Right now, in this particular moment?
Every republican (and those who would vote republican if they were in the US) is round up and shot dead.
Pretty much any system the survivors come up with will be better.

I understood that reference.
moving mouse targets. Like let’s say you have two pinned items on the start menu, Firefox and steam. You click Firefox and it starts to open. You go to click steam, but Firefox finishes opening and the icon gets bigger. Steam’s icon then moves to the right, so you click where it was but instead just hit Firefox again. It’s stupid.
Note how Firefox has solved this with tabs. Open a bunch of browser tabs. Enough so they shrink a little. Then rapidly close some, starting from the left. Notice how they don’t change size until you’re done closing tabs.
Mouse tunnels. Like you click the “File” menu, and then mouse over “New” and a long sub menu opens. Longer than the original File menu. If you mouse directly from the top of File to the bottom of New, your cursor will briefly be outside either menu. This often will cause the entire menu to close. Mouse tunnel. Have to keep the cursor in the tunnel. Annoying.
Had an old job that insisted this was fine and refused to let me or anyone change the interface to fix it (on a website)
Focus stealing. Like you’re typing, and some other application pops up and takes focus. The absolute worst is when it pops up and puts focus on a dialogue box, and you just happened to hit “enter”. Instead of adding a new line to your document, you just accepted something. Awful.
I am reminded again of how we need to organized. A few people here or there defaulting on loans or refusing to pay won’t make a difference. A lot of people not paying, but not talking to each other, is kind of a wild card. But if you and fifty thousand of your closest friends went to DC together to tell your reps this is unacceptable, and if they want to sleep at night it will change, maybe we’d see change.
But organizing is really hard and I don’t know how to go about it effectively.
That’s not much leverage when there are many, many, people who need work to to live. Against a lone laborer, management holds almost all the cards. There’s always someone more desperate.
I think you should be allowed to shoot coal rollers dead. it’s self defense
poe’s law is real. Can’t tell if unmarked joke, or just doesn’t know anything about the history of labor or what.
We should get rid of the Republicans. Traitors and fools, all of them.
It’s a relevant question to ask if we want to continue with the system of paying for higher education. Which maybe we don’t. You don’t pay for high school.
I get that by calling attention to it, Trump increases the odds of an attack though.
Yeah that’s really the whole of it. They’re not trying to get smart professional people to shoot their enemies. They want to get impulsive people. That person isn’t likely to go look up these things but if they get the idea put in front of them they might act
Maybe, maybe. But the way stochastic terrorism works is you just roll the dice against long odds over and over and eventually someone does what you’re suggesting.
Posting about it on social media seems to be thinly veiled stochastic terrorism
interesting, but the problem remains: how do you create that unified community? Left-wing people seem especially prone to infighting, at least compared to the right wing where big business and alleged christians are happy to get in bed together.
Also i think it’s easier when you have the backing of the wealthy. i think the “tea party” had rich backers, for example, while ‘occupy wall street’ never had the same financial support.
Organizing is hard and I don’t know how to do it, either. It doesn’t help that a lot of media is owned by conservatives, and the police/gov’t historically hasn’t hesitated to murder organizers (see: fred hampon https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Fred_Hampton )
I posted in another thread about this somewhere, but the original’s D&D 3.x ruleset was bizarre and, frankly, awful. I don’t want to play that again.
A larian-style turn based RPG could be interesting, if the system was solid. But I feel like there’s still this lingering idea that players don’t want complexity, despite the continuous success of Larian. But maybe disney is looking to aim higher? Meh.
This sounds like sort of monkey’s paw shit.
“I wish we’d tax the rich.”
“Granted. And the money will be used for weapons, not education, healthcare, infrastructure, and all that stuff you were thinking but didn’t specify.”
Also I believe I found the related source: https://ag.ny.gov/press-release/2025/attorney-general-james-secures-1675-million-doordash-cheating-delivery-workers
I didn’t see anything on a quick read about how they came up with these numbers, or if there are any more serious penalties. Seems like a pretty light penalty.
I was going to say the same. But I think there’s a big difference between a band (art) and like the startup tshirts I’ve accumulated as “free swag” over the years (not art).
A band is cool and human expression. Some website that sells ads in emails is capitalist nonsense.
“They hate every part of capitalism without hating capitalism” comes to mind a lot
