… So what like a shitty laptop from 2009, a broadband connection and a full bottle of vodka as pay?

Oh man group think is really bad on Lemmy. If you are being downvoted you must have deserved it and the downvotea keep coming and upvoted means right and so upvoted. It’s all initial inertia.

Echo chambers work really fast here I have found.

LOL yeah I know. They actually are helpful for any developed country but seeing a document of a list of 34,000 dead humans from newborns to “old” that Palestine is trying to prove were real by using the identification numbers and knowing how Israel uses their labor force and tracks them made me feel the parallels to a historical use, a little heavily.

I kinda figured they should just go all the way with it.

And there you go just putting emphasis on that. As if you can forceably simplify the issue to racism.

Whatever. I called you out. Any further growth is on you.

Good use of buzzwords there. Could hear the Trump in your brain. Best words.

Oh man and we wonder why the liberal arguments aren’t winning over struggling low class Americans in suburban towns.

Yeah, I understand you don’t give a shit, that’s my point.
You don’t even care to deal with the actual story and meat of an issue before hand waving it away and blaming racism that makes you feel superior while having done nothing not even think about the actual people involved.

It makes you useless as even an empathetic ear which is bare minimum people usually want.

You aren’t superior for this stance.

I’m just not ignoring that over the course of 3 years the population increased by 30% from a specific demographic that are not permanent citizens. Being used as a labor force for companies that demanded new cheap labor.

Again you are simplifying this down in the same conversation they are simply because it’s easier and more fun than the reality of what’s going in Ohio. Its rumors started to take advantage of a legitimate concern that doesn’t get simplified down to just people opening an ethnic cuisine restaurant because it’s a nice way to reduce down your opponents idiocracy.

It just makes you willingly ignorant and dismissive and with an agenda like them.

I am seeing it. I’m just not ignoring that there is in fact an interesting base for all this in order to focus on the part the racists without policy are using to push their agenda and that the liberals are ignoring cause it’s complicated and easier to focus on the racists attempt to use to belittle them without doing anything.

Oh man, every Palestinian had an ID number? Man those could have just been tattooed on every person to make sure Israel could keep track of them better.

No idea why Israel didn’t think of that. Seems obvious to use in your fenced in area that everyone has to be carefully released from for either work or because they died.

No it started with a hodunk town being stressed by its changing landscape that is putting stress on its local residents and the Haitians that are moving there creating a powder keg of stressed resources like housing, traffic and jobs, being used as a political tool.

I understand that people are using this to use to point at generalized black people and racism (just look at you) but there is a legitimate story and starting seed for this that starts before the pandering that is happening now.

Problems can exist before you see the smoke and the problem is not the smoke but the potential fire that somehow does seem to be ignored by everyone who’d rather talk around it.

Dude, I get this so much.

I love making food. I think it’s delicious and maybe my photography skills aren’t amazing but I will share it anyways.

Nope! Not allowed unless you make nearly fake looking food with a studio set up that makes me bet it’s cold before they even take a bite and throw it away.

I got so much hate for posting a picture of god damn poutine that I truly think the food snobs deserve to starve.

Uhh no.

I mean it is literally about Haitians though, as the city of Springfield Ohio already had been incentivizing cheap import labor to take over for the American labor that had left and wouldn’t work for low wages.

Literally, a guaranteed work status and easy entry because of destabilizing forces in Haiti has meant a huge influx to the point that now more than 1 in 4 residents in Springfield are in fact Haitian.

It doesn’t mean that outlandish stories to create fear and tension are a good idea but just casually changing the details to say it’s about black people is you also trying to push a narrative on a struggling city with many real issues that are its own.

Yeah, the people leading the “AGI will save us” are the same as super church pastors.
They don’t believe it, they just want their bank account limitless before they go into oblivion.

The oil refinery row used to really have a smell.

But Delaware sucks so much.

Oh heck yeah. That sounds like something I would like.

I’m a sucker for variations of French 75s and this honestly sounds similar.

Probably helps if you don’t pour out the coconut water first.

Japanese whiskey Highballs

Using a nice Sakura cask whiskey and a spoonful of simple just to enjoy it better.

half the time of the monkeys

So are we saying the Lemurs are smarter or dumber for bring back the humans in that amount of time?

Hmm… Is that true? It’s not like smoking bans are actually all encompassing its still mostly local precident and business decisions.
I am not sure I have seen someone smoke weed where they couldn’t smoke a cigarette, or where banned a cigarette smoker might illegally light up anyways, other than vapes which are still also in high contention and not exactly banned.

I think you just have a stigma and an axe to grind that specifically singles them out because of a internal problem you have.

Anyways, good luck with that.

Its so fricking hard to find the trustworthy brands.

I’m honestly just so willing to not have any brand loyalty and to suffer with making a bad pick that I have to return or fix myself, I constantly having to re-find what is considered actually good quality.

The answer is a lot of name brand in the higher price range but not so high that it’s just for padding a contractor’s quote and percent take home is still good quality. And you can never go for the same model twice if the company is doing constant refreshes cause those are with cheaper components every time. (Allowance for first refresh fixing a flaw)

Yeah but name brands mean you buy it once and it doesn’t fail as often, is the argument for that I get from those of that generation.

And I mean I get it. Buy a cheap pair of shoes or a good pair and you will realize you will go through 3 of the cheap pairs at half price compared to buying 1 good pair.

Though less so with each passing year since name brands are designed to fail now too.
