It’s GDI propaganda!!! Weather storm machines exist

I watched it all go down too. I even read reason and thought it was reasonable. I would even use cato as a reference.

After the bail outs I was sick of the political status quo too so I started doing my own research and reading. That’s when I found the Libertarian party of US.

That year Gary Johnson was running and there was a lot of debate about open borders, pro-choice, and Just general libertarian ideology. So i soaked it all in.

Then I came across Oscar Wilde’s soul of man under socialism which really opened my eyes to post scarcity life. I was shocked to realize that capitalism wasn’t freedom at all. That we are all lied to think this is how it’s supposed to be. The word libertarian means something completely different elsewhere in the world.

That’s when everything that I thought was libertarian started to become what it is now, cesspool of hate.

I mean conservatives have always been masquerading as (L)ibertarians since 1971 here in the US.

Just a sign that they are easily manipulated

Actual libertarianism is open border like you know people who want to do business here have every right to, and for those “illegals” that commit crimes you have the guns.

Fake libertarianism think it should be controlled…. Wait, by what government? :facepalm: xenophobic much?

It feels like I’ve been here forever but I’ve only been a part of Lemmy for less than 18 months.

I was on twitter since 2007 and hardly posted shit (400 posts in almost 20 fucking years), but when I switched to mastodon I felt like I had been there forever. 400 posts in less than a year.

I am really glad to see the communities thriving.

Yea the issue is the employer doing it to make more profit instead of spreading the more profit they make to the workers. There is nothing wrong with self check out. There is something wrong with people being paid shit when the company is sending dividends to stockholders instead.

Everyone deserves respect.

Respect is in fact, not earned.

One loses respect due to their behavior.

This had nothing to do with what the union wants, the previous poster was asking if they have been doing it wrong

It’s their choice so there is no right or wrong

I asked a CA Libertarian senate candidate where she stands on us left libertarians?

she said left libertarians don’t exist.

US is doomed.

The point is that the choice should be left with the customer and not the hotel.

Japan would probably still be isolated.

in 1853 US sent warships to force Japan to trade with the west.

Its imperial aspirations were fueled by western thought.

I started knitting for my kids when we were living in colorado.

so I ended up processing wool from raw fleece -> hat

raw merino fleece, raw alpaca fleece, Scouring soap, dye, dyeing classes with natalie redding, spinning wheel, drum carder, hackle, table loom, warping thing for yarn

Math

ended up going to school for math education (with pell grant $500 per 6 month term) I can’t pass the exit exam. tried 5 times out of those I had to pay out of pocket for 4 of them $480.

and surprise, I got dxed with ADHD. That’s why I couldn’t pass the tests. now I pay $50 a month for it (doc + meds)

Yea while we were in alaska we were capped. we were in fairbanks as well, which isn’t that rural. I lived in the high desert of california. drive 20 min from hesperia to phelan and you could probably get meth easier than consistent internet.

A random neighbor had terok nor so naturally we changed ours to the bajoran resistance :)

I think the whole thing is that your instance can defederate so even if there were things like that existing you wouldn’t see it. There are plenty of instances that’s not federated with lemmy.ml i believe.

I am not technical however I can follow instructions very well. When people were migrating i read a bunch of the stuff and finally got here.

I’m a math education major and a stay at home mom

My MIL can program cobol but can’t use her iphone lol

Agreed.

I live in the Bay Area and because of my anxiety I can’t drive, but I can get to most places I need to be by BART/light rail.

it’s just one mode of transportation. In Japan also have a comprehensive bus system as well as small towns you can only get by car which rail trains use to service in the 1900s.

People will still have cars. We’ll still have roads and their big dick trucks. I don’t understand how this is a bad idea. LA to Vegas high speed would have been amazing. I lived in oak hills by the 15 seeing the traffic and how many people die on the pass due to car accidents was just horrifying.
