How easily it is to normalize hate and violence to almost any human.

As a mod on a few garden and science subs at that time, they were pernacious and ethically inept. They would associate anything anti-pesticide or GMO with being an anti science quack. And they would dog pile on poor individuals expressing concern.

I had several debates with them, often reported them for brigading, and ultimately had to ban them.

Not to be contrarian, but the original sin of the US is the genocide of the indigenous populations.

And it's THE thing that few people want to confront.

As for hardware quality, I've had my Tab S5E for years, and it is super solid. It looks, feels, and sounds great. It's one of the few samsung devices that can be unlocked and Lineage installed on. So, if you're willing to put in the time to install Lineage on it, it's android 13 and the newest version of Lineage on it.

Fargin iceholes.

Just leave one of these on your headphones and you'll never know the difference.

You can set up a jellyfin client on the Dell and control it from anything else. Jellyfin has clients for Linux Windows and Android. Once set up you can output anything from anywhere and control any of them from each other.

Don't forget about dorks, geeks, and spazs. We're an inclusive community.

I just got one of these and it works quiet nicely.

No love for removable batteries?

Infinity Pool by David Cronenburg

and

Psycho Goreman. It's everything it should be and more, but doesn't pretend to be anything that it isn't.

I don't know how you can separate the idea of colonialism from the formation of the US. Seems arbitrary and without any philosophical basis.

As it stands currently, black Americans have better standards of living, in almost all developmental indices, than native Americans. So by any scientific inquiry, native Americans have had it and still have it much harder than black Americans.

Understood.

I'm simply trying to highlight that what happened to the native Americans is not simply "an aside," or a footnote in history but that it should take a sharp focus to what the US is or has been. This isn't about competing special interest group atrocities, but a fundamental question that is at the core of representative democracy. Too often liberal democracy is simply another way to exploit others, and disallow "other" groups from participating.

From a native perspective, living on a reservation in the US currently, it wouldn't matter much if it was run by republicans or democrats, as they both simply ignore treaties and obligations. From your perspective, it's a dire existential crises, but to those who have been swept aside both in the past and the present, it doesn't matter much at all.

It's an emergent environment ideal. We consume so many living organisms, the least we can do, is to leave some in the chute and extract everything from it before expelling it. Otherwise, we're just a pipeline of ecological destruction.
