Tja... Nach Marx generiert ja letztlich nur menschliche Arbeit Wert. Ein Schelm, wer Böses denkt.

There are lot of people saying that in charge of foreign policy somewhere. And not a single one actually thinking it.

If I was a parent, I'd like teachers to tell me if my child was questioning my gender. Seriously, what the fuck is wrong with that kid? Do I need to run around the house naked more often?

At which point we arrive at OP's closing remark: "Either way, it's a win for Norway." And that's hard to dispute for any country taking its claim to being a democracy even halfway serious, considering the manipulative shenanigans that are par for the course at anything Meta.

Agreed. I'd also argue that it would have been better if pirates managed to do the job before that.

True, but let's be real here: it's only true, because you started the genocide much earlier and at this point in time are basically done, besides when some holy site or other is in the way of building an environment destroying pipeline and necessitates a belated mop up operation on a scale small enough to be largely overlooked, especially by corporate media who couldn't give a fuck about any genocide that can't be used to further a profitable agenda anyway.

For people who didn't watch way too many Zizek talks: Zizek used this joke to illustrate a point. As it goes, I completely forgot the point, but memorized the joke. Probably because I'm a pervert. Here goes: In an exhibition in Moscow, there's a painting with the title "Lenin in Warsaw" depicting a woman who looks suspiciously like Nadezhda Krupskaya, Lenin's wife, screwing what appears to be a student. A confused visitor asks the guide standing beneath the painting: "But where's Lenin?" The guide, of course, answers: "Lenin is in Warsaw."

Well, why should the average end-user use Linux, actually? If your answer is privacy, taking control back or something in that general line, you're essentially advocating for a technological solution on the individual level as a solution to what essentially are and always have been political and ideological problems. Expecting that to work out is wishful thinking at best. I have growing suspicions, though, that it's more like a different ideological layer, and in that regard quite akin to making the climate catastrophe about choices of individual consumers (of which they often have very few, actually).

Dumbed down Linux exists. It's called Android.

Rechtsextrimistisch ist noch geschönt. Die Partei, die den Faschisten Björn Höcke aka Landolf Ladig in ihren Reihen duldet, ist dann eben konsequent auch als faschistisch zu bezeichnen. Wie man sich bettet, so liegt man.

Most people, in one way or another, process by talking. It's fine. Besides, there's the train wreck aspect of it. Bad taste as it may be, but you can't stop watching and pointing out more horrible details to the people around you.
