Why do I lack the ability to trust white people who claim to be progressive or leftist? by blakeus12 in c/chapotraphouse@hexbear.net
[-] blakeus12@hexbear.net 30 points 7 months ago

i can't really blame you at all. most progressive white people i've met start saying wild shit once they think you trust them enough.

hot take, feel free to dunk but holy shit, all the posts from white people being like "let's kill all the white people" is insufferable "i'm one of the good ones!" nonsense and it really should stop by blakeus12 in c/chapotraphouse@hexbear.net

I have the intelligently hide dock option enabled, as i feel like it makes most apps feel less cluttered. Is there an extension to make hitting the "menu" key, or what would be the windows key if we weren't on linux, make the dock appear? Thank you in advance everyone! Happy holidays!

I am not a fan of cinnamon and i'd like to try gnome or kde plasma. i have heard great things about both and i tried gnome before, but i really hated how it worked with linux mint (particularly that it replaced the login screen with that of the ubuntu login). is there a way to avoid that? any other general tips? thank you everyone!

why does everyone call it the israel hamas war when the PFLP and DFLP and PLF etc are fighting as well? (hexbear.net)

Title. it makes no sense, but i assume it's a subtle way to paint the war as a religion thing as Hamas is islamic to distract the focus from colonialism and apartheid.

Hexbear federation megathread by blakeus12 in c/meta@lemm.ee
[-] blakeus12@hexbear.net 30 points 1 year ago

every system has had deaths under it. for example, i could say: not to defend nazis, but are you really going to ignore the deaths under capitalism or the bodo league massacre, the vietnam war crimes, agent orange, the laos bombings, the civilian killings in iraq, the drone strikes that killed civilians all across the middle east, slavery, all of the deaths causes by poverty, etc.

Obviously it has happened under communism as well but nowhere near to the scale under capitalism (for the most part, see Pol Pot, the Red Terror, Holodomor)
