News@lemmy.world•Former DEA agent charged with agreeing to launder millions of dollars for Mexican drug cartelEnglish
4·19 hours agoIt was intended to be disruptive to poor and minority communities. It was designed as a way to target “undesirable” people and populations.
I take your meaning, but the war on drugs was a hugely successful project when one considers that mass incarceration was the goal.

Do fascists actually like the game? I thought it’d be too much reading for them.

3·4 days agoThe only issue I get with PipePipe is that when I switch from LTE to WiFi the stream cuts off and won’t restart due to an error. I can play other stuff through the app, just not what I was listening to after the network change.

politics @lemmy.world•Pipe bomb suspect told FBI he believed 2020 election conspiracy theoriesEnglish
15·4 days agoThe man charged with planting two pipe bombs near the Democratic and Republican party headquarters on the eve of the Jan. 6 attack on the U.S. Capitol told the FBI he believed conspiracy theories about the 2020 election, according to two people familiar with the matter.
So… Not an anarchist like the cops initially reported, but rather a stupid and violent right-wing “lone wolf.” What prize do I win for correctly predicting this? I must be able to see the future to know that the cops were bullshitting, huh?

politics @lemmy.world•FBI arrests suspect in Jan. 6 pipe bomb case: MS NOWEnglish
16·5 days agoWho wants to bet that this is just another right-wing nutjob and not an “anarchist” at all?
I might believe the cops if they weren’t constantly caught lying to further their right-wing projects.
Bill Maher is the patron saint of reactionary centrism. The smug overinflated dickhead has been parroting Fox News talking points while pretending they’re reasonable for decades now.
But then you can’t tell at a glance what kind of die it is.

Movies@lemmy.world•Anyone here ever see Bicentennial Man?English
6·8 days agoI actually just watched it again a couple months ago.
I think it’s one of Robin Williams’ best movies; his voice is so emotive that it made Andrew relatable even though his actual face is covered up through the first half of the film.
The themes are great, too. I especially liked what it says about living as one’s authentic self despite society’s expectations & how we should trust that one’s described lived experience is genuine.

Today I Learned@lemmy.world•TIL - the recorder can actually make decent music. Ralf Bienioschek performs BOHEMIAN RHAPSODY a Recorder Cover of the song by QUEEN. And it's a good cover.English
5·9 days agoThe worst part is that schools use the recorders with “German” fingerings which make a C major scale dead easy, but anything else is a nightmare.
So it’s next to useless for actually learning to play recorder, too.

News@lemmy.world•Texas Gov. Greg Abbott, Long a Defender of States’ Rights, Embraces Trump’s Push to Expand Presidential PowerEnglish
6·10 days agoYeah, there is a common misconception that conservatism is about “small government” and “States rights.”
In reality, these reactionaries will use any kind of bad-faith argument, distraction, distortion, or outright lie to consolidate power for their white-supremacist christofascist project.
Their only true principle is that they can tell other people what to do and how to live. The purpose of every single policy and process that they push is to defend and entrench the hierarchy from which they benefit.
















Beautiful! I love your use of hatching and shading in different parts.
