settlers cozying up in their LARP bunkers while indigenous Hawaiians die from being displaced by said settlers.
he’s basically presenting this “solarpunk” image of himself to greenwash all the Lex Luthor Elon Musk-stanning projects he’s doing on the side.
probably because she doesn’t want to sell what’s supposed to be an intimate relationship for capital

if anything, he made them worse by lobbying world governments for more draconian vaccine patents.
the reason why the first polio vaccine took off was because its creators refused to patent it.
yeah I hate the modern conception that adults can’t be in the closet
genAI apologists are so similar in mentality to the police bootlickers that regurgitate police news statements as if they’re the truth.
Krafton is lying to you and just because you saw them throw in an “ethical AI” buzzword you fell for it because you’ve been conditioned to be gullible and politically neutral when it comes to worker exploitation in the industry.
They’ve been caught ethicalwashing their Stable Diffusion use as being “an in-house proprietary model”. SD is the farthest thing possible from “ethical” genAI (it’s inherently an oxymoron anyways).
Here is them on YouTube boasting about how many workers they can lay off now that they’ve adopted outsourced exploited labor from outside artists for free.

Stardew Valley, a lot of Nintendo games using emulators(seriously just pick a game)
TIL starvation is a choice. you are disgusting
they aren’t killing themselves, the system of exploitation is. please stop shifting the blame to some of the poorest people on earth who can choose between shitty jobs like this and starving
Reminder that the USSR collapsed because they got their asses kicked in Afghanistan
these are true hackers living the DIY spirit, much respect to them!
yeah, a bunch of unions have already put out support statements for BDS. list them as an example for your own union to follow
maybe they could use a donation model like fediverse instances do
as a bazzite user, it’s kinda ironic that they’re dependent on GitHub cloud to keep their updates going. I wonder if they have a non-apartheid version?
start with the stuff that’s easy to get rid of and the rest will snowball down the line.
as for your workplace using Microsoft, nobody expects you as an individual to force your company to stop using them. the best way to achieve that in my opinion is through unions and collective actions.
vampires can’t enjoy gangbangs in Transylvania because the local cum soup gives them a tummy ache
you can’t apply unless you have undeniable proof of having been attacked by the state. it’s not as easy as the media says
promoting indigenous linguistics is absolutely good, the nuance is that some of those languages are a closed practice so it would be disrespectful for outsiders to speak them. it all comes down to autonomy which i think you’re agreeing with in the end of your reply
if you think the articles are too long then make your own that are shorter and appeal to AI bros
Native and mestizo aren’t the same thing. Mestizos are the people that assimilated and therefore enjoy privilege over indigenous people. identifying as mestizo is kind of the opposite of being indigenous because you’re adopting a colonial identity.
We don’t go asking Italians before we put stuff in Latin.
except Italians aren’t being genocided by any state for being Italian. Latin would be Spanish in this context, not Nahuatl. Latin was imposed through colonization around the world. And before anyone brings up the Aztec empire, it hasn’t existed in centuries.
Mexico forces Spanish upon indigenous groups to bring them closer to the conquistador ideal of a good Mexican citizen. them appropriating Nahuatl words to seem cool is more akin to racist Republicans stealing words from Black American English to market their products or politics.
Mexico is a bit different from America in their approach to assimilation in that they strive for mestizaje (making every Mexican mixed). You can see the ideology behind it in La raza cósmica.
I think it should be obvious why erasing indigenous cultures through state violence isn’t a benign thing.
are you open to guiding returning players that wanna get reacquainted with the game? I played it a long time ago but gave up because all the menus were overwhelming
