Here's your daily reminder that #Trump's labeling of his #Democratic opponents as "#fascists" is utter nonsense for many reasons, the most significant being that #fascism is an inherently #rightwing #ideology. Left-wingers, by definition, cannot be fascists. If Trump wasn't "the dumbest goddamned student" his professors ever taught in college, he might have known this basic, objective fact. Unfortunately, he's a moron who is literally making it up as he goes.

It wasn't a hint. He flat-out said that if #Republicans don't win in 2024, they will abandon #democracy and seek to seize power through political #violence. It was as clear a #threat to the #Constitution and our #democratic principles as you will ever hear from a member of the political class. If that doesn't scare you, take a moment to consider what #MikeHuckabee's ideal America would look like, and the #consequences of imposing that vision through violence.

I guess I'm moving off the old #homelab faster than I thought. So much for weekend plans. šæ
If anyone wants to offer advice, the setup is #democratic-csi #iscsi to #truenas (mostly xfs, a mistake I've corrected moving forward.)
The old cluster has decided to just ignore PVCs. The replacement cluster uses the same credentials (shh) but a different path and prefix and it is still working fine. I've tried restarting associated controllers/ds, even bounced the bad cluster and updated the NAS, which entailed bouncing both clusters.
Nothing in the logs, and there are no recent related updates. Both clusters are driven off largely shared/identical code, with minor furniture rearranging.

It's a given that #Democratic leaders want #Trump nominated because they think he'll be easy to beat. The question is how much behind-the-scenes work and dirty tricks they're doing to help him. Democrats have been caught doing this many times for Trumpist candidates to improve Dem candidates' chances, so it would be foolish to assume they won't put the country at risk to improve their own chances.
#Democratic leaders officially endorsed Rep. Ilhan Omarās (D-Minn.) reelection bid.
The news comes as deep-pocketed #AIPAC reportedly considers recruiting challenges to "squad" members this cycle.

The right keeps boosting #RFKjr. To be clear, all of his financial #support comes from #rightwing donors, and almost all of his popular support comes from rightwing #voters. It might seem odd that a proclaimed #Democratic #presidential #nominee derives all of his support from the other side of the spectrum, but not when you realize that his support is based entirely on the goal of hurting the current #president and presumptive Democratic nominee.

Is there anyone on the actual centre left (or lefter) of politics who seriously intends to vote for #RFKjr, or is that intent really just the preserve of total wing nuts, Laroucheites and whatever other assorted conspiracy types exist on the fringes of the #Democratic Party's registered supporters?
Finlands #Democratic #Socialism
Overall, Finlandās economic and government system is a type of social democracy, which combines parts of socialism and capitalism.
Overall, Finland is a very well-rounded country that has a lot going for it. After all, Finns are some of the happiest people in the world. Also, the people of their nation donāt have a history of slavery, warmongering, colonialism, and capitalism at any cost worldwide to overcome internally.
