The reason I moved to lemmy.cafe instance is because it’s defederated from those tankie instances. I can’t even see their comments anywhere.

I’m Czech and I can understand written polish only if I read it aloud.

I agree, the police has a lot of issues and there’s definitely a need for changes. But still, saying ACAB is just hateful extremism and I’m shocked that some people in this thread act like every single cop is a villain who only wants to beat minorities.

They signed up to fight crime and protect people. And that’s what they are doing. There are definitely bastards in the police, but this logic is insanely dumb. Are kids who dream about being cops and saving people bastards?

It says: It’s not extremism to be normal.

Yes they are.

Just a few days ago in my country cops arrested several rich bastards for corruption. They took the Mayor of a big city, member of currently most supported (and populist) political party, in handcuffs. At least those I know believe they are making world better and safer, and I think that by catching criminals they are. That’s their actual job, and that’s what they do. And I’m glad that if I got robbed, I can call those “bad people” and they will try to find whoever robbed me. And they are not “state sanctioned user of violence”. If a cop shoots a person here, they are heavily investigated, even if the person was a criminal.

I know several cops and they are all great people. I live in Europe though, and hating all cops isn’t luckily considered normal here.

Cool but please crop it next time, it’s annoying on mobile.

If you migrate, people will automatically follow you on the new account, I’ve done it cca month ago.

Boring utopia for Venezuelans

I kinda regret being defederated from Lemmy tankies, I’m curious how are they going to defend this.

Fuck Russia

That’s the best part: they don’t!

But you moved first, didn’t you?

Hey, USA isn’t the only capitalist country in the world!

This is a great post for people in public transport to see on your screen

Fair enough. As for leaving Instagram, I can assure you I would love to. But I unfortunately, I have to choose between privacy and social life. And will rather be spied on than miss out camping with my classmates just because I wasn’t in the Insta chat group where they discussed it. And you might have guessed from me being a Lemmy user that I’m not the popular guy, so nobody will stop using Instagram because of me or text me everything they plan on there on Signal. Also if you think using TikTok is somehow fucking up Meta, I can tell you that you’re the only one getting fucked.

I don’t think any of these are good. I currently have to use instagram, because all my friends use it for chats and chat groups etc. I don’t use instagram for reels, so TikTok is not an alternative for me. And from what I have read about the TikTok app, it spies on you even more than instagram. Also the modded instgram versions usually have an option to block some of Meta’s analytics, and that’s one of the reasons I want to use them.

I’m the 1pm friend. But since yesterday I don’t feel that bad about it: https://appdot.net/@mdhughes/112847661796478542
