are you from the past?


are you from the past?


first they disabled Russian porsches and I didn’t care because I am not a russian owner of a porsche.
then they came for Ukrainian tractors and I didn’t care because I am not an Ukrainian owner of a tractor.
then step by step everything was digitally locked and I owned nothing and I was not really happy.


why did you change your profile pick?

not insinuating anything. just curious

“cost the economy” when your economy is based on consumerism then not buying as fast destroys the economy.


there is so much of an stretch that even trump didnt claim this (though he will later).
they only country that did was UAE which is terrorist supporter regime dictatorship.
"CAIR called the move “shocking and bizarre”, and some international American terrorism analysts were also critical. The Washington Post wrote: “CAIR and the Muslim American Society are not alone in their shock. Diverse groups across Europe were also added to the list, leaving many observers perplexed at the scope and sheer scale of the list”
my “most muslim countries”
so you were incorrect for both count.
I meant most middle eastern countries, and specifically the MB
there are 14 muslim countries in west Asia (or as colonial English called middle east). from that 14 only 5 countries banned that group.
so you are wrong two out of two again.
I love how you say specially MB, as if CAIR is banned by anyone outside of UAE (and now ofc course the racist texas government.)


Now you made me go and check the muslim brotherhood situation too to see how much of the “most Muslim countries” statement is true:
according to https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Muslim_Brotherhood#Designation_as_a_terrorist_organization
9 muslim countries banned this group.
and according to https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Islam_by_country there are 53 muslim countries.
so even the first part is bullshit.


again, my question was is it true that Council on American Islamic Relations is banned in most Muslim countries.
putting them both together (CAIR and muslim brotherhood) was the disgusting original intention of Texas.
and it seemed to have worked on you.
Its turtles cats all the way down.


CAIR
are you sure about that? “Council on American Islamic Relations (Cair) - the largest civil liberties group for American Muslims”
is
“banned in most muslim countries for being terrorists”
example of most please?


again… you are thinking like a neolibral.
why would i want to mortgage my house (not an asset) to borrow against.
you are (unknowingly) doing the capitalist work. you say borrow against like it is a good thing. those who borrow against their home, most of the time they have to do it (or they are irresponsible and that way they lose their house).
please before saying anything about this idea, think if your way is “home for a person or a family to live in” or “house as an asset”. anything that is the second it not a point for ordinary people. but it is good for the rentier system and leeches of them.
I am not against taxes. I am against taxes having to do with your primary home (not house asset) price which you only get if you sell and then have to buy even more expensive house if you want a place to live.
if your answer is that they should sell so that others can buy, then you haven’t helped house issue. you just hate people that own a home.
I don’t know why people that are against house being an financial asset, are in favor of property taxes. it does nothing (literally nothing) to lower the price of homes. if someone’s home property taxes gets to high for him then he has to sell it at the current market price to another person that has to do the same. property taxes on your own home (places you live) does nothing for house supply.
now taxing empty houses or rent is a good idea. and not at 1 or 5 percent. at the current income tax rate and do it for corpos too.


unpopular opinion:
I agree with them… kinda.
if you live in your house, that’s your home and you should not pay another rent based on its price.
using price of home for taxes causes every government official from mayor up to at best not really care if houses prices go up or actually fight policies that lower it.
I see a lot of people here that advocate for property taxes as a progressive tax but I don’t see it that way at all.
my take is government should tax empty houses and rents for landlords.
it is a mistake to follow Neo-liberal thinking of “you are the landlord of you own home” which is prevalent in financial world to make homes investment assets and count rent as GDP which make government be happy that number go up.
I hear here that “boomers” like high price of houses so they “deserve” punishment of high property taxes.
but if you live you own home and don’t make money of it, you don’t get any positive from house prices going up. most “news” about someone selling their house for a lot of money and going into smaller house is just them needing that money for healthcare and living, not investment.
and this mentality makes a self-fulfilling situation that prevent from actual affordability of houses.
fight for high taxes on empty houses and rents. don’t make people living in their own homes renters of government.


my unpopular opinion was that this is very near sound money in islam (gold or silver) until I saw the interest part which is forbidden in islam.


Poor soul.
Reminds of the soft-drink brand corona.


“2025-08-11”
that is from 3 months ago.
I think that was another repo.
this repo I included had update until today.


I have the opposite opinion about this issue.
MIT-like licenses allow corpos to take over a project and make it private step by step (kinda like boiling a frog), first create a “open source” fork and fund it to the max. then step by step make it not open source. after a while (could be years) there is no open source influence and most of the project is under the command of the corpo.
the most recent one being android.
I have come to the conclusion that people that use MIT-like licenses don’t care at all about software freedom (which is kinda obvious if you read MIT license itself).
so I try to contribute to projects that are immune to that by using copy-left licenses ,so called viral licenses that “limit” the ability of corpos to take over a project with the intention of making private or even create a private fork of it.
you are corporation and want to contribute to a project to make it better? cool, so it would not matter to you if the license is MIT or GPL? right??? you don’t want to do a sneaky fork and make it private, right? so you would have no issue with GPL.
when free software devs recommend using MIT-like licenses I am reminded of the meme cartoon about sheep recommending befriending the wolf.
It is almost like they learned nothing from software development trends of rent seeking private sector.
the beauty of GPL-like is that I can be sure when I help it make better I am not helping a private entity later take it over and privatize it. I want to help humanity not help private sector make money with propriety software.
when you make your license MIT-like you are not saying I am maximizing software freedom. you are saying I don’t care what happens to this software.


now they are good (western) terrorists. cool.


for the life of me I can’t make it be unselected. try it for your self. from web page select setting and then de-select the undetermined and select a language (for example english) and then press save at the bottom. come back to setting page and see undetermined be selected again. the English or other languages you selected are saved correctly but for the life of me I cant disable undetermined.
it pollutes my feed with german french and other languages that I don’t understand.


I think it is trafficking. forced drugs to make them addicts to be easier to control.


gross but accurate.
I think you are too nice.
they are actively trying to own everything.
And then they don’t need to seize anything, because you are forced to work to the bone (even more than you are right now) to just afford your own house rent/property tax.
Companies love to become like old Lord and counts and own the land/products and you just rent and work for them.
