Agreed. And I have to say, to me it did seem like a reaction that came from rock bottom (in his individuality). And it was interesting to see other healthcare companies (like the one called blue-something) revisiting their recent measures on screwing people…

This reminds me of anarchistic work from Severino Di Giovanni…

iirc the admins and users from hexbear already moved to another platform (not lemmy), this is just what 1 admin decided to do some time before that ‘split’ happened (again, the majority already moved out)

I agree… like on a theoretical level. Then, USA is what it is, with their school shootings and all. So, what Luigi Mangione (or someone else) did should be seen in that context. There’s a certain virtue in knowing to direct your anger/ despair to those causing, enjoying, and profiting over your misery. And it wasn’t a mere revenge act, it is full of symbolism if only because here we are, discussing it.

Another remake movie that’s not better or even up to the standard set by the original. At least they didn’t spend a whole lot of money.

Will anyone acknowledge the fact that you only learn to ride a bike once? To me, the saying “is like riding a bike” means the opposite…

I hope more “Americans” (*) reading this would take it to their heart and check what they’re posting, commenting, and up/ down voting. Change starts from ourselves.

(*) Americans is a term I am not comfortable with, but there’s no alternative, right? I am from South America and always pissed me a bit that up there they are “the Americans”. Is like the argument over the Gulf… only that it was never discussed :(

Not a counterpoint, but to extend a bit on how it could be done: encrypted data. Or, self-hosting server part available, like Mozilla’s (i.e. GarduaLinux has a fork of Librewolf/ Floorp, called Firedragon which uses their own firefox server for account sync)
