00:00 schestowitz-TR; when the economy is broken, that's it
00:00 DaemonFC; I wasn't in Chicago long enough to vote for a mayor. I was in right after Rahm took office.
00:00 schestowitz-TR; no matter who takes over
00:00 schestowitz-TR; obama took a mess also
00:00 DaemonFC; And out right before Lightfoot got in.
00:00 schestowitz-TR; iunherited with two major ongoing wars
00:00 leah; i prefer not to read the tabloids so i'm reading wikpedia
00:00 *psymin has quit (Quit: Leaving)
00:00 *psymin has quit (Quit: Leaving)
00:00 leah; wikipedia is fairer
00:00 leah; case in point: it's honest about me. i hate everything it says about me
00:00 leah; which is: nothing at all
00:00 DaemonFC; https://www.illinoispolicy.org/chicagos-test-to-hand-500-a-month-to-low-income-families-stalls/
00:00 TR Bot; Chicagos test to hand $500 a month to low-income families stalls
00:00 leah; so i'm inclined to trust it
00:00 schestowitz-TR; leah: wikipedia page is a liability
00:01 DaemonFC; 5,000 low income families from a lottery get $500 a month for a year. Eventually.....
00:01 schestowitz-TR; because any credit can vandalise it
00:01 schestowitz-TR; so it becomes an overhead
00:01 DaemonFC; I wouldn't move back to Chicago if they gave me $500 a month, no conditions, forever.
00:01 schestowitz-TR; a past lawyer of mine did not want me to link to it
00:01 leah; "While in high school, Lightfoot helped organize a boycott of her school's lunch program over the quality of its pizza.[16] Her boycott was a success as the school provided more flavorful pizza.[14] Her punishment for the boycott was detention.[13]"

00:02 DaemonFC; This incident was known as Pizzagate.
00:02 schestowitz-TR; leah: half-life
00:04 DaemonFC; The scammers have been busy today. Scam Shield blocked most.
00:04 leah; i'm reading her wikipedia
00:04 leah; she seems reasonable
00:04 DaemonFC; Not really.

00:05 DaemonFC; Rename everything in the city.

00:05 TR Bot; Vaccination proof may be needed in Chicago for venue access
00:05 DaemonFC; Vaccine passports will be the final straw. Chicago is dead as a tourist city.
00:06 leah; also, the term sjw is highly loaded and misleading
00:06 leah; and she seems fair not-that, so far, from my reading of her wikpedia
00:06 leah; as in, she doesn't seem to adhere to that charicature
00:07 leah; looks like just another boring democrat
00:07 leah; fairly*
00:07 DaemonFC; The pretend the vaccine works.
00:08 DaemonFC; You take real consequences if the vaccine goes wrong.
00:08 DaemonFC; Easier to just not live in the city and boycott it.
00:08 leah; oh, you're one of those people
00:08 DaemonFC; It's not even slowing anything down.
00:09 *leah is double vaxxed, but thinks people should have the choice whether to do it or not
00:09 DaemonFC; If you add what Florida's figures would be if they were telling the truth, there'd be over 1,900 dead per day and almost 200,000 daily cases in the US right now.
00:09 DaemonFC; And climbing.
00:09 leah; but yeah i've finished skimming wikipedia
00:09 DaemonFC; The vaccine hasn't put a dent in it.
00:09 leah; this lady seems reasonable, even nice
00:10 DaemonFC; Oh sure, which is why crime just got entirely out of control after Rahm left.
00:10 DaemonFC; Fuck Chicago. Let it fail.
00:10 leah; when was she elected?
00:10 DaemonFC; They got the government they voted for.
00:10 TR News; FSF Adopts A Board Member Agreement, Code of Ethics For Board Members http://www.tuxmachines.org/node/159207#comment-32153
00:10 TR Bot; FSF Adopts New Governance Framework for Board Members | Tux Machines
00:10 DaemonFC; Early 2019.
00:10 leah; that explains it then
00:10 leah; covid caused poverty everywhere
00:10 leah; and poverty leads to crime
00:11 DaemonFC; Democrat lockdowns caused the poverty.
00:11 DaemonFC; And we've got worse COVID results than most of our neighbors anyway.
00:11 DaemonFC; Including Wisconsin, which never shut down.
00:11 DaemonFC; The state supreme court up there threw out the mask mandate too.
00:12 DaemonFC; And Illinois still has worse numbers.
00:12 leah; if i understand your politics correctly, chicago has been poor for a very long time
00:12 DaemonFC; Not this bad.
00:12 leah; poor people are more likely to live communally, and be unable to live independently on their own
00:12 DaemonFC; No, and the city is rich.
00:12 leah; so for such people, lockdowns are less effective, because they can't socially distance
00:12 DaemonFC; People just need to leave.
00:12 DaemonFC; It's unfixable at the ballot box.
00:12 leah; further, such people can't really stay at home. they're often the very same low skilled people that were called "essential workers" during the height of the pandemic
00:13 leah; that meant more people were out working, through no other choice available to them
00:13 leah; and hence more covid
00:13 DaemonFC; As long as the Democrats control everything, it's going to be lockdowns, business failures, no jobs, high taxes, and soaring rent.
00:13 leah; and more death
00:13 leah; whereas wisconsin is wealthier, yes?
00:13 DaemonFC; Democrat Death Spiral
00:13 leah; it's the same thing here in the UK
00:13 DaemonFC; They don't have as much total wealth, but most people up there do better.
00:13 leah; north got fucked, because everyone is poor and couldn't afford to stay at home
00:13 leah; so covid is worse up north
00:13 DaemonFC; Chicago has more inequality than a deep red state.
00:14 *leah lives in the south
00:14 leah; from your words, i guess you identify with the republican party
00:14 DaemonFC; It's like Indiana, you know. Poorer than Illinois on paper, but less inequality.
00:14 leah; which is fair enough. i have friends from both sides of the political spectrum
00:14 DaemonFC; So bigger middle class. Even the poor do better, because they pay less to live.
00:15 leah; but yes, lockdowns are stupid
00:15 DaemonFC; When your rent is 2-2.5x what it is in Indiana, and your taxes are 40% higher, etc. etc., you need the extra money just to be level.
00:15 DaemonFC; Then, ironically, you do worse because of having more money.
00:15 DaemonFC; The cutoff for Medicaid and food stamps and housing vouchers is the same, but you "make more money".
00:16 leah; what you need is to invest in education of youths. give young people opportunities
00:16 DaemonFC; Chicago doesn't do that.
00:16 leah; and give the same job opportunities to adults too
00:16 leah; poverty is the only problem
00:16 DaemonFC; The do-nothing "state workers" at Chicago Public Schools are eating up all of the money.
00:16 DaemonFC; The district has the worst school rating for one that size in America.
00:16 leah; when you're poor, and don't have life chances, you're more likely to get involved in crimes as a matter of survival
00:17 leah; anyway
00:17 leah; yawn
00:17 leah; american politics are insane enough to the point where i just meh the fuck out
00:18 DaemonFC; It's $50 million dollars in debt and going, not counting the billion dollars in unfunded pensions just to get it through 2060.
00:18 leah; have fun being based :P
00:18 DaemonFC; They keep getting state bailouts which just forces the people who budgeted less terribly suffer to pay for all of the corruption and fuck-ups in Chicago.
00:19 leah; schestowitz-TR: and that fsf post from today is absolutely meh
00:19 DaemonFC; The politics of Illinois are odd.
00:19 leah; the problems the fsf face aren't being addressed or even acknowledged
00:19 leah; but for such an organisation, formalized structures like that can be useful i suppose
00:19 DaemonFC; People outside Chicago hate the city, don't want anything to do with it, and certainly don't want their tax money going there.
00:20 leah; but those news posts today are just political score pointing
00:20 DaemonFC; There have been serious proposals to split the state in two and create the state of Illinois and the state of Chicago.
00:20 leah; lots of people complained about the lack of such things and now they want to sort of save face i guess
00:20 DaemonFC; It's a dysfunctional marriage. The only reason Illinois is a blue state is because of 1 county, out of 102.
00:20 leah; when you have to write something like that down, you've already failed
00:21 leah; they should just focus on useful endeavours, not political window dressing. but i digress
00:21 DaemonFC; Things are so lopsided that they can foist a governor who lost 101 counties on the rest of the state.
00:21 DaemonFC; They did it with Pat Quinn.

00:23 leah; unfortunately, that 2017 speech from john isn't on there
00:23 leah; they only started recording 2018 talks
00:23 DaemonFC; I can't name any other state where one city is the state, except maybe New York.
00:23 leah; schestowitz-TR: wanna see me absolutely fail at life?

00:23 TR Bot; #live 2018 - Leah Rowe - Libreboot - YouTube
00:23 leah; this talk was a total disaster :P
00:24 DaemonFC; The Democrats just repartitioned everything to cut everyone else almost completely out of the state's politics.
00:24 leah; my favourite comments there:
00:24 leah; "Nerd level 100"
00:24 DaemonFC; My inclination is to vote for a Republican governor next year just to slow the legislature down.
00:24 leah; "This person should not give talks. This sucks."
00:25 DaemonFC; It's literally just people having bad ideas and turning them into the law.
00:25 leah; but i had fun. and i met john there that day ;)
00:25 leah; even helped at the fsf's booth there. helping them sell... emacs and gcc manuals
00:26 leah; in fact john gave me a usb-powered vga to hdmi adapter but i neglected to realize: i needed to plug the usb part in
00:26 leah; so i couldn't get my laptop working on their projector. hence no slides
00:26 leah; and i was their keynote speaker lol
00:26 leah; (i was the first speaker. on the first day)
00:31 leah; DaemonFC: and the reason new covid strains keep appearing and resisting vaccines is because poor countries (especially in africa) can't get vaccines, so people are unvaccinated and keep spreading the virus, and it mutates
00:31 leah; then it spreads around the world
00:32 *leah just giving facts. no judgement
00:32 leah; but the vaccines do make a difference in reducing the number of deaths
00:33 leah; i'm pro-vaccine but also pro-freedom and anti-lockdown
00:33 DaemonFC; I'm vaccinated, but I just really don't see the point at this juncture.
00:33 DaemonFC; If I had it to do over again knowing what I do now, probably wouldn't.
00:33 leah; so i sympathize with some of what you said
00:33 leah; and i understand your frustrations. sometimes the politicians let you down
00:33 leah; even if they had good intent
00:33 DaemonFC; I had some serious side effects to the third dose that went on for over a month.
00:33 DaemonFC; That's going to be the last.
00:34 leah; i only ask that people try not to fall into a mob mentality or try to scapegoat
00:34 DaemonFC; If I get it at this point I'll just request standard care if it gets that bad.
00:34 leah; because 1 person can only do so much damage
00:34 leah; none of what's happening is really anyone's fault
00:35 leah; we're all just humans trying and failing to do the right thing, and occasionally we make a few successes, but mostly we fail
00:35 leah; life doesn't happen for you. it happens to you
00:35 leah; and you just have to make the best of it
00:36 leah; so-called red states are probably wealthier, and therefore people can afford better healthcare, better access to things like ppe, can better isolate, etc. more options
00:36 leah; and less covid
00:37 DaemonFC; Indiana has less wealth "per capita", but wealth is never distributed evenly.
00:37 leah; and those places probably have more people vaccinated too, becuse of that
00:37 DaemonFC; So it's not like you go to Indiana and you make $45,000 and you go to Illinois and you make $60,000 or whatever it is, and that's not even apples to apples anyway.
00:37 leah; anyway, i'm out
00:37 DaemonFC; Because the cost of living is so much lower in Indiana, as are the taxes.
00:38 DaemonFC; Wealth goes straight to the top in places like Chicago.
00:38 DaemonFC; And the cost of living is brutal, so you have to be rich to be poor.
00:38 leah; schestowitz-TR: the isn't evil. just meh. i only want them to stop listing technoethical so that i stop having to deal with people coming to me about them
00:38 DaemonFC; The governor is a billionaire. An actual billionaire.
00:38 leah; the fsf isn't evil*
00:38 DaemonFC; A hotel heir. He's the 1%.
00:38 DaemonFC; Here to tell us what's right and wrong, don'tcha know?
00:39 DaemonFC; Never had to work a day in his life. He knows all about money, work, and the economy!
00:39 leah; sorry DaemonFC but this is heavy for me. i'm just gonna chill and watch cartoons while resuming my work
00:39 leah; good luck with your things
00:39 DaemonFC; Ahh, I just mean I love it when rich people richsplain what I'm doing wrong.
00:40 leah; i'm neither for nor against you, and i can see that you're passionate and care about others. you see injustices in things, from your own perspective. and i admire your passion
00:40 leah; and i think you should pursue your politics further
00:40 DaemonFC; If I had only known better I would have said "That couple! I want to be the child heir of a hotel fortune!".
00:40 leah; my advice to you is: don't just question it. fight it
00:40 leah; but that's all for now
00:40 *leah out
00:40 DaemonFC; Then I wouldn't have been so silly as to scrimp and save and try to earn wages. Hahaha
00:41 DaemonFC; I love America, where any child heir of a hotel fortune can grow up and be the governor of Illinois.
00:41 DaemonFC; It's never anyone who worked for a living. They sneer at those people. Send the cops in to beat them up when they go on strike because they aren't earning fair wages.
00:42 leah; fwiw if i was to vote for 2 candidates and one was lgbtq, but the other had a better set of policies and credentials, i wouldn't vote for the lgbtq candidate. despite being non-binary and pansexual myself
00:42 DaemonFC; That's what I told schestowitz-TR about Pete Buttigieg.
00:42 DaemonFC; I didn't vote for him.
00:42 leah; in fact
00:42 schestowitz-TR; just did a video about fsf
00:42 schestowitz-TR; 27 minds
00:42 schestowitz-TR; *mins
00:43 leah; i once actively campainged to *remove* an lgbtq person from a branch of the uk labour party, back when i was a member
00:43 DaemonFC; Buttigieg is a social climber.
00:43 leah; she was incompetent at her job, and extremely dangerous and a huge liability
00:43 DaemonFC; He threw it all into winning a few states so Biden would have to give him something out of a spoils system to bow out and not cause a mess.
00:43 leah; and i succeeded. and helped someone else win a campaign to replace her
00:43 DaemonFC; And every state that Buttigieg won was almost 100% white.
00:43 leah; the position was: lgbtq officer. but the person in question was a terf
00:44 leah; i got her removed
00:44 leah; her name is: miranda yardley. you can look her up
00:44 DaemonFC; Once you got out into the states with more black and brown people Biden started to slug it out with Sanders.
00:44 DaemonFC; Then Illinois made the most corrupt primary ever.
00:44 leah; a very cool guy (gay guy who i knew) replaced her
00:44 DaemonFC; They held it on time, in person, during the COVID total lockdown.
00:44 DaemonFC; They took the polling machines out of the nursing homes and wouldn't give them absentee ballots.
00:45 psydroid2; the American Dream is a FATA MORGANA delivered to you by a GAMMA ray
00:45 DaemonFC; So they cheated pretty much all of the nursing home residents out of their vote.
00:45 leah; schestowitz-TR: link?
00:45 schestowitz-TR; psydroid2: ah
00:45 schestowitz-TR; leah: not yet
00:45 schestowitz-TR; needs transcoding and uploading
00:45 DaemonFC; I went down there in person anyway even though we were told that COVID was the big bad wolf, and nobody knew any better back then.
00:45 DaemonFC; And I voted in person for Bernie Sanders.
00:46 DaemonFC; I felt it was important to have a real choice other than Trump.
00:46 DaemonFC; Biden is not much better.
00:46 DaemonFC; Not much better than Trump at all. Stallman gives Biden too much credit.
00:46 DaemonFC; He says Biden wants to do good things but Senators Manchin and Sinema are in the way. He could get them out of the way if he wanted to. He does not want BBB that much, not the second part.

00:48 DaemonFC; Snap into line or I'll make sure you don't get a dime from the DSCC.
00:49 DaemonFC; They're too concerned that Manchin will switch parties, so they give him whatever he wants so they don't lose the Senate, yet.
00:49 DaemonFC; There's some value in that. They need to make sure there's no vacancies left on any of the federal courts before January 3rd, 2023, and they aren't doing a bang up job of it now.
00:51 schestowitz-TR; DaemonFC: while Manchin takes bribes from REPUBLICAN donors
00:52 schestowitz-TR; what a farcical political system
00:52 DaemonFC; They're not going to do better than Manchin in West Virginia.
00:52 schestowitz-TR; where you can buy moles and make moles by bribing them
00:52 DaemonFC; If he switches parties or quits running as a Democrat for the Senate there, you get another Republican senator.

01:35 schestowitz-TR; 1) they cannot afford
01:35 schestowitz-TR; 2) can afford at great personal expense

01:36 DaemonFC; And you can't eat video games and lipstick.
01:36 schestowitz-TR; make it easier fot them to buy food, wigs, give them health coverage
01:36 schestowitz-TR; single payer
01:36 schestowitz-TR; crime levels here and the NATURE of crime is very different here
01:36 schestowitz-TR; people who are poor get council housing
01:36 DaemonFC; Yeah, they just pull a knife on you and take your wallet there.

01:37 DaemonFC; Much better if you get stabbed to death.

01:40 DaemonFC; Like, they put this crap in their body, then they bleed like a stuck pig, and then they go to the ER and don't pay their bill.
01:41 DaemonFC; Most of them could have had Medicaid, but they don't even sign up for it.
01:44 DaemonFC; The whole inflation thing is a ruse. The Democrats want to meet the climate change "goals" by taking it all out on people who already barely have anything.
01:44 DaemonFC; If they steal all of their money, they can't buy as much.
01:48 DaemonFC; If they give more money to the rich, it can just sit there on a balance book with them playing the "I won Capitalism." game.
01:50 schestowitz-TR; back with you in a bit

21:10 TR News; Turns out #linspire is so desperate to deflect criticism (for #freespire also) that it has become a purely ad hominem smear campaign of false equivalences against people, not messages or substance. This means they've lost the argument.
21:24 TR News; It's difficult to look at #twitter without realising that each year it becomes less relevant than the previous year. Shareholders sued and won; Twitter is faking it, trying to come across as a lot more important than it really is. People ought to get back to blogging.
21:25 TR News; #phoronix is boosting #microsoft crap again. This is how site perish and die...
21:27 TR News; Either #phoronix does not understand its audience or it wishes to change its audience... to one that does not exist or barely exists.
21:30 TR News; #techrights to start a 3-part series about #slovenia tonight. I hope my longtime online friend @jrepin (since Digg days!!) can help spread the word.

21:36 schestowitz; Regardless of what he says on human rights, women's rights and so on... bear in mind that since 1997 the man has relentlessly attacked the Free software movement to advance his own status inside Microsoft, where he now works.
21:36 schestowitz; He became a millionaire at the expense of the many he betrayed.
