Music piracy isn’t rampant at all. It’s the “immigrant crime is out of control” of the internet.

Japanese corporate culture is atrocities ≠ American corporate culture isn’t atrocious
Both need some major reforms in order to be just non-awful, let alone acceptable.
- Comment on 34% of the US population doesn't vote. Why do polticalitcians cling to the idea that these voters can't be reached? 5 days ago:
why make it harder for someone to choose that than necessary?
Ironically, that’s THE main reason for people not voting.
I never miss a chance to vote and I don’t advocate for others not to vote, but I understand how some people would balk at overcoming a shitload of hurdles (including but not limited to several hours in lines surrounded by too many people, difficulties getting a valid ID etc) in order to vote for the lesser evil, which is still an evil.
If you make it easier to vote, including without having to have onerous interactions with people, mandatory voting isn’t such a hassle and neither is voluntary voting.

Why not? The ways of Pope Zendaya are inscrutable 🤷

The less Timothy Chalamet anywhere, the better.
- Comment on Next pope suggestion 6 days ago:
It’s Zendaya, a woman of color who’s about as cool and modern as people who didn’t pay much attention thought Francis was.
Mostly, though, it’d piss off American regressives so damn much 😁

Guess so! Right there with you myself!
I hope the next pope is as cool and modern as people not paying attention thought Francis was. And at least as infuriating to American conservatives.
I suggest Zendaya.

- Comment on FDA making plans to end its routine food safety inspections, sources say - CBS News 1 week ago:
Probably.
I’d worry much more about letting such kakistocratic state governments as those of Texas, Florida, and Mississippi be the final arbiters of what’s too poisonous for tens of millions of people to unknowingly ingest, though…

- Comment on Trump Admin Considering Giving $10,000 To Each Person In Greenland To Annex The Island 2 weeks ago:
Nothing crazy about it. 10k each/half a billion overall is an infinitesimal pittance compared to what the people and government of Greenland would lose.
- Comment on Trump Admin Considering Giving $10,000 To Each Person In Greenland To Annex The Island 2 weeks ago:
Significantly more, actually. Especially when you consider the social safety net that includes such things as universal health care, five weeks paid leave minimum, and 50 weeks paid parental leave.
There’s no way that the pittance being floated would cover a TENTH of that for a full year, let alone having your people and country molested by EXTREMELY under-regulated predatory corporations for all eternity while having no hope of achieving better conditions through political representation.
You’d have to be a COMPLETE idiot to want anything to do with a deal that awful.

- Comment on Argentina receives $42 bn from international financial institutions 2 weeks ago:
The program is “a vote of confidence in the Government’s determination to advance reforms, foster growth & deliver higher standards of living for the Argentine people,” IMF boss Kristalina Georgieva posted on X, hailing Milei’s “impressive progress in stabilizing the economy.”
Just in case you thought competence, honesty, or even SANITY was required to be in charge of more money than regular people can possibly imagine 🤦🤬
Anyone with even the most superficial knowledge of the current Argentine government and WITHOUT the ideological blinders of religiously worshipping objectively disastrous austerity politics can tell that Captain Ancap is absolutely PLUNDERING everyone in Argentina who’s not already rich, especially the ones already struggling the most.
