3·17 days agoBecause they just don’t write emails like this, it’s way more likely that some scammer fooled your friend.

You think it’s literally impossible that your friend would be fooled into thinking the email was from Microsoft when it wasn’t?

World News@lemmy.ml•The Liberal Abandonment Of Greta Thunberg
6·1 month agoPrivate property in this context means things which generate/are used to generate capital, not just any kind of object which people might have and use. The important distinction is that capital is social, it is a means of coercing others to do work for you. That’s true for a factory, where people work for the owner, or for a rented property where the tenant must work to pay the owner. It’s true in a way even for wages - when you spend money you are buying the products of people’s labour (which under capitalism was not produced in a just way). It’s not the case for your toothbrush.
The distinction that liberalism made was that everyone should in theory be allowed to own private property rather than royals appointed by divine right and hereditary nobility they delegated some power to. Not that in the 1700s we were suddenly allowed to have our own clothes for the first time in history.

4·1 month agoI’m surprised that there doesn’t seem to be any after what they did to her and others on the boats.
This stuff takes longer than a news cycle, that was two days ago.
But on the other hand, the world has stood by for more than half a century of torture of Gazans, so it shouldn’t be surprising.
Agreed.

3·1 month agoIt’s incredibly hard to prove things like this so if you don’t believe it you don’t, but I don’t think the effects are just meant to be directly bringing food to Gaza. If that were the only way to measure it you’d be right. But the only thing which could possibly stop Israel is strong political pressure from the West and we are getting closer to that, the world is angry about it in a way they weren’t before. Even Germany, the most hard-line Israel supporter is changing its stance. These massive protests in Italy wouldn’t have been like this otherwise. Yeah maybe I’m wrong because these things are nebulous and slow but that’s how activism is and I think those things are real changes.

34·1 month agoFor leftists that’s exactly who we’re talking about when we say liberals. The right to private property and equality and the consent of the governed are logically incompatible. Right liberals (e.g. US Republican party) emphasise the former, and moderate liberals (e.g. US Democratic party) pay lip service to the latter while only actually protecting the former. It’s really only about property in the end.

Ah, you might be thinking of alcohol. Nicotine withdrawal just makes a very strong craving but there is no physical danger.
