I know a nice middle aged mum whose house was raided by whatever the Australian SWAT team calls themselves at 2am. She’s basically considered a public enemy by the government. And the worst she’s ever been accused of is blocking traffic and using water-soluble spray chalk on buildings.

Marx isn’t the only communist philosopher

Well I think it’s communism

How does a scientist measure whether a machine is thinking?

When I watch a movie, the credits roll at the end. I can look up the actors on IMDb. Even if I pirated it, I know who made it. That’s how I know Rian Johnson is a good director and I should watch anything he makes.

AI can’t name its inspiration.

No, I got banned for criticising Zionism, and it was really clear I wasn’t attacking Jews, because I said zionism is antisemitic.

I got banned from that community for saying zionism is antisemitic. The mods called it “rage bait”.

I was actually testing whether the mods are zionists, and since they were enraged by my post, I think they are.

Does Revolt have screen sharing yet?

Immutables are too hard for me. I prefer the simplicity of apt.

I’m a communist and I think we should have a stateless society.

Being a citizen of a country means that your government should represent you and your interests.

I’m interested in everyone’s wellbeing. Also, the government should represent its citizens’ moral interests. It should teach them kindness by being an example.

Not letting foreigners into your country because you have a housing crisis is not irrational, it is a valid reason.

Not valid. It’s discrimination.

And you think telling immigrants they’re not allowed to enter the country gives them more rights?

People aren’t zoo animals.

I’m pretty sure Mastodon is made of algorithms, mate

saying immigration needs to be lower due to a housing crisis will be called hate speech

Yeah, that’s kinda hateful. True, it really would make things easier for EU citizens if less people were using the limited housing. But it would make things harder for the immigrants. Putting citizens over immigrants is… xenophobia.

Why waste the government’s time solving the problem at poor people’s expense, when the government could instead tax rich people more to pay for housing?

I have nvidia, so Debian works better for gaming personally

But why, though? Why not just use the better distro directly?
