It works on liberals because they pretend to be the “good” cop. Give something similar to Trump and you’ll just be flattering him and his white supremacist base. They want genocide.

Oh look… it’s Genocide Joe.

I have to admit that GIMP has me beat - I’ve taught myself plenty of progs (usually in a panic because I told the interviewer I could use it and therefore had to learn it real fast - that’s how I learned Illustrator, CorelDRAW and QuarkXpress), but I just can’t seem to get the hang of GIMP.

It’s just standard corporatese - if it’s not insulting your intelligence they’re not doing it right.

By what measure is China or Russia “the South”?

Russia certainly was after the fall of the USSR - whether it still is is open to debate. China is an active exploiter of the “Global South” - which kind of means the concept is overdue for an update.

ZA thought their ties with the ICC are more important

Nahh, they didn’t want another repeat of the al-Bashir debacle. South Africa’s ANC regime will bend over backwards for the west and especially western corporations - but the US forgot that they will only do so behind closed doors.

I’m still undecided as to who is more irritating to deal with… the tankies over in .ml or the liberals over here.

I am really tired to hear “Global South” over and over again.

We are perfectly aware that beneficiaries of colonisation (like you) would like us here in the Global South to just shut up and give you our resources and labour for absolutely nothing - so there’s no need to say the quiet part out loud, okay?

The kitty seems impressed.

Oh, look… a dishonest parasite and an honest one - but both are stil parasites.

If there was a third sink in-between I could see this working.
