Believe it or not, there’s nothing saying a communist country needs to be a one party dictatorship. It would be perfectly achievable though democracy if the majority of the population actually wanted to take collective responsibility for the country and wanted people to be treated fairly. The reason communist dictatorships fail is because they are dictatorships, not because they are communist.

Lemmy.ml and hexbear are not marxist. They are fascists cosplaying as soviet communists. Many people don’t make that distinction though.

What could you possibly be learning on Chinese spyware that isn’t better leared from … Pretty much anywhere?

Different kind of idiot. Kids are idiots because of massive egos and no life experience think if they got the idf and Hamas to share a joint it would end decades of violence etc.

Old people are stupid because they think age makes them an expert, and they’re unwilling to listen. Even now my mother will argue with me about the subject I have a master’s in.

I don’t fucking know. But I know what I was like at 16. I was an idiot and so were all of my classmates.

| For the life of me, I cannot fathom what a 30+ year old man could see in a 16/17 year old girl

Himself, likely.

But, I’ll hastily agree with you, 16 year olds are dumb as fuck and even more boring. I’m just not that into Roblox and TikTok.

Actually he’s everyone’s fucking problem now.

Is it normal for people to set up surveillance cameras in their own home? Are break-ins that common? I just assume no-one will bother with my shitty flat.

Dayzie obviously

Ummm… Follow the money?

Well if you took a page out of France’s playbook it wouldn’t necessarily get to this point. At the slightest suggestion that they might have to work a bit extra or pay a bit more, they’re out burning cars and building guillotines. As it should be.

Edit: also educating people on safe firearms use as a condition of ownership of a firearm actually goes a long way to reducing the deaths. Also guns aren’t the only way of getting rid of people. Just ask the IRA.

Ok another thing people haven’t really touched on is government restrictions on dangerous shit generally. I’m not just talking about guns, but also cars. When I was in the states I saw so many car accidents and bits of car on the road. That doesn’t need to happen. It turns out that if you have proper driving tests and mandatory classes, people don’t crash as much. Same with guns though. Owning a gun is fine if you learn how to properly use and store it.

Norwegians reeeeealy need a reality check.

I’m sure if you took a second to think about possible solutions to this problem you’d find a way of making the necessary amendments to your country.

Yeah kids reciting the pledge of allegiance is honestly psychotic.

Despite his severe back problems, Luigi mangione is the only one of you who has a backbone.

Lol, harsh!

I live in Norway. Trust me, your roads are fine.

Yeah but Belgium is the home of the greatest entertainer of all time Eddy mother fucking Wally!
