I hate buying any clothing with a brand name visible, but for certain types of item like sports clothes it’s almost impossible.

Listen the corporations that buy these elections have bought Brandon and Trump, if you want a third candidate you’ll have to buy your own.

I’m just to figure out why the Hexbear communities are even federated into some Lemmy instances. They are blatantly racist to users.

What did you say that made people “racist” to you?

Rare opportunity for Scottish police to win some extremely

Any street food that doesn’t make me either constipated or shit myself is deeply un-Amerikkkan and an attack on our culture

Nah this is unhinged, and deeply controlling behaviour. If someone is checking your location constantly and giving you grief for every difference in reported vs actual location, then you’re forced to give full account of your whereabouts at all times and justify your destinations.

If only one of their thousands of 20yr old Field Marshals could step up to the plate.

I had low expectations for this post from the first sentence, but he managed to crawl under those expectations nicely.

“Marx is only interested in human problems on earth, and cares nothing for non human issues outside of earth” is a truly straw clutching criticism for a philosopher who was speaking about human societetal organisation which at that point was entirely on the surface of the planet (and to all practical purposes remains that way presently).

Yes, he neatly explained political economics, but he didn’t say anything about gas/plasma currents within stars, or of non carbon based life’s bio chemistry so I think we can ignore his works as irrelevant as he fails to consider wider issues.

Also how can it be progress if capitalists don’t benefit??

“We will scale up the building and supply of government-subsidized housing and improve the basic systems for commodity housing to meet people’s essential need for a home to live in and their different demands for better housing,” - but what about the profit motive?

Yeah I’m all for dunking on Europeans, but this is a dumb take, all food is from somewhere else. Apples may have come from Kazakhstan but that doesn’t mean people and cultures from outside Kazakhstan haven’t also grown apples and come up with unique ways to prepare and eat them. So what? Doesn’t mean a Japanese apple curry isn’t a part of Japanese cuisine, or cider isn’t a traditional beverage in south west England. Likewise with rice? Are we claiming that only food made near the Yangtze River basin can claim rice? Nigerian Jollof is rice apropriation?

Get outa here.

Dunk on Belgium for being allergic to flavour, or Germany for thinking chicken is a vegetable or Italians for being weird little freaks if you mess up a “traditional Italian recipe” when the only Italian food tradition for most of history was ‘not starving’.

Truly the UK is the worst nation.
