Cruises are cool. The problem is that modern cruises are ecologically ass and only reasonably affordable to the rich.

Red Hat / IBM have contracts with the Israeli military so yes

I once had a fairly humorous interaction with someone who has DID:

“Where am I, what year is it?”

“You’re in Ireland, it’s 2026.”

“Did you guys reunify yet?”

“Alas, no.”

“FUCK!”

It’s rather terrifying to come to and have no idea what country you’re in but the priorities are correct it seems.

Ah my bad didn’t realise that was the same guy in the screenshot and the reply chain

Sorry if I am misunderstanding you, but not every Marxist is a tankie.
