I don’t understand the wording of that sentence.

They don’t have to extract the oil if they don’t want to, but clearly it’s profitable for them because they are extracting oil.

The coups don’t cost them any money, it’s the tax payers that pay for that.

Writes an entire essay to state a simple point. Why didn’t they reply? My argument was so interesting!

I’m pretty sure big oil wants more oil. If govenment stops letting them take the oil they will just coup them again. Why does big oil not want this?

I might be cooked

It is scary, to capitalists.

The racism with the russian doll tops it off too.

So unaffordable you have to pay to read about it…

Doing it on tor would work.

But now your making yourself more obvious, and you need to tell google your address. Is it really worth it?

Do they though? They aren’t some kind of god how would they know your if you don’t tell them your address or someone else tells them for you?

most of the point has been about the viewpoint we are choosing for the words

I guess so. I would say revolutionary activity is any form of workers uniting against the capitalist class and building class consciousness to get us closer to a revolution, or the revolution itself.

multiple actions that don’t cause a huge ruckus are the backbone of the change and in fact the important part

Can you give examples of this? I have only seen significant change in favour of the working class when the working class has inhibited the ability for the capitalist class to go about it’s regular oppressive lifestyle.

everybody except affluent white people is in a worse situation than they would be if “the most left wing of the large parties” had governed with consistency in any western country

I have two issues with this. First of all they haven’t and they likely never will be considering the ruling capitalist class has complete control over the press. It’s not worth falling into the idealist trap of hoping an outcome will happen just because it will benefit everyone. Secondly Even when “left” parties do get elected they always succumb to the coercive forces of the capitalist class and never have any opportunity to impact any change.

Also, elections are by far the best situation for the spreading of political ideas.

This is an interesting point. Revolutionary parties do often run elections inside liberal democracies, although they don’t do this with the expectation they will gain power within the capitalist system and reform it they do this to further spread revolutionary ideas.

I will wait to see if it actually comes at the detriment of the program.

I suppose so. And by downloading more rare models you could be the one seeding torrents to others who didn’t!

I’ve just found out a lot of Chinese models are published to modelscope which seems to be a Chinese version of hugging face.

Downloading LLM’s because the US will censor them seams unlikely. Censorship will pretty much always be bypassable with vpn’s or tor.

Maybe I just don’t have the same threat model as you.

Closed source printers can still be flashed with open source firmware. Creality printers can be flashed with octoprint. Also since they aren’t connected to the internet they can’t force a bad update.

And then after the '80s they stopped making anything new at all.

The train (top one) is too pointy. It’s more aerodynamic to have a more round nose.

I took it as a joke, obviously meta will never divest or be required to divest there entire social media branch.

HELP! We tried this in Europe but the politicians kept on selling out to rich people as soon as (or even before) they got voted in! Feeling kinda alienated and class conscious atm what should we do now?
