How is it not blatantly clear that Trump is there to wreck the economy and create civil chaos? Trump is the best thing that could have happened for Putin

This is why I do it.

You know how the surroundings are now and you don’t know how they are going to be when you have to drive out again. Makes sense to prepare for the unknown

That is also a sign of depression. Not saying OP has it, but might be worth talking the time to exclude it

By flawed I mean that there is a hierarchy where power consolidates at the top between a small number of humans. The reason why I call this a flaw is based on three premises:

1. My statement above about hierarchy of power consolidation
2. Power corrupts
3. Humans are inherently self serving. We protect ourselves and our own

As for China; take Hong Kong and or Tiananmen Square. Or something more straight forward; their conflict with Taiwan. They are pushing a narrative that Taiwan belongs to them, even though Taiwan clearly does not belong to them, which then reduces the statement to propaganda and an attempt to reframe what is true

To be clear, I favor communism as an idea. It’s just the implementations of the idea historically have been flawed. I don’t know anything about communistic subgroups. Take China for example; changing historic events by pushing an alternative “truth” is not focusing on facts. A list of books is a good indicator, but the contents of the books are also relevant

Yeah. Historic communism has the same problem as capitalism. People in unchecked power at the top. Doesn’t matter what ideology we follow if we refuse to fix root problems.

It’s also a problem that people love to gather around either worshipping or hating a certain individual, party or political direction. I wish people would focus more on the politics beneath, facts, statistics and causality

I disagree. He didn’t lower himself, he acted like the only grown up in the group while the others were throwing hissy fits

Just wanted to say: react now. Their actions will slowly get normalized and it will be a much harder fight once culture starts working against you

I made my own using wofi, https://github.com/deifyed/dotfiles/blob/main/dot_local%2Fbin%2Fexecutable_emoji_prompt

Doesn’t auto insert though, but puts it in the clipboard. Paste as many times as you need. If you figure out how to get it to insert into the focused application, do let me know 😁

Just brain storming here:

You could expose a bare git repo on the server with a git hook that runs Docker compose up on push.

You could also have GitHub actions ssh in and run git pull && docker compose up on push to main.

Careful. Nintendo can sue you for that

Vim, plain text files and syncthing. Best combo I’ve found after years of searching

Damn. You guys need to take back your country
