What? No, my friend you misunderstand. Mass-production makes stuff affordable and scalable. Capitalism makes it so wealth is horded and only the rich get to decide what gets made. You vote with your dollar while a billionaire votes with theirs, guess who wins.

Mass-production is not a capitalism-exclusive unlock, it's a dlc that can be redeemed in any economic system.

It's kinda like comparing universal healthcare to individual payer for-profit insurance. One rewards everyone as a universal system with consistency (at least in theory) and the other rewards only rich people.

So thaaaat's why I like clicking pens as a fidget but don't love it when others do it in my proximity.

Sucks that that happens to you, but good for you for resisting his possessiveness! Hope you can find some better friends!

And not all Jewish people support Israel! I have to assume many understand what's going on and side with Palestine.

Like in the way Satanism parodies christianity and does it better in every way?

Oof, while the EU pressures Apple to actually improve their products with USB-C and replaceable batteries, the British government fumbles again. Seriously, E2E is a basic requirement for most companies and should be standard across the board. All this clamoring to try to detect CSAM just stinks like government surveillance and a threat to everyone's privacy, and the US is no better.

I got "back in my day'd" by my lead at work who makes at minimum 2 grand more than me, but with the pay scale, he should be making significantly more, and we're both part of a union that's been fighting for a better pay scale for new employees for a while because it's no longer sustainable.

We're supposed to be on the same team, wtf, you're licking the wrong boots.

I just use

30°C is hot, 20°C is nice 10°C is cold, 0°C is ice.

Obviously that won't apply everywhere, but in milder climates it works pretty good.

Eh I think it's pretty neat. Means a majority of users are tired of or willing to subvert capitalism in some aspect and that gives me hope.

Really? Y'all skip all that? Idk, I like a good buildup sometimes. And when it comes to XConfessions and other artsy porn, I watch the whole thing after the intro.

Israel is an apartheid state and fuck that shit. Instead of "Mowing the Lawn" (aka committing genocide by pushing Palestinians out of their homeland) and bombing schools and refugee camps, maybe try socialist policies that lift everyone up. Fuck fascism and fuck racism.

I realize there's important nuances I'm overlooking, but I watch enough Democracy Now to know that tiptoeing around or staying silent just gives room for Israel fascists to spread lies based on their feelings, not the truth. This shit's depressing but fuckin important.

And don't take my word for it, check my sources!
