inb4 denmark becomes socialist by 2020

Well the plan is August or September. Germany may be liberated about mid-December, the southern parts shortly after New Year 2014. Paris should be red by February, we will then attend KOMMUNIST KOLKON 2014 in Stockholm to discuss the strategy from there.

Free Brazil from kapitalismus!

Many people here care a lot about the environment it seems. Do you do anything in your everyday lives to live up to those ideas yourself?

Such as turning off the computer when you sleep/don't use it (and other things like lights and TV).

Sadly yes, I have the impression most people don't do it actually. Some people seem to use the excuse that their computer is slow at starting up. An understandable excuse in some cases like if you're away for a short while, but if you go to sleep, I think it's a really bad excuse.

i often run computations while i sleep so i can do productive stuff like minecraft during the day so my computer is on a lot of the time. i don't turn it off until windows update forces it, but it goes to sleep/standby when i sleep which doesn't use much power if any and only takes a few seconds to load from

I actually try to conserve energy. I always turn off the sink when my mother leaves it on, I turn off the faucet while brushing my teeth, and I turn off my computer when I go to sleep.

. . . There are people who don't turn off their computer when doing things like hanging out with friends or going shopping/sleeping. . .? :O

I actually do not go shopping or hang out with friends, but when I'm not using my pc, I turn off it =p

protip: i like first world living standards

I would like to have them too

[Bla]

Protip: The point of trying to minimize our impact on the environment by doing things like this is so that more people can actually have something like first world living standards and/or have first world living standards for a longer period of time.

Anyway if you use your com productively while sleeping I don't see any problem with it. I just see a problem with those who are too lazy to turn it off etc.

is sleeping it oaky

Something on imgur that detailed what groups of homophobes are doing in Russia.

This is really sad, and apparently because of this several bars in the UK and US are beginning to boycott vodka imported from Russia by no longer stocking it. The idea is to cause some kind of economic backlash.
Russia's pretty fucked in the head with all these laws coming in hgjhdg get your shit together

I'm against violence in most ways, save some ppl that indeed deserve it. Feel sorry for this fellah that has to endure this humiliation just because his lil tush is itching. WTF... so what? Alexander of Macedonia was gay, Cicero, the orator mega master of Rome was gay, and so many others. This is crappy humans using sexuality to justify their hateful and controlling desires.

Ok aside from this... this whole Russian bashing trend is purely politics. Is the western trying to undermine the not so compliant russian counterparts and trying to mechanically change the populace view of the Russian nation. Fifteen yrs or so ago, when russia was in the hands of a boze filled puppet russia was just lovely, now that the hard liners took over and stopped the empire from sacking the country, russia is back to be just horrific, monstrous and dishonest.

Propaganda? YES! Then.. NO THANK YOU! Else.. fck off with manipulative propaganda !

Nail it! Right on! I have many socialite customers. I hate them all. Woman that are mega futile. They love to brag about their minuscule contributions to the "green".

I love to some day say to one of them: Hey lady, having 7 cars, 5 houses of 10 bedroom each, IS NO FCK GREEN. Buying into Mr. Gore's carbon credits DOES NOT HELP! It's a scam!

Want to help the green? Stop your non-sense buying spree, stop washing your dog with hot water, don't swap the pool's water every 30 days, biatch!

Ppl are so lost...

You just distanced yourself from the antigay happenings in there - do you want those attitudes to change or not? Is it a legitimate excuse if they happened to be a part of a "Russian national identity/culture" for some?

With that said I do think the west is being very stupid on some points, especially about Snowden, and it is sometimes very embarrassing to see the west trying to defend LGBT rights. Some of what the west does is terrible and sadly this makes some people distance themselves to LGBT equality because the west sometimes likes to promote it.

But I don't like when people say "Russia is fucked up in the head" etc., it's too generalizing, everyone in there isn't like that.
