Delivers No Financial Returns

    Jump

  • Managers don't know shit.

  • So what's gonna happen when Trump dies (if he dies this year)?

    Jump

  • The liberals go back to brunch.

  • Why Apple Glues Batteries and China Builds Grids

    Jump

  • An anecdote and an ironic alternative use of the term waste-maker: there used to be glass recycling bins next to my most-frequented supermarket. A few years ago they have been replaced with Tesla charging stations. The next glass bins are two kilometers away and not at all convienient, while Musk garbage takes up an ideal location.

  • Is Rammstein's "Du Hast" really not about German reunification?

    Jump

  • Could be, but since (west) Germans have to reflexively denounce the DDR every time it comes up I don't see anyone else making that connection, even after a couple searches.

    Another note on Rammstein: the frontman has been relatively recently accused of SA.

  • Can you add this book to Library?

  • NSFW

    This has to be parody, right? Surely it is impossible to be THIS mentally cucked?

    Jump

  • Nah there are actually people like this.

  • I just saw a large passenger plane escorted by a whole squad of fighter jets in formation. Edit: Mystery solved not civilian, B-1 bomber for the superbowl flyover (picture from reddit)

    Jacobin supports US attacks on Iran

    Jump

  • This guy also thinks imperialism is when countries fight, and it's not possible for one nation to take advantage of another.

  • Solarpunk

    Jump

  • Sounds a lot like democratic centralism.

  • NSFW

    Communism is when fish

    Jump

  • This book is awful but it's not because it's communist.

    I liked it as a kid too but now that I am an adult and have learned a bit about social justice I realize it's not a good book for kids to be learning from.

  • Kaja Kallas: "I don't think there is anything that we can offer to Russia"

    Jump

  • IIRC Kallas herself said the current political situation in Europe is driving her to drink.

  • Luigi Mangione will not face death penalty after US judge dismisses murder charge

    Jump

  • She also said the contents [of the backpack] would have been discovered inevitably through a federal search warrant.

    Coulda woulda shoulda.

    If that sets a precedent (or already is one), goodbye due process and any charade of protection from searches by law enforcement.

    In school I learned that just because a warrant would very likely be granted doesn't mean the police can skip that step.

    But as we know the rule of law means the rule of the legal system over the lower classes.
