significant counterparty risk

  • That's the neat part, it's a scam

  • Yup. That was 5 years ago and his fortune has like tripled since then. Well, his latest pay package is worth more than triple of what he was worth 5 years ago ($1 tn vs $300 bn).

    We should totally trust him this time though!

  • No, they are not. Some people might not care about or have any relationship to Palestine but still be against genocide on principle. It's also possible to hate Palestine or Palestinians specifically and still be against genocide. Equating pro-Palestine (or even pro-Hamas / supporting terrorism) with objecting to Israel's actions in Palestine is racist (Zionist) framing of the issue. I can't remember any other time it was framed like this- during America's invasion of Iraq in the 2000s we protestors were called "anti-war protestors" and not "pro-Iraq protestors".

  • ❌ pro-Palestine

    ❌ anti-semitic

    ✅ against genocide

    FTFY Larry

  • Yea, capitalism tends to do that :/

  • Wait is the US more right-wing than China? Isn't China supposed to be an authoritarian hell hole committing genocide and the USA a bastion of freedom, merely helping with a genocide?

  • “bulldog” type of debater

    lol I had never thought of it like that but 100% agree

  • So funny to see White America discovering America is fascist.

    welcomed an open Nazi into his political coalition. You might think I am exaggerating. I assure you I am not.

    So many Americans have exactly zero historical awareness about where many Nazis went after the Third Reich was dissolved. There was Operation Paperclip, but they also went to a country that recently got a $40 bn gift from the Orange Führer.

    blah blah doomed to repeat it

  • More context

    In January 2025, the PSF submitted a proposal to the US government National Science Foundation under the Safety, Security, and Privacy of Open Source Ecosystems program to address structural vulnerabilities in Python and PyPI. It was the PSF’s first time applying for government funding, and navigating the intensive process was a steep learning curve for our small team to climb. Seth Larson, PSF Security Developer in Residence, serving as Principal Investigator (PI) with Loren Crary, PSF Deputy Executive Director, as co-PI, led the multi-round proposal writing process as well as the months-long vetting process. We invested our time and effort because we felt the PSF’s work is a strong fit for the program and that the benefit to the community if our proposal were accepted was considerable.

  • Imagine if Facebook existed during the Red Scare.

    "You liked a meme 8 years ago that someone posted in a group. There was a Communist in that group, so off to the gulag with you!"

    dusts off hands "We are much better than those authoritarian Communists."

  • But this article isn’t about the rank-and-file Republican citizens. It’s about the grifters in elected office.

    Haha yes, it just got me thinking, that's all. Excellent points, thank you.

  • Thanks for the link. That's an interesting way of measuring it.

    About two-thirds of registered voters identify as a partisan, and they are roughly evenly split between those who say they are Republicans (32% of voters) and those who say they are Democrats (33%). Roughly a third instead say they are independents or something else (35%), with most of these voters leaning toward one of the parties.

    Of course we can't know about adults who are not registered voters, but I would suspect they lean Democrat. I don't really buy the 50/50 split though because that would be a blowout for Republicans in terms of electoral votes due to FPTP voting. There are also other forms of corruption like gerrymandering that allow Republicans to win elections with a minority of votes.

  • Are there many Republicans in the USA? I thought they won elections because they won the areas where votes are more valuable i.e. those places with very low population density. Same with American governance in general, like how California (pop. 39 MM & 732,189 people per electoral vote) has the same amount of Senators in Congress as Wyoming (pop. 587,000 & 192,284 people per electoral vote).

    Would you say 1 out of 4 American adults are Republicans? 1 out of 3?

  • You and me are allies.

    Hell yea we are. Let's be real though, if we're in jail we're not doing shit. We have to stay out of jail to be effective.

  • But if you live in a city of 300,000 people and 99% don't know about self-hosting you still have 3,000 people who do. Unite!

  • XD omg how embarrassing... Kanye and Sankara sound the same lmao

  • “The slave who cannot organize his own revolt deserves no pity for his fate. He alone is responsible for his misfortune if he believes his master’s false promise of freedom. Freedom can be won only through struggle.”

    • Thomas Sankara
  • This will just become an excuse to jail you, then. "Unlicensed radio broadcast" or whatever is the equivalent. With those kinds of brutish, authoritarian regimes, anyone of intelligence is a threat that needs to be disappeared, and that includes you poindexter with
