It's cute you think fascists care about borders, and that the US doesn't have a history of persecuting foreign political opposition.

What are you, 12?

Nobody:

Capitalism: "tune into the only freedom fighters on Earth standing up to the corporate elites — mr fascist billionaire and mr fascist meathead millionaire — only via your EvilCorp ShillBox subscription"

The problem is that conservatism/neoliberalism has spent the last 50+ years promoting anti-intellectualism and actively destroying the education system, because an idiot consumer is easier to manipulate and less of a threat to your profitability... now we have systemic stupidity.

They never were. Letting the fox run the hen house will always fail. Once you realize all of the UN and analogous environmental orgs/events (IPCC, COP, etc) are politically/corporate managed, and do not align with the scientific consensus, you realize they only exist to greenwash and legitimize for-profit interests, and inaction.

It's quite telling that the Israeli protesters who stormed domestic IDF bases in defense of an officer accused of using rape as torture (aka war crimes) were not even arrested or charged as terrorists in Israel... yet "direct action" against military contractors abroad — involving apparently no violence or intimidation — IS classified as terrorism.

Trump will designate Reporters Without Borders a terrorist org, and terrorize their reporters using the state.

I was gonna say this Bosnian war film I caught on the public broadcaster 2 decades ago, but it apparently won a fuckin oscar, so I now recommend you watch Birdemic instead.

Man. Screamers was a regular on 10 VHS for $10 holidays. Must've watched Soldier 5 or 6 times on late 90's cable. Watched it not long ago too. Still not great, but I still can't look away.

We're still months away from Turd-day. He will go through at least 17 cronies within the first 1 year.

There's ever so many things to not look forward to!

Apparently they just become fascist

It's okay. We're only running out of time. ALL of us — ALWAYS — hurtling through space at ~30km/s around a fireball that's burned for billions of years, on a spaceship that materialized out of the remanence of exploding fireballs, which materialized out of nothingness.

Believe it or not. A banger shower thought was an inevitability.

We're basically the universe waking up to itself after 13 billion years of a chaos bender and going "What the fuck!?! I'm on a fucking rock? In the middle of fucking nowhere? ... I can't believe I've done this to myself!

Have you tried being in my own imagination land?

 

First comment removed from asklemmy thread about who's good/bad re Israel/Palestine is apparently too nuanced and anti-extremist for snowflake dessalines. Ya gotta fuel the hate and extremism if ya wanna comment round tankie parts...

The linux ban was regarding a comment (pretty sure the OG comment was different) about Russian maintainers being removed from the linux project. Obviously you can't call out capitalist Putin's authoritarian dictatorship in the communist sub, because ML mods are pro-authoritarian and pro-dictatorship; not anti-capitalist... At this point I'm convinced most "tankies" are just PsyOps operatives.

 

I can't figure out how to view my own reply comment anymore, but a /Ukraine user commented this insanity and I called them out — that cornering a sociopathic nuclear armed dictator is recklessly stupid, and exactly what will trigger a nuclear war — and got massively downvoted for "enabling Russia". 90% of the user base agreed with "conquering" Russia, and thought previous mini incursions across the border are equivalent; proving that nukes are a forever bluff.

The best part? After inspecting several of the mods and users comment histories I realized all seem to have nothing to do with Ukraine whatsoever, and appear to be young pro-war machine North American jarheads (or keyboard warrior wannabes), who sub to or mod numerous other military related communities.

 

Thus, conservatism and neoliberalism are, in reality, the radical agenda...

 

Broke timestamps. Everywhere. New replies will show "10 hrs" while the original comment will show "18 mins".

When viewing posts I see tons of phantom comments that seemingly have nothing to do with the post or are replying to something when they appear at the top level. Navigating to the post in a web browser shows dozens more comments (not from users I've blocked or anything).

Formatting of content across posts and comments doesn't match what the site does when I view it in the browser.

Thanks to the Memmy dev and any contributors, but broken software is broken software.

So, what's the best alternative these days?
