You gotta start killing people dude. History shows that’s how you get your way.

Just look at how the reddit protest ended. Once threatened with losing their status as mods, they all caved.

Money and power are powerful motivators, and the mods work for free.

They’re authoritarian and they hate the west. Of course they’re appealing to communists.

Western commies idolising brutal authoritarian regimes is nothing new.

Sounds like they’ve successfully created a safe little echochamber. Wasn’t that the point?

Edit2: wow I never expected to wake up to so many awards, who’d knew my most updooted comment would be about this?

You are the only one who decides what gives your life meaning, and you decide what counts as “waste”. If your meaning is keeping up with people who have achieved big goals without working hard to achieve big goals of your own, you’ll probably end up envious and miserable. A lot of people like doing that so you’ve got plenty of company to wallow in your misery with if that’s what you want to do.

I’d suggest finding another form of meaning.

Vanlige dagligvarebutikker får selge øl, sider og annet opptil 4.75%. Men bare frem til kl 20 på ukedager, 18 på lørdager, og ikke på søndager for da må vi prise Herren. På søndager får vi bare kjøpe lettøl (opptil 2.75%) i dagligvarebutikker som er under 100m^2.

My go-to is an independent place near me that does excellent falafel. They do kebabs and fried chicken too, but that’s more so-so.

There’s no KFC here. A local chain “Fly Chicken” is similar, except better (IMO) but also more expensive. 13.50€ for 10pcs hot wings. Norway is expensive in general.

Hell yeah you can blame the people. They chose to use those platforms, and they choose to stay with them as they grow ever shittier. They’re the ones enabling platforms like reddit.

I agree in the event of a genocidal government, you throw them out, but obviously there needs to be a very high bar and a lot of safeguards to prevent partisan misuse. A losing Republican could claim a winning Democrat wants to conduct a genocide against unborn babies or something and the Jan6 insurrectionists would feel they were justified because of it.

What are the most damning pieces of evidence that Desantis will conduct a genocide if elected?

Should the 2016 election result have been overturned?

Did the 6th of January insurrectionists do the right thing, given they believed they were fighting against an authoritarian government? Or should they have accepted the result of the democratic process even though they disagreed with it?

Reading reddit and now kbin and lemmy about stories like this one makes it easy to see how socialist regimes so often turn to authoritarianism.

Followed. Don’t let me down!

/s is like explaining a joke you just made right away.

That’s just the start my dude. Once we disregard insignificant values like human rights and personal freedom, solving the issue of other people making problematic choices becomes trivial.

Imagine all the crime we would prevent if we just locked up anyone who earns less than say 50k euros.

I disagree it’s a media thing. It has been covered. It’s just not an unusual story so people don’t share it as much.

Now billionaires dying on a submarine will get shared plenty. People love those stories. So naturally, you’ll see more about it.

They’re doing their very best. Uselessness is a Reddit core value.

Idk. That always seemed like a classic redditor thing to do: giving money to redditcorp just to spite some stranger.

But then again, the admins are very petty and juvenile. Huffman especially, going so far as to ghost-edit user’ comments.

Marking the sub as nsfw affects their ad revenue, that’s is the only reason they care.

Doing stuff like posting pictures of suggestive veg or John Oliver seems like a way for mods to protest without driving as many users away.
