Fair point. If you are in immediate danger then yeah, not gonna argue. But if you are able to stay and do something, that should be preferable.
I am brown (Filipino). I won’t be leaving. My sister lives here. My nephew. They can go somewhere safe, but there aren’t many places safe from a hot, land war in this world like the US observably is. Mayyybe Canada, but enjoy that economy.
And go where? Where in the world is safe right now? I thought about living in the Philippines with my family, but China is probably waging war soon. Europe? With the way America is headed and the war is going? Let’s assume Ukraine wins: Europe is out of gas and will militarize and right wing governments are rising with German nationalism leading the battle drums, Ukraine gonna be in an economic slump, Russia is gonna be subservient and dependent on China because its economy is gone without a win.
That leaves countries with metropolises that are suffering from westerners gentrifying their neighborhoods with the USD being strong in these places. We are really going to make the poor in other nations pay the price for our government’s doing again, but this time by our own choice? That’s not any better imo. Unless you are leaving with the specific intent on making the place you are going better, stay home please
A 20 dollar per device settlement for selling your data for billions. And the lawyers get paid big. Who the fuck is working for the working class? The law? Defense attorneys? Leaders?

copyright and all of intellectual property was meant to “promote the progress of science and useful arts”—it has since eroded it and held it up for ownership by capitalists public domain was originally 14 years after publication. 14 years ago was 2010—imagine if everything before 2010 was in the public domain. All video games. All movies. All books, songs, etc. How much of our culture could be preserved? Compare that to now. How much of what you imagined is owned by a corporation? Managed by shareholders? Has the commons been fostered, or has it been divided into fiefdoms?
we also should be supporting open source games—if it’s open source, it’s preservable! these people are already essentially giving up any revenue just to make something for someone else, we should be lifting them up, too!
These guys are literally the bottom of the totem poll (none of them are managers etc), there’s a reason theres a players union
They’re rich, but they ain’t likely upper class
Can we not shift this from the very important issue of how stupid this streaming situation is into the much less important, albeit still valid, “one rich athlete spends slightly less than his fair share in this one instance”—no one is defending this guy because he’s rich, only because it’s the irony of the situation
The more people who pirate, the better. It doesn’t matter who as long as everyone is getting away with it equally
Who are they stealing my personal data from, corporation?? Are they stealing it from me or from you??
It saves ewaste. In 6 years, will macOS still be supported on these machines? Maybe. Will an open source distro be supported? If it’s still thriving, yeah.
Lethal company is literally just old school d&d tho
You go into dungeons, try to avoid all the monsters because they can kill you in one hit, get the treasure they protect and gold is xp.
What evidence do you have that oligarchs in any nation cannot influence your TikTok algorithm? Like… we should assume they can by default until proven innocent.
