        As much as I’m loathe to admit it, my cheap Asus Chromebook is likely more than what 90 percent of humanity requires. And most of them could easily just get away with using a phone or tablet instead.

        I’m an old school guy. I love a good tower with a pair of monitors and stuff to do my editing and 3D design. But even those intensive tasks are getting better on smaller form factors.

        It’s just not my world anymore. I’ve aged out of it.

    “Believe all women” has had devastating consequences on women who have been raped or sexually assaulted.

    “Defund the police” actually hurts POC and lower-income communities the most, because the rich just hire their own.

    Everyone is all uppity about climate change, but what’s going to kill us first is deforestation and the overuse of agricultural practices. It takes about 100 years for soil to replenish nutrients. It takes 200-400 years for new soil to be created if left alone. We’re fucked.

    No one is right in the Israel-Gaza conflict and I feel like many of the pro-palestine people’s ideals are closer to those of nazi’s than the ideals of all the people they’re calling nazi’s.

      Yes, except the Israeli government are the ones creating ghettos, actively stealing land and ethnic cleansing.

      Neither Hamas or the state of Israel are good, or right, but one of these two has put way more points on the board over the last half century, and it ain’t Hamas.

      Hamas is the result of Isreal’s brutality, not the cause.
