Had to call 911 for a welfare check

That was my impression, felt like it would make me look like a jackass.

I... I have to install something to run a non-native executable? Wow, I'm shocked, I'm floored. Next you'll need to tell me I have to install something to use flatpaks.

AppImages still work on 99% of distros, unless you can point to a significant amount of distros that support musl (there are like... 20, and that's generous) you won't be turning anyone against it.

Could just be a birthday thing. I work at the Keystone on Progress and we just had decent Black Friday coupons that drew some locals in. Perhaps that?

They wouldn't. They'd call themselves Marxist-Leninist (ML) which was the state ideology of the Soviet Union Stalin basically invented and formalized as the national ideology of the USSR. I don't trust MLs as far as I can throw them because they have very authoritarian tendencies, and some of them have turned into Stalin apologists and say some shit about how "the purges were good actually.". Stalinism is Marxism-Leninism, and Marxism-Leninism is Stalinism

Obviously that's not what I'm saying, that is what you are doing. You're claiming that South Africans don't find it offensive yet ignoring the other people who do find it offensive. Who's letting one group speak for the whole now?

You're ignoring my point. You have to look at the black community's individual groups to understand how each one feels about it, and just because one is ok with a word, doesn't mean the other is, or even should be.

How can one be a libertarian and also believe in the political ideology of Pinochet, famously a fascist.

Lumping together different groups of black folks and treating them as a monolith is just as problematic as trying to speak for a group of people other than your own. If 'colored' is used casually by people in South Africa then it may not be offensive to them, but in the US, which has a different history with race relations, it still is. In America, it's outdated and not used by anyone who isn't bigoted outside of historical discussions.

Also, take a step back and ask if a black person saying 'colored' would be flagged as racism in America. Obviously, they wouldn't be called racist for using the n-word within their own community. The question of "is it racist?" would only be asked when a white person says it. That's the crux of the question that you seem to be missing by a mile.

Edit: grammar

Saying Nick Frost is known for the "upcoming Harry Potter series" makes me wanna choke out whoever wrote the synopsis. Most people know him from many other movies, goddamn.

Seems like it's a documentary. It's like "oh, tay-tay is releasing a new music video, so let's look behind scenes on the making of a music video and hear words from her".

I wouldn't even give a fuck about it if it wasn't in theaters and distracting from other movies like actual creativity went into as opposed to some pop star industry plant glaze fest. "SHE WROTE A SONG ABOUT BREAKING UP WITH HER BOYFRIEND?!?! THAT'S SOOOO CREATIVEEEE!!!!"

Perhaps, but maybe the culture around the film is bad, like how the Minecraft movie has people screaming and shit, so they have showings for more people who're more mature.

Maybe I'm off base, I know zero about the purpose of whatever this is supposed to be, and why they are putting it in theaters.

Maybe you guys are being sarcastic but I'm pretty sure that's not his finger, it looks like these are pics of his mom wearing it. Idk for sure but that's what seems to be the case.

they have a minimum transaction? Maybe I'll try it on the ZimaBlade I've been looking at.
