I don’t think anyone is arguing the US wasn’t responsible for the current state of affairs, but ok

NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO

I’m incredibly biased in saying this, but:

I’m pretty sure the barbarism won’t be coming from the Marxist side of society

I wonder if there are any Lemmy apps that’ll do this automatically

If the goal is total collapse, I don’t have much hope.

At the end of his term, (assuming he doesn’t worm his way into getting more than 2) the next administration is just going to pick up the pieces and do their best to keep the current elite in power. :/

Man, I miss Max Forrest’s skits

This is the “Christianity” y’all voted for. I hope you’re happy, because I’m fairly certain Jesus wouldn’t be.

“It’s going to make great television,”

I can’t say I’m shocked that these are his personal standards for running the most powerful country in the world in an international setting.

yet you think you own your community (you do not, no mods do)

Right.

Also “your community”? You’re literally the only one here claiming it’s my community.

And we’re already federated with .world. Always have been.

Point to one instance of me saying this. You’re making shit up.

Possibly. But they’re only marked as read, so if you’re not constantly hitting the “hide read” button you’ll still see the posts.

Plus, by default I’m pretty sure Lemmy feeds are sorted by Hot, so the more active threads will be the first one you see anyways.

Ctrl+F “tankie” and replace it with “authoritarianism apologist”, then. 🤷‍♀️ I can’t say your opinion means much to me if it boils down to a semantic argument.

Authoritarianism is antithetical to everything the left stands for, at least in America (especially under Trump’s reign). Being a communist isn’t enough for you to claim to be on my side.

The Summit app has a setting to automatically mark duplicate posts as read, but I can’t vouch for how well it works since I don’t use it much.

Point being, though, it’s definitely doable! At least on the client side.

196 mods are a bunch of shitlibs

I’m literally a trans socialist, and 100% of the other mods are either gay or trans. We’re as left as left gets.

I’ll say it as many times as I have to: The move had nothing to do with politics. There’s a lot of value in Ada’s style of moderation, because cishet people have damn near the whole internet to serve as their “safe space” for the lack of a better term, so the value of having a dedicated queer instance is enormous. Her work means that communities like !queer_defense_front@lemmy.blahaj.zone already have the vast majority of the work done for them.

By and large, we are in agreement with Ada and her mod actions. (We don’t tolerate transphobes, racists, etc., and that didn’t change after the move). Where we disagree is things like Kolanaki getting banned for saying he wants to learn to be an ally but can’t ask about trans topics without getting negative replies. In a community like QDF it would make sense to remove the comment because it’s not the time or place for his input, but on 196 we feel like it’d be a lot more productive to teach him what he can do better to engage with us more effectively, rather than assume he’s incapable of doing so. He’s never said anything transphobic in either of the 196s I mod for, and I see no reason he shouldn’t be welcomed in the community.

And it’s worth noting that !196@lemmy.world is still free of transphobes/racists/tankies/etc., despite the panic.

I’ve been driving with the check engine light on for a year and a half 🫠

I’m pretty sure it’s just the coolant leak, tho. I keep having to refill it.

The Woke Police aren’t going to glitter your door down and trans you

Okay, but what will they do this for? Asking for a friend…

Jesus fucking christ.
