let me think about this one… mmmm, no

this made me very sad. How could you ruin a funny ha ha meme for me and make it all serious

looks around the state of the world and the conditions of our collective existence shit.

considering all the international resolutions and breaches of international law by Israel for almost all of its existence, the crippling sanctions are welcomed any time now.

ok so will they:

1. Disarm Israel from being able to commit its genocide and ethnic cleansing?

2. Not allow Israel to continue to maintain and expand its settlements, all illegal under international law?

3, Sanction Israel until it dismantles its non-democratic and exclusionary state based on ethnonationalist exclusionary politics?

4, Ensure the right of return for Palestinian refugees and their descendants living many living in refugee camps and are stateless people, and allow them to return into their homes since the 1948 nakba?

5. Work on an international framework to ensure just reparations for the Palestinians are ensured?

I don’t think they will do anything close to any of those points and this is just mere political posturing to protect themselves from allowing a genocide to happen while the ‘international community’ stood and watched and did nothing.

It’s a bit insulting how they think they can dictate the terms of justice with their vague statements.

It’s been decades many states have recognized Palestine as a state. Look where we are at today.

While it may sound ridiculous, I actually think there is some healthy outcomes of practicing minimalist lifestyles. Gives me a peace of mind and avoids having to spend so much time on ‘managing my things’.

Although I don’t know if I can go full on 100% minimalism… I do like to do things 🙂

Thank you for your reply, this is helpful to know.

That’s what I currently do as well, I just backup particular .config subfolders and other directories. I’ll probably continue to avoid just raw transferring an entire home directory on a new install.

it’s nature’s gobstoppers!

i love my collection. no one will take my precioussss

that’s a good question and I’m not sure. Worth it to find out, but personally I don’t dual boot with Windows. I just have my main linux install and use a virtual machine. I never have needed to use a windows virtual machine but it would be interesting if I could activate it with the copy that came with my laptop.

Unless that copy is registered to my microsoft account? I have no idea that’s how much I try to avoid windows now

This is the way.

On a related note, would you recommend restoring an entire home directory (including the dot files and all the dot directories) once I reinstall all the packages after a fresh install? Would it basically replicate my restored setup or would there be random issues that emerge? I’m thinking particular system settings related to kde/gnome settings, but others I might not be aware of.

lol any EU bureaucrat who thinks otherwise is either a useful idiot or themselves compromised?

yes i definitely agree with your point here, systems don’t just live in the abstract, but are carried out by people who carry on fucked up prejudices, and all that.

I 100% agree with this, but the burden should not be placed on the oppressed. Men must dismantle patriarchy too. They don’t get to sit around and do jack shit.

Obviously you don’t want the privileged to steal the cause and speak for the oppressed and marginalized, and this has always been an issue. But it’s not because of ‘men’ but because of capitalism and patriarchy that declaws any effective challenge to oppression. There are similar examples to this like green washing and the environmentalist movement.

or, you know, men who don’t cat call and consider themselves feminists and allies? This is not hard.

it is either edgelord useful idiots who think saying edgy words make a fuck all of a difference or they want to let out steam because of patriarchy, or a prolonged and sustained psyop to completely discredit ferminism or to divide progressives/the left.

I think it’s both.

yeah, and not just leftist. you can have the most liberal and bourgeois-backed nationalist project just to secure some kind of national sovereignty and there will still be a coup. Case point: Iran and Mosaddegh.

Imperialism will sap the wealth of countries and peoples for short term gains, regardless of the economic system.

i call this a doubling down… there’s only so much fake constructed lies of reality until it just breaks the brain of followers.

all the best to them (not)
