I don't really believe in ethical consumption, but Penzys spices are awesome! They're such troll too, I love it!

wdym? Every single week there's protests. Are you part of an org? If you're part of an org maybe you'll hear about them more?

Linux mint de

You're going to distro hop (we all do) so just start somewhere. It's debian based, so what you learn will be applicable to like 80% of the distros out there.

I like gnome. Plasma is nice too. Lately I've just been using minimal i3 window manager.

Good luck!

Both are imperialists. Both are evil. You don't remember ole two-tap Obama?

I don't think Dems are even capable of doing anything. They serve the same Capitalist interests that the Republicans do, so this isn't surprising. The system is working as intended. People are slowly starting to realize this.

That said, anything is more than nothing, which is what they're currently doing. At minimum they should do what the Republicans do whenever Dems have power: block, harass, impede, shutdown, filibuster... The problem is that there's always a cohort of Dems that vote against party lines (again, working as intended).

 

These are not normal times. The capitalist, oligarchic system has failed to protect our planet or our freedoms. As more and more of our leaders turn collaborator, all of us must come together to fight fascism. Join us as we stand in solidarity with immigrants, for LGBTQ rights, for a free Palestine, and most of all in opposition to the "Elonreich." A better world is possible!✊

The 50501 movement -- a decentralized, nationwide call to action -- has set April 5th as a day of action. Answer the call with us.

The Deprogram podcast, Hakim, and Second Thought YT channels all exist to address this. It's rather obvious to anybody willing to learn
