Question: can you just use the image of a US president to sell things? What if you’re based in China? Asking for a friend.

Certainly would make hijacking other apps more easy if you could access the API.

Yeah, translating “size of their contribution” to a dollar amount is going to be inherently political. If they’re leaving it open ended to let projects figure it out then that could go poorly…

It is like when racists say they’re race realists; it’s because the term “Soviet communism” isn’t that popular.

I don’t see where Engels says Administration is “central planning”. It certainly seemed to have been an open question for Marx when he talks romantically of the Paris Communes.

You have a sales pitch that works for the poorest countries, what do you have for the wealthiest?

Frankly I find this view disregards the differing material conditions that are present. Social Democrats are left of what the Americas have now, just like Capitalism was to the left of having a Monarchy. Your take is a-historical, anti-materialist, and thus anti-marxist.

The funny thing is I thought you were talking about all the genocides, including those led by Russia, but then I saw your handle and realized you mean only those done by NATO and their allies.

Reading their solutions is interesting; wanted to call out the following because it plays nice if you don’t agree with their whole prescription:

Don’t dilute the Open Source brand. Post-Open will never call itself Open Source, because it has different rules. The Post Open license actually enforces that.

But to think that our government, should it become communist liberal, should be allowed to kill people in order to maintain a socialist or communist liberal or capitalist society

Seems to me the real objection should not be the ideology but the existence of any system that must murder the people it governs in order to continue to govern.

everything we say is the purest truth possible!

People obsessed with purity will think like that.

Yeah, very ironic that deleting misinformation is equated to deleting accurate information.

We don’t see black empowerment in China or a pride parade in Iran.

Sir, this is a Wendy’s.

DEI requirements is not nepotism, but let’s take on the core issue I think you brought up: meritocracy. If you show me two people with the same level of skill and experience, I would say the one that came from the most disadvantaged environment is more qualified because they were able to get to the same level with less support.

But you brought in numbers, let me do the same. L Consider that the minority group you mentioned actually has greater barriers to participate, so those 10 people might actually perform better than 80% of the 1000 of the majority group. Assuming both groups have the same distribution of merit is a fallacy.
