“All” is all content on the fediverse, across all instances with which your home instance is federated. It will be similar for all instances, because most are federated with the big instances and those tend to have more posts and interaction.

If you only want to see the feed of communities on your local instance, you can just browse your “Local” feed.

I mean, simple file should already be a thing, and the IRS would prefer it be easier for everyone to file. But h&r block and turbotax have lobbied heavily against it because they’d lose money with easier filing. One way to make things more streamlined and efficient would be to get rid of middle men and focus on making internal systems better.

But this administration wants the internal systems to be broken and needlessly complex so that they can outsource it to their preferred middle men so that they all make a lot more money.

I think it’s from “The Founder” about the guy who turned McDonald’s into a national chain.

This is a better example

Right. It’s basically Jesus (or whoever the story teller is from the other perspective) saying, “I know you all are racist. Stop it. Anyone can be a good person. Do better.”

A guess a slightly less charitable interpretation could be: ‘even this evil person can do good once in a while, why aren’t you?’ but aligning with a lot of the other parables I feel like it’s more than likely to be the first one.

That is kind of the point or the parable, right? But the parable wasn’t ‘othering’ them, it was showing how their background/race/religion/heritage isn’t what made them ‘good’ or ‘bad,’ it’s their actions that matter.

Society at the time already encouraged people to think of Samaritans as the other and to look down on them. The parable tells of an injured, vulnerable traveler in a time of need. Many Jews, members of high society, etc. (people normally thought of as 'good) walk by and ignore the man. A Samaritan passes by and offers aid. Of all the people who walked by, only the Samaritan is worthy of heaven. The moral is that anyone can be a good person by helping others…the kingdom of heaven is open to all, not just the Jews, and that your actions/the way you live your life is more important than what you call yourself, what tribe you belong to, who your parents are.

It’s one of the most basic messages in the Bible. It is clearly anti-racist. It promotes helping others above all else. And somehow modern Christians seem to miss the point completely.

I love that extension

You should still be able to navigate to those posts by changing the link to old.reddit.com. But I assume that will go away at some point too.

The rich guy comes in, forces the poor locals to build the road, and then keeps the profits from all of the new labor he is able to exploit.

It’s insane. And any attempt to argue against it is shut down immediately. This post (https://mkorostoff.github.io/1-pixel-wealth/?v=3) is one of the most digestible things I’ve seen for the scale at which those people hoard wealth. It’s so easy to follow and understand how the world could be better if those people didn’t exist. But anyone I try talking to says “oh I’m not going to read all that” or “scrolling through that will take too long” …which is exactly the fucking point. And this is from 4 years ago! Their wealth has only increased while our buying power has gone down.

At step 3. Where the rich person forces conditions onto you and takes most of your production. That is immoral. Especially if he has the resources for both to survive with less effort just by not being selfish

Thick as a Brick

Exact same reason as OP. It’s annoying to have something pop up on my phone that I didn’t ask for. I don’t like floating overlay buttons.

Agreed, I hate it

Right, I do despise the Democrats but I still voted Harris for harm reduction. If anything, these 4 long years mentioned above are just going to make me despise Democrats more for fumbling the election so badly

There are still quite a few around Ohio. I haven’t been in years though, because yea, it’s disappointing now.

Interesting, didn’t know that it was like that throughout Canada too. None of those options are available to me in the Midwest US. And agree! Definitely think it’s funny to point out, I just was giving more context because I (incorrectly) thought it was only “regular” in a small region.

I think that’s regional, maybe to east coast US (or just NYC)? Anywhere else I’ve been in the US “regular coffee” referred to black coffee.

“Café negro” (which I’ve never heard for black coffee) would be “Café solo” or “Café sin leche” (literally, “coffee by itself”, or “coffee without milk”). “Café con leche” would be coffee with milk, which definitely is not black coffee.
