One of my co-workers had a negative interaction with an Indian man and went “this is why I don’t like Indian people” I was just flabbergasted. It sucks because I know a lot of it was how she was raised and where she is from.

Most people immigrating aren’t freahly 18 even if they were able to keep up with the population decline. Yes there are people on student visas but it’s less than half the number of H1B visas.

I don’t love this argument and I think it comes down to - and maybe this is an elitist anti-populist argument or whatever but, like consequentially - one could say about Walmart that Walmart didn’t destroy small-town American main streets, consumer preferences did. And of course, this is loosely speaking true, but this is tangentially similar to “Fentanyl didn’t ruin small-town America, consumer preferences did.”

Maybe a hot take but from everything I’ve seen zelensky has a decent head on his shoulders. It seems incredibly likely to me hes trying to press trumps buttons in a way that make him step in even if it’s not what he would do otherwise. I think it’s worth trying at the very least when trump is showing signs of moving away from putin.

Bold of you to assume the best of a fascist government.

I mean arguably Columbia is perfectly mantaining its legacy.

I still can’t belive that he fucking sued LMAO.

There’s a lot more to it. If you’re not using/contributing to hyprland it’s a rabithole I don’t recommend going for time reasons.

I don’t even think it’s used in academia aside from linguistics. It’s a legitimatly dead character like æ.

To be clear I actually have had very positive interactions with 99% of .ca. And I don’t think that the admins are behind it, I genuinely think there is a group trying to sour usaians perception of canadians. I’ll DM you some examples as soon as I get a chance to go through my voting and block history but it might be a bit because I’m working 12s until sunday and I want to give you actual good examples not just people that happen to be dicks on .ca.

I’m 90% sure they are being sarcastic and talking about how people keep saying people on the left should just focus on getting rid of trump like that itself would solve the things that caused him to be elected.

Tracing is absolutely art. You choose what to trace what parts of the image are important what to discard etc.

If I didn’t know any better I would think there is a larger motive behind all the very blatant trolls that keep popping up on .ca.

Its NYT, they would throw everyone the fascists are after into the camps personally to mantian their false narrative of “neutrality”.

The US has expertly constructed a system where the few ways that you could theoretically increase your class would also lead to a complete moral compromise. Its really unfortunate because jobs like police officer and military are super low skill and relatively high pay but they require you to make yourself an ally to the fascist state.

The problem with that is that the threadiverse(?) Is still small enough that dividing it in half means you’ve reduced engagement by far more than that. Let alone having 5 different communities with the same tooic. Piefed handles Cross-Posts way better though so it’s less of an issue for me now that it was on Lemmy.

Hell look at the UK. Arguably been spearheading the charge in a lot of ways for other fascist countries to follow the path of.

I’ve heard people talk about frendica but I have no clue if it’s any good. I think it’s meant to be a way to connect to people you know in passing IRL. Or that’s how I’ve seen it be used.

Borderlands 4. Max leveled vex last week and am on the grind for gear now. Not a huge fan of the level of rarity of legendary gear tbh. It’s fine when you’re not looking for perfect rolls but if you are its kinda bullshit.

This video is a great explanation from someone that was actually involved in dark matter research.
