Ah yes. I knew I wasn’t going to make many friends with that comment but I think it’s an honest appraisal of what both sides think of each other. 😆

Kdr?

Lemmy.world is a den full of libs who will wholeheartedly approve of any meager band-aid solutions over the festering wounds of our western economic systems, even if it continues to make it worse, provided it’s not quite as terrible as whatever the fascists over the other side of the aisle propose.

Lemmy.ml is a den full of marxist-leninist tankies who will wholeheartedly support any authoritarian and imperialist regime provided it’s an enemy of most imperialist state of them all : the USA.

Do people struggle that much more to divide dollars compared to feet?

I mean I totally get that base 12 is pretty cool for calculator-less maths (though not as cool for base 60) but ultimately, we still have a base 10 numbering system.

So yea, base 10 units for base 10 numbers. Using the same all the way down makes it easier to learn how to handle the more complicated divisions in all cases, you don’t have to switch logic if you see what I mean.

Of course, to each their own. The best case for metric remains that it’s the system everyone else has agreed on.

Oh yea, Palantir. Reminds me that Thiel will be doing a conference in Paris soon 🤮.

Yes absolutely everything ! /s

If we’re talking about next-door neighbors yes, sure.

I reckon it means people living in the same neighborhood as you, which in big cities can be quite large.

In France we have people on far-right billionaire-funded yet widely popular TV channel openly advocating for the adoption of ICE tactics.

We’ve also already got special administrative prisons with inhumane conditions for undocumented migrants for a while. Likewise, on paper, the far-right has never participated in any government since 1945.

Let’s not forget that the EU has delegated arbitrary arrest and violent policing of migrants to other states for quite a while now.

Dark times ahead, we need to fight now, but, indeed, also prepare for a worsening of the situation.
