This was interesting. I know two of the small communist sites I use are hosted on these services so it’s good to know how stable the ground is.

wow the /c/greentext community has posts that remind you of 4chan

Maybe I can grift a nice bounty developing AR glasses which patch out all the brands on clothes and places in real-time.
For me, it was the palmy beach.
And I’ll have you know that I’m still under 30 and do regular back extension exercises!
Stop doing physics! Motion was not meant to be analysed.
convert that speed from nautical miles to miles please
let me calculate the snap, crackle and pop of that missile
Statements dreamed up by the utterly insane.
It’s a reference to the original meme. The entire image is tongue-in-cheek.
I didn’t. Even when I lived an hour away from my job, it was about as fast by train as driving, and I could spend that time productively or relaxing instead of concentrating on.
If it takes twice as long without a car, that’s a problem that should be solved!
I’ve done that. You just bring something appropriate to carry it in.
Although now that I live closer to a smaller grocer, I just walk twice.
pls no more punchlines in the title!
Honestly, trying to find a definitive ‘in the right’ of any large-scale conflict is tough, almost moot. Especially since moral values like ‘right’ and ‘wrong’ are subjective, and that small groups of powerful people may not represent a whole. Complex reality doesn’t fall neatly into these ideals of right and wrong.
It’s very narrow-scope to frame this conflict as just about one attack at a music concert, and furthermore to think that a decades-long invasion, colonization and blockade shouldn’t be compared to other acts of colonialism.
Also, please read the community rules before posting, there are only two of them.
@nutomic@lemmy.ml It might be a good idea to default the Communities page to All instead of Local, to help push users into discovering other instances and promote them.
Reddit is a private company founded in 2005, valued at $1.8 billion dollars and employing around 350 people. Lemmy was founded two years ago and is run with relatuvely little funding (I would say approximately two paid employees and a dozen or so volunteers, distributed around different instances). That’s not comparable. At all.
Most people aren’t banned from reddit. Your personal experience is rare. If someone isn’t banned from the biggest platform, they need a motivation to leave. Why would they leave? I know why YOU would leave, but why would THEY leave?
Most people coming here, not all but most, are doing it because they were banned from reddit. As a result, they just try to recreate reddit here, instead of making something better, a better culture or a higher quality of community. Lemmy is treated by the majority as a ‘free speech reddit’ and nothing more.
Strong political bias in the popular communities may be distasteful to the majority of people who would use a reddit-like site, who tend to be pro-capitalist liberals.
A group calling themselves anti-fascist generally should shoot a group that is neo-nazi, yes.
Strawberries seem pretty popular and available, but I’d have to say:
tomatoes
Thanks for linking that post, that’s the evidence I wanted for them being a far-right instance.
Can you tell us where the instance is fascist and doesn’t merely contain fascists and bigots? For one, their sidebar rules contradict fascism. [note: TheAnonymouseJoker gave convincing evidence, see link in reply]
They’re both shitty, but they will behave differently so it’s important to distinguish if you want to make these claims.
why would they federate
To grow in numbers, to spread ideas, free advertising, to take advantage of non-political communities their users might want to visit, all kinds of reasons. Did you know wolfballs and lemmy.ml federated for a long time? Sure, neither is fascist but it’s an example of highly-conflicting communities federating properly.
Turkey is killing Kurdish separatists with (according to Turkey’s president) Iraq’s consent. It’s literally not an invasion against Iraq. You could claim it’s an invasion against the Kurdish insurgency, maybe.
Your post sounds like a knee-jerk reaction that doesn’t attempt to understand the situation. I prefer the separatists over Turkey but come one, this is just a silly reply.
It’s less a dogwhistle and more just explicit symbolism, just substituting the swastika so that it’s not a swastika.
