  • The tech is good. But the pushing of encryption in email services disables the use of other mail clients on free accounts (where the bridge doesn’t work), while the encryption is useless when communicating with any other mail service (with email you mostly communicate with corpos anyway). It just seems like it’s a cash grab, but it might be useful for activist groups.

    I’m still looking for a free, private (at least as much as it can be) and open email service which is way harder than I expected.

    I have a protonmail ACC (not using it as I need a powerful mail client, Infomaniak (very capitalist lately), which I also don’t use much.



  • My grandma lives in a village (well technically we also live there - I won’t get into it (it’s weird), it’s unexpectedly long already) where there isn’t a centralized water supply. So the people living there had to organize themselves (relatively common in Slovenia (but only in places where a clean water source is available)). Most have their own water intake and plumbing but some share it with their neighbors.

    The water there is actually decent (calcium instead of fluoride and tastes great). The water from the public water supply actually tastes like fluoride poisoning (I don’t believe in the theories, but it still tastes like our nearest public pool).

    No matter how much I hate Slovenia, it’s right-wing populism (our prime minister is Stevanović - yes, right wingers vote for someone of Serbian descent, very logical - like the gay republicans) and repression, the springwater availability and quality is great.

    Great, this is a political rant now. Yes, let’s now also complain about SDS, Logar-Democrats and other SDS bootlickers.






  • Wow, you could say he’s a capitalist bootlicker, who never actually criticizes the free products he gets from companies. Or a populist who ignores the actual important information about things he reviews and focuses on the materials and how they make him feel (like almost all reviewers).

    But the “Oh no, he is able to drive and occasionally speeds like everyone else.” isn’t really a problem.

    But he is an idiot, who posted it on the internet. That’s just stupid.

    Most people aren’t really into ideology (or Wikipedia for that matter). They just figure out the system is the problem. The only people being an actual part of the revolution would ve intellectuals, easy to repress. That would make the revolution from an actual revolution to the people enrolling a Nazi into power and doing nothing else.

    Well yes, technically that would just be a repressed revolution. Aparently I just parroted the OP’s point and haven’t added anything that important. Shit.

    But the ruling class doesn’t have to do an organized attempt of repression, they can just be done by people themselves.

    Yes, but if the revolution happens, they will definitely make it fascist. That’s what I was trying to say (but I did it somewhat shitily). We really need to be careful to protect ourselves and others in the event of revolution (both from other dangerous people and from fascist ideology).



  • They do, they just don’t arrest the ones that matter yet.

    Europeans, don’t worry, this is also coming to your neoliberal capitalist country. There are already many people who want their own version of ICE in their country (even while knowing such orgs already exist) - yes, I know them personally. Most people are stupid enough to hate minorities (because oh no, the Wikipedia about them includes words I don’t understand(they are the target audience for the simple Wikipedia)), which just empowers their glorious leaders even more.

    If you aren’t profitable enough a risk of resistance (minorities who can afford education are more often educated than the “Aryan race”), you are getting jailed (and optionally murdered). “But socialism has gulags.” - Yes, you do too and it’s worse.
