one kind of dumbass will also be another kind of dumbass. worth knowing, but not especially surprising

if MODERATORS are landed gentry, what the fuck does that make rich bastards like him?

there are things you can do to start building a better world today, but it never feels like enough

yeah, but if all the kids starve to death at least the drag queens can’t groom them (by existing and sometimes reading stories aloud)

i’ve read marx. at precisely no point does he say anything justifying the various atrocities state capitalist countries have committed. i think he’s wrong about some stuff, but even if you accept that his word is gospel, tankies are still just people who took leftist principles as an excuse for the imposing the kind of brutal authoritarianism that leftists are supposed to be against.

But wait. I have a NSFW subreddit, and reddit doesn’t allow you to upload pictures directly to reddit if you’re on an NSFW subreddit. Right? So how can it be the primary host?

If not, huge missed opportunity.

The burden of proof nevertheless lies with you.

I’d request you cite your sources. I might even click on them.

How many people actually click on the cited sources on reddit and Twitter?

I’d love to help you figure this out, but your second link takes me to a 502 error.

Anyway, my guess is that one instance you’re on federates with certain instances, and one does not. So if you’re on instance A and B, A federates with C, but B does not, so from B you won’t see comments from C. But I admittedly don’t know what the differences are between the comment sections you’re seeing, so I could be completely wrong.

How many people who are horrified by this get their news through reddit or Twitter? Getting news via social media isn’t weird.

Is anyone surprised?

Not a subscriber yet, but I might become one after I finish Fantasy High.

Tankies are just right-wingers who simp for different countries.

Caring about humanity is why I care about politics, though. Politics is the vehicle through which humanity’s fate is decided. If you don’t participate in it, you allow people who do to run roughshod over you. Politics decides whether your country goes to war or not, whether people die in poverty or not, whether the climate apocalypse kills us all or not.

Note that by politics I do not necessarily mean electoralism. Voting is a stopgap measure at best. But there’s much more to politics than voting and elections.

As someone who is far, far left, I just want to say that Lemmygrad doesn’t represent us all. The libertarian left is very different.
