i personally like them, they’re perhaps second only to gojira and far better than meshuggah.

nothing new. here in brazil many manufacturers, dell included, would ship laptops with linux and then people would shove a pirated windows copy on it.

nothing’s more expensive than a cheap bmw.

toyota corolla.

You’re looking for validation in a web forum. Independently of what you did or didn’t, go talk to a therapist and work on this need for validation from others.

Also, if you felt what you did is wrong, don’t do it again. There’s nothing you can do about your past.

retreating, but claiming victory. so classic.

But at the time, we didn’t think it was happening to Germans.

she could have added “after all, we’re white, we’re westerners, we thought that this sort of thing only applied to people of colour”.

the thing is, fascism is colonialism applied to white people in the colonial powers. that’s why to some people it’s so revolting, at least when compared to military thugs torturing and disappearing people in poor countries; no, that’s expected from them.

just came here to recommend them. like, op doesn’t really have to have a religion, but i totally understand the question of having a spirituality and wanting to experience it in a group, and the unitarian universalists are the place to go. distancing progressively from this bullseye of sorts, i’d look after buddhism, spiritism, quakerism, some currents of anglicanism and some alternative catholic churches, such as the liberal.

many of the most emblematic coup d’états were sponsored by dems in power. brazil in 64 and 2016, bay of pigs invasion in cuba in 61, south vietnam in 63, greece in 67, dominican republic in 63 and 65, argentina in 66, bolivia in 79, south korea in 61 and 79, honduras in 2009, paraguay in 2012…

worse, they’ll say that he’s privileged for not being a gay in trump’s america, since that’s perhaps the worst thing that could happen to a human being.

tbf the democratic party isn’t a left party.

drink water, loads of it; if you have to go out, always keep a bottle at hand. wear less clothes and keep your house fresh and ventilated, open all windows if possible. buy a/c for your bedrooms but use them just in the night, when you have to sleep. use fans where you have to work or stay during the day. to cope with the higher electric bill, consider installing solar panels on your roof, or a small wind turbine.

this.

adendum: in some “primitive” societies, there was no private property of the means of production. marx and engels studied that extensively.

for the rich? absolutely.

almost never. tickets are often quite expensive and i get to hear my favorite artists at home, with quality speakers and headphones, at the volume i find pleasant.

nah, knowing bukele he did it willingly.

goddamn ancap dictator, typical latin american gusano that licks u.s. boots.

perhaps the greatest achievement (?) of trump and his cronies is making “they live” an obsolete movie. they’re saying in people’s faces now everything every past 'murican government (and their pervasive elites) tried to embelish and coat in self-righteousness. for anyone who lived outside the country, especially those outside global north, this is some sort of twisted vindication.

this renders trump’s tariffs almost completely moot.

i’m brazilian and 40, put a check mark on a lot of things on the list.
