setting aside the fact that many DAWs and other music tools are available for free or very low prices, tools like this are only free for now because their costs are being subsidized by investors. once that capital dries up and they have to price their product profitably, nobody's gonna pay
What do we think about the assertion in this meme? I know, we think it's asinine, but I'm looking for specific arguments as to why it's asinine.

if this has to be a news story it should be that a qualified and competent doctor has been run out of a struggling NHS simply because she is transgender
The BBC reporting on Beth Upton’s current employment situation is definitely not in the public interest, and it is insane how much the British press freely get away with harassing her for the crime of simply living her life existing as a trans person in the UK.

The Epstein files have confirmed what the left have been pointing out for years: white supremacist and patriarchal hierarchies built on capitalist exploitation lead to gross inequality and monsters.

My BIL is a veteran who did two tours during Iraq & Afghanistan. He has PTSD. He is brown and lives in MSP. He gets telehealth therapy from the VA. And his job is allowing him to work from home so this two tour Navy vet with PTSD doesn't accidentally get shot by the Gestapo. Anyway.
Everything you’re hearing from the Trump administration is a lie. Today was one of the most active days in Northeast since the entire Operation Metro Surge began.
Nothing is changing on the ground in Minneapolis, no matter what headlines Trump and Homan try to create.

Yes. The folks who study election rumors and conspiracy theories are worried that a forced (and false) confession by Maduro (of 2020 election fraud) is a real possibility, and we’ve already seen some (wink, wink) foreshadowing of such a move.

I mean yes, you're completely right. That is, of course, why. A feedback loop, even.
One by one, Europeans mentioned in the Epstein files who still hold political office are beginning to resign or are being forced out of office.
Meanwhile, ruled by an administration almost entirely made up of Epstein associates, the US carries on as if nothing really happened.

Mamdani is proving what we all suspected. The Democrats didn’t want him to win because they knew he’d succeed and show how it’s not just possible to fix things- it’s actually pretty fucking easy.

a lot of the "against empathy" people frame it as a manipulative guilt tripping tactic practiced by women and believe a society run by men would have no place for it. it's all one thing
don't mean to blow anyone's mind with this shocking insight but the direct line between epstein, 4chan, gamergate, tech bro fascists etc is misogyny. prolific rapists, guys who believe women have inferior intelligence, and guys who hate women for rejecting them all have something big in common!
