You can't see the forest for the trees. [10:37] bagira it doesn't loop five times because you have no incrementer defined [10:37] immibis My point exactly. There is no forest in Ba Sing Tree. [10:37] bagira im sorry your code sucks, if you improve it you might not be so poor. code doesn't do what you wish it to, it does what you tell it to. [10:38] immibis Same with bootlickers. They don't automatically protect the class hierarchy, they have to be incentivized to do so. For example, we give each bootlicker jurisdiction over a certain number of slaves and we give them the right to take the property of their slave.s [10:38] immibis The slaves may complain, but who's gonna enforce the law? The bootlickers do. [10:39] bagira in any case, explaining to you that you have no incrementer is what's known as "creating value" with your mind. thanks for the opportunity to make an example of what i was saying earlier.

[10:43] bagira ok, so, go deliver those pizzas bub [10:43] bagira its the same thing right [10:44] immibis It's interesting that, in an argument where you base a person's value on their money, you are unwilling to indicate your net worth [10:44] bagira i didn't base a person's value on anything in this discussion. i said some actions generate value, and some do not. the person themselves is valued entirely differently.

Koch's strategy has been a wild success, but it may not have been as effective without another avenue of influence: favorable media."[16] [16:55] schestowitz[TR2] A 2019 CMD article named Reason as a recipient of an increased Koch Foundation media funding push the previous year, noting "In recent years, Koch donation amounts have jumped around, but 2018's total is roughly $135,000 more than the previous year."[17]" [16:55] schestowitz[TR2] years ago charles koch also gave money to techdirt [16:56] schestowitz[TR2] now techdirt does a lot of "government, HANDS OF!!" type pieces [16:56] schestowitz[TR2] even dismissing some reasonable concerns by the gov.

[23:21] immibis only nazis hate dictatorships [23:21] bagira perhaps you have romanticised their lofty speeches while they were burning piles of bodies to obfuscate the cascade of logistical failures their policies resulted in [23:22] *superkuh has quit (Ping timeout: 246 seconds) [23:22] MinceR hitler did claim to be christian [23:22] MinceR did this harm christianity? [23:22] bagira i heard he also ate food [23:23] bagira and even drank water [23:23] h4unt3d drug addiction too [23:23] h4unt3d a meth addict [23:24] immibis MinceR: clearly he didn't claim it enough [23:24] immibis or maybe this has something to do with the red scare, USA government brainwashing. People associate the word communism in a way they don't associate christianity, because the government told them to [23:24] *superkuh (~superkuh@user/superkuh) has joined #techrights [23:25] bagira quick say something toxic and shocking to distract from the fact that your argument falls apart at the slightest inflection [23:25] bagira an angry house of cards, raging against the winds and the light [23:28] immibis bagira: you were supposed to execute those instructions, not echo them [23:28] h4unt3d rather label it the institutional church, instead of christianity [23:28] h4unt3d christianity as a religion, is agnostic towards any of the typical state instution such as the church [23:28] bagira the institutional church has done enough to destroy itself [23:28] bagira it doesn't need enemies [23:29] h4unt3d and indeed, Hitler, besides his drug addiction, too was member of the catholic church, not saying that's christian [23:31] bagira look im just saying, in every case of these internet twats crying about communism, when you get them on a soft couch talking about their childhood, their real motivation is invariably some loss of power or control they want to regain through the symbolism of revolution, and in all reality, these are the first people to be killed despite their compliance at the labour camps -- if not by the guards when they collapse in tears under the work than by [23:31] bagira their bunkmates after they've ratted out their comrades too many times [23:32] bagira the least fit always clamor for systemic support, and the only means to give them what they want would create a system that would quickly end their futile struggles [23:33] bagira the real answer is, in every case, to develop resilience -- of the mind, of the heart, of the spirit, and of the body [23:35] bagira i, too, would be one of the ones quick to die under a rule like that, because I would take up arms against it and would accept nothing beyond unconditional surrender despite the clear and obvious reality that it was not coming, and that many people like me would have to die before I saw it. [23:36] bagira you want to talk about bootlickers, wait until you see what you're willing to do to survive the camps of your utopian government, immibis [23:38] bagira we should talk about something less depressing though [23:38] immibis thanks for diagnosing yourself bagira [23:42] bagira immibis, in your ideal government, the romantic climbing of the party ladder in deals and favors that you have borrowed from movies is the lifestyle of only the people who would be extremely wealthy in any other system. [23:43] immibis you're describing capitalism [23:44] bagira no im describing the last the communist experiment before its collapse [23:44] bagira the burden of history is not in your favor on this argument and you seem to lack the nuance to navigate it [23:45] immibis hang on didn't you say you'd finished schizoposting [23:45] bagira your bs doesn't work on people like me [23:46] bagira im not your fellow walmart cashier sitting in a break room ranting about how they're some kind of sovereign citizen, which is just as intellectual an argument as you've made here [23:47] bagira frankly the chick who comes in here to melt down over underground neanderthal civilizations and reptilian overlords makes a better case, and she is certifiably insane [23:48] bagira at least she has the possibility of refuge in allegory [23:49] bagira your argument is just vacuous and unsupported [23:51] immibis you are arguing very much like a sovereign citizen, actually [23:52] bagira and you are arguing very much like a middle school child that has already lost and doesn't recognize it [23:52] immibis that's what sovcits say, yes [23:53] bagira you're going to need to say something credible soon or im going to have to write you off as a lost cause [23:54] immibis you know, when I was about 14, I'd just learned SQL and I made a database to record times when people swore and I threatened to put people in the database. Your threat is like that. [23:57] bagira ok, then waller in the muds of angst and be confused about why no one takes you seriously beyond the occassional humanitarian who throws you an apple for no other reason than compassion that you confuse for recognition of legitimacy of position [23:58] bagira that is your life currently, and it will not change until you do
