It is absolutely possible to go on vacation without oppressing or exploiting others. It happens all the time. You can avoid Airbnbs and stay in a hotel, camp, sleep in a car, or just stay home.
I really don’t understand how you came to the conclusion that you cease possession of something the moment you end physical contact with it. You’re gonna have to walk me through that one if you want to actually argue that point.
The whole point of mutual aid is to prevent that though. It organizes people together to stop a small group of people from taking everything.
The hard part is getting everyone to participate in mutual aid when we live in a dog eat dog world that was built by the small group of well armed people.
Absolutely! And by improving your own home, you are directly improving the community and environment for those around you while others do the same for you.
That is objectively wrong according to most historians and anthropologists. It is propaganda written by those in power to justify their abuse of power. What you are describing is generally seen as sociopathic and antisocial behavior. And this may come as a shock to you, but most people are not sociopaths.
Since no one is answering seriously, I will try. There is a distinct difference in anarchist philosophy between property and possession which I will try to explain with housing.
Property is something that is used to oppress people. Which is why anarchist philosophy aims to abolish all property. In this case, housing that is being used for Airbnbs takes a house from someone that could use it to create a home for themselves and their family and instead uses that land and building to make a profit .
Possession on the other hand would be someone using that land and building to make a home for themselves and their family, not to make a profit but to survive and exist.
Owning one home for yourself is not a property but a possession but owning multiple homes that you use to make a profit is property. So the anarchist solution to this is to give that Airbnb to someone who could make it into a permanent home, not a short term rental.
Metal is my favorite genre but it’s not something I can do at karaoke, it’s just not the vibe at the place I go to. Closest I’ve done to metal is Mother by Danzig lol
I’d still recommend just going there even if you don’t sing and just check out the atmosphere. Not every karaoke bar is as welcoming as the one I go to. There’s one bar down the street that I know does a lot of live metal music and does karaoke on Sundays but I’m unfortunately unable to go at those days.
But also to answer the post, I’ve been really into Testament and Otep recently. Somehow I’ve never listened to Testament until recently but they fucking rock!
I’ve been going to a karaoke bar every Saturday since the year started . I can’t recommend it enough.
A good karaoke bar is a great time. You don’t have to sing if you don’t want to. And if you do sing, it doesn’t matter if you suck or can’t sing or stumble your words or forget some lyrics. Going up there and singing is an accomplishment in itself and no one at the bar is going to boo you or kick you off the stage. Worst thing that happens is you get no applause at the end but a good bar with a good vibe will always have people cheering you on.
Going regularly and getting up there and singing and not caring if I suck has done so much to improve my confidence and self esteem. And trust me, I suck at singing but I promise you that it doesn’t matter. No one will care that you suck. If you go up to sing, just go and have fun with it.
The book Johnny Got His Gun kind of answers this question. In the book, a WWI soldier gets blown up by an artillery shell and wakes up in a hospital missing most of his body. He has lost his arms, legs, nose, mouth, eyes, and ears.
In the end he learns he can communicate with a nurse by tapping his head in Morse code. So it would seem as long as you could move you head with your neck, you can still communicate with others.
Source is they made it the fuck up.
77.3 million voted for Trump in 2024 out of a population of about 342 million.Not even 23% of all Americans voted for Trump in 2024.
There is an experiment in Russia that has been breeding foxes for over 50 years now. The goal is to understand how domestication changes an the physiology of an animal. They breed the foxes that show the most tame and docile behaviors towards humans in an effort to recreate the process of changing wolves to dogs.
On the flip side, they also breed the foxes that are most aggressive and hostile towards people. One they will get too powerful and get loose…
While I’m not an expert in this area, it is also possible their cyber campaigns specifically target improperly defended industries. Attacking a target is much easier than defending one, that is true in every field and most industries don’t take their cyber security very seriously. A cyber attack that is funded and sponsored by a large state like Russia is sure to find many victims. Most industries are easy targets because they have thousands of people who are not trained in to defend against even the most basic of cyber attacks.
And of course only the successful attacks make the news, the unsuccessful one are never reported.
Political anarchy is not inherently against rules. Anarchy does not mean that everything is on fire and everyone steals from others and do whatever they want, that’s just a common misconception.
Also it’s only 3 pretty basic rules, nothing particularly crazy about them
How long could you expect the color to hold? I’m assuming it fades over time?
Ah well it would appear I should have read the original comment with a little more attention
I don’t think so. Yeah the researchers broke the rules of the subreddit but it’s not like every other company that uses AI for advertising, promotional purposes, propaganda, and misinformation will adhere to those rules.
The mods and community should not assume that just because the rules say no AI does not mean that people won’t use it for nefarious purposes. While this study doesn’t really add anything new we didn’t already know or assume, it does highlight how we should be vigilant and cautious about what we see on the Internet.
Unfortunately that idiot also has a gun
Also many of these “vigilantes” are not doing this out of the goodness of their hearts. This is a popular subgenre of hate-porn on YouTube that gets a lot of attention. I wouldn’t trust anyone who does this for clout and attention to put in the work that is needed to ensure that they get the right person since you can just about fake any evidence on a YouTube video. This is the equivalent of giving a homeless person thousands of dollars and putting it on YouTube for views.
Like I said, I still agree with the comparison and even more now that I see both numbers. But the initial numbers you used were not as related as the comment made them seem
While I don’t disagree with the essence of what you’re saying, those numbers are a bit misleading. There’s only about 38.8 registered Republicans in the US which comes to about 11.1% of the US population.
Even if you take the 2024 election results, only about 22.6% of the population voted Republican
That’s where community and mutual aid come in. You have neighbors who also would like to not lose their homes either so they would protect yours like you would protect theirs. The importance and strength of community rises as the power of the state diminishes.
