The vast majority of Haiti practices some elements of vodou, but official stats list Christianity as the main religion.

It is a country with plenty reason to hate the French. https://en.m.wikipedia.org/...

Instead of dismantling the machine that runs on human blood we will limit the amount of blood to the smallest quantity that can allow the machine to run at maximum capacity.

I don't know why you expected this community to endorse fascist slogans. Reconsider your revisionist stance.

You do a structured sale overtime and those do take place even in the billions of dollars without destroying the value of the stock. Also, they can borrow against the value of the stock, usually for extremely low interest rates, to quickly infuse cash. This argument is nonsense. The best recent example is elon buying Twitter. Yes it hurt tesla stock in the short term but it is almost back to the presale value with little impact on his overall networth. The wealth in stocks is very real.

Edit: The elon case isn't even a good example because he was forced to sell the stock much faster than normal.

Public Housing and Shouldn't be removed aren't mutually exclusive. The whole question talks about homeless people as if they are refuse to be dealt with. At least reactionaries recognize libs are full of shit.

Everyone eats bugs already though. The acceptable limit of bugs in food is greater than zero.

It is just a right wing meme about the future hell scape created by their scapegoat and totally not by capitalism.

I'm not going to suggest dolphins because they have already been used, but I like animal imagery so I want to recommend a couple to consider.

  • Ants and Bees: strong association with working and communal effort
  • Crows: intelligent communal animals who are also a bit vengeful and represent transition
  • Flamingos: LGBTQ+ association and groups that works together while allowing individuality
  • Elephants: Big, stronk, and have deep community ties enough to morn each other

As a programmer, I never understood why other programmers were so against organizing. In many cases, they hold the entire company by the balls and could easily shut the whole thing down. Large software projects are complex in completely idiosyncratic ways which greatly reduces the ability to replace staff quickly. Hopefully this dogshit profession is automated away but that probably won't happen any time soon.

I don't think utilitarianism is a useful tool for analyzing structural problems. Which is what I was trying to condense into a funny quip. If you look at Peter Singer, the most prominent modern day utilitarian, you still see that he has terrible takes on pretty much anything geopolitical and isn't an anti-capitalist. I actually don't have a problem with consequentialism generally, but the materialist analysis is just more effective. I have limited philosophical knowledge so I probably can't answer your actual question.

The video is legitimate you need a couple power tools, some soldering, and a day or two worth of labor. Most audio equipment is expensive because it is either niche, used commercially (b2b goods are always overpriced), or sold to audiophiles who think money is quality. Audio tech is really mature and lasts for a long time so there's no money to be made in anything but predatory behavior.

We need to dismantle elitist institutions and stop treating education as something to be rationed and hoarded. The entire debate with affirmative action is about rationing bourgeois education due to artificially created scarcity.

Having all the brain power of society so incredibly concentrated instead of dispersed at institutions across the country has to be less efficient than a more egalitarian system (although ill recant if there's data to the contrary).

The way to stop homelessness is to fix it before it starts. Which is by far the thing that needs to be in focus. If you stop creating homeless people you will eventually not have to deal with communities of them and instead deal with single people in crisis who can be dealt with in a humane manner by the community. If you have ever experienced having all your rights taken away from you, as I have, you know the extreme injustice and colonial mindset that all of these programs have at their core. We are just civilizing savages vagrants for their benefit after-all isn't it good?

No matter how many draws you put in place you will have people who will not voluntarily comply with any measure put in place due to their inability to or deep distrust rightfully learned from their lived experiences. These people still deserve agency it is the only thing they have. The homeless are victims of social eugenics who are somehow still able to adapt to their extremely unfortunate circumstances. They are all owed a great debt by society and we should treat them that way by voluntarily letting them reintegrate. Yes, absolutely provide whatever services are needed, but never by force.

How is a historical critique invalid when the systems of today are the exact same ones in most cases? Maybe they just mean any topic that has had enough time pass by to be researched.

Liberals daily wage war against semantics.
