I reported harassment from other students to teachers. They ignored it and did nothing for 8 years. I stopped asking for help.

World News@lemmy.ml•What U.S taxpayers are getting for their money in Ukraine
171·3 years agoThe American government is not giving Ukraine bags of money. They are giving them weapons. These weapons were made by American companies. All of the money spent on these weapons was either spent years ago, or remains in the American economy. The only thing that is moving is metal, plastic, explosives, etc. Money is being pumped into the defense industry, which you would think would make conservatives happy.

No Stupid Questions@lemmy.world•If Thanos had, instead of randomly wiping out 50% of all living things, he had instead in each species wiped out only the dumbest 50% what would the reaction of each avenger have been?
122·3 years agoThanos was a fucking stupid character in the MCU. The human population is currently doubling every 61 years with a growth rate of about 1.14%. Assuming similar numbers across the galaxy, he didn’t do anything except cause suffering. He’s a very poorly written villain.
I guess to stay on topic, they would have looked at population growth, and determined that his plan was moronic, and fought him.

Showerthoughts@lemmy.world•I feel like we're all stuck in a movie where all the rich people live on some kind of floating island or satellite with everything they need to live well, and all of us have zero chance of going there
52·3 years agoAh nice, the “everyone who isn’t a conservative is on the left” tactic. It lets you compress 80% of all ideologies into “the left,” which means you can accuse everyone in “the left” of the stupid shit tankies and liberals believe at the same time!

World News@lemmy.ml•India has officially labeled Canada an international terrorist sanctuary — “a safe haven for terrorists, for extremists, and for organized crime,” in the words of the Ministry of External Affairs spok
151·3 years agoI think you got downvoted by people who thought you were asking for proof that India murdered that fellow.
I found it pretty clear you were mocking India’s government for not providing any proof of Canada being a terrorist sanctuary.
I dunno, there some necessary context here. I think Requiem for a Dream is a better movie then Iron Man, but I sure as hell wouldn’t pick it as the only movie I’m ever going to watch again.

I’m not talking about Valve giving things back to us. I’m talking about the fact the owners of the company get money simply by owning the company. They take money they didn’t work for. Even if the company isn’t manipulative or scummy, they’re enriching people who don’t deserve it.
