I didn’t actually see it myself, but I heard a lot of people thought it looked AI at first and that it was genuine (alternate angles and stuff like you said). It’s good to check up on it (sounds like you actually put the effort in) so we can try to keep our facts straight, as hard as that is these days.

Just FYI to people that you can get remanufactured ink cartridges for a fraction of the price (around half) of OEM. They are sometimes modified to contain more ink in the same body. The company I purchased from included a prepaid bag to send used cartridges back for reuse.

Also while I’m in PSA mode “REDUCE, REUSE, and then recycle”. Sometimes we skip over the first two steps since reducing is not marketable and reusing rarely is (although reusing printer cartridges appears to be a sustainable business).

I think that video was confirmed

The entire concept of “for-profit news” is a conflict of interest.

Technically all of these responses are political. I think we know what OP meant though, and the discussion is all the better for it!

Tbf Gold_E_Lox was being snarky in the first place

Nobody has mentioned mattermost yet. I haven’t stress tested it by any means, but I found it too be decent.

Given that you’re underage, I’m going to lock this thread before it gets weird.

I hope you can find the community and support you need, especially if it is offline.

The other hand of the issue is the Democrats have repeatedly failed to recognize and manage the necessary decline of capitalism. It’s “necessary” because capitalism had globalized and essentially run out of land and people too exploit.

Exploited countries will push (are pushing) back, and/or look for other options (China, etc). Because the Democratic party is a pro-capitalism party, they are unable to recognize this situation. Republicans recognize it and turn up the heat, both internally and externally. For a lot of (foolish) Americans, this looks like an appealing option.

The democrats could sweep 2028, but it means the snapback is going to be even more intense in 2032 when they fail to govern.

I think we are going to have another decade or two or that, with the way things are looking

No offense (sounds like you questions were answered anyway), but I’m going to remove your post since c/asklemmy is not for support! Feel free to DM or use c/Lemmy if you need any more help!

tribal members have been citizens far longer than the United States has even existed

I understand the point you are making here, although I want to add that most American Indians were not United States citizens until 1924.

The United States is not their country, but a force that is occupying their land. It is more complicated than that, but it needs to be a part of the conversation, in my opinion.

If anyone is interested in the liberation of American Indians/First Nations I encourage you to get a copy and read “Custer Died for Your Sins” today!

Also, if you don’t want to be a colonizer, the first step is to actually study the history of the people in your local region. The history of indigenous people and settlers is not necessarily separate, but intertwined.

In order to stand together with tribes, most of whom gave been held in poverty and disrespected (and worse!) by the United States, it is important to thoroughly understand the topics at hand so we can bring about the proper restitution. Despite the efforts of settlers to erase these people and their history, we have the opportunity to stand with them and write a new chapter.

I don’t think you meant it that way, but there are many many lands that belong to American Indians, but are not federally recognized due to:

• never having been ceded in a treaty
• the US government outright breaking the treaty

I’m also down to go with “all the land is theirs regardless as the treaties were signed under duress”.

Since 1492!!!

Both of those countries took notes from the United States, particularly with respect to the success of the genocide of American Indians.

Who could have possibly predicted this?

Yeah the answer is to log off

This could work if you live in Venice or something, but i meant *taking* damnit

Under capitalism, kayaking the time to get to know your neighbors is revolutionary behavior. When things go sideways, the people in direct geographic proximity to you are going to be the ones in best position to support you (and one another). It’s best to start laying that groundwork asap.

Being involved in wider activism is also a grounding and fulfilling. You don’t need to join a revolutionary socialist party like PSL (but you can if you want to go hard), even joining a park cleanup day or something like that is a good place to be.
