Libgen isn’t dead? A couple mirrors show 502 errors, but others don’t and can be accessed normally

I hope this does happen, but the article only cites “sources” so I won’t hold my breath

The only podcast I have listened to this year is maybe 3 episodes of trueanon.

Until every member of the US and Israeli cabinets are swinging from a fucking tree

Womp womp

I am inside a refrigerator. Not so great

Interesting article, though I don’t like the propagandistic language, such as the term "terrorist organization’. Not a single t of those organizations can hold a candle to the USA military in terms of violence against civilians.

Zucchini is also good grilled. Good stuff

I just looked this one up. I have never had this vegetable before

Seems weird to me to hate cabbage, but I suppose there is a certain association with certain very bland cooking? Idk.

I had never really used cabbage to wrap things. Thanks for the tip and idea

“the free world”

If it’s not from the racism region of France than it’s just sparkling bigotry

I was mostly referring to laws setting different requirements for men and women’s clothing in public. However I grew up in a place where it was not unheard of to walk down the street completely naked. It was just something some people did. So I will say that there is a big difference between being naked and deliberately trying to flash your genitals.

In the west there are laws about public indecency which legislate what people may wear outside and these rules demand women wear shirts but do not demand the same of men.

Such laws are categorically reactionary and misogynistic, and we should obviously oppose them

Except that you can’t separate girls with abayas from locals/local culture. They are also French, of a nation with many ethnicities living in it. To say that people of certain ethnic minorities are not “locals” is profoundly xenophobic.

That’s awful, and I’m glad that it is being shut down

Yeah, that’s definitely a usage of the word socialism I have heard, but it is not generally a definition most socialists or socialist parties would use and it has some issues in my opinion.

This is such a broad definition of socialism as to make it almost meaningless, as this definition fits every nation on earth today and most through history. ancient Rome used public money to fund public roads, subsidized grain for the poor, public entertainment and land grants for veterans, public aqueducts, and other public programs, yet this was 2000 years before the concept of socialism was really invented and I don’t think anyone is holding up ancient Rome as an example of a socialist society.

I would define socialism by two characteristics. One is control over the political economy by the proletariat (workers), as opposed to the bourgeoisie (capitalists/financiers/business owners). In a bourgeois run capitalist state, there is still publicly funded services, but they generally set up to benefit privately run industry (public highways, government subsidized research, police) or they are concessions won by the proletariat through class struggle (universal healthcare, social welfare programs).

The second characteristic is economic organization around common need, rather than around the pursuit of profits. This would require taking the means off production (factories, businesses, utilities, etc) out of the hands of the bourgeoisie.
