  • You can't have an apolitical economic system, sorry. Doesn't work like that lol. Capitalism and economic systems are inherently political.

  • Mahmoud Khalil can be expelled for his beliefs alone, US government argues
  • "Officially" maybe not, but Goldman was denaturalized like a decade after she should've been because the government wanted a reason to deport her and they couldn't while she was a US citizen. So they made her denaturalization retroactive. Steimer was denaturalized and deported for the "crime" of printing and distributing anti-war leaflets.

  • I literally just got a Kobo Libra Colour a few days ago. Works great so far. I wouldn't recommend it for your back pocket though, too large for that. I think they offer smaller e-readers, but I'm not sure which ones might fit well in a pocket.

  • You taught me what a sky funeral is. Equally parts metal and ecological, thanks.

  • I use almond, soy, and/or oat milk for my coffee and tea and like it alright. Different strokes for different folks.

  • Is Linux Ready For Mainstream Gaming In 2025?
  • Do you mind me asking you which distro you use? I've tried running BG3 on Linux Mint and I can't seem to get the game to ever load into the world. I get all the way to the in-game menu and into the loading screen after that and then it hangs and crashes. Every time. I've tried using a couple different versions of Proton, tried out a few different versions of Nvidia graphics drivers... No luck yet.

  • So he's calling himself a king now, eh?

  • I use Jerboa currently. I was using Relay for reddit and the two aren't really similar, I just switched to it because I saw it recommended the most when I was leaving reddit during the API fiasco. I haven't tried any of the other apps because I'm used to this one now and it gets the job done.

  • The social credit score stuff is basically a Western myth. There was some local level rumblings and plans, but most of it has been unpopular or axed. The only thing that exists at a national level for individuals is the equivalent of a credit score in the US and western countries. I believed this narrative at one point, but then I delved deeper. https://www.technologyreview.com/2022/11/22/1063605/china-announced-a-new-social-credit-law-what-does-it-mean/

  • USA comparison
  • I think you're assuming their intent is to make it sound expensive and that it's a right wing talking point, but they've already said in their comments that they agree with a publicly funded healthcare system and are actively for it. They've also said their reason for wanting to use another word besides "free" to describe it is to explicitly deflate the right wing talking point that it's being called "free" when it's really not. If you call it publicly funded or something else besides free that gets more at the essence of what the thing is, then the right wingers can't use the point that it "isn't free" against you and the public discourse around it will then have to shift.

  • USA comparison
  • At point of service, yes. But not entirely. It's still paid for lol. Which is the entire point that the person you've been replying to was trying to make.

  • USA comparison
  • Your country has publicly funded healthcare that is free at point of service.
