Not true. It might be that people with illnesses that cause a higher risk of heart attacks can also make it more difficult for them to go out and meet people due to low mobility or chronic pain or fatigue.

Dehumanising really isn’t effective against nazis, because it implies that actual humans aren’t capable of atrocious behaviour while we’ve clearly seen that they are. It’s always better to call nazis/fascists/imperialists/colonialists/racists/homophobes/etc by their name.

The word world is literally in the name… When I joined lemmy I started there because I assumed it would be a general instance. It’s like worldnews where 90% of posts are US politics. Also, it’s not an obsession, most times it comes up it’s just a joke (like this meme).

More working class children means that there will be more people to exploit in the future. The size of the working class population is extremely important for the generation of wealth because they’re basically the only ones doing productive labour.

With that attitude towards cyclists you probably shouldn’t drive because you’d be making the road unsafe for a mode of transportation that is healthier and more space and energy efficient than a car.

‘A system that counteracts those selfish tendencies’ you mean a system in which:

  • housing is not controlled by companies with no moral incentive to keep them liveable and affordable?
  • people don’t learn from a young age that their value is directly connected to their willingness to fuck people over for money?
  • there is no monetary incentive to create artificial deficits in essential goods like housing and food?
  • the whole economy is not based on ‘cheap labour’ and the illegal extraction of minerals from other countries?

This is probably not the answer you’re looking for but I’d thought I’d mention it anyways. Have you considered women’s boxershorts? Those are more comfortable when working out and the lines they leave are less pronounced and at a more flattering location.

Ah that’s unfortunate. The side effects are pretty bad especially with a high dose of

If you read the article it describes how this phenomenon is really bad for the Pakistani government who are in debt and the working class who can’t invest in solar panels and thus end up having to pay way more for their already expensive energy to compensate for companies who are no longer using it.

Kinda weird to blame China for offering a loan Pakistan asked for. This whole situation seems to be more of a result of lack of market regulation. Western companies are taking advantage of this lack of regulation and the government’s response is to… let the working class pay even more for its already overpriced energy.

They should force those companies to use the energy they probably begged the government to provide for them or they’d leave the country, and in the meantime gradually transition to the cheaper solar energy.

Did you take slow release aderall? My aderall is worn off before I go to sleep and I actually sleep better since I take aderall because I spend more energy during the day.
