Every accusations is admission when it comes to pro-fascist conservatives.

An indication that Taiwan would probably also be put through this sinicisation process Islamic Chinese cultures on the mainland are.

Sounds like if would be a good indie film if the right tensions were played right.

Rishi Sunak is the name of a skunk in a Disney movie… And if it’s not, it should be.

We need another FDR.

I just assumed that train on an answer sheet could probably get you past most tests.

Why not buy some under water drills and an underwater propulsion device then go down to the marina and sink some expensive yatchs? How about slashing some police tires?

Why not study an industry you wanna take down and figure out how? Or gather an online flash mob and invade a conservative website or institution. How about running for office at your local council? Or sending letters to good and bad politicians saying what you think. Contact the media about something you believe but make sure it’s the right level for what you’re saying.

Or go read some leftwing theory.

As a rule, files never get deleted… They get over written. So it depends on whether that process has happened to any loose images.

In a lost in the wilderness survival situation you probably want to scout the lay of the land from where you are, then follow the valleys to the nearest water source, or coast, as settlements are usually by the water.

It’s great that the two characters discuss this topic, I think it’s in the multi-part TNG episode where Ambassador Spock is creating a dissident movement on Romulus.

Yeah, but Data is actually intelligent and brilliant. ChatGPT is often just giving best averaged answers based on what’s most likely - and still hallucinates even in the latest version.

I haven’t used it, but it happens even in the demo they showed.

Technically he’s a Spock stand in: hyper logical but not quite getting humanity.

This characteristic… In fact lots of characteristics get shared and mix and matched across DS9, TNG, and Voyager.

In Voyager Seven of Nine and The Doctor are the “not quite understanding humanity” characters. In DS9, it’s Odo.

Ideally newer Trek would do this too, but it might also want to have:

A quirky or modded engineer: LaForge, O’Brien, Scotty, Be’lana.

A superior strength character: Spock, Data, Odo, Worf, Seven of Nine, Tuvok.

…and maybe a couple of psychic characters, Spock, Kes, Tuvok, Seven of Nine, Benjamin.

You’ll probably also need some mentally brilliant characters, a Klingon, and someone who doesn’t fit in due to a negative background and is jaded about it.

…a brilliant doctor helps too.

These characteristics are needed so you can write certain storyline types and stand alone episodes.

It’s a certain mentally that sometimes makes that change. Lyndon Larouche made the change and became a conspiracy theorist, as did Jordan Peterson.

It’s an interesting path, but sometimes it’s expressive of someone who feels betrayed by Western Democratic Liberalism as a whole (aka society). That kind of person is often an outsider, and outsiders can do some strange and sometimes even dangerous things.

Why does shitting your pants seem such an American phenomena? I’ve seen or heard about this activity through reddit a couple of times, and also on “people of walmart”.

Is it a dietary thing? A cultural thing? is it just because most media is American? What’s the deal America?

Why be a dick about it when you can just ignore them. Seems like they’re just trying to communicate in a way that’s generally experienced as nice.

Like I get it, it’s easy to get annoyed at people trying to “make” you participate in an imaginary and kinda lame social behaviour… But like, being a dick on purpose probably does you more damage than them

No one likes someone whose rude for the sake of being rude, or an edgelord, even being a contrarian just for the sake of it isn’t the greatest characteristic.

Better to find a stable calm attitude that doesn’t require that… And if it’s a way to blow off steam, better to find ways that are more in your own domain of control, rather than having it controlled by an external trigger.

Something to give thought to next time your driving jeep anyways.

OPs meme seems like the most accurate version I’ve seen in a long time.

I failed maths, but I’m great at logic, which I consider to be the more important proficiency for programming.

Relative to much of the world yes.

In terms of economics and neoliberalism mostly.

You’re more right than wrong.

In terms of social liberalism, the differences between the two parties are more noticeable.

This is because structural politics is defined by undemocratic means, interests, and forces.

So we vote on more superficial aspects, such as the culture war and social rights.

Which can be important, but most of the time aren’t the real meat of the world’s problems.

Progressives also disappoint me. The public not being Social Democrats is my main issue.
