Who uses their phone to be just a phone these days?

I’d say the phone part is the least used of my phone.

No, no leftist is for privatized ownership of the means of production.

Even market socialists, an extremely niche group barely even worth mentioning still advocate for it public ownership of most things.

We do still believe in those solutions?

The left is not relative, nor has the meaning shifted in all this time.

The left is the same communists and anarchists it has been for over a hundred years world wide now.

Political party popularity does not change political ideological meaning.

And the American system doesn’t encourage duopoly, it literally enforces it. So yes, of course many leftists are going to feel disenfranchised after close to a century of being villainised and neglected by their “representatives”. The solution to that is for a party to adopt leftist ideals, but that goes against the interests of the ruling class who’s money and influence runs the game.

No. The left has a very clear political meaning, it does not simply mean “Whats less to the right”.

When leftists talk about leftist policies as solutions to issues, we dont mean “oh right wing policies but just not super right”.

Left —————| Middle |—A——B— Right

Tell me, what side of that spectrum do you think A is?

When has the left ever had power in the US? Labour in the UK had a bit post war, but they’ve since stopped being left.

You cant just call neolibs the left and complain that the left didnt do anything.

I estimate that this platform will last about two years.

Based on what? I too can pull a number out of my arse and estimate the platform will last exactly 18,345 years from today, that doesn’t actually mean anything.

Ill take soulless thanks. Those terrible icons need to stay in 2004.

Probably how the Orthodox felt after the great schism.

You mean all of them?

He goes into one of those dingy old PC stores that have walls crammed with dusty products that haven’t been sold in like 15-20 years and buys everything, even turns it into a bit of game with the owner where they roll a giant foam or play darts dice to see if he’s going to pay ridiculous prices for some of the products. Like many of these boxes are literally early 00’s tech that never moved and was just sitting there.

To be offended over that video is utterly ridiculous and it’s clearly all in good fun with the owner, who gets to avoid making a loss on stock he should’ve thrown out decades ago.

It kinda does if a judge has decided that an IP address does not identify who the offender was and thus is not enough evidence to bring a case against someone.

That’s why it does matter.

Even if they get the IP addrsss from an instance, they can’t use it for anything.

Food for though: In the US judges have ruled on multiple occasions that an IP address doesn’t actually prove what individual engaged in the act.

I was going to download their movies to spite them, but looking it up they’ve only produced complete trash.

Many musicians have famously come from poor illiterate backgrounds, being able to play a tune, sing, or recite a story doesn’t require reading skills. It requires good memory to recall what youve heard or creativity to make up something new. So i an totally get behind a bard that cant read.

Doesn’t look like it, but it also looks like they don’t award shows prior to their founding ('72). So TNG has the benefit of winning multiple awards since airing whereas TOS only has a few movie and re-release awards. Plus most of TOS already have lifelong wards individually.

I’m on side “Let them fight”.

And what if you want to listen to different songs from different artists?

Physical media is great if you want to be told how to enjoy something. I’ll take the freedom anyday.

Interesting that it doesn’t remix on Edge.
