You’ve really gotta get your numbers right. Due to the structure of American democracy, the President is not the one who gets more than half the votes, nor the one who even gets the most popular votes necessarily. If you think 1 out of 2 American adults is a Trump supporter, you’re walking around thinking you have a fraction of the allies you do, which is a win for the regime.

14·2 days agoDo they know White people are also on food stamps?
In terms of raw numbers there are more White people in poverty in the US, but proportional to population size more Blacks are in poverty, due to structural racism.
Cool do Israel next

But yea, that’s the joke of this post. The very same government is still in place, despite the American governments attempt at regime change.

442·2 days agoIt’s interesting to see in the comments here and elsewhere people that haven’t figured out how capitalist white supremacy patriarchy and a foreign wife are a natural fit. They think it’s a sign of hypocrisy. Sweet, sweet summer children 😇

Ask Lemmy@lemmy.world•Under communism, what incentive is there to pursue highly dangerous or specialized fields?
1·4 days agoThis is a good answer and I would just like to mention the democratic / assembly nature of communism. If you have an assembly where the community has to decide “who will do this tough / dangerous job?” and someone steps up to do it, they will get the respect of the community (and probably some sexual interest from the sex(es) of their choice tbh). The human-nature aspect is important, as we are social animals. We already have this going on already, like why do game crackers and pirate groups do what they do, at significant personal danger? Reputation, among other things. That goes back to the warez scene and even to phreakers and whoever else was hacking before them.
It could also be that a certain individual enjoys the danger or difficulty of the job.

21·4 days agoIn July 2023, PenLink merged with Israeli surveillance contractor Cobwebs Technologies
Tangles is a web platform, originally developed and sold by Israeli firm Cobwebs Technologies, that scrapes data from the open web, deep web, and dark web, as well as allowing for the tracking of mobile devices within a user-designated area, in a process known as “geofencing,” through an optional add-on feature called WebLoc.
Cobwebs and how the spying is going global.
