I wonder if the mac demarco song is based on this in any way.

Imagine meeting this person irl

It seems really cool, but can’t do cherry picking yet iirc.

Yes please

The docu series O.J. - Made in America is surprisingly good. It uses his story as a starting to point to expand on internal contradictions within the US white-supremacist empire, esp police oppression against black people in the LA area, and OJ’s role as one of the most famous counter-revolutionary athletes / actor.

Bashir would definitely return his cart and others, and not be irked by it.

Yep, and he’d probably return other people’s carts too while grunting about the decay of federation morals and wishing he could put them in the brig for a few hours.

Can we all agree that Ferengi’s have the best drip in the galaxy? Quark’s outfits are always incredible.

LA has 40k ppl sleeping on the streets any given night too.

I love that one so much. You and I are really close on a rewatch, my partner and I just started season 4 a week ago. Get ready for some of the best trek … really best TV ever made.

You kinda have to ignore replicators for most of this to make sense. They should’ve just let replicators be either microwave ovens or 3D printers instead of being apparently able to replicate anything.

Current timeline plot twist: the fact that this episode was written, is what’s keeping the Vulcans from admitting us right now.

A used samsung, or Xiaomi pad. Xiaomi pad if you want battery life especially.

Sorry, I interpreted your first comment for some reason as saying that Kira did not target civilians and blow stuff up, and so she wouldn’t be considered a terrorist by today’s standards. Yes I 100% agree she would, and she would be demonized as much as the Palestinian resistance is today.

I can’t tell from this comment, but yes, I’m doing a rewatch rn, and Kira very much admits that she killed non-combatant cardassians during the occupation, and much of the first season is her anger at what the cardassians forced them to do.

Maybe something like, “don’t kick posts with a negative score off completely off the feed” or something.

That’s fair, and that could be handled in the lemmy codebase, IE putting a minimum score instead of the algorithm kicking things off the feed. You might need to open an issue for that one.

Many of the “china-watchers”, like Adrian Zenz, are anti-abortion, white-supremacist christian evangelicals. They view any reduction in birth rates as a genocide, even if that reduction is caused by more access to birth control. Birth rates in liberal countries, especially in countries like France, Japan, South Korea, the UK, are tanking. Do you agree with the birthers that this constitutes a genocide? (they would call it a white genocide).

We also see lower birth rates in countries that have higher economic development in general.

Yep, its clear their users are using those emote replies as a substitute for downvotes. People want to downvote comments sometimes (express disapproval with little effort), and will do that in the only ways available to them.
