21·23 hours agoUS workers are experiencing a 2008-style economic crisis (for at least a few years now), with low hiring, high rents, high evictions, and layoffs, and its just completely ignored by US state media.
They built in enough protections to isolate the real economy (jobs and living expenses) from the fake one (stock market and financial speculation), and re-defined the terms used for economic health, to be able to completely ignore it.
democracy
You mean capitalist dictatorship / rule by the rich. We should not allow the liberals to call their sham system / theatre piece of stacked elections picked by the rich, a “democracy”.
There’s another extensive US forest service bird program everyone should check out called Operation Condor
17·2 days agoIncredible things are happening with termux.
He dropped like 80 drone bombs on 9 middle-east countries every day of his presidency, and empowered finance capital.
One saved Europe from Nazism, the other dropped like 80 bombs on the middle east every day he was in office.
Peer tube uses webtorrents, which for many reasons haven’t caught on. It’s still mainly centralized nodes with massive hosting costs. Torrents are the fully decentralized answer.
Most of the channels I know ask for donations via patreon or other funding platforms. I don’t think youtube pays much except for maybe the top 1% of slop channels.
Every single youtube channel needs to start seeding torrents of their videos, and posting those links to other platforms (here, mastodon, etc).
Youtube / google could be defeated collectively if creators were to consistently do this, and interested people had the ability to help seed videos.
I also highly suggest Roxanne Dunbar-Ortiz - An indigenous people’s history of the US.
That and Sakai - Settlers, would probably make the overall 3 best comprehensive US history textbooks.
You have to kinda suspend your disbelief a little bit when watching the show, especially since its based in Los Angeles, in reality one of the most corrupt and racist police forces on the planet. IRL they would never go after rich socialites in the way Columbo does.
Luckily in the show there’s barely any presence from his higher ups, you get the feeling that they just let this magic murder-solving troll do his thing and never interfere.
I haven’t, but that sounds like my jam. Thx!
You’re clearly a unique thinker and not influenced at all by decades of anticommunist propaganda.

Life expectancy increased from 35 in 1949 to 65 in the 1970s when Mao’s rule came to an end.
Columbo’s specialty was taking down arrogant elite snobs, there’s never a shortage of them. He’d have the whole western pedophile plutocracy in prison within a few weeks if he was empowered to do so.
I’m begging someone with a good columbo meme stash to make a community here. I need more of them.
I need to read acres of skin . There is no country that can surpass the US’s crimes against humanity.
