I’ve noticed a ton of hexbear hate on lem.ee and dbzer0 accounts specifically. I duck my head into these instances and it does seem like they exist to shit-talk every other Lemmy instance. Then I peak into Hexbear and it’s Trans Rights, Video Games, and a top post celebrating the aniversary of the Sputnik launch.
So… I guess everything I’ve been told is true. Hexbear is a hateful group of pro-Russian bots and Marxism is the philosophy of the Damned.
What’s next, strip searches?
Hardly “what’s next”. This has been a fixation by conservatives since since the Obama Administration
Aimee Toms was washing her hands in the women’s bathroom at Walmart in Danbury Friday when a stranger approached her and said, “You’re disgusting!” and “You don’t belong here!”
After momentary confusion, she realized that the woman next to her thought — because of her pixie-style haircut and baseball cap — that she was transgender.

The hexbear uprising against the shitposters was the largest and most comprehensive online revolution in history, and led to almost totally-equal redistribution of karma among the terminally online
What is it about conservatives and hating public school?
quite a bit of lemmy is straight Marxism
“What’s the difference between Socialism and Marxism?”
“Well, Socialism is when you do the things I like but Marxism is when you do the things I don’t like.”
“What do you like?”
“Generating passive incomes on the labors of other people!”
Boo Marxism!

Biggest Military In The World is going to have more of this shit and be in more places where they can casually detonate an 18 kiloton bomb.
The “uniquely American” angle is more just the consequence of our size and the number of theaters of conflict we’re active in. I don’t imagine there’s many, if any, military forces on earth that could operate at this scale for the last 80 years.
The cool thing about Advanced Wars (and other build-a-unit games) is that the units are not, themselves, people. They are simply widgets that exist long enough to complete a mission and then stop existing.
The problem with COs IRL is that they’re not just summoning combatants from the Ether. They’re calling up other real humans to do incredibly dangerous shit, ostensibly for the betterment of “the nation” (but in practice we know better). And these people don’t just appear/disappear for the war. They continue to live with the nightmare they survived, or they leave behind family and friends who have their own blood feuds to settle with the enemy nation.
Why a country want to attack another country.
A lot of reasons. The most common is a territorial dispute that escalates over time.
The Israel invasion of Gaza is a response to the Al Asqa Flood, which was a response to Israeli encroachment into the Al Asqa Mosque which was a response to Palestinian protests over Israeli treatment of protesters during the 2018 March of Return which was a response to the blah blah blah which was a response to the Israeli Nakba of 1948. And all of that is a consequence of British colonialism in the Middle East, followed by a sloppy (arguably deliberately so) partisan of territories between Arabs and Jews at the end of WW2.
We could play the same game with Ukraine/Russia, which is an extension of a conflict dating back to WW1 and the collapse of the Ottoman Empire. Or we could go to China/Taiwan and talk about the number of times that the island changed hands from early antiquity to the end of the Chinese Civil War.
Stealing is not allowed so you can’t do that.
Telling this to the American First Nations people. Passing the word along to descendants of African and Latin American slaves.
The rules and process were far too loose so it consequently resulted in greater migration
For refugees? Is the solution to simply shoot people at the border so they have an equal but opposite incentive not to flee their own country?
Or are we talking about seasonal farm laborers who cross the border to participate in annual harvest? Should we burn down our fruit and vegetable fields and slaughter our livestock en mass so nobody has an economic incentive to take seasonal employment?
Obliterating a large chunk of landscape and killing countless people because its cheaper than doing hardware maintenance does sound like a US Military tier move.
Non-zero chance he’s going to be in Trump’s cabinet if Trump wins.
That’s an incredibly curious reading of the Cold War. I’m going to run off and assume you thought the world economy was doing great in the 1980s except in the Soviet Bloc?
Ublock does such a good job at blocking the old janky torrent sites, especially compared to the increasingly aggressive and intrusive new shit.

Given the concentration of AfD in the Eastern Block, you’d be inviting the region to pull a Catalonia and threaten to break away.
