nexguy@lemmy.worldto Mildly Infuriating@lemmy.world•Public transit in Toronto, Canada 🇨🇦 vs Chengdu, China 🇨🇳 English1·3 days ago$6 now. What about 15 years ago? Rent in the city is $181/mo? That would be for a 1 bedroom outside the city. Double that for room for a family and you might be able to just get by paycheck to paycheck. While living in a polluted city(another money saving tactic)
Edit: I believe migrant workers played a large role in building this. Where did they live? Likely in employer provided housing. Yes. Proper sanitation? Likely no. Imagine the outcry using this cheap technique to build in Toronto.

It wouldn’t matter if Stalin had 80% of the world’s prison population… the meme is meant to shock you that the USA could even be in the same order of magnitude by having nearly a quarter of the world’s prison population in modern times while having less than 5% of the world’s total population. That seems stalinesque.
Not voting Harris was voting to strip trans rights, destroy jobs with tarrifs, entrench fascist federal judges for a generation, major intensification in climate change ,help the genocide in Ukraine, greatly help the genocide in Gaza.
I put the blame squarely on the non voter.
Edit: vote Harris in THEN protest for better changes.

nexguy@lemmy.worldto Technology@lemmy.world•The 16‑kilobyte curtain. How Russia’s new data‑capping censorship is throttling CloudflareEnglish1·1 month agoI do not believe they limit it themselves, they just follow setting set by others. You can choose to block all traffic from certain counties of you want. Or not.
Liberal voters liked Biden so much the emulated him by doing nothing to stop Trump.
Should have been the protesting non-voter.
