And recently, every Venezuelan protest is a CIA plot to overthrow Maduro.

I assume this is a parody. You can’t really be a communist who opposes rojavan independence right‽

You can if you're a tankie.

Humans play pretend we own the Earth, then get angry at each other while carving it up a little finer and finer, usually with blood or threats of blood.

The reality is, Earth owns us. Always has. We are subject to it.

We've been very, very naughty subjects.

Earth is in the process of handling us for that.

If you disagree with any of this, knock yourself out, the Earth doesn't care. All the corporate and governmental attempts at ignoring/bribing/negotiating with physics for decades as they forcefeed a willfully ignorant populace microplastics has been gallows hilarious though. Should have been a better species. 🤷‍♂️

(On the bright side, the capitalists, fascists, and greed apologists will all get what's coming to them, and the cultures that did live in homeostasis with the Earth, who were largely killed in the name of profit and conquest, may have been exterminated, but they will not have to experience the shame of watching the world end by their own greedy hands.)

When it comes to Taiwan, it's my understanding that the indigenous Taiwanese would like both the mainlanders who established Taiwan and the PRC to fuck off and let them have their island back.

But I do support the Taiwanese government's annexation of West China. Then they can move the capital to Beijing.

I'll admit that having an account on the .ml instance was a little jarring at first. I had another account on a youtubers instance he graciously opened, but I was getting connectivity issues constantly so chose .ml because of it's size and before knowing all the controversy.

My first negative experience was like !Perfide@reddthat.com, I commented in a post making a winnie/xi joke which was removed and it was the first and only mod action against me (that I know of) so I was a little miffed. For like a day I contemplated deleting this account to move to another instance, then I actually read my comment and looked at the post and realized I was the one being childish.

Since then, I've had actual conversations with people regardless if they align with my political views or not. I now focus on making sure my comments have substantive meaning (when it's about domestic/foreign politics) that actually engages the conversation or adds to the discussion. Regardless of it's content, it's been quite nice for all the hateful and joke comments to be less. A lot of cringelords on here don't want that though, it's like Reddit all over again in that aspect. If any of them actually had a substantive critique or could openly debate then they would quickly realize what comments are inappropriate and a mod might second guess banning someone who looks like they're breaking instance rules.

I live in the U.S. South so it's extremely relevant for me at this time. I'm surrounded by the right wing, bathed into it everytime I go outside or flip on the radio. It's such a weird disconnect that people can recognize the GOP as a cult, indoctrination at birth, supported by a horrible education system and a defunct family dynamic that excludes anyone stepping out of line. Yet, there's non-stop calls for violence against them in general and a constant tightening of the RED VS BLUE in the form of quips and rhetoric making it harder to have any actual conversations with the individuals. Regardless, I'm just grateful for the conversations I see with actual information on policies and discussions of the merits without the need to name call or belittle each other.

Good to see that getting whipped set you on the eightfold path to "just another hundred million more"

There is no such thing as a childish or insensitive comment about the CCP or xinnie the poo

So, your criticism of lemmy.ml is a two year old post you found on Twitter that has nothing to do with Lemmy.

[-] Angry_Autist@lemmy.world 14 points 3 months ago

It's not a direct criticism, it's an inferrential exploration, meaning that there are many communities on lemmy.ml that are filled with similar comments, which it is.

Terrible, shithole instance that needs to be forgotten from the internet.
