CoD is propaganda for the MIC and US imperialism, not gun companies.

In the simplest terms, the right of usufruct means you can use things, but you cannot deny them to others when you're not using them, and you do not have the right to destroy them to prevent others from using them. So, for example, the farmer is welcome to grow crops on a given plot of land - but if they choose not to, somebody else can use the land.

Given this, it's easy to see that this principle already exists in public libraries. You can borrow a book to help you start a business, but you can't prevent others from reading it after you - or threaten to destroy the book unless you receive the profits of the next reader's business. You can hold the book exclusively (of other library patrons), but only temporarily.

I like to say, “that’s the year I was born” to the cashier at stores, no matter what my total is. It’s really funny when it’s like $19.35. Well, funny for me, they just give me that dead in the eyes look that I remember having when I worked retail.

I literally called this the day the dude caught bird flu. Holy shit this whole country needs nuked, but the carbon output and radiation poisoning wouldn’t be fair to the global south.

“I can’t read so I’ll blame it on you.”

Hmm some sort of crisis with the south nullifying federal laws. I wonder where we’ve seen that before?

Im only kidding, this isn’t really the same situation, but there’s definitely shades of gray shared.

Hamas charter excerpt.
16. Hamas affirms that its conflict is with the Zionist project not with the Jews because of their religion. Hamas does not wage a struggle against the Jews because they are Jewish but wages a struggle against the Zionists who occupy Palestine. Yet, it is the Zionists who constantly identify Judaism and the Jews with their own colonial project and illegal entity.

My conspiracy theory is that after JFK tried to gut the 3 letter agencies because he found out they were lying to him (all of this is fact, not the conspiracy), the three letter agencies murdered him, and then his brother, and they’ve told every president since what will happen to them if they stand up to the agencies. Not that anyone since JFK would have done much for the people even given the chance, but it’s entirely prevented from being a possibility now.

Western Chauvinism in crisis, as it’s presented with more and more evidence that it is not in fact inherently superior.

If you watch them, they set themselves on fire and die. It’s hilarious.

Is this Guy related to Chris Farley? I definitely see some resemblance.

Degrowth addresses that, contrary to your opinion. Degrowth in the global north provides the space for the global south to properly develop, something that has been systematically denied to them in many places by western powers through unequal exchange and neocolonialism.
