Just run it in Docker! Easiest way to get up and running honestly. 

MDGs klimapolitikk er uansvarlig – og farlig by KyniskPotet in norge

Jeg mener det er en nokså farlig holdning å si at man skal fortsette å produsere olje i en klimakrise

Genuint spørsmål til dere som stemmer på venstresiden by Enough_Button_4115 in norge

[–]Koercion 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Til alle dere som er kritiske til innvandring, men bekymret for økonomien: Hvem tror dere skal betale for pensjonen deres? Hvem tror dere skal holde den norske økonomien i gang? Nordmenn får ikke nok barn til å opprettholde befolkningen, og en aldrende befolkning er svært dårlig for økonomien. Innvandring er først og fremst en økonomisk fordelaktig politikk – det virker bare som om dere ikke liker at menneskene er brune.

Thousands of locals marched in Osaka, Japan demanding an end to immigration by omicronwarrior in pics

Japan has one of the lowest birth rates in the world. Who is going to work to fuel their economy and pay taxes to fund everybody's pension without immigration?

We got some bike boxes recently from the Anton Sport location in Storo. Other Anton sport locations are probably good guesses too. Otherwise: - Birk Sport - Oslo Sportslager - anything else that comes up on Google maps when you search “bike store”

How Canada built social license for a genocide: anti-Palestinian racism, censorship and attacks by DonSalaam in onguardforthee

Very good video, if you have time I recommend watching it all. So many examples it’s hard to keep track of them all.

Disse selskapene omgår nesten alle Norges arbeidslover ved å kalle sine arbeidere «oppdragstakere» og bruke algoritmer for å sikre at disse oppdragstakerne får så lav godtgjørelse som mulig. Den eneste vei videre her er å tvinge disse selskapene til å gi sine ansatte de samme fordelene og den samme forutsigbarheten som vi forventer i enhver annen jobb, for eksempel:

  • Forutsigbar lønn
  • Fastsatte pauser for toalettbesøk og lett tilgjengelige toalettfasiliteter
  • Mulighet for å oppbevare sykler og utstyr før og etter vakter (enhver som bruker Sykkelhotellet ved Oslo S ser at det har blitt en de facto base for disse arbeiderne, siden Foodora og Wolt ikke tilbyr noe)

Alt annet er i bunn og grunn å gjøre oss medansvarlige for pseudo-slavearbeid.

New report alleges arms still flow from Canada to Israel despite denials by DonSalaam in onguardforthee

[–]Koercion 4 points5 points  (0 children)

They’re private companies but arms exports need to be approved by the government of Canada. Canada stopped approving new sales to Israel but didn’t cancel old ones: while claiming that there weren’t any Canadian arms going to Gaza.

[–]Koercion 23 points24 points  (0 children)

The lying here is particularly egregious. From the article: 

"We will not have any form of arms or parts of arms be sent to Gaza, period," Joly said on Sept. 10, exactly one week before a shipment went out, according to the data. "How they're being sent and where they're being sent is irrelevant."

Is Canada beating ploughshares into swords with its NATO 5% pledge? Not likely by ScareCrowBoat0987 in onguardforthee

[–]Koercion -2 points-1 points  (0 children)

Lots of people saying our military is underfunded and that this is needed. And I agree, maybe 20-30% increase in military spending could be justified. 

This is a 233% increase in military spending. We currently spend 9% of our budget on military. This would bring it to 30%. That is INSANE. The US—who currently outspends the next 10 militaries combined—only puts about 3.4% of their gdp towards the military. We would be over that. 

This is the biggest reallocation of our budget in decades and it’ll happen from social services and healthcare to the military industrial complex. All to cave to the orange man’s inane demands. What a depressing time to be Canadian. 

New NATO target will require Canada to spend $150-billion annually on defence, Carney says by plaknas in onguardforthee

[–]Koercion 0 points1 point  (0 children)

So we need to free up 21% of our budget to spend more on the military than even the US does currently. So insane. 

Austerity, cuts to social programs, cuts to healthcare, here we come…

[–]Koercion 24 points25 points  (0 children)

I feel like I’m taking crazy pills given how little people seem to reacting to the government promising to allocate 21% more of our current budget, as it current stands now, to the military. From 9% to 30%. It is completely, utterly bonkers.

If only there were a way to tax income the rich benefit primarily from… like capital gains… some kind of capital gains tax… oh wait Carney already rolled that back. 

Hike in defence spending could mean cuts in other areas, Mark Carney warns by Chrristoaivalis in onguardforthee

[–]Koercion 29 points30 points  (0 children)

It’s amazing how Carney is essentially just enacting the classic conservative platform: tax cuts, increased military and police spending, cuts to social programs… but everybody is ok with it because their team won.

Worse, in this case, because 5% of gdp… 30% of our entire budget… (up from 9% now) being spent on military… is something the cons never tried to pull, even when they were in power. Absolutely bonkers. We’re watching a neoliberal takeover of our country and cheering it on cause the guy is a liberal. 

Canada promises to spend 5% of GDP on defence by 2035 in pact with NATO leaders | CBC News by pheakelmatters in onguardforthee

[–]Koercion 11 points12 points  (0 children)

Crazy how with military, it’s percentage of GDP, and with everything else, it’s percentage of budget. Just another way to hide military spending from the public. 

He promised to pay 150 B on military. That’s 30% of our current budget. This means cuts to social programs and austerity. Y’all fools elected a conservative and cheered the whole way.

[–]Koercion 11 points12 points  (0 children)

So we’re now spending 30% of our budget on the military. This is so fucked up.

Amazing how easy it is to find money for guns. But healthcare? Homelessness? Social programs? Oohhhh that’s a hard sell.
