I haven’t looked around in five years, but there was some interesting tech tinkering stuff on that diode instance. I’m assume people reuploading their own YouTube channels doesn’t count, but there were some quality ones there even back then.

im sorry Carl Marcos is too advanced.

they keep saying 'In one word; ’ and then writing a whole paragraph. and why do they keep making economics all political?

What part of communism relys on everyone being on the same page?

Hey OP, I just want to say from experience the reddit bashing usually dies down a bit after a quick spike of reddit refugees like we’re seeing now.

The earliest exoduses were socialist political communities banned from reddit (particularly /r/chapotraphouse who formed Hexbear, and /r/GenZedong who landed in Lemmygrad). Then, the most recent exodus is related to censorship related to Luigi Mangione, a US political issue, coinciding with a strong sudden re-emergence of global anti-American [government] sentiment due to diplomatic catastrophes with a range of former allies.

In fact, the founders cite reddit’s corporate nature and its pro-US-imperialist, racist stances as their motivation to create Lemmy: https://join-lemmy.org/docs/users/07-history-of-lemmy.html

So I’m not surprised at all that the default feed is covered in political topics, it’s always been a strong topic here and it’s just gotten stronger. But there’s probably enough activity now that one can filter it out and still have enough action to keep it fun.

Well there’s some lovely anti-imperialist coups going on in West Africa recently, here please read these 30 news articles about Burkino Fa

and start thinking about it as this small forum you like to use sometimes

Well, that’s how I felt three years ago, before two (relatively) huge exoduses.

Friend, you can say Luigi is a hero.

lemmy.world might have some rules against endorsing violence, but on most Lemmy instances, I can even tell you I hope all the healthcare CEOs are assassinated the same way. No corporate overlords to appease here!

Hopefully no-one:

Also, due to the power of wealth and mass media ownership, the most famous candidates (and therefore the only ones with a realistic chance of election) are consistently garbage.

It’s funny to me how often we (I’ve been guilty of this) look at satire and think how amazingly they predicted the future, when they were really just commenting on their present and maybe extrapolating a little bit.

I wonder if Wag the Dog nearly mirroring the Clinton–Lewinsky scandal one month later counts.

Looks like Finland was simply assigned .fi - https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/.fi

and I didn’t know about .ax for Åland - https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/.ax

Sure, but we must also remember not to pretend progressive liberals are enough, and make sure to engage in politics beyond the election cycle if we want any real power.

I gotta say, the English translator for that edition of the party manifesto keeps saying “In one word,” instead of “In a sentence,”

Although perhaps, given how compound words work in German, I wouldn’t be surprised if those sentences were just one word in the original copy.

Ah thanks.

What’s this? ah just remembered, /c/ YePowerTrippinBastards

True, although it looks like a pun so I wouldn’t assume it’s someone registering their local TLD.

• .ml is Mali, but I’m confident the .ml instances aren’t hosted in Mali.
• One can still register .su (Soviet Union TLD)

I can’t find their terms and conditions, but they do mention the GDPR plus their choice of 16+ instead of 18+ for age restriction makes me suspect it’s somewhere European.

I suspect it wouldn’t matter if you posted it once or posted it a hundred times. Lemmy is a rival service, and plenty of people have been banned for mentioning it before.

I believe the most an admin can do is block you from their own instance (e.g. lemmy.world banning you from lemmy.world communities), they don’t own your account on lemm.ee so they can’t ban your account from accessing the comms they don’t control, and lemm.ee has no reason to ban you.

Of course, it’s better to refer to them as Fascists – that’s the more accurate term that fully refers to both of those groups

Yes, you’re right, although on the other hand Nazism and classical fascism are also pretty different despite some surface level similarities. Even the fascist movements at the time struggled to figure out a unified position on racism/anti-semitism, corporatism and state structure.

If you want a few kicks, read what ᴉuᴉʅossnW thought of Hitler before he was pressured into saying nice things closer to WWII. My favorites are “silly little monkey” and “A mad little clown”. He was surely regretting their alliance long before he was hanged.

Don’t punch someone just cause they are wearing a Nazi outfit and think it is legal to do so… You may end up paying their medical bills & restitution.

It’s not legal, and I don’t know which judges are more lenient about this kind of thing. But if one can do it without being caught or attacked, like the two people who punched Richard Spenser, then it is an effective way to counter the rise of Nazism. Legality only matters if it’s enforceable.
