"So this appears to be a Sacramento County issue. The holes are there to help verify that a ballot is present and is supposedly to aid the visually impaired. Is the logic that the visually impaired can ‘touch’ the cutout and tell they got it in the envelope? Even if true it’s another example of ridiculous government bloat, overreach, and unnecessary, unrequested, and ineffectual changes...for the greater good."

“[On adherence to the principle of productivity]: By committing us to what is impossible, it makes for madness. The Nobel Prize-winning economist Angus Deaton said something like this when he explained anomalous mortality rates among white people in the Bible Belt by claiming that they’ve ‘lost the narrative of their lives’ – by suggesting that they’ve lost faith in the American Dream. For them, the work ethic is a death sentence because they can’t live by it.”

the usa just gave Argentina $20bn USD largely because their libertarian dictator is about to get crushed by the countries leftist coalition and theres nothing anyone can do about it.

Next party will absolutely nationalize the soybean industry and roll out more social welfare programs.

The #Trump administration is working on a plan to “eliminate” Venezuelan president, Nicolás #Maduro, a White House insider told Politico. “The president is serious. No more mixed messages. No more excuses,” they said.

In recent weeks, Trump has deployed thousands of US troops to the region, and begun blowing up Venezuelan boats in an attempt to provoke #Venezuela into reacting.

Do not expect much resistance among the liberals in the US when he does that.

‘Veba’ ve ‘Kötülüğün Sıradanlığı’ ve biz
Yazar-Filozof Camus’ün “Veba” romanı ve Filozof Arendt’in “Kötülüğün Sıradanlığı” kitabı üzerine çapraz okuma yapmanın tam zamanı. Kötülüğün bir pandemi gibi yaygınlaştığı günümüzde, Camus, duyarsızlığın; Arendt ise sorgulamayan insanların kötülüğü nasıl sıradanlaştırdığını anlatıyor bize.
Ağaçlar, hayvanlar, kadınlar, çocuklar ve hatta bebekler katledilirken kötülüğün bir pandemi gibi etrafımızı sardığı bugünlerde, toplumsal yozlaşma (ya da çürüme ya da kokuşmuşluk) en çok kafa yormamız gereken konulardan biri. Bir veba gibi sanki bulaşıcı bir hastalığa dönüşen kötülük, sıradan insanların sıradan yaşamlarını bile ele geçirmiş durumda.

Kötülük konusu çağlar boyunca psikolojinin, felsefenin, edebiyatın en çok ele aldığı konulardan biri. Gılgamış Destanı’ndan, Eski Ahit’ten, Platon’dan bu yana insanlığın kötülüğe kafa yorduğunu biliyoruz. Ne yazık ki evrimini bir türlü tamamlayamayan insan, bir yandan Mars’ta yaşamın temellerini atarken Dünya gezegeninde işler hiç iyiye gitmiyor. Bazen ne söylesek, ne yazsak anlamsız olacağı hissine kapılıyoruz, böyle dönemlerde okumak insana daha da iyi geliyor.

If any Canadians are here, and if they understand our Canadian reality in all its complexity, please reach out. One reason being is that Druthers.ca is available in English only, and I am looking for a topic that would resonate with French speaking Quebecers.
in reply to Sustain26

I don't claim to understand "all its complexity" but "maudit ostie de tabarnak" about sums up the communist shithole.

Since Quebec in general and Montreal in particular is a Jewish run full blown communist shithole, I don't know if there is much to be said to them in particular.

There may be some appropriate messaging for whatever remains of the nationalist rural Quebec sentiments that haven't been deracinated but I dunno.

“We have the money. Damn near ALL of it.” @laurajedeed.bsky.social saying what many have been thinking — as Trump threatens to pull funding from blue cities, blue cities should be looking at withholding federal taxes in retaliation: www.bannedinyourstate.com/p/the-point-...

“Inside Al-Aqsa Martyrs Hospital, the screams and joy of children raised with the announcement of a ceasefire and the end of the war in Gaza after two years of pain... A moment in which tears of fear were mixed with tears of joy, and everyone is waiting to return to the north of the Strip, to the houses they left and the memories that did not leave them.

I get the impression that most people don't understand how important metadata such as phone numbers is when it comes to privacy.

For example, by requiring phone numbers, Signal, despite its good encryption, inherently builds a social graph. The server operators, or anyone who gets that data, can see a map of who is talking to whom. The content is secure, but the connections are not.

@comradetrace Sealed Sender does not actually address the problem because you can still analyze metadata outside the encrypted message. The server still sees the sender's IP address when the device connects, linking the message to a specific user.

It can also perform traffic analysis; by observing the timing and recipients of messages, it can infer who is talking to whom, even if the sender's identity isn't on the digital envelope.

It's just smoke and mirrors.

A man was arrested for holding a magazine cover showing a man holding a placard supporting a banned organisation.

Kapitalist Modernitenin Mahşerin Üç Atlısının İflası

Ergin Atabey

Kapitalist modernitenin mahşerin üç atlısının (kapitalizm, ulus-devlet, endüstriyalizm) doğa ve toplumu yok etme noktasına doğru götürürken, bir taraftan insanı ve toplumu çıldırtma ve intiharın eşiğinde tutup sömürüyor. Öte yandan insanın yok oluşu anlamına gelen post-insan aşamasını yaşıyor. Erich Fromm, bu gerçekliğe şu çarpıcı tespitte işaret ediyor: “Robot üretme çabası teknik ruhun en büyük başarılarından birisi olarak addediliyor, dahası robotun canlı insandan ayırt edilemeyeceği güvencesi veren insanlar var. Yaşamın dünyası ‘canlı olmayanın’ dünyası haline geldi. İnsanlar ‘insan olmayanlar’ haline geldi. Bir ölüm dünyası.”

Kapitalist modernite, yaşamın ve canlılığın varoluşunu ve varlığını sağlayan ve sapmalara karşı dengeleyen ne varsa yok ediyor. Tarihin gelmiş geçmiş en ölü sevici sistemlerinden biri olan kapitalist modernite üç mahşerin atlısıyla yaşamı cansız nesnelere dönüştürerek her şeye hükmediyor. Bu kapitalist modernitenin yeni çağ geçişi anlamına geliyor. Üç mahşerin atlısıyla geçiş yapılan bu yeni çağda derin bir iklim krizi yaşanmaktadır. Buna bağlı olarak yerüstü ve yeraltı kaynakları tüketiliyor. Biyolojik çeşitlilik yitiriliyor. Artan kirlilik her şeyi yutuyor. İnsanın en önemli ve özgürlüğe açık özelliği olan zekası gereksiz hale getirilirken, yerine nesnelleştirilmiş, hesaplamaya dayalı mekanik yapay zeka ikame ediliyor. Nano-biyo-teknolojinin propagandası eşliğinde “dördüncü sanayi devrimi” övgüleri yapılırken, yaşam birbirine bağlı bilgisayar sistemi haline getiriliyor. Embriyoların manipülasyonuyla yeni türden bir öjenizm (ırkçılık bilimi) insanı, toplumu ve manevi değerleri altüst ediyor. Tüm bu hususlar birinci (doğa), ikinci (insan-toplum) ve üçüncü (ahlaki-politik-ekolojik toplum) doğaların gitgide artık geride kaldığını, bilgisayarlar, robotlar ve makinelerden oluşan post-insan evresine geçiş yapıldığını gösteriyor.

Post-insan, nano-biyolojik teknolojilerin her şeyi belirlediği insan sonrası aşamadır.
