Please do so, it’s terribly lonely being the only poster some weeks DX

The continuous US states are 8,080,460 square kilometres.
Europe is 10,186,000 square kilometres.
In what world is that “not far off”?

We have vacation days?

“all of Europe could fit inside the 48 continental states alone” - are you sure about that, fam?
Not far off.
- Comment on In the US, is this actually the moment past the point of no return? 2 months ago:
It might be. Only time, and the actions of Americans themselves, will tell.
It’s the biggest crisis in my lifetime. But we have survived other crisises, some-fucking-how, so maybe we’ll luck our way out of this one too.
God has a special providence for fools, drunks, and the United States of America.

- Comment on Solar modules now selling for less than €0.06/W in Europe 2 months ago:
Local manufacturing is politically advantageous and may employ some people at the same time, but that’s where benefits end.
There are legitimate strategic concerns with sourcing things long-term from potentially hostile states.
Europe should absolutely take advantage of current Chinese production to improve their own green energy efforts, but looking into local production is not just a ‘for-show’ move. As sanctions on Russia show, dependence on markets that can potentially turn hostile can be very damaging.

- Comment on She-Ra Lives! 2 months ago:
I promise you that there remains ‘enough work’ in early sedentary societies. The work, in fact, is endless - moreso than in a hunter-gatherer society, which is more reliant on circumstance than labor.
Divergence of roles seems to be connected to control of social power. As men come to dominate one sphere (typically warfare, since the average woman in the pre-modern period is intermittently disadvantaged in that by several months of pregnancy numerous times throughout her life), that power imbalance is used to strip power from women in other spheres (social, economic, sexual, etc).

many finds indicate that on this planet existed civilisations different and more advanced even than are own
Oh lord.
- Comment on She-Ra Lives! 2 months ago:
Not just nomadic. Many sedentary societies lack strong gender divisions in labor as well.
- Comment on Did Native Americans Really Live in Balance with Nature? | Atun-Shei Films 2 months ago:
I love that this is being discussed more broadly nowadays. Understanding other societies, in both their glories and their imperfections, means not putting them on a pedestal - which imposes the values of the observer on the observed, regardless of the truth.

- Comment on Sympathy for their PTSD 3 months ago:
You would think it would be easy to find some poor conscript fuck who didn’t run over civilians in a bulldozer struggling with the fact that they were coerced into being part of a genocide, but no, CNN goes with the guy who crushed human beings. Even as attempted hasbara, that’s some high-level incompetence in CNN.

“She’s never stated” to “Well she doesn’t REALLY mean it” lmao

Given Harris has never and has stated she will never call for a permanent ceasefire, I have no idea where you think your gotcha moment is here.
Do you people even try, or is honesty against the terms of your religion or something?
- Comment on Lemmy's gaining popularity, so I thought new people should see this. 3 months ago:
Oh yes, just like I’m sure she was being completely sincere when she said all Biden had to do to earn her vote was ‘call for a ceasefire’ within the coming year.
Turns out when MLs don’t say a single thing in good faith, people start remembering and stop taking them seriously. :)
- Comment on Lemmy's gaining popularity, so I thought new people should see this. 3 months ago:
Hey, remember when you said you’d vote for the Dem candidate if Biden was replaced? How’s that going?

- Comment on Transphobia in the fediverse 3 months ago:
Speaking as a mod, even speaking as a mod who’s terminally online, we can’t have eyes everywhere at once. Somewhere, in the depths of the comment chains, we always miss something, or skim over it. Reporting isn’t adding to our work load (generally), it’s a great help. You shouldn’t hesitate to report anything that seems like it breaks the rules/expresses bigotry.
- Comment on Transphobia in the fediverse 3 months ago:
It may be more effective to bring up messaging the moderators of the individual communities where you’ve seen it. Also, generous use of the report button.

Because this was always the plan.

The actual employees threatened to resign en masse, because the employees own equity in the company and want this dogshit move too.
