Screen recording then re uploading is always a good option if you're worried about telemetry.

If you're on Windows windows key + G should open a screen recording app.

If you're on linux I like SimpleScreenRecorder: https://simplescreenrecorder.com/

I don't really use apple products but apparently on Mac OS command + shift + 5 should do the trick.

Academics are workers.

They are paid a wage by universities to teach courses, which are the product the university sells, and write papers, which attract further funding and builds the university's prestige, attracting more students (customers). The university pockets the (often OOM greater than their wages) surplus value produced by these academics and fires them if they are no longer producing surplus value. There are conversations to be had about the often exploitative and prone to abuse nature of the relationship between established academics and the graduate students and postgraduate researchers they supervise, and the role of first world academics can have (esp. in business & law, humanities, engineering) in maintaining capitalism and imperialism but it's not disputable that (almost all) academics are workers.

Peter Dutton, Leader of the Opposition from the Hard Right wing of the Australian Liberal Party lost the federal election (current count is 41 seats to 81) and his own seat in Parliament 57%-43%.

He is the first leader of the opposition to ever lose their own seat.

Every time we chat, I'm the one who turns the discussion turns towards capitalism. He’s the one who hesitates when I say we should kill them all. Now, he's not even okay with torture. And I'm not talking random chuds here. I'm naming names like Bezos, Musk, Ben Shapiro, and Andrew Tate.

I say we should force them into an abandoned mineshaft and wall it up. After a month we open it again and if any of the fucking parasites are still breathing we tie them down and let rats do to them what they did to their colleagues. Let them learn the error of their ways. (After the revolution of course. During it many of these fucks will die easy and I’ll be sad).

His current job is extremely cushy. He has good hours, he's friends with his coworkers, and he's making a living wage. So I get his hesitation. But it’s also scary. I don’t know if he'll have my back if I get in any trouble.

I don’t know if I should be gently turning him towards imagining a slow and painful torture of capitalists or not. Am I being too extreme or is he a lib?

 

EQUINUNK, PA—Watching as more than 1 million people took to the streets in violent demonstrations across France, U.S. residents reported Friday that the intensity of the French protests must mean something crazy happened with the way M&M’s are marketed over there. “Seeing how passionate these protesters are leads me to believe they’re angry about a very serious matter, like a candy brand altering its cartoon mascot so that she no longer conforms to my very specific ideas about femininity,” said 49-year-old Pennsylvania resident Chase Henderson, who along with millions of other Americans reacted with a knowing nod to footage of cars being turned over and buildings set on fire, having identified anthropomorphic candy-coated chocolates as the sole possible source of upheaval. “I know that I wanted to riot when they made the green M&M character less sexually appealing to me by taking away her go-go boots. Maybe in France they did something even worse, like giving one of the M&M guys a lisp, which would certainly upset me. If that happened, I might suddenly become confused about which M&M I most wanted to fuck.” At press time, reports confirmed the weeks-long uprising in France was in fact a response to a new television ad in which a female M&M character is seen wearing a hijab.
