Eugene V. Debs' Ghost

According to one of the mods, the admins required it. According to the admins and bot creator, they didn’t put that into place. https://lemmy.dbzer0.com/post/29791336

Where he’ll work after losing to pay off legal debts.

Word cloud?

• Mail lists
• A google search every now and again

That’s how I do it. Mainly YouTube and the eMails. But some of the bands I most listen to are more indie/obscure, so they play to their fans more than people on the level of Metalica and Taylor Swift.

A lot of farmers use farm hands from Mexico with permits and a form of green card that allows them to get paid in American dollars during work seasons to bring back home, and get a path towards American citizenship than if they just entered the country with a passport or applied directly for a visa.

I don’t know if a lot of contractors do the same thing, but I wouldn’t be shocked. The labor is cheap and it kinda looks good for the camera. Adam Raguesa, a YouTube chef, has a good video on how farmers in the modern era grow the crops we eat on the table every day.

We can and we have for similar crimes. Loitering is a crime only for the poor, and then we send the homeless into camps and jails.

You owned a plant that was previously fine to own? Straight to jail, no questions asked.

Well, seeing as 1/3 of Americans are brainwashed by mass media into following whatever hype train is set forth by the rich, I can see that. If their favorite corporate owned and ran “news” told them they didn’t need to eat, they would stop eating.

America is home to racist morons, has been since July 4th, 1776. Most of the Founding Fathers owned slaves, and the Senate and Electoral College were established to ease the slave owners/states that their “property” would remain theirs.

We’ve been a nation of hypocritical xenophobes who taught freedom and liberty while giving none of it to the majority, and every time we try to fix that they double down and make things worse. Not a single time has the US Government (or any government for that matter, but that’s more a “whatabout” in this topic) given people what they wanted freely, and peacefully.

If we wanted to get rid of brain dead morons, we would solved it in the Civil War and Reconstitution. Second chance was in the 1960s when we were breaking down the barriers. Instead we still placated to the racists because we didn’t want to be too mean to the racist, sexist morons who started the mess in the first place.

Stallman is often batshit insane, but when it comes to tech he knows what he’s saying.

I would trust a doctor when he says about something about my stomach, I wouldn’t trust them about astrophysics.

I would trust Stallman about how computers can be misused and mistreated, same as Cory Doctorow. I wouldn’t trust both about a small part of history, unless it was obvious or very well cited.

Has been for centuries. Rules rarely applied to the leaders of Rome or China, as soon as someone noticed the trend, it was the end of those governments until it was time to reform and try again.

If you have enough money to have sway in your community or kingdom, you have enough money to start asking for favors and benefits. “I’ll give you this land, you give me something later.” “If I can guarantee enough grain for the next month, I can get a guarantee from you soon.”

You put someone into any power over others, someone wants that power, and some people are willing to do anything for that power.

Understandable. I’d greatly consider it (if I didn’t already turn in my mail-in ballot, and he offered to California) but the idea alone that I’d be giving my private info to “I am a massive fascist and enabler and funder of them” just so I can grift a grifter.

But the simple fact that even if I could give them what they demanded for payment, they would probably see a disabled, queer, poor person and go “Oh, well, you’re one of them so… Face the wall.”

I’d rather be a poverty-trapped queer in a red county as I am now, than sell my morals for money. That’s what people with the moral backbone of a chocolate eclair do.

Maybe someday fascist dipshits like Musk will face punishment beyond mean words on Twitter. That won’t happen but a man can dream.

Man I wish he would just… do something? Anything? Trump is running without issue despite being a criminal. Several fascists are colluding and acting if they win or lose.

And yet the Department of Justice’s head is doing fucking nothing to these people! Does he want America to die?

It will take weeks to move forward, by then the election is over and certified by the House. Musk gets what he wants, justice isn’t done in time, and even if it gets to the courts, the courts are bought and sold to the highest bidder on lawyers.

Laws are for poor people.

Literally using my joke unironically as proof that I’m somehow a troll. I couldn’t write this as satire if I tried.

The moment I hear anyone talk about genocide when referring to the US elections, I write them off as a useful idiot or Russian troll.

Glad to know that Ukrainians getting murdered by Republican polices isn’t enough for you. China killing Uyghurs? Not important for this dude. Moral consistency is for suckers!

That’s how you sound right now. Murder is bad, and I am opposed to it whenever its happening. Be it neighbors, countries, systemic, or individual. Sorry that being aginast to my tax dollars going to helping people be free from harm and helping people live better lives is somehow too much of a “single issue”.

Working with fascists gives fascists power. And fascists have money to give to centrists to move further right.

Why else would they not want money? It’s not like lives at home are in danger, the lives abroad clearly don’t matter much.

Happened to me before I made this account, and it’ll happen again.

Then he should stop running as he’d be going for a 3rd term, right? That’s unconstitutional.

Oh who am I kidding, rules are for the poor.

The day Ted Cruz leaves office is the day he stops taking vacations while his state is being frozen over or hit by a storm.

Whoops, AOC just admitted she’s… checks notes a secret Trump supporter Russian bot in office because she cares about the deaths of children. At least according to most people on Reddit/Lemmy.
