Very late here but thank you for the post

He was part of the land team

It was known for days that he wasn’t on the boat

Is it hipocrisy tho?

Like if you say to someone that says that we shouldn’t use single use plastics for food, that they still use single use plastics for their surgery, that’s not hipocrisy. Context matters.

Of course she isn’t going to deliver critical aid to where a genocide is happening via bicycle

Yes but for us reading the story it’s irrelevant if he received a WhatsApp, signal or SMS message

Thank you for your work

I wish to subscribe to more anti pasta info

I’ll have the panda one now if you have time

Fuck yea!

I mean I don’t either and probably if I didn’t I wouldn’t have the same findings, but that’s what the statistics say for the western world at least

I see XD

I feel like most rich people would reject 1000$ if that meant a poor person got 500$.

I used to believe the first line in your comment but the new generation is swinging further right than their parents (mostly male). So now I’m not so sure

Have you considered that those things aren’t done not because of stupidity but because a small subset of society that holds most of the political power and media benefits from those things being done?

The system isn’t flawed in the sense that it doesn’t work. It does. Extremely well. It just doesn’t work for you and me or to make everyone’s lives better.

You know Lemmy is getting good when you have comments like this

Like how the fuck do you know so much about koalas? It’s a rethorical question mostly. Thank you for sharing :)

Yea

People could still be famous for being good actors, make good music or play sports well

They just wouldn’t be incredibly rich or multiple orders of magnitude richer than the common person

Hence why he said about

9750 ~ 10k

There’s definitely education (or lack there of) and propaganda, but the main issue is wealth inequality in this neo liberal, capitalist world

Wages have stagnated and everything is much more expensive. The quality of life of the majority of the population is massively worse than before. Yes we have cool gadgets and better healthcare due to technological advancements but the crux of the matter is that exploitation is tru the roof. People work 2 and 3 jobs and can’t make ends meet. Meanwhile billionaires get richer and richer in increasing pace.

Public services get cut, people get ask to pull themselves up by their bootstraps and they look for someone to blame and are told to look down (to immigrants) instead of up (to the ultra rich).

Valve will even allow developers to create their own Steam keys free of charge and sell them wherever they want with no commission whatsoever

That’s pretty open I’d say

That seems great! I’ll definitely check it out

Any communities here on Lemmy that you’d also recommend?

And thank you once again!

So as a leftist that I think identifies with Marxist-Leninist ideology but that didn’t find the communist manifesto an interesting nor easy read (it was small but not really approachable) are there any books that you recommend? I’m no economist but I do like reading logical arguments as to why capitalism doesn’t work, or better said, doesn’t work for the good of the majority but instead for a small minority (for whom it works very very well)

Russia doesn’t want WW3

They’d get proper fucked. I mean we all would but they’d have no chance.

They play that card because it’s the only card they have and because Europe is happy with the status quo

Trump was trying to fleece Ukraine for parts and Europe did fuck all

See my other comment.

Russia can’t even conquer Ukraine after 3 years. They are only a bully to the little guys.

Europe could easily demolish Russia and their old and tired military. I’m not saying that europe should invade Russia. Ofc not. But this Putin bluff is long gone. And ofc it’s Russia that can end this anytime they want but until they are forced to they won’t. Which bully do you know that returned the lunch money that they stole out of what? Compassion? Just because it’s wrong?

And you are talking about WW3 but the EU is planning to triple their defence budget in preparation for war, so you tell me who wants WW3
