ShermanPosting@piefed.social•States' rights! But only for the states that think like us!English
1·12 days agoI think it’s a fine adjective for chattel slavery. I chose it specifically to aggravate the types who’d be sympathetic to the confederacy. It’s a direct response to the phrase “particular institution” that confederates prefer.

10·12 days agoOne of the biggest complaints that the slaveholding States had was that the Fugitive Slave Act (federal law) wasn’t being enforced on Free States. I know this was among the grievances listed in South Carolina’s deceleration of succession.
So they were perfectly happy to accept federalism and Federal Supremacy when it served their satanic institution.
In both instances, you’re the moral agent who gets to decide. And it’s not our advantage in intelligence or wisdom, it’s our advantage in mass.
Morals have power dynamics, CMM.
No TERF is a feminist. It’s just in the name. Like how North Korea calls it’self “Democratic”, and the Nazis called themselves “Socialist”.
What’s going on with Dawkins? I have followed his decline with interest.
I saw a YT video last week that referenced Dawkins’ work, and I was like, Oh yea, he used to be a respected scientist before he became an Epstein Island public bigot and TERF. Fame did to Dawkins what the One Ring did to Gollam.

5·19 days agoEvery time I hear “worst president ever” I think of Johnson. This is easy because I consider Trump’s presidency to be an consequence of the failure of Reconstruction.

10·20 days agoI was always taught that actions speak louder than words. Was Lincoln an anti-black racist? Maybe yes. Was he the most pro-black POTUS in history? Undeniably.
Just some context: Ancient Aliens is racist. It’s roots are literally Nazi.
You see, it’s only achievements in brown countries that need alien help. The Greeks didn’t need ET for the Colosseum, heavens no. We just scratch our head at Africans or Americans building pyramids and stuff.
In the 30s, Nazi “researchers” believed in something I’ll call “Ancient Aryans” which is exactly the same as Ancient Aliens except it’s pure Germans who are visiting these primitive cultures and raising architecture. What happened to the Germans? They were annihilated by in-breeding with locals of course.
The primitive desire of the savage to decorate his fetish object is an American trait, not African.

Linux@lemmy.ml•Turns out I have been updating wrong all this time! 🤦🏼
21·22 days agoI’m the same way. My Debian server is two versions out of date, but it’s still getting security updates and works, so why in the world would I upgrade?

NonCredibleDefense@piefed.social•These new episodes of Forgotten Weapons are getting too esoteric for me.English
15·23 days agoI used to watch this channel before the George Floyd Protest summer. At it’s height, Ian decided to feature “crowd control” weapons.
I took this as a signal that Ian is a typical 2nd-brained right-wing bootlicker. Or maybe he’s stupid. Either way I got no time for gun Jesus.
Warning, Neruoscience has been known to lead to mental decline and in extreme cases even podcasting.

Stop making everything political!
The national anthem of people who love the status quo!

I’m dying.
I started with Debian and am driving Catchy now. Catchy will pull you into the terminal more than Debian will, but you don’t sound like someone put off by that.
The good news is that pacman is easy to learn and Catchy’s default terminal app is superior.
Tech in general has a huge boomer-humor problem in that all those old fucks that wrote the original code stuffed it full of puns, in-jokes, and idioms that are only relevant today in retirement homes in Ohio.
And I don’t mean this is annoying or funny, but as a legitimate problem. It’s bad enough that you have to learn English to code, you also are disadvantaged for not sharing the culture with retirement age white dudes from America.
It wouldn’t be so bad if it was good boomer humor, but remember, these are the guys who think “Linux Is Not uniX” is funny.

ShermanPosting@piefed.social•We all choose which heritage to embrace, and which to reject. It says a lot about us.English
6·28 days agoAs an American, dragging Johnny Reb is my heritage and you have to respect that.
People who think history get’s written by the victor don’t know about the Daughters of the Confederacy. My mother’s history text in high school was basically written by Miss Millie.








This myth that mass-produced cheap and simple weapons always beats technological superiority needs to die.
I’m pretty sure the Soviets had more helicopters than the Mujaheddin had Stinger Missiles. So they can’t loose right?
