I meant it in the “fool me once” sense. Americans went for a second helping at the trough of fascism.

So were lots of countries. At least they learned from their mistake, unlike the US.

It also helps that unlike the R and the C in BRICS, they aren’t imperialists threatening and/or invading their neighbours. Brazil is a good world citizen.

Vucic is an inveterate Russian ass-kisser and any NATO support is only to placate the populace. They’ve had practically non-stop protests for years now.

You can do that, or you can install Cachy or Bazzite and not have to take any extra steps, not to mention if you need to you have community support from people who are overwhelmingly using it for the same purpose as you rather than greybeards who never leave emacs. I’m not anti-Debian, but for a first-time Linux gamer it really isn’t a great recommendation.

The fact that you think being black is a lifestyle choice does a lot to explain your other comments in this thread.

No, Propaganda is pushing any viewpoint you want to be more adopted.

If you see a black person on TV, do you think that will make you want to become black?

I’m already seeing people I know personally whining that they can’t stop using Facebook because they need it for work reasons. People will rationalize anything if it inconveniences them even mildly.

It’s rumoured that he and Jung were sharing more than their theories on psychoanalysis in their formative years, so maybe that had a lasting effect.

I uses PopOS for a while and liked it a lot, but I’m so used to Arch-based distros that I don’t think I can go back. I may use Cosmic as me DE once it’s out of beta, though.

Sexualizing 17-year olds is ok with them now?

Well, 17 is maybe a bit too old for them, but it’s better than nothing.

I doubt s76 will push an update until Cosmic is out of beta, let alone alpha.

And they always phrase it as something being “shoved down their throat”. Freud would have a field day with it.

Welcome! Based on the GPU I assume you’re into gaming, and Debian is not the optimal distro for that because it’s focused on stability and is not as up-to-date as other distros. Personally I use CachyOS (based on Arch) on my gaming PC and it works very well. EndeavourOS is similar and is also based on Arch — it’s what I use on my laptop. Bazzite (based on Fedora) is another popular gaming distro. If you really prefer Debian you may also want to look at PopOS, which is based on Ubuntu, which is itself based on Debian. You can by all means use Debian if that’s what you really want, but there’s a good chance you’ll run into issues that wouldn’t appear with distros designed for gaming, especially since you have an Nvidia GPU which tend to have driver issues with Linux in general.

Don’t worry, they’re saying it too! https://theintercept.com/2025/01/09/facebook-instagram-meta-hate-speech-content-moderation/

If you’re in the US, sure. If you’re in Europe you can compel them to completely delete everything as per the GDPR.

Straight+cis people too. I’m downloading an export of my Facebook info as we speak in preparation for closing it down.

Sleeping, really? It seems wide awake to me.

You’re being too charitable. All that doesn’t excuse the fact that half of Americans willingly embrace hateful policies in the first place. The logistics of implementation are not all that relevant if you hear something like “we will deport one million immigrants” and think yeah, that sounds great to me.
