The thing is - no matter how rich he'll ever be or how much power he'll get. He is, and forever will be, one of the biggest fucking losers this world has ever seen.

This gives me enough comfort to sleep at night.

True, but at this point, I'm not sure if we even deserve the earth we are on.

Neither, but I'm fed up with Reddit regardless. Open Source and self hosted is something I prefer.

And if everybody praises the alternatives, but nobody is using it, we'll never get shit done.

Not saying someone should but..... I would not be sad.

Man I can't wait for the European alternative.

If I wasn't forced to use this shit, I would burn that stupid plastic card in a heart beat.

Oh my, I'm new to Linux and I use CachyOS for my gaming rig at home. Most of the time I have no idea what I'm doing, but shit runs well and I'm happy about it. But how the hell do I check my noob ass if it's compromised?!

Say about Mamdani what you will. But he gets shit done. That's not his first win and more will follow I bet.

Imagine all politicians would only be half like that....

It was a joke and you make a lot of assumptions on someone you dont know.

I don't mind paper straws. I don't mind taking the train or public transport instead of a car or plane. I don't mind paying more for green energy. But I complain about the ultra rich not carrying their fair share. They do not care at all, even though their footprint is bigger than mine and yours combined will ever be, and that is very frustrating to say the least.

It was obviously a cynical joke.

Also, it's not about the straws per se - it's about that us everyday normies are being asked to change our ways to combat climate change and I'm totally in favor of that. We have to be more aware of our ways and where we can switch our behaviours to combat climate change.

But all it needs is an ultra rich dude flying around in his private jet or spend weeks on his yacht driving around and all our efforts become meaningless.

Change the little guy, for sure - but also grab the rich fucks by their balls as well. And so far nothing like that is happening.

Record breaking heat waves, record breaking storms in strength, flash floods, food shortages - all the good stuff.

Thank god we switched to paper straws and let the ultra rich use their private jets 5 times a day, or we would be really fucked.

Me personally, I always preferred 'Eat the rich!'
