Democrats are the furthest thing from “moderate”, they are on the extreme center. The idea that liberal centrism can’t be extremist is damaging. Supporting endless proxy warfare in Ukraine, genocide in Gaza and austerity at home are all irrational, extremist positions that the Democrats (and most liberal parties in other countries) believe in.
There’s still a few weeks until 25.10 releases. If its still issues by release time I’m sure that they’ll either delay the 25.10 release (as they have done in the past) or pause the coreutils-rs rollout and stick to GNU Coreutils for this release.
What does the text on that beautiful Strawberry Elephant creature say? Looks like it’s in Farsi
+972 Magazine (an Israeli anti-genocide publication) and Drop Site News actually were the first ones to break the story.
I live in a wildly overpriced studio apartment. I would jump at the chance to move into a concrete block apartment with no AC and limited hot water if it took $500 off my monthly rent.
That’s good to know! So it’s there, but very spotty and inadequate in areas. Still better than nothing like in the US.
I live in Canada where we have the “best” universal healthcare system in the world by some estimates (single payer, free universal healthcare as a right for all citizens), but we only got dental and pharmacy care added to our program last year. Since the 1960s until 2024 our universal healthcare system was the same “basics only” coverage for hospital and physician visits, and everything else was tied to private insurance. Vision care still isn’t covered.
I mean I agree that Vancouver is maybe one of the most beautiful cities in the world, but it’s also one of the most expensive!
I’ll take anything that’s a move in the right direction at this point. Gaza is the modern-day Holocaust and anything that moves the needle to make the killing stop is a good thing.
Very interesting, what period of time was this? Because universal healthcare has rapidly developed in just the last 5-10 years. According to the WHO 95% of China now has basic health coverage, free of charge.
(And yes there are going to be gaps in the system, there will be gaps in any rapidly-developing universal program)
What’s up with the obsession with “.ml”? I’ve literally never heard of or used this site except from annoying people who are get triggered and accuse people for saying facts they don’t like.
Here’s the WHO (not exactly a communist organization) on Chinese universal healthcare:
https://www.who.int/china/health-topics/universal-health-coverage
Universal health coverage (UHC) is a vision where all people and communities have access to quality health services where and when they need them, without suffering financial hardship. It includes the full spectrum of services needed throughout life—from health promotion to prevention, treatment, rehabilitation, and palliative care—and is best based on a strong primary health care system.
The concept of UHC is much in line with the goal of China’s Health Reform since 2009, which aims to provide establish a universal basic health care system providing safe, effective, convenient and affordable health services to all by 2020.
You don’t have to like China, but underestimate your enemy at your own peril.
We need this in North America if we ever want to solve the housing crisis tbh. I’m talking Soviet-style, grey concrete commieblocks. Yes the buildings are ugly, probably lack amenities, cheaply constructed and not well maintained, but we desperately need cheap, dense housing if we’re going to bring down the costs. Building more luxury Manhattan condos and suburban single family abominations does nothing to bring down housing prices.
China has universal healthcare and universal public housing, lol. China spends less per capita on social welfare, but that’s because things are cheaper and more efficient in China (a shot of insulin doesn’t cost $1000 for example).
He was pro-genocide when Biden was doing it, then quietly pivoted to being anti-genocide when the genocide fell into Trump’s hands. He’s an unprincipled piece of shit who only cares about making Team Blue look good.
It gets pushed often by reactionaries as an “anti-woke” browser LOL its a complete piece of shit. It’s got crypto, tracking, NFTs, AI and ads baked in. Literally everything I hate about the tech industry rolled up into one package. I’d rather use Chrome, even.
Just use Firefox for gods sakes, Brave is a complete joke of a browser especially when it comes to privacy.
GrapheneOS is probably not long for this world with how much Google has been fucking with AOSP’s source code releases. We need full-fat mainline Linux on our phones, with no Android code included.
US Holocaust museum removes anti-genocide post amid Gaza atrocities
US Holocaust Memorial Museum Board Member Calls Gazans “Fundamentally Evil”
US Holocaust Museum accuses Mamdani of ‘exploiting’ Warsaw Ghetto Uprising
Here’s a post from their own blog, saying that it’s antisemetic to not be a Zionist (“All sectors of society must condemn antisemitism, including anti-Zionism.”)
So yeah, fuck 'em.
Ironically the US Holocaust Museum is basically a part of Israel’s PR wing and has done extensive work in whitewashing Israel’s modern-day Holocaust in Palestine, even saying that “Never again” only means “never again for Jews” and genocides of other people is OK. It should be shut down for that reason, not Trump’s.
Smuggling moon rocks back to Earth to be sold on the black market is also pretty lucrative iirc.
Supporting peace isn’t “Russian propaganda”, 78% of Ukranians want a negotiated end to the war. If you want to keep fighting Russia then send your own damn troops and quit forcing Ukranians to die over an inter-imperial pissing match that’s killed almost their entire fighting age male population.
