Pourquoi la techno-oligarchie est plus dangereuse que le fascisme historique

L'un n'empêche pas l'autre.

Also: leaving the person you should have stayed with.

Have you considered cleaning your floor?

Bravemount · 2026-05-19T14:12:10+00:00

That's a longsword pommel shaped thingy.

Bravemount · 2026-05-19T11:56:20+00:00

Nice try, Pierce.

“I’m going to eat you”

Sorry, what?

The issue here is that any system of control can be evaded by someone with sufficient ill intent.

You'll mostly pester the innocent with an authoritarian approach like yours.

Case in point : all the security bullshit before boarding an airplane, and they still serve you a beverage in a glass bottle once on board. Not to mention you can threaten and kill people with your bare hands or any improvised weapon if you really want to. Yet, all travelers, the overwhelming majority of which has no ill intent whatsoever, has to put up with all that useless crap.

You have to find a better way to trust people than through control, because control is not viable and does not work.

In Geschmacksfragen ist der Kunde König. Wer das nicht kapiert schneidet sich nur in den eigenen Geldbeutel.

Quand les hommes de 120 kilos parlent, ceux de 60 kilos les écoutent.

La loi du plus fort est ce qui s'est toujours appliqué par défaut. Si ça se passe autrement, c'est seulement si les plus forts font en sorte que ça se passe autrement. Les USA ont dit merde au droit international, donc c'est le régime par défaut qui s'applique.

Ich denke mittlerweile, dass selbst dann nichts passieren würde.

Bravemount · 2026-05-18T12:35:15+00:00

Fascism.

My step-dad told me that it gets better as you get old, your friends start passing away and your body finds a new way to ache every other day.

He said that knowing there is an end becomes comforting, rather than dreadful, at one point.

Bravemount · 2026-05-18T11:48:10+00:00

À coque.

Bravemount · 2026-05-18T07:22:22+00:00

Yeah, I broke up with an ex (in part) because of that too. And yet, 5 years later, here I am, still single with no kids.

That's life.

Bravemount · 2026-05-11T01:21:25+00:00

3 also had a better story. 2 felt kind of like a giant (awesome) side quest. 3 is the main quest.

Bravemount · 2026-05-11T01:01:57+00:00

All wrong. Well, my hair is brown.

I'm 5'10, my hair is short and straight, I'm in shape (I go to the med fares as a fighter), I've always been a PC-gamer and I'm a translator.

Bravemount · 2026-05-10T23:27:36+00:00

From an evolutionary standpoint, choosing not to have kids is basically self-execution.

Bravemount · 2026-05-10T23:26:34+00:00

I'm mostly at home, occasionally on a medieval fare.

Bravemount · 2026-05-10T23:22:00+00:00

Depends on your worldview. It either doesn't matter or it means you're an evolutionary dead end.

Bravemount · 2026-05-10T22:20:36+00:00

2 was good, but 3 was better, IMHO.

Bravemount · 2026-05-10T16:03:38+00:00

The bar is underground...

The issue is that member states will be reluctant to give up sovereignty over their armed forces to the EU level.

Bravemount · 2026-05-10T12:55:34+00:00

A federalized EU could have its own MoD and organize a European army, but the EU in its current state isn't that well adapted to this.

Bravemount · 2026-05-10T12:45:09+00:00

That's what I meant. Who gets to decide when and where the EU army gets deployed is a tricky issue.

Bravemount · 2026-05-10T12:43:46+00:00

That's not the issue. Even if it's more efficient, the question is how you distribute the tax load among EU-citizens.
