Bobr@lemmy.libertarianfellowship.orgto No Stupid Questions@lemmy.world•Is it a common thing for people who have left authoritarian countries to still feel the fear of their now-former country?9·4 months agoWell, it’s definitely the case for me and for some of my friends/family.
I left Ukraine “legally” (it was before the war, when it was still possible to leave “legally” without paying huge bribes), but some of people I know had to escape “illegally” (some went to the Russia-controlled territories, some escaped through mountains/rivers to Moldova, some were caught…).
Zelensky has already tried to persuade European leaders to deport us, but so far he failed. Still, every once in a while news appear (usually from Baltics/Poland, but sometimes from other countries aa well) about some politician wanting to deport us, so this is quite scary shit.

If you support other people being forced into war, why shouldn’t you be forced there as well? Tit for tat.
Bobr@lemmy.libertarianfellowship.orgto Conservatives•Zelensky: End of War with Russia is 'very, very far away' - BreitbartEnglish4·4 months agoSo you think he doesn’t have a lot of support anymore in Ukraine?
Well, you can ask the people getting kidnapped by his regime how much they support him. Or their family. Lots of people are afraid to leave their homes, others always carry a few thousands dollars to bribe kidnappers into not kidnapping them. That shit is so fucked up it’s unreal. He is only supported by people who think (whether correctly or not) that it will not happen to them.
In the news coverage in our country they basically think everyone supports him and he is the legitimate president. In the EU he is almost worshiped.
I know, I live here as well. It’s so fucked up. But at least with Trump’s administration it’s not taboo anymore to talk about all that shit anymore.
Bobr@lemmy.libertarianfellowship.orgto Conservatives•Zelensky: End of War with Russia is 'very, very far away' - BreitbartEnglish4·4 months agoProbably true as long as he continues to be the dictator of Ukraine. Fingers crossed he will get overthrown soon.

Feel free to expand on that, Lemmy’s character limit is slightly more than your 3 words comment ;)
Inb4 censorship from liberals is not censorship, it is fighting the far right misinformation and removing harmful content or whatever.
Bobr@lemmy.libertarianfellowship.orgto Fediverse memes@feddit.uk•Welcome ex-Redditors!English0·5 months agoLiberals are literally more cruel than war.
A person that has even a slightest bit of compassion/empathy recognizes how bad war is and helps people flee the affected areas, ensures there are minimal casualties, supports ending the war.
Liberals have no compassion, no emapthy, they only pursue their goals no matter the human suffering. They support a dictator that stops people from fleeing the country, resulting in thousands of deaths and suffering people. They support people being kidnapped from the streets, homes and hospitals (the same people that they trapped there), and sent into the meatgrinder, resulting in hundreds of thousands of deaths. They would not mind the war going on until the very last Ukrainian is dead. They have no red lines.
Liberals make an already awful thing a level of magnitude worse. Liberals are worse than war.
Bobr@lemmy.libertarianfellowship.orgto Fediverse memes@feddit.uk•Welcome ex-Redditors!English0·5 months agoThe only thing more cruel than war is liberals.
Bobr@lemmy.libertarianfellowship.orgto Fediverse memes@feddit.uk•Welcome ex-Redditors!English0·5 months agoWhat makes a Tankie, is the support of Authoritarian regimes and turning a blind eye to genocides and many other human rights violations when committed by said regimes
That’s exactly what liberals of Lemmy do though.
When was the last time you spoke against Zelensky’s regime, that literally turned my country into a concentration camp that people cannot leave and are kidnapped off the streets (and even fucking hospitals!) in front of their crying wives/mothers, to be sent into the meatgrinder and never be seen again?
That’s a rhetorical question, of course you never did (and those who do, including me, are paid Russian shills, tankies or just bots). Because for a liberal, it’s never “authoritarianism bad” or “Nazism bad” or “human rights violations bad” or anything like this - it’s only bad when the other side is doing it. When “the good guys” are doing it, it’s not just totally acceptable, the guy is a hero.
Bobr@lemmy.libertarianfellowship.orgto Ask Lemmy@lemmy.world•What's your opinion on mandatory military service?0·5 months agoWell, you raise a valid point, it’s also bad of course.
It’s just that “forcing you to do a thing (a physical labor) you do not want to do” and “forcing you to give up a part of your salary” are different things.
Bobr@lemmy.libertarianfellowship.orgto Ask Lemmy@lemmy.world•What's your opinion on mandatory military service?0·5 months agoOr is it just being forced to directly do morally abhorrent things?
Not just “morally abhorrent things”, any forced labor is wrong.
Bobr@lemmy.libertarianfellowship.orgto Ask Lemmy@lemmy.world•What's your opinion on mandatory military service?0·5 months agoI don’t think I am “arguing semantics” (whatever that means), and you evaded the question :(
Bobr@lemmy.libertarianfellowship.orgto Ask Lemmy@lemmy.world•What's your opinion on mandatory military service?0·5 months agoIn the event of a real defensive war, where your nation is invaded with the intent of conquest or subjugation, you will not have a lack of volunteers. You will have a lack of trained people.
Hey, I have a (purely theoretical!) question if you don’t mind.
So, if there was (theoretically of course) a war out there, where the government openly admits that they lack volunteers, people are trying to escape the country en masse by illegally crossing the border, and also there were thousands of videos online about that government kidnapping people off the streets (so that they have at least someone to send into the war), would it mean by your definition that such a war is not “with the intent of conquest or subjugation”?
Bobr@lemmy.libertarianfellowship.orgto Ask Lemmy@lemmy.world•What's your opinion on mandatory military service?0·5 months agoIt is abuse and violation of person’s freedom and dignity. It (and people supporting it) should be fought by any means necessary.
Bobr@lemmy.libertarianfellowship.orgto Ask Lemmy@lemmy.world•Non americans of lemmy, would you support a ban on american social media on your country?0·6 months agoI’m way too familiar with liberals labeling everything they don’t like as “fascist propaganda” :)
So, still no.
Bobr@lemmy.libertarianfellowship.orgto Ask Lemmy@lemmy.world•Non americans of lemmy, would you support a ban on american social media on your country?0·6 months agoNo. And I would continue helping people evade whatever censorship a government tries to impose on them.
Bobr@lemmy.libertarianfellowship.orgto Ask Lemmy@lemmy.world•Why do you hate "blockchain"?0·8 months agoI don’t hate blockchain, but I can see why other people might.
Blockchain’s more or less only use is in cryptocurrencies (yes there are theoretically other usages, but let’s be honest it’s a drop in the ocean). The #1 cryptocurrency can do about 10TPS (please don’t even mention all the broken L2s), the #2 is “just about to revolutionize the world with smart contracts” for almost ten years already (so far the most revolutionary thing is monkey jpegs), then there are a few stable coins which aren’t even really a cryptocurrency at all, and thousands of literally memecoins.
Real cryptocurrency (XMR and maybe BCH) can and is used as currency (I pay for lots of legal stuff like VPN/VPSs/domains with XMR), but not many people are interested in that I guess.
OP doesn’t ask for “unmoderated” instance though, they are explicitly asking for an instance that “takes moderation seriously”. Moderation is absolutely not the same thing as censorship.
