you don’t make an activity safer by discouraging people from doing it 🤷‍♀️

so bad it’s impressive 🧐

more interesting question is how tf did medium manage to make TEXT so load goddamn slow lol 🤯

/u/spontaneousH

mine’s definitely mango, with peach in a somewhat far second place :)

ye, this has been the situation in almost all cities i lived in, and it’s by no means exclusive to amsterdam, but i like how this short video highlights the key points of the experience

xi-midvedev

never thought i’d hear this combination lol, sounds pretty badass

In my mind, memes are typically just modern versions of political propagana. For example, old school Bolshevik cartoons follow a similar format.

yeah, good point actually, in that sense you prolly right 🤷‍♀️

Sure, the expectation for a meme is to have a bite sized idea in a humorous context.

ye, but what’s the context here? idk who that guy is, so i don’t get what the humorous part is, which was my main criticism point in the first place; maybe that’s the thing i missed 🤷‍♀️

maybe, but then why have a separate space for memes at all, if virtually everything on a forum falls under the definition of a meme?

capitalism bad and all that, but how that’s a meme 🤨

mfs would rather eat insects instead of eat potato, smh 😔

what a chad lmao

censorship is good when ppl i don’t like are censored 😎

i want to own a train

oh yeah, if trains are so efficient, then why do 60 trains occupy so much space?

russia has about 80 federal subjects (think amerikan states), of which a little over 20 are republics, many of which have their own president or head, and corresponding sets of laws

however, iiuc these laws are always a superset of the federal russian laws, that is, they can only “add” on top of them, they can’t “cancel out” federal russian laws

but anyway, the leningrad oblast (a region where st petersburg is located) isn’t a republic, therefore they can’t make their own laws

however, being gay is technically legal in russia, so it wouldn’t matter that much anyway; gay ppl and organisations are often harassed by cops and all that when they enter the spotlight, but overall they’re able to operate okay-ish in this grey zone

to be fair, russia is more progressive in terms of lgbt rights, if not de jure, then de facto: for example, in st petersburg there’s like a million gay bars, the operate relatively openly…

yeah, i’m a windows-anarcho-accelerationist, why do you ask ☺️

it takes like 2 minutes max to learn all the english words used in programming languages, additionally, parsing for smth like c++ is already an absolute nightmare, needlessly complicating it is … needless

you mean for like documentation and discussion and stuff, not the languages themselves hopefully?

o7 o7 o7

the amount of ppl on reddit cheering for a ww3 on /r/europe and /r/worldnews hit with reality 😬

place is legit utter trash

bruh i just wish there was no war in the first place 😔

Nice to see he’s now an unquestionable authority for you. If that was sole reason they would attack in 2014.

authority is not relevant here, you don’t have to trust or distrust the person giving them, you just have to listen to what they say to learn the reasons, because they’re literally just saying them, legitimacy and subtext of those reasons is a separate issue

is that the nazism is to be smashed as soon as possible

i agree, but has that worked out well so far with this war? if anything, all western countries now sympathize with ukraine, providing them with weapons and all that, and pointing out issues with ukraine is now equated to wanting all ukranians dead or something like that

Huge edits happening in your post as i write this.

yeah, sorry, i was trying to rephrase to make my argument more concise

And anyway, the reason for invasion wasn’t it.

putin mentioned “de-nazification” in his speech announcing the war as one of the key reasons

You might not get it, just as nobody in a fucking murica and UK given a shit in the first time.

how does invading ukraine help with their nazi problem?

i never understood this rhetoric: like yes, there is like a nazi group in ukraine, they even have their own small political party, which completely failed to capture any legal mandates whatsoever in every election it ever participated in iirc… how is invading a the country and killing ppl gonna help that? if anything, ukrainians will be forced to band together with them, if it means protection for them…

pretty sure twitter isn’t paying the standard rates, but even if they were, most fediverse instances are also hosted on cloud services…

probably about the same amount? i’d imagine their operations are rather efficient…

no, i’d say these two are different

one is hatred based on largely superficial traits that one can’t control, the other is hatred based on very deliberate actions

what happens when dumbass billionaires venture into fields that aren’t entirely reliant on government subsidies and corporate protectionism 😂
