- Comment on It’s Looking Like the Cybertruck Is the Biggest Flop in Automotive History 19 hours ago:
by the time the cybertruck started delivering, all pretense of who its maker really was was gone. no longer could you think of him as “just the electric car guy who was in the MCU that time and likes posting memes.” It was ABUNDANTLY obvious that he was a fascist boot heel. i can see any tesla on the road but the cybertuck and the model Y and rationalize that someone bought it without knowing, or sold it at a steep loss to someone who just needed a car. but the two newest models in the lineup? those directly funded fascism

thanks. i get these things mixed up some

so the other comment reply does nothing to explain, but there’s too much mis- and disinformation that people consume and too much prideful ignorance to just let a comment sit like this as the top of the “hot” algorithm to not give people an entry point to enlighten themselves.
dark matter is not named for its undetectibility within the visible light spectrum. you are correct that we cannot detect much matter within the universe based on the visible light spectrum. dark matter is named based on that we cannot detect it at all. dark matter is more the answer to a question we don’t yet know how to answer. there are a lot of behaviors out there in the cosmos that cannot be explained through the simple interactions between matter that we are able to observe, leading many scientists to theorize that much of the universe, around 70% of it, is made of a form of matter that interacts with the kind of matter we are by just kinda… pushing it away (not like anti matter which causes waveform collapses when interacting with the kind of matter we are).
a competing theory for why the cosmos acts the way it does is because space time itself is expanding as a result of our observable universe existing on the inside of a black hole. my estimation is probably that both explanations contain part of the truth and that the whole truth is that both dark matter exists and our universe is inside a blackhole. if you want a real mind trip, i suspect our universe is inside a blackhole inside our universe, and that every blackhole in the universe contains a universe. filled with blackholes with universes, including the very same universe that contains that blackhole

the worst thing about the second klan was it gave the founders of the third klan an opportunity to meet each other and go “oh! you’re a HUGE bigot, too?”
- Comment on Vegeta 1 week ago:
just be ready for what rises from the ashes. because it was from that collapse that the Indiana Klan reorganized into the group we know today

my great grandad was though. from the side of the family i never really much talked to because my dad wanted nothing to do with them after what they did to him in his upbringing

first of all:
- i would kiss this Vegeta
- i would kiss channing tatum
- also i’d kiss original recipe vegeta, but only after he got his life right. so like not original recipe but like… several arcs in

a coverup is considerably cheaper and less painful than a removal. also, a removal often comes with a lot of visible scarring so a coverup can end up being less noticable

hey at least he wasn’t a founding member of the third iteration of the klan (the current one)

ding ding ding! the existence of a jewish state is not just anti-semitic in the broad sense, it is anti-jewish in a narrow sense.
- antisemitism: the political position that jews have no place in this society
- zionism: the political position that jews have no place in this society
- Comment on Bob Vylan to sue BBC for defamation over Glastonbury coverage 3 weeks ago:
This is how fascism operates. it innundates you with the most insane bullshit until eventually you throw up your hands and leave the table, giving the fascist power over the narrative.
never think the anti-semites don’t know exactly what they’re doing and all the rest of that quote

the key ingredient is they don’t only sing about Jesus. See also: Red Jumpsuit Apparatus. Mainstream audiences don’t generally mind christian themes so long as that band is being true to themselves rather than making common denominator slop.
i mean… look at all the music that came from Motown records before 1985. not all of those musicians and acts were devoutly christian, but a lot of them were
- Comment on We produce more resources than we could ever consume in the least sustainable ways possible. 1 month ago:
okay. so. ecofascism ignores, or is ignorant of, the role that indigenous people played maintaining ecosystems and the overall climate of this world. they frame the tragedy of the commons as that a commonly shared resource will be overutilized by the community leading to the degredation and loss of that resource. given this, they believe that a top level force is required to protect that resource.
the flaw with this framing is that anthropologically, there is no evidence that the tragedy of the commons works this way. we have much more evidence of an ownership class overexploiting a resource than we do collaborative communities. the people, left to their own devices, will largely find solutions that will best fit all their needs, where as an ecofascist route will generally only allow the person commanding the economy to assess needs and they will do so with their set of biases and blindspots, leading to things like the famines of the 5 year plans and the great leap forward

ecofascism is an authoritarian approach to addressing global climate change. they believe that poor people are a strain upon the land and that left to their own devices humanity would destroy the planet out of spite.
often, they ignore the top heavy causes of climate change. i can elaborate now but i need to go to the store

yup! waaay to may r/atheist types replaced their religious upbringing with hero worship of dawkins and iefused to see what a problematic figure he really was

everything in nature has analagous structures. if you don’t see them you’re either looking too close or too far and you need to shift your perspective. a coral reef is a forest and the corals are the trees.
- Comment on I don't need any job 3 months ago:
Short answer: no
Long answer: Kind of, but not in any kind of a way to where a desire to unite is a position with mass popular support. A unified India as a political entity has been historically a rare thing, and mostly exists currently as a unified entity as a direct result of the British Raj. There are several territories and Tribes that seek independence from the Indian Republic. Two of those territories were Pakistan and Bangladesh (FKA Pakistan). There likely are residents of Pakistan who wish for re-unification with India, however per my understanding the prevalent notion is that Pakistan’s time within the unified India were not preferred. Ultimately this is a function of that borders can never be drawn with respect for the people who live on the land. There is no line you can draw between any two national cores where everyone who wants to be on one side of the line is on the side they want to be on. To use Poland as an example, in 1931, Lwow had a population of 312,000 people, making it the 4th largest city in Poland. Of those 312,000 people, ~20% self identified as Ukrainian. How do you draw a boundary line between Ukraine and Poland where all Ukrainians are in Ukraine and all Poles are in Poland when a city on their border is so blended?
Countering your example: It’s less like Pakistanis are like the Germans in Austria who can’t unite with Germany and more like Pakistanis are like the Austrians in Austria who found themselves in Germany after Germany declared them German.

Anarchists are a genre of libertarians though. It’s just that who dominates the landscape of “libertarian” is ancaps, who are just fascists with a weirder set of steps to implement a fascist nightmare.

I think us leftists in America need to put together a wrestling promotion further left than AEW. WWE is MAGA, AEW is DNC. We need a wrestling promotion equivalent of punk rock/actual leftists out in the streets doing things to communicate with the world what AEW and WWE miss about what goes on around here. I think it should be Luchadora inspired since the queer/femme scene in northern Mexico is really popping off right now

Man what a huge disappointment given I find nothing of value in streamer drama. I’m sure it’s entertaining if you’re into that sort of thing but if I wanted unlikeable people yelling at eachother while crowds of people who already knew who they wanted to win and didn’t really care what the actual outcome was watched, I’d go to a backyard pro wrestling promotion lol
To emphasize: not trying to yuck anyone’s yum, but I have so many people in life come to me like I for sure definitely have a favorite streamer when how I try to engage with streamers and their opinions on things is I don’t lol
