Diva (she/her)

Just based off how comfortable Americans are, no.

If you’re planning on leaving I won’t miss you passive aggressively using only neutral pronouns for me or calling me insane.

You can totally have centrist extremists

So accusing left wingers of being right wing is okay as far as you’re concerned if it’s about an election

Pointing out that from a left wing perspective, Biden and the Democrats are doing bad things and their supporters are right wing: wrong, not descriptive, belongs in a tankie shit hole.

K

Being full of anticommunists who call anyone left of Biden a tankie makes an instance right wing in my eyes at least

I wouldn’t want anyone going down an extremist pipeline on either side of the political spectrum.

This isn’t a binary thing, there’s plenty of centrist extremists and echo chambers for them

I agree with you that this conflict needs a resolution, it’s possible lemmy.ml has done some things wrong, that’s why I support a two state solution that guarantees lemmy.mls security.

Oh you’re the one with the hyperfixation on hexbear.

As you were officer. 🫡

everyone who politically disagrees with me is either not human or a “useful idiot”

Hopefully some day we can find the root of this toxic division haunting lemmy 🙏

Sure, it was toxic in other ways, but Lemmy in 2024 is basically 2004 Slashdot - just replace Bush with Trump

Lmao I was there, can confirm

The bickering about software platforms is unchanged and people will jump down your throat for voicing an independent thought.

I remember liberals getting just as mad for naysaying Kerry as they do Biden now.

It remains unclear if there are any other replenishment ships like it immediately available in the Mideast. An AP survey of publicly released military images of similar replenishment ships run by the U.S. Navy’s Military Sealift Command showed none in the Mideast in recent months. The command declined to comment.

🤔

The problem is that, with a lot of causes like feminism, it’s kind of mushy. It isn’t straightforward, it is loud, it is a winding path. … I just feel like just simply supporting the rights of women isn’t enough with it and that there’s something more.

This is why intersections are important, there are many interconnected struggles under capitalism which all run into common opposition along misogynistic/classist/racist lines and often with numerous overlaps.

Having an approach which does not include the systemic forces at play from more angles than just one, can lead you to blind spots which cause friction with other people.

I don’t think going out of my way to stand somewhere waving a sign for hours is what I think a good way to spend time with. I believe we should protest smarter by fighting with facts and being more focused than just allowing intrusive and irrelevant directives take hold of certain causes.

Demonstrations are only useful if they’re actually demonstrating something. If there’s nothing actually threatening why should anyone take your demonstration seriously? This doesn’t mean you need to be actually getting people in danger, but shit like stopping traffic and being disruptive makes a point where holding signs does not.

I’d set it up as a death match where they are all dropped into different parts of an island and have to survive with what they can find

Sounds like you’re the one with the cult-like devotion, but sure whatever you say officer

They clearly revel in “dunking on libs” by chain downvoting and harassing people when they say things that the hexbear hive mind disagrees with. And yet always claim innocence when their obvious brigading is called out, as you are currently doing.

They don’t even have down votes turned on, unless you’re saying that their users are going out of their way to make alt accounts specifically to downvote.

This looks like projection as you are the one who seems to think that down votes are some shield against wrong think and they don’t seem to care about them at all.

Show up in a ripped shirt with a mustard stain on it looking dazed and slightly disinterested, like you already visited 4-5 houses that day.

I really am getting tired of having to walk on eggshells around liberals about this extremely obvious issue.

Yet I will be talking to a lib and they will be like “but at least it’s killing a lot of Russians right?” 🫠

Idk but I’m ready to fold space with my mind

takes massive dab

Have you considered that world history prior to 1600 is broadly fabricated, the Peloponnesian war actually happened in ~AD1000 between medieval city states, based on the timing of an eclipse triad described by Thucydides. Jesus Christ was actually Andronikos Komnenos (AD1152), he was born in Crimea and publicly beaten and crucified near Constantinople.

google Morozov

Exhales

I couldn’t be bothered to figure out how to watch it, did anything happen?

You made a huge wall of text with some claims not borne out by your links, did you even fully read what you were citing or did you skim looking for things to confirm your argument?

From you:

Took a poll on which other instances to deferate from, then promptly ignored the results that said no and defederated from them anyway:-P lemm.ee for instance had 41 votes to keep it and only 4 for it to go, but despite the additional order of magnitude and some passionate responses defending the former (e.g. “But man we should at least stay federated with lemm.ee, that instance’s admin has been very reasonable and it hasn’t caused much trouble at all; nothing that banning any troublemakers can’t fix.”), they defederated from it anyway. An

From the hexbear discussion

However, as expressed by users belonging to marginalized groups, comments from .ee users are often lib-shit and in some cases outright hostile. While many on hexbear love dunking on these lost libs the duty to protect marginalized users is much more important

Again quoting you:

at sh.itjust.works, where they thought long & hard about it (mind you this is an EXTREMELY permissive server, chock-full of reasonable-minded people,

The hexbear thread expressed the same rationale to block “shits fulla chuds” the fact that you characterize them as reasonable-minded people speaks volumes about you personally.

Just checking in with how someone from a marginalized community felt about this situation: https://hexbear.net/post/497935

Is posting a meme to "own the liberals" worth your comrades getting more trauma from bigots harassing them?

No its not.

you've had your laugh, but it should end

Ban them all, SJW, lemm.ee, lemmy, the programmer nazi edglords. Keep Lemmygrad.

I was ready to take you seriously but if you’re misrepresenting your very first points that’s a lot harder. You’ve been doing more than that, you’ve been inverting the actual history and in the process ommitted the actual options of marginalized people to suit your narrative.

If you enjoy LGBTQIA+ content, it is everywhere, e.g. the variety of blahaj’s that exist - the most popular of which is https://lemmy.blahaj.zone/, with the highest number of users (and to reveal my own bias, I’ve never seen anything written from their admin, Ada, that I have not thoroughly enjoyed reading

Hexbear is majority non-cis, and its weekly trans megatheads are extremely active. I already looked into this, they have done several polls, and have chatted with a number of them since I started moderating /c/transgender

But I advise to steer well clear of bigots. Except of course to learn about the situation - definitely check it out, and then you’ll know.

Are you trying to imply that they’re bigots now? On what basis? If anything you’ve said enough to make me suspect you more than anyone else.

Edit: like clockwork, I check the mod log and you posted this embarrassing comment 8 months ago and got mocked roundly for it. I can see why you’re still holding a grudge now.

lol:
