Rioting Pacifist

It might get a bump TBH the right hate Sanchez, a couple of years ago they thought they had him on the ropes and put pressure on him to call an election thinking he would lose, he did it, gained vote share and got a big enough vote to form a progressive coalition 🤣.

I’m to the left of him, but I think he’s done a decent job of running the country (one of the only incumbents to survive COVID despite a huge toll that it has in Spain) and occasionally allowing the left of his coalition to do good things, especially around international policy.

The majority of the Seats are FPTP, so it’s a common trend to chase the crazies.

I think we need to blame voters less and systems more, all non-proportional system have a rightwards shift built in.

In theory this could work leftwardly but as these countries tend to depend heavily on capitalist media to tell voters who is capable of winning in their district, the leftward shift is usually described as unrealistic & impossible, whereas the right shift is usually exaggerated and considered a real threat to the center-right/center-left.

You see the same effect in the UK, US, Russia (when they had elections), etc.

Whereas Ireland, Scandanvia, tend to have stable liberal-to-progressive governments rather than flip between a center-left & center-right establishment party that is constantly chasing far right voters.

I think the best system to counteract this is STV (used in Ireland) as it:

• Delivers proportional results
• Removes the need for the media to tell you who can win because you can rank who you like
• Doesn’t use party-lists (one of the issues with PR is the list system invites corruption as loyalty to the list maker, is what secures your job).

FTFY

What did they do?

Why do you think Teslas are the best?

Yeah but he’s probably lying, so it’s hard to tell how much better Ukraine are doing.

Hard to convince people thier future is in your country when their still a lingering smell of PiS everywhere.

You can only raise taxes… so much.

I dunno have we tried holding the billionaires by their legs and giving them a good shake.

Also MMT

Argentina is bearing much of the brunt of rising Chinese imports, as local factories shut down and lay off workers in a manufacturing sector that employs almost a fifth of its workforce.

Lol, yeah let’s blame China for the failures of AnCaps.

In most cases, China exports mostly manufactured goods and imports raw materials. But the relationship goes far beyond those basics.

No shit, it’s called economic imperialism the west has been doing it for decades (pretty much since it violently gave up on regular imperialism). It’s bad but let’s not pretend this is some Chinese innovation.

Ad hominem attacks on the site rather than dealing with the subject matter

You realize the whole grayzone article is one big Ad hominem right?

The problem with the myth of the fascist making the trains run on time, is Musolini reaped the benefits of the Social Democrats work.

So now Italy has facists who can’t even run the cable cars on time.

In the past, that kind of activity by U.S. agents has been a normal part of major international events like the Olympics.

Has it? NPR should expand on that because it seems like Trump is using ICE as a sort of pretorian guard (not actually trusting them with his life but using them as goons to look tough while the SecretSeevice do the real work)

over concerns that they could be remotely accessed by China and used to spy on sensitive sites.

Sufficiently advanced paranoia is indiciferable from magic.

Is it using a subspace transmitter? because anything else is going to be easy to detect with a firewall.

Like I think the UK should use British made cameras to spy on its people, but the paranoia around China being pumped out is ridiculous.

Good

I’m in, anything with less Tankies and less channers is good.

What’s the best instance to use, I assume I can keep my current user and just view posts via piefed.social

Better than ongoing death, but does anyone trust a state to keep their word, espexially one heades by a former Al-Qaeda

USSR should have left Cuba with a Nuke, and I’m generally anti-Nuke

As if China isn’t one of Israel’s biggest trading partners.

None, if it’s not in a Debian repo I don’t deploy it on my stable server.

It’s not really about docker itself, I just don’t think software has married enough if it’s not packaged properly

I use Debian

You litterally can’t form an independent workers union in China, it’s Bad.

You can’t move to the city you work in, both to keep house prices artificially low and to prevent organizing.

You can criticize the government online but the moment you try and organize a protest you get a knock on the door.

The state aren’t openly shooting protestors in the street these days but it doesn’t make it a good place for regular citizens.
