I think those people consider the Lemmy federation to be their playground, and they are being xenophobic about others, but since there is not supposed to be xenophobia in their ideology, they call it colonialism instead.
I try to contribute to things getting better, sometimes through polite rational skepticism.
Disagreeing with your comment ≠ supporting the opposite side, I support rationality.
Let’s discuss to refine the arguments that make things better sustainably.
Always happy to question our beliefs.

He says that because the creators are tankies and so were the first communities built around them like .ml administrated by the creators. Last year’s Redditors migration after the API change moved the political center more towards social democracy and the people center towards .world.
I’m part of these people, I think most of them are social democrat and don’t have any illusion about supposedly socialist countries.
Yes, they are a minority since .world became the biggest player, but they are still very visible if you mention those subjects and countries, they are going to pop up.
I agree, but I believe they don’t like being called like that and they think they are defending socialism.
Proteins with 0 effort, evolutionary win.
About 50, it seems to stabilize from there.
No, he’s not. He’s talking about supposedly-socialist people in the USA who idealize vaguely socialism related countries like Russia or China, and think they would have a better life in these countries.
Save your mental health, just block them once they are clearly identified, it’s not worth the effort at all.
There’s also the part that is into crushing with a tank people who don’t hate the USA more than anything in the universe.
It worked for the people of this time, yes.
It worked in high growth economy 50-70’, and boomers are stuck there.
I am confused, every statistic of .world seems bigger. What am I missing?
a diluted version of communism,
Is there still something communist in their economy? Are the people working 9 am to 9 pm 6 days a week, owning their means of production?
I’m not from .world and also complain about it sometimes. In my opinion, it’s a legitimate reason that makes Lemmy less attractive, as a consequence, you have to set up blockers to keep your sanity which is a hassle for the average user.
Isn’t it lemmy.world?
Her argument is that “Parliamentary assistants do not work for the Parliament. They are political assistants to elected officials, political by definition”, so basically she says they can do whatever they want with the EU Parliament money if it is the decision of an elected person, which is clearly not the rules for this fund and she knows it.
To make it juicer, they found records of her party members explicitly estimating that they should not do that because it is embezzlement.
For context, this comes from a time when her party wanted Frexit similarly to the Brexit party in the UK, which the same irrational arguments. So misusing EU money was completely aligned with their idea to damage the relation. Turns out, Frexit was very unpopular even within right wing French people, so they pivoted to some kind of small EU now.
I think I heard about it before, but instead of having to remember that, I could just ask an uncensored LLM.
No, but I think it could make the knowledge more easily available which increases the risk that it may happen.
Still a public safety issue.
Some supermarket brands are made by the same factories as the original ones, the difference is mostly marketing.
By the way, this is similar to Amazon analyzing the most profitable products from their partner merchants and creating their own “basic” version to take the market. But people don’t seem as scandalized when supermarket do it.
