Yep, it’s Johnny Sins

Welp, I just played Stardew Valley again 😁

I can’t deny there were some cases where the authorities have exaggerated. Especially recently. But you know where these people are actually coming from.

You maybe know that it’s not these cases they’re referring to when they talk about the lack of free speech.

Ah, of course it’s about the serious violations on free speech in *checks notes* the brutal dictatorships of Britain and Germany. The dictatorship of common sense dictating you how not to be an asshole.

That’s so terrible!

I am sorry for what happened but I hope you’re well aware that Trump only solved this conflict by threatening to join Israel in the killings. Not sure if that aligns with you.

I hope no more violence will occur in the region for the foreseable future.

Take care!

Out of curiosity, I just checked that cesspool that calls itself a Lemmy server after 1000 years of not giving a fuck (I mean, I likely checked it seldomly lately as well, but not as thoroughly as going through multiple pages and posts). Here’s what I found:

• Typical commie propaganda (I’m not going to go into details)
• So much US-centrism. Of course, there was some user from Poland (some will know who am I talking about) that admitted somewhere that in Poland there are multiple parties, but, just like for any serious tankie, those parties cannot be anything else than fascist. So no other party than the all mighty “single pluralistic” Communist Party (whatever that shit even means) like there somehow is in China is good. All of them are fascist.
• Being from the US, you’d think they treat the current situation in their country in a mature way, pointing out the actual fascist from the White House - while this happens in, like, a bunch of their posts, mostly, if you think this way, you’re DEAD WRONG. They spend most of their energy pointing out how bLuE aNd ReD aRe ThE sAmE and how oBaMa aLsO dId X sHiT tHaT tRuMp DiD aNd YoU tHe LiBs WeRe OkAy WiTh ThAt (oh, and not to mention the meme about how the No Kings protests are actually a CIA psyop or some shit. Yeah, if you go out and protest for a cause is not because you’re fed up with all that shit you see in your daily life, it’s because the intelligence told you so).
• When they actually do speak about what’s going on, they point out how imperialistic the US of A is and always was. Somehow, China and Russia were never imperialistic. But USA is the alpha and omega of imperialism (okay, they probably also bring up the former imperialistic powers of UK and/or France in other threads, but I didn’t check them, and it’s late here - let’s just assume there is something about this as tankie propaganda also likes to bring this up). Yeah, what happens now with the US is borderline imperialism (threatening Canada and Greenland and Panama with invasion). But stretching it so far and thin like they do is just crazy.
• They laugh at you when you bring them sources to support your claim - reputable sources. But all they bring to support their own claims are recycling memes that they thought they’re funny a few days ago - and somehow Dessalines points you to his blog/website/whatever - not even trying to bring up their own propaganda mouthpieces into discussion. Yeah, bro, I’ll trust you (I’ll probably even make a meme about it these days if I care enough about it).
• Their entire meme community is tankie propaganda. I tried being sympathetic to them and tried to view the memes from their own perspective, but I couldn’t bring more than a smug on my face. Oh well, maybe these crack them up. Good for them, I guess.

In conclusion: it’s fucking late. I spent some precious time doing nothing and learning nothing from their bullshit (and also typing this entire thing). I would like Dessalines to point me out on his website thingy how can I get my wasted time back. Thank you.

This one cracked me up, that’s for sure. And I’m not even in Russia.

That makes sense. Thanks!

Even the middle click?

*middle click and right click link>open in a new tab*: are we a joke to you?!?

If only there was something like RES for Lemmy/the Fediverse…

It had this exact functionality. Add a label to a user, and it will be displayed everywhere on the website for you to know…

Yeah, same. I still think humanity is at an all time low

Well, I can flex on the fact that we’re not part of Russia yet :)

(jk)

I’m not German, I am Romanian. Yes, there appears to be one batch of shipment to Israel, but that’s about it (at least so far).

Our defense industry lies almost dead and buried, so there’s nothing to produce to begin with. And that is with another 3-year-old war at our borders.

What you could say about us is that we still keep our relationship with Elbit (the company that owns the factories the hardware was sent from) but that’s about all the military relationship we have with that genocidal state.

And no, we did not make billions out of this (maybe Elbit did). Our current government struggles to reduce the fiscal deficit by increasing taxes, cutting spending where it’s needed the most (like from education and culture), while keeping privileges for judges and other magistrates who have the ability to retire at 47 years old with pensions 10 times higher than the one of the average folk. That’s pretty much where the billions are coming from, rn. So if there is any billion that might have come to my country since Israel invaded Gaza, I personally didn’t feel the difference. Quite the contrary, I finish the month with less money than before this year.

I hope that makes the picture more clear.

You know better :)

Everyone let the genocide happen. We simply had more pressing issues in our proximity.

We are one of the country that recognizes Palestine though. And our communist dictator maintained good relations with both Israel and the Palestinian Authority. They could have easily said that we’re no longer recognizing Palestine and be done with it.

That’s not what centrism means, but yeah, I’m not happy about that. The corrupt political class of ours has all the means to make billions anyway from mismanaging our taxes, so sending weapons or not does little in this regard.

I mean, why not turn it off when you’re done with it?
