Baby leftist. Slowly learning since it finally hit home that all the “nice things” said by liberal politicians were hollow and really only further the problems I saw around me. The more I read the more I realize there is much much work to be done.

Charlottesville, is that you?

Also… +10 for vim

Where I completely disagree with disallowing people in Cuba from using a distro… I’d wager at least some of it has to do with redhat being a business that makes money and that is at odds with the horseshit blockade and sanctions. And by that logic I wouldn’t be surprised to see something similar from canonical, especially support related as that’s something you can purchase if I’m remembering correctly.

That’s my thoughts without knowing the specifics so I’m quite literally talking out of my ass and spitballing.

In the belly of the beast it’s even easier once one actually looks into things and stops gulping down the Patriotism™ propaganda

I shave my head because I’m going bald and I look like bozo the clown if I let the back and sides grow.

Also I live in the US south, and when I speak it sounds like cornbread.

SO MANY TIMES people think I’m a person they can be racist with or like you said, regurgitate what they’ve seen on the news. When I’m working, as a general contractor, it’s even worse with the dirty stained khaki Dickies work pants and bright neon yellow or orange shirts.

If I grew my hair for long enough I could do the hippie side and back pony tail… but I really enjoy not having to do anything with my hair. I had long hair all through highschool and for several years afterward. I miss how it looked, but again I really really enjoy not having to worry about it.

Back in highschool and immediately after, I was on 4chan. Def Nazis everywhere then too… But I didn’t turn out like that, I also don’t think I ever looked at /pol/ 🤷 I was only there for jokes and shock content, being shortly after oggrish and whatnot.

But that was all when I was so angsty and misanthropic, and for some reason felt like I hated myself. I got older, and eventually discovered I didn’t hate myself that much… And I didn’t know how I could care about myself without truly internalizing the horrors of the world that I was aware of and caring about the rest of the world, the vast majority of the horrors being from class struggles or collateral damage of them.

So yeah, my self growth had a lot to do with my radicalization. As did my heart.

In all fairness I don’t doubt that we have total Nazis in the military. But I also believe there’s intentional disregard for any other reason to not want to go Bring Democracy™️

So any resistance to fight on the side of apartheid is straight antisemitism? Not wanting to fight against a Semite people? Got it 🙄
