Thats the whole point. They are so immensely rich, they could fix most of the world’s and its people’s problems fairly quickly, and still be rich enough to continue to live in unbridled luxury and splendor, while the population would be mostly happy and content with the system. But apparently money is addictive and so they would rather ruin the world and societies by promoting a shift into fascism than give up even a sliver.
So the president felt more responsibility to his nation than to the slaves, at a time where slavery was much less frowned upon than today. I have a hard time retroactively faulting him for that. If he did the right thing for the wrong reasons, is it not still the right thing to do?
Personally i like him as well but he sometimes ventures into boomer humor which doesn’t really vibe with me. Other than that, apparently a fun dude.
I definitely agree that horny heterosexual men have a hard time on lemmy though. Actually i recently wrote a similar conclusion myself on some related post, feels nice to know it’s not just my impression.
Never forget that social media shows you only what the other wants you to see about them. Her profile is essentially optimized to ellicit your response, regardless of how real it actually is.
Also one of the reasons classic social media is so toxic and harmful to the users.
Don’t, you are one of my favorite posters on here at this point lol. Just go where your whimsical (and horny) heart takes you
Why do you want to bring 17k € in cash? That raises all sorts of eyebrows.
Is it not feasible to pay with credit card/debit card? I remember the last time i was outside Europe i could just withdraw local currency as needed at ATMs. It would just subtract the converted amount in € off my account.
Anyway, i am pretty sure you need to declare that much cash when entering.
Can we fucking throw them out please, straight up treason to Europe.
Oh i don’t try to defend it or keep it alive, lol. With the changes needed to make capitalism work for everyone it would no longer be capitalism.
Honestly, 100 mil or even 50 mil is more than enough for any human to live a carefree life, without the need to work ever again and without any material want or need.
But we would be fine without a wealth cap too, if we got rid of the concept of inheritance. Make as much money as you can or want, but actually pull yourself up by your bootstraps and when you die it all gets returned to the people (and not your nepo babies).
Why is my first thought “i’d buy this as a shirt”…
Fuck me and my apparently still consoomer fried brain
This is really impressive, but i think i got brain damage from reading the description lol. Anyway, awesome.
Without having read this i suspect the decade long cyber warfare primarily executed by russia, agitating the american and western public with the quiet assistance from rich (tech) profiteers, sort of precludes what happens in america now.
That is not to say the americans are without fault, the russians just did and are doing their best to fan the flames.
What if the two depicted men are wildly homophobic themselves?
Enjoy getting herded at gunpoint into a minefield. There are no real rules in a total/world war. If you fuck up on purpose or refuse to do your duty you will likely get severely punished by your own side.
Curious that this is your perception, while i myself have noticed a sort of inverse trend in that regard.
Especially around these parts it is heavily frowned upon making any kind of horny or sexual comment as a dude about a woman. A surefire way to get schooled on what a misogynist objectifying dick you are (excluding literal porn community comment section of course).
Other horny comments are much less controversial, women on men, men on men, women on women. Things you might find in the average (gay) porn comment section get upvoted on lemmy on a regular basis, im sure it’s totally ironic.
So my personal “analysis” of recent ish lemmy online discourse would be that heterosexual men on lemmy avoid being publicly horny because of the expected blowback. That or they make an alt account.
Oh you definitely can, and i do enjoy the unhinged nature of your contributions, but it is pretty much a guarantee that some lonely and/or horny dude will feel encouraged.
“West” german here. Not a single lower to middle class household has a fucking maid, at best a housecleaner coming once a week or so.
It also is not particularly clean or orderly here, for example my own street facing exterior wall and apartment entrance have at least 3 graffitis, not counting random scribbles and tags. Granted i do live virtually in the very center of the city, but either way.
Definitely not neat freaks, perhaps in comparison with the united states where there is so much trash everywhere in urban areas. We do try to dispose of that for the most part.
Call me old fashioned but to me these kinds of details feel way too personal to use as outwardly defining properties of a relationship.
Like your arrangement, i’m pretty sure i would not communicate any of this to any person i don’t want to hook up with.
What the fuck kind of business is it of anyone else? Why is it relevant to anyone who and how i am fucking?
“Rogue AI” as if it’s some sentient evil thing when its just a llm with too many permissions… This timeline is so dystopian, but simultaneously incredibly lame i hate it.
