YSK: A real American Civil war will NOT be like Battlefield or COD.
If you’re really gung-ho about it, go and ask a Veteran of Iraq or Afghanistan about it and see what they think. If anyone will know about it they will.
My uncle that served in Iraq still wakes up screaming in the night. He's a shell of the man he used to be. Another vet my age I knew was absolutely erratic after serving. He couldn't hold a job and ended up homeless and assaulted someone for their spot under a bridge.
My whole family bears the scars of the PTSD from what my grandfather saw from WWII. He also woke up screaming for years afterward.

So it's treason, then?
This is an ongoing operation by the CIA to Balkanize Canada. Canadians need to wake the fuck up.

TikTok users in the US can’t write ‘Epstein’ or see anti-Trump videos
Worth noting is that among the investors loyal to Trump is Larry Ellison, renowned massive turd of a human being. Just totally coincidentally, his festering dingleberry of a son David Ellison is the person that installed the pro-genocide propagandist Bari Weiss as editor-in-chief at CBS.

TIL that due to casino profit distributions, every Seminole Native American is a multi-millionaire by the time they turn 18
Reply in thread
I don't think it's capitalist, because the means of production were purchased by the tribe as a whole and are the property of the tribe. Definitely socialism.

Linux customization is GREAT; Even if it can lead to bad decisions
I fully support this. You do you. It's your computer; you can do what you want with it. Whether you're using it for work or play, if it's the way you like it, then it's not wrong.

Landlords in B.C. warning renters against installing AC units despite rising heat
Landlords that deny installing AC units are going to kill people over aesthetics. Period. There is no future where they aren't necessary. The next killer heat dome could be next year. 619 dead in 2021 was just the beginning, a warning of what is to come.

Could this Lemmy be shut down by bill C18?
Nah, if you look at the text of the bill, it's written to only affect big players: https://www.parl.ca/DocumentViewer/en/44-1/bill/C-18/royal-assent
This is the relevant text in my mind:
6 This Act applies in respect of a digital news intermediary if, having regard to the following factors, there is a significant bargaining power imbalance between its operator and news businesses:
(a) the size of the intermediary or the operator;
(b) whether the market for the intermediary gives the operator a strategic advantage over news businesses; and
(c ) whether the intermediary occupies a prominent market position.

No. Greek Semicolons hold no power here.
I love that this implies Visual Studio is not worth its salt, because it most certainly isn't.

Canada has no intent of pursuing free trade deal with China, says PM after Trump threat
Reply in thread
Canadians should not want free trade with China. It's reasonable to protect domestic industries. China has massively invested in their productive capacity; free trade would destroy any domestic Canadian businesses that compete with their Chinese counterparts. Canada should be purchasing cheap factory equipment from China and reshoring lost industries via heavy investment or creating state-owned businesses. But, Canada should also stop cutting funding for its public health system, enact laws to prevent capital flight, and tax big businesses and the ultra-wealthy heavily, and we know that a fucking banker would never do that.

When someone tries to tell me ENT sucked and Bakula killed the franchise:
ENT has hands down the best intro song of any series.
Can you even remember the words to any of the other intro songs? I didn't think so.
