Voter shaming accomplishes nothing, especially when the system itself is rigged.
Voter shaming is the game that the DNC plays, and we’ve seen how that plays out.
What will work is actually inspiring voters, which the DNC hasn’t done since FDR.
John Podesta’s email leaks lays it out in detail for one of the elections (2016). Hillary did the best she could to spin the leaks trying to discredit the source (blaming Russia and WikiLeaks) rather than talking about the actual content of the leaks.
In 2020, the DNC heavilly convinced all the establishment candidates other than Biden to drop out right before Super Tuesday in a cordinated effort while making sure Elizibeth Warren stayed in the race to ensure that Bernie had as small of a chance as possible of winning, since he was winning big-time until then, not to mention the news-media falsely calling one of the elections for Mayor Pete when Bernie won that race.
In 2024, the DNC did all they could to hide the fact that there was even a primary at all, working with the news-media to ensure that they didn’t even mention the competing candidates.
Anybody with eyes can see that the DNC primaries are rigged.
So give me a solution. How can America organize en masse?
For that, we need mass organization, which is extremely difficult both logisticly (due to the size of the US and how spread out the polulation is) and politicly (decades of neoliberal and red scare propoganda).
With our luck, it’ll happen after Trump is reelected
They can’t do that since it might actually accomplish something.
We’re not French, unfortunately.
This week on “every accusation is a confession”…
He’s FBI agent Dale Cooper from real life.
So in addition to this, there will be criminal charges, right?
Right?
Lovecraft wrote more about how finding out about new, unknowable information and understanding (or attempting to understand) can drive someone insane. So similar, but without the physical aspect (although tbf he also used physical transformation as an idea too, like people turning into fish monsters).
Kind of. The NES also used cell-based graphics and reusable tilemaps, which I think the 8 bit guy made a video about.
The NES has a picture processor (PPU) that has special things made for 2D, cell (tile)-based graphics with hardware sprites. Being able to reuse tiles and express each tile with a few bytes really helps keep things small, as storage was very expensive back then. Also, without bank switching (which SMB1 did not have), the 6502 could only address up to 64kb of memory (including ROM and RAM).
The music was also kept small, as it was generated in real time by the audio processor that was embedded in the CPU.
I’m sure there’s a disassembly out there along with some YouTube videos if you want to understand a bit more. IMO programming for these old systems is more fun compared to modern systems, which in comparison, have no limitations. It is a boon to creativity.
They already have a free version of Windows. Just don’t activate it.
Microsoft would prefer that you pirate Windows rather than use Linux, as it further entrenches their dominance in the market.
They mainly make their money off of business licenses anyway, similar to Adobe and Autodesk.
There’s a reason massgravel’s scripts are hosted on Microsoft’s GitHub platform and hasn’t been taken down.
Did someone say debtor’s prison?
Marxism is the one thing that has given me hope for the future when everything now constantly looks so bleak.
Richard Wolff is who got me into Marxism personally.
If only he had the balls to do that.
