We reserve them for tankies and fashies with boners for world domination.

Our neighbors are literally the fashies right now. They're dismantling our government as we speak. We're literally being conquered.

You said violence isn't 'secure' but then said you need violence to protect yourself from tankies and fascists, unless they're already in your country I guess?

I'm just not following. And I'm not sure how your last statements relate to the idea of 'nothing won by violence is secure'? How is the embarrassment that is the Democrats related to fighting back against tyranny with violence if necessary? If anything Democrats are the argument that peaceful methods are failing, not an argument that violence will gain us nothing.

Unless you are taking over the entire world (through peace somehow), countries are what we have. Honestly doesn't really matter the name. Call it what you like but the concept is going to exist.

How are you going to keep other groups from just conquering you?

If I'm not understanding, can you explain what level I'm supposed to be thinking at? Is this some sort of anarchy thing where everyone exists as their own tiny little sovereign homestead?

What country has ever been won through peace?

I absolutely love when games do that. Just a random, faceless dude for the second player that isn't acknowledged at all by the plot. My favorite coop games growing up were all like that.

I started skipping a couple of marvel movies after endgame and now the trains kind of left me behind. Interconnected movies are awesome until you fall behind. Then you've got a bunch of movies you have to watch first. Or at least that's what my brain feels like I have to do (even if it's not true).

It's still possible, but only with a physical Kindle device and I believe only one of the older ones. You can copy files off those devices to your PC and crack them that way.

Otherwise I'm not aware of any other method. It really sucks too as my favorite genre literally only exists in the Amazon ecosystem (small indie authors that rely on KU and so don't publish anywhere else)

Just call it 100 freedom units and everyone will love it.

Could just switch to grams. Selling by fraction is the problem not by weight itself.

Honestly selling the company is understandable. Getting out is normal.

It's the ones that turn into sociopaths that bother me.

Parents signed up for one of those porn blocker services. I didn't have the password to the service, but I did have the password to my dad's user account (shared PC back then). Managed to figure out how to copy his active session cookie to my own user account and was able to freely turn on and off the service.

Ordered food at Sonic on their app. After I ordered, it popped up with ads for travel, various credit cards, etc. Completely crazy to me that they're triple dipping on monetization now (sell me food, sell my data and then sell me other shit while trying to sell me food.)

Which is honestly just the end game of a practice that's been getting worse for decades. It's partly why stuff was outsourced. The more layers between us and the atrocities, the less humanity can focus on reacting to them.

There's been a concerted effort to introduce as many possible layers as they can to divide people and break up communities in order to break humans ability to empathize (and then use that empathy to affect change).
