True, in total collapse gold isn’t worth much. However, total collapse isn’t very likely. Across all civilization collapses, it’s never come to that point

The only gold worth a damn is the stuff in your hands. Gold speculation is not a hedge against financial crises

You’re describing naivety, not nice. Be nice to everyone, until you’re given a reason to stop being nice.

Here’s another one for the sexy time

I’ve found that the basic editors are all good. Mouse, Gedit, Kate, they all work wonderfully

I’m a big fan of the hex editor plugin, but mostly because I like playing with hex

The Republican party is full of fascists, and there is no compromise with fascists.

And so it begins. Abandon all progressive ideas to appeal to the “centrist”, only to lose to the fascist again. I hate it here.

The first A in ACAB doesn’t stand for “American”

That’s fair, personal experience is highly temperamental to political thoughts like unionizing low-skill jobs. However, I’d like you to consider the single mothers trying to live on those wages. People have to survive on those wages, and those people likely have others relying on those wages as well. I sympathize with you, having been discriminated against for your protected status. I’d also like you to consider countries where people are paid living wages for low skill work. We all deserve better, and the best way to ensure better wages and better lives come from union fights.

What makes you hesitant about unions in highly abusive workplaces?

I’m watching it for the first time, almost at the end of s3. Honestly it’s pretty decent. The Xindi stuff was on shaky ground for a while, but they recovered. It’s good, but I haven’t had any episodes stand out as particularly excellent or terrible

What do you do in that situation? Demand a new car?

Fuck, do I have adhd too?

Your point could have been made without using an ableist slur.

Intentionally stepping on the mine, I like it

Don’t forget insurrectionist

I’d say it’s at about a 4. In the grand scheme I can do nothing. But at the local level, I can affect all sorts of change for the better. I can organize, so as long as I do that then nothing is lost

Well I’m an anarchist, so a Trotskyist state is still a monopoly of violence

I’ve mostly seen non-ml socialists and anarchists. I don’t know what you’ve heard, but Trotsky was also ML.
