I grew up in a large city in a western democracy, with a socialist city government and it was fine.
There was basically no crime. People didn’t go hungry. Housing was affordable. Rent was regulated. Public transport was amazing. Education was free. Everyone had healthcare. Taxes were practically the same as in the US.
It was also much, much easier to start a business there than in the US. (Literally took an hour!)
People who wanted to get rich still could do it (there’s a few Austrian billionaires even).
I don’t understand how Americans got themselves so brainwashed that “socialism” is used as a term that sort of means “iworse than death”.
¯\_(ツ)_/¯

Donald Trump’s hateful, falsehood-filled rant on Thursday
blaming immigrants for crime, “social dysfunction” and economic hardship
is refuted by a wide range of immigration statistics,
which show clearly that immigrants dramatically bolster the US economy
and commit crimes at far lower rates than people born in the US.

I don't know what the fuck is happening to software. Start Chrome on a new phone and it crashes, log in to a new Gmail account and it shows a “500 error" banner for 2 seconds. Open Google calendar, switch to the weekly view and the events are displayed as GIGA NARROW UNREADABLE BOXES.
YouTube on iOS? For months had a problem where sometimes the UI has the wrong colors, probably because of the dark mode thing.

Carney will mit Selenskyj sprechen
Der kanadische Ministerpräsident Mark Carney will noch heute mit dem ukrainischen Präsidenten Wolodymyr Selenskyj über den von den USA vorgeschlagenen "Friedensplan" sprechen. Westliche Staats- und Regierungschefs hätten sich bereits am Samstag am Rande des G20-Treffens in Südafrika auf eine gemeinsame Position zu dem 28-Punkte-Plan verständigt, die nach Washington übermittelt worden sei, sag…

ICE purposefully rammed their vehicle into a protestor’s truck in California.
In Chicago, federal agents tear gassed local police during a protest.
This is what happens when a wannabe dictator is running the country.
This is why millions of Americans peacefully stood up to defend our rights in the No Kings protests.
Peaceful protest is not a crime. It’s the foundation of our democracy.
