How do you feel about the following statement:

Black people are the Amerikkkan version of Brazilian favelados.

See how it’s reducing an entire ethnic group to a specific socio-economic and cultural subgroup?

Imagine coming up to some educated person with a normal job that looks vaguely like a northern Indian and telling them they’re the European equivalent of the homeless in the USA. Or saying something like “black people are the Amerikkkan version of Brazilian favelados”.

And I’ve only seen that desire to kill them with literal Nazis. There are a lot of ways my government is trying to help them break their generational cycle of poverty and suffering. For example in my country universities have separate entrance exams and scholarships for Romani. Hell, it’s even pretty much traditional to invite gipsy musicians when celebrating big stuff like weddings and children being born.

It can be, but it’s not really. It’s just the name for the culture, while Rom/Roma is the name for the ethnicity and literally means human. There’s a reason why they popularised phrases like “gypsies also have souls”.

The actual slurs are derived from the word gipsy.

Think of it like extremist religious communities. Sure, gypsies support each other, but they’re also generationally perpetuating their way of living. For example even if they get a chance to attend schools they often get pulled out by their parents to get married and/or start working before they finish primary education. They live in tightly knit communities, speak their own language that’s completely separate from the local one, and live in a drastically different culture.

In other words, your friends and relatives will help you to raise your five children, but your parents are the reason you started having them at fourteen and why you can barely speak the language of the country you’re living in.

It’s pretty fucked up all around, especially when you consider the fact that they had to call themselves “human” in their own language (rom), and popularise phrases like “gypsies also have souls”.

Keep in mind that there are ethnically Romani, and culturally Romani otherwise known as gypsies. Equating them just based on their ancestry, or comparing an entire ethnic group to the homeless is pretty racist.

There’s always a chance I messed up, but afaik it was tumbleweed. Although I was looking for some programming and niche packages, not something popular like Firefox.

From what I’ve seen it’s far from bleeding edge. A few months ago I compared it to other rolling release distros and it was by far the most out of date.

Do remind me what were their victory conditions.

To me they look like: destabilise the region, sell military tech, build bases, establish puppets, plunder resources, repeat.

Everything else is just marketing

And to be very clear, ethical principles are subjective. There is no objectively right or wrong thing as far nature is concerned.

Deonotlogists and other Moral Realists and Universalists are shook

But yeah, let’s imagine moral ontology was solved, and that moral relativism and nihilism are the only ethical theories around…

its like that everyone that comes to the united states from a communist country forgets the values of marxism, socialism, and communism

Do you think anyone moving to the USA knows and respects those values? If they did, they wouldn’t be going there…

My friend, read the thread. You’re getting triggered over someone laughing at the idea of westerners hosting web content in China to escape censorship.

That’s really cool. Thanks for the info

There are like 20+ choices, most of them in coalition with the leading party, others are nominally opposed, but taking a cut to be quiet and not rock the boat.

I wouldn’t live in China, but I also wouldn’t ever live in the USA. Yugoslavian countries are more than enough for me…

Ok, that’s pretty amazing. Thanks for the info. I’ll be sure to give it a try when I come back.

I got a new testament that way from some Gideonites (?). They came outside of my university (extremely leftist and atheist) and gave them out to anyone who wanted one.

Ok that makes a lot more sense. Thanks for the explanation.

Yeah, the sandy overloading the brain totally makes sense.

Thanks for the explanation, but my headcannon is going to keep it as corpo propaganda.

If I remember correctly, he was going psycho long before that. Going for that exo was already a suicide run. But his original implant does make sense to fry the brain as it overclocks the brain.

The governance of China? It’d be pretty cool to own it as physical books, but do you really think the consulate would sell it to me?

Have you checked this out?

I’ve got a metal leg so my brain is going psychotic. What?!?

That’s on the level of “this Mexican smoked a single marijuana and went into a psychotic rage, killing and raping white women across the country”

My European country is currently the definition of corruption, I can and have criticized and protested against the regime, and I can vote freely. The only issue is that the position and opposition are working together…
