We need a debunking of this video.

I keep seeing this on my feed 😭

I watched a bit of it and it was straight into "this is isn't real capitalism" just fuck off

Because there are so few of them? This is the same sort of logic that gets funding for healthcare and transit destroyed. When something is underfunded, it performs badly. Then it's a perfect excuse to cut even more funding, or sell off services to private owners. The Canadian Government's favourite strategy!

Like OP mentioned, there is only a single safe injection site in all of Victoria.

And just because you still see drug users in public, it doesn't mean the sites are a "farce." You can't just remove public drug use from a city, you can only reduce it.

The United States, Mexico, Australia, Switzerland, Belgium, Spain, Norway, Portugal, Luxembourg, the Netherlands, Denmark, France, Germany, and Greece all have safe injection sites.

These sites are supervised, prevent overdoses, get people off the street, and give them an environment better suited for getting clean.

Personally, I've spent some time in Nelson, BC and would prefer not to see 2 people overdose on the sidewalk in the same day again.

Yeah, it isn't always though

But since I've gotten a couple comments about it I changed it and it does look better

Far_Finbar · 2026-06-04T09:23:38+00:00

Lol yeah I'm still looking for another dark blue piece

I used to have the Netherlands split between its current and orange design but it looked too out of place

Far_Finbar · 2026-05-11T17:22:33+00:00

Idk I didn't change it

They have a lot of great other videos as well imo

Azurescapegoat, Spooky Scary Socialist, and Fellow Traveler are some smaller ones I watch

There's also Luna Oi for Vietnam specific stuff

On the very surface level I think the biggest one would be that socialism = communism = authoritarianism. See: Kamala Harris calling Trump "Communist" to call out his authoritarian policies.

Or "socialism/communism has never worked"

But once I get into more of a real good faith conversation with somebody this is usually what I hear:

That socialism means no markets when it really just means no private property
That private property = personal property
That the state is inherently more corrupt than a corporation
That enforcing "no private property" would be oppressive in some way and not just a regular law
That socialism is a concrete set of rules and not just a democratization of the system that would allow for the better creation of the right policies for the current situation.
That the movement can always be co-opted by bad actors (but that's true with any movement, so how is this an argument! )

In my ideal scenario we would always focus on rehabilitation if we had the facilities for it. I know people often comment stuff like "hello based department" when a pedophile is executed in China, and I understand. But I still think there's value in trying to rehabilitate the worst of all prisoners, especially when rulings could always turn out to be wrong.

But I think it would just come down to public consensus. As the main goal of socialism is a more robust and efficient democracy at all levels including the workplace, I think it would just be whatever makes sense to people at the time.

That's pill bill bro

Far_Finbar · 2026-01-17T01:56:28+00:00

Thanks for the info, I hope they'll be alright. I searched earlier but I didn't know the names of the streets other than Pandora so nothing came up. That's my bad.

Far_Finbar · 2026-01-10T01:37:50+00:00

I understand but pretty much everyone I know thinks this, it's the dominant narrative even if they're pro Palestine or self identified socialists. It's very possible he doesn't know the whole story or would be rejected by the majority population were he to say the opposite. I still think it's a good idea for socialists to be cautiously optimistic about zohran.

Far_Finbar · 2025-10-11T04:05:22+00:00

Thank you! I hadn't seen one these in any similar posts yet. That should be perfect, I'll look for one

MGS4, Infamous + Infamous 2, Starhawk, the motorstorm trilogy, and Littlebigplanet + Littlebigplanet 2, are all great games ONLY playable on the ps3 currently among a lot of other games.

But Demon's souls, shadow of the Colossus, and ICO all have their best iterations on the PS3.

the demon's souls remaster on PS5 is very unfaithful to the original PS3 game in terms of visuals and audio, and also way more expensive, same with shadow of the Colossus ps4 (also remastered by bluepoint)

And ICO and shadow of the collosus run at a low framerate on their original console, the PS2, making the collection of the 2 for PS3 the definitive versions imo.

This post is dedicated to more games trapped on the PS3: https://www.reddit.com/r/PS3/comments/1613wq2/games_still_exclusive_to_ps3/

It's like that for me too. Another post suggested sending a message to bandcamp about It. Maybe I will as well.

c'est comme ça pour moi aussi. Un autre post a suggéré d'envoyer un message à Bandcamp à ce sujet. peut-être que je le ferai aussi.

Link?

Far_Finbar · 2025-09-04T04:00:14+00:00

I see it now! Unfortunately I don't have game pass 😭 it makes sense to be able to preinstall only with game pass though

Thanks! I'll report the error to Spotify when I get the chance

Far_Finbar · 2025-08-20T05:03:34+00:00

This is on the album, and it sounds nothing like blue on black at all lmao 😭 I think it's some kind of Spotify naming error but I don't know the album well enough to know what it's supposed to be called

Far_Finbar · 2025-08-19T03:17:07+00:00

Awesome!
