  • This is something that bothers me. Every time something like this come up, there is a non-trivial crowd of people saying things like “no shit. In the right circle, everyone known for a long time”. Often they come with specific anecdotes that should raise all the red flags.

    Well, I had no idea. Not a clue. And it’s not like I was not interested. I was fallowing his work, social media… live in general. He was a very close friend with a woman who was vocal about being an abuse victim. Nobody told her?

    Even in the power of hindsight, when I was looking for articles or comments from the past, there was not a lot. I found like one, “there is nothing he wouldn’t do to lure a goth girl” (paraphrased), that got zero traction.

    If there were signs, why did we let that happen? What can I do, not to fall for something like this again?




  • There is a freekonomic episode about how the easiest way to murder someone in US is to run them with your car. There is a reasonable chance you’ll go free. US is so car-centric that it’s a dogma that car accidents are unavoidable part of life.

    So “for bike lane” seams very reductive.

    There is an argument that more people will die because lack of protest like that than during those.

    This hypothetically raging lunatic don’t disappear when you are alone, trying to survive on the infrastructure build without any consideration that you exist. If he’s a danger here, he’s a danger there. Where you are alone.

    (Also, where I live protest like those are coordinated with police. Why is no one protecting nor serving here?)


  • Thank you. I need to find new instance for myself because lemme.ee. can you tell me why you chose blahaj.zone? I don’t want to support Russia in any way or form. It should be boycotted.

    But I also think that crony capitalism will be our downfall. I try to reduce my reliance on US-based products, serviced and culture. Especially, on giants like google, disney, MS, etc. Boycotting US until they rethink they approach to allies like Canada, EU and Ukraine is also called for.

    If you don’t mind, what would you recommend to someone who would like their revolution with no gulags?
