Which government? Makes a big difference since some other better than others.

I’m not saying OOP definitely had no legitimate reason to change the sign, but without knowing, we can’t assume they did either.

The fact they made no mention of it, leads me to suspect it was mostly for their personal convenience.

Also, government = inefficient is some neo-lib propaganda I can’t tolerate. Any organisation can be inefficient (so, so, so many examples of this in the private sector), and governments can and must be set up to be well-run. The alternative is the privatised neo-lib hellscape we (countries in general) continue to not fix.

The fact you didn’t reply to any of the replies here makes me think you’re not capable of having your mind changed.

Difference here is that he was correctly a clear mistake. OOP here did it for their own selfish reasons

We have no idea why the sign was the way it was. They gave us no background. So I’m biased against the sign changer until given a good argument as to why it was acceptable.

This is how I feel about OOP and people thinking it’s hilarious how they messed with the sign.

I just see another entitled car brain who thinks they should be allowed to do whatever they like.

Just joking around, but yeah, I personally enjoy what I call “supernatural” stories less than sci-fi and fantasy with proper world-building

Wait until you hear about How Vodka Ruined Russia

Tankies ought to be frothing at the mouth about alcoholism, since apparently they love Stalin. And Stalin brought back alcoholism to Russia (Not a socialist at all, in my opinion)

(Disclaimer, I’m in general much further left than the YouTube channel Kraut, but he makes some quite well put-together videos)

Soft magic systems aren’t any fun. Change my mind.

Christianity, stranger things and paranormal activity are equally as uninteresting to me because it’s “because I said so”. Boooooooo, come up with some rules for your world.

Can we make a new category of fiction called “supernatural” SEPARATE from sci-fi and fantasy? Thanks, that would be nice.

Dear Americans, we have a functional government

I feel comparing yourself to the US isn’t a fair standard.

Just the most convenient link as an overview. As far as I can tell the page itself is fairly neutral (other than the criticism section).

Though, happy to hear your perspective of how Stalin’s and Mao’s versions of Marxism–Leninism was democratic.

From many people’s perspective, it definitely was not. And there is no socialism without democratic control by the workers (all of them), in my view anyway.

What account? I don’t see it in any of your modlogs

After checking, either mod logs have changed since it happened to me (it was a decent while ago), or I have fabricated a memory. Perhaps I saw this as a reason when looking through the mod logs of a specific community once. In any case, yeah, it doesn’t exist in my modlogs.

They are pretty heavy with the censorship if you’re pro palestine from what I’ve found.

Haven’t noticed this, yet, though could be because how heavily it’s censored. I mostly engage with that topic on aussie.zone, so this may be why I haven’t noticed.

As a anarchist I have plenty of reservations about both the USSR and China. In terms of internet communities I personally find ML spaces much less annoying than social democrat dominated spaces.

Fair enough, though MLs (the ones I’ve argued with) seem to defend practically everything about them, which is frustrating.

Dashing through the bush in a rusty Holden ute. Kicking up the dust, esky in the boot. Kelpie by my side, singing Christmas songs, It’s summer time and I am in my singlet, shorts and thongs. Oh

Jingle bells, jingle bells, jingle all the way, Christmas in Australia on a scorching summer’s day, Oh, Jingle bells, jingle bells, Christmas time is beaut. Oh what fun it is to ride in a rusty Holden ute.

The people who seem to have problems with lemmy.ml:

• Normies/liberals (not me) who don’t like the large number of tankies on the instance (“tankie” is a FAIR description of “Marxist-Leninists” in my opinion) https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Marxism–Leninism
• Socialists (me included) who don’t like MLs because we believe in socialism democratically controlled by the workers - something MLs seem to pretend to want, but then hold up the USSR and China as examples, which is hilarious at even a cursory glance
• Right wingers, who are afraid of the words “communist” and “socialist”.

Lemmy.World censors a bit, when it comes to calls for violence against rich people (though seem to have chilled recently), which is a bit annoying, but I’ve had multiple comments removed as “reactionary” from .ml.

.ml mods (not all) seem to be very sensitive and very comment removal and ban happy

I’ve seen many normal sounding users on lemmy.ml, but the reputation is not undeserved because there are many MLs on there also.

Holy damn that is a terrible deal

Slashing tyres is probably moral in this situation.

Just don’t get caught.

Just wait, unless the US public drastically ramp up resistance.

You can bet your ass foreign spy agencies are laughing their arses off about this as they track whatever targets they like

I actually love this way of phrasing it so much I’ve saved your comment.

Ah yes, this is a better word haha

What’s worse, is this was the plan all along
