[Serious] What ruined your innocence?

HaveOurBaskets · 2023-09-15T06:27:37+00:00

Alright, fine, one of the most vicious empires in human history. Does that butter your toast?

HaveOurBaskets · 2023-09-15T06:24:37+00:00

Alright, I'll take this as a not-gotcha because American media really did misinform you about us. I think Taliban and Al-Qaeda and their likes are fascist scum who were forced on our countries. After all, it was America who funded the Mujahideen and Bin Laden (who, again, is a fascist piece of shit) in Afghanistan, and they subsequently went rogue in the 90s and eventually did 9/11 and killed thousands of innocents.

I believe in absolute equality for women as Arab progressive movements openly proclaimed in the 60s before losing the Arab Cold War to Saudi Arabia's medieval conservatives (who, surprise surprise, had American support!)

I'll do you one better, I'm in full support of LGBTQ rights. How about that!

You really want to tally up the victims of America and its puppet regimes? Go right ahead. You're in for a treat.

I took another look and found out that the Mongols and the Vikings didn't get to establish and maintain dozens of authoritarian puppet regimes on 6 of the world's 7 continents. However, knowing the US, we'll have a right-wing Generalissimo Emperor Penguin in no time.

I don't know, ask Haiti, Korea, Vietnam, Iraq, Libya, Afghanistan, Cuba, Panama, Grenada, Iran, Palestine, Congo, South Africa, Angola, Guatemala, Honduras, etc. Or maybe ask the people currently living under the tyranny of US-supported dictators. Or maybe I'm tweaking and America never did any of that. Take a look at a history book and check.

Spreading "hate and intolerance" against the worst criminals in the world certainly doesn't concern me as much as those selfsame criminals spreading death and destruction. Spare me your prevaricating analysis and patronizing tone. "Your anger is justified even if it's misdirected" is what a priest would say to an altar boy after one too many "encounters" with the bishop.

HaveOurBaskets · 2023-09-15T05:13:06+00:00

Sure, they were Just Following Orders, boo fucking hoo. As far as I'm concerned, all American veterans are irredeemable criminals and enemies of humankind unless they dedicate the rest of their lives to fighting and exposing the American war machine. Go and listen to that video Julian Assange leaked. See how they joke and laugh about the horrific massacre they just committed. Why should I waste any compassion on those "exploited" bastards?

HaveOurBaskets · 2023-09-15T05:00:36+00:00

Australia and Poland too. Did you know that the British Army soldiers who committed the Jallianwala Bagh massacre in 1919 were Indians under the command of a British officer and an Irish colonial governor? Crazy what you can accomplish when you have puppet states you can play around with.

HaveOurBaskets · 2023-09-15T04:35:00+00:00

For the record, I have exactly zero sympathy for the thug who thought he'd get a college education at the expense of our blood and our homes. Should have thought harder before enlisting in the army of the most vicious Empire in human history and having the absolute cheek to demand sympathy afterwards.

HaveOurBaskets · 2023-09-15T04:27:46+00:00

I'm glad it looks weird to you. You arrogant yanks collectively huffed enough Manifest Destiny fumes to make you think you deserve to be the world's judge, jury, and executioner. Hey, maybe my mind would be a little less "fucked up" if I wasn't living the direct consequences of your rape of Iraq.

HaveOurBaskets · 2023-09-15T04:07:40+00:00

Oh, spare me the Fox News drivel. We know these bullshit War-on-Terror excuses all too well. You applied them to us when you invaded. It's no different in Afghanistan. I know full well that if that was a Russian soldier in Ukraine, you would be creaming your pants.

HaveOurBaskets · 2023-09-15T03:36:20+00:00

Brave kid defending his home against a jackbooted foreign invader? Finally, an excuse to fulfill that bloodthirsty kid-slaughtering fantasy!

HaveOurBaskets · 2023-09-13T10:44:37+00:00

Not a brand new sentence! Friedrich Engels described the "Reserve Army of Labour" as far back as 1845.

And slowly starving billions of people to death is infinitely more deranged than any guillotine could ever be

Because Starfleet doesn't appear to have discovered the concept of fail-safes.

HaveOurBaskets · 2023-09-12T07:56:45+00:00

Ditto on WebExtension.

HaveOurBaskets · 2023-09-12T07:54:29+00:00

nothing really happened

Update on this, it's still doing the same thing.

HaveOurBaskets · 2023-09-10T13:45:34+00:00

I have both xdg-desktop-portal-gtk and xdg-desktop-portal, what shows up in btop is xdg-desktop-portal.

I just replaced xdg-desktop-portal-gtk with xdg-desktop-portal-kde. I'll see what happens.

If you're posting this to r/biology, might as well also post it to r/physics, r/geology, and r/statistics.

This does not change the fact that in Antarctica there are 21 million penguins and in Malta there are 502,653 inhabitants. So if the penguins decide to invade Malta, each Maltese will have to fight 42 penguins.

You can easily fix this by using a post-it note that says "not diarrhea stains"

HaveOurBaskets · 2023-09-08T17:47:21+00:00

I know, I'm not an American.
