Everyone who needs to strike is living paycheck to paycheck. Nobody wants to become homeless in order to strike. And our media and networking are largely controlled by compromised assets.
I’ve been in and out of politics as a personal interest since the early 2000a. We’re in a really bad situation right now.
Without a central voice to organize and lead people we’re not going to be able to coordinate enough people across the country
I want you to understand what it is you’re talking about when you say things like this:
You are asking for what it’s the equivalent of all of Europe revolting against leadership that never leaves Prague.
America is really fucking big. I live in Seattle. I have been protesting. But my state officials are already more or less on my side
For me to protest in a way that actually causes a problem for the people in power I would need to drive no less than 41 hours if I didn’t sleep. Realistically it’s 3-4 days each way. Or hundreds of dollars in airfare or train tickets.
And of course I’d be fired for missing work.
I’m pissed as any American but what the fuck am I supposed to do? Asking America to revolt isn’t like asking England or France or Belgium. Our leaders are in a proverbial ivory tower and we’ve been stripped of any ability to effect change through anything but a national strike, which has not been successfully organized, largely due to the scale required.
We have 341m people on 10M km² of land. Compare that to somewhere like Germany with 84m people on 357k km²
It’s a much easier proposition getting 10% of Germans to their capital than getting 10% of Americans to ours
This person is suggesting that there are more options to pursue than meeting people at work and the gym. And that it sounds like something else might be stopping you from seeking those things out.
It’s really, really easy to find a ton of information on Hezbollah and their history of criminal atrocities. Like, 20 minutes of googling easy.
Also it wasn’t my comment you were replying to.
Which sea and which river was that again? Is it perhaps some geography that categorically precludes the existence of Israel? Since, you know, from the river to the sea must be free, and I am pretty sure they don’t mean “free, under Israeli governance”
“Caring about Palestine” is not the same as waving the flags of Hezbollah, and Hamas, and changing “from the river to the sea”
I support Palestine and Palestinians. Israel is committing genocide.
I am also Jewish and will never wave a Hezbollah or Hamas flag, nor will you ever hear me chant that antisemitic phrase promoting the extermination of Jews.
You’re acting just as bad as the Israelis when it comes to perceiving anything but complete support for everything they do as an attack
I have a moto and hate Dolby Atmos for headphones
Instead, turn that shit completely off and get an app called “Wavelet”. Use the AutoEQ function with your headphones model.
The purpose of the AutoEQ is to return audio to “studio reference” EQ based on the measured frequency response curve of the model of headphones you have
If it still sounds bad to your ears then there are two possibilities:
The hardware is defective. You could try getting it replaced
Your old phone has settings that were so bass-heavy that your sense of what’s “right” has changed
I recommend trying out AutoEQ on another device that you know works. Make sure that all other audio processing is disabled when using AutoEQ. This will give you a good baseline to compare against
On Windows you can get AutoEQ using EqualizerAPO + HeSuVi (a front-end for setting up EqualizerAPO to enable custom virtual surround sound and AutoEQ)
