I’m growing convinced you’re a troll posing as an ML at this point.

This shit seems like a caricature designed to provoke leftist infighting and it’s getting more obvious

Who in sweet crystallized Christ fuck is telling you the US isn’t screwing the globe over???

Like, as a USian I know and hate what this country is doing and at least here I haven’t seen anyone really claim otherwise. Maybe in Zionist havens like major social media but you’re posting to a tiny choir here.

Uncritical simping for any government is certainly a choice

(To be clear, fuck the US govt also)

These sorts of issues are precisely why I didn’t move to Piefed.

Lemmy devs are…well, notorious. But as far as I can tell their opinions aren’t baked into the software the way PF’s seems to be.

Piefed feels too much like a Reddit clone with its moderation style and vote/“reputation” counting for my tastes. For the people who like it there, more power to them.

Even funnier when you tell them you hate liberals too and their brains short circuit

I had to look this one up. All things considered not too egregious tbf

I mean, that’s also pretty awesome that there’s decent regulations as part of it(at least nominally, I don’t live there so can’t say for certain), but it seems to be primarily a banking/lending thing similar to in the US which is what a lot of jingoistic fearmongering types either completely miss or purposely ignore.

It’s decidedly not a surveillance thing, which is the funny part.

Per Wikipedia:

The program first emerged in the early 2000s, inspired by the credit scoring systems in other countries.

It’s almost the same thing but a different name, and is nationalized to a state system instead of like 3 or 4 companies lmao

Right wingers fear the word “social” for some reason ig

Bruh what

Yeah no I’m gonna step in and fully agree with you on the statement of “psychopaths shouldn’t be allowed to enact destruction on civilians.”

IDF, USA (and all its three letter agencies), whatever authoritarian fuckbags murdered Iranian protestors, etc.

It’s all bad. If these genocidal people who choose to reject their humanity have an axe to grind, they should be forced to do so amongst themselves.

Hiding behind bombs and armies is bullshit. Make the “leaders” go face to face, with little more than a rusty machete and keep the rest of the world’s people out of it.

Probably because they’re loaded with everything-resistant diseases.

Dismember them and toss them into the deepest parts of the ocean though, for sure

It isn’t “fuck the [imperialist/authoritarian nation] government and its enforcers” for most people?

I love this little artist with my whole soul and refuse to be mean to them 💔

I’m dumb idk which word was changed

I loved the complement of this where How to Train Your Dragon (the animated one) depicted dragons as cats with wings.

The cruelty is part of the fun! Plus prison = free slave labor!

Thank you, and please do use it! Sharing is caring lol

My sibling in humanity, this is a meme community.

Taking things seriously isn’t the goal here.

I think it’s code for Christian nationalism? Basically all the sects of Christianity, especially varying Protestant subsects who insist that they’re totally different when it all boils down to the same basic claimed beliefs, and underlying beliefs of superiority over other human beings, to put it politely.

Propane Gothic

Oonga boonga brain says “survive” in majority circumstances ¯\(ツ)/¯

If you’re starving and have a melon in front of you, brain probably says find a way to open and eat it.

If you’re starving, have a melon, and a person with better survival skills nearby, you’re probably going to want to befriend them.

To try to determine/posit the individual moral “nature” of a social species is silly. (◕‿◕✿)
