Political parties can rarely afford to proclaim themselves to be revolutionary, or they’ll quickly get banned.

That’s not what people demand, it’s a side effect of users demanding software be open source and developers saying that’s not economically viable.

The 4a 5G, ironically. Looks only a little bit wider, but the difference is quite significant in practice. It is on its last legs though and the replacement (9a) is in the mail.

My wrist hurts, gimme back my tiny pixel 4a.

It’s not quite that ambiguous. I find that when you’re willing to engage with fascist rhetoric and the underlying worldview, you can see the patterns emerge that these scholars have pointed out.

I absolutely agree that (neo)liberal western societies usually only engage with it in order to isolate differences to feel better about themselves. That was my whole point actually. If you understand it’s possible that a society or movement partially but not entirely meets the criteria for fascism, that’s an actual starting point for a conversation to counteract it. Rather than doing the fig leaf thing from above and say “see we’re technically not fascist” as an excuse to shut down that exact conversation.

While not exclusive to it, they are elements of fascism.

It’s funny that we have all these lists and essays and books on how fascist ideology and policy is a confluence of many such elements, yet people still act as tough “is this person/party/state fascist?” is a simple yes or no question with no gray area.

Futureless or featureless?

YT assumes you’re always binge-watching. Which people often are apparently.

Just use your subscription tab, like we did in the olden days.

Droid-ify is also great.

WTF is that last search result though 🫣

Yes, but don’t ask me for cake recipes. I’m not in the mood.

Have you experienced what passes for “an actual TV that plays Netflix” these days?

Miss me with that shit.

Does XFCE today look any less late 90s than when I tried it 10 years ago?
