I've seen repeated accusations that lemmy is tankie/red-fash, especially when it comes to those that control it - mods/admins/w/e. How true is this?

I can't believe I'm saying this but... based elon?
The feddiverse as a whole might be soon flooded with people tho, prepare yourselves, they comin'

heyspencerb, to NonCredibleDefense

Poll on how best to move forward with growing this group:

  1. Start copying the top posts from the subreddit here with attribution for now until hopefully someday the group gets big enough to generate its own content. ie.:
    Title: "Reddit Credit: [FrostyMin] Tremble before China's new war machine westoid"

  2. Lower the standards to rock bottom here, everyone just post what comes to your mind and upvote what you like, downvote what you don't. Hope the quality slowly improves

  3. Ask people to cross post both here and on Reddit and hope to gradually build with people posting things at the same quality level as they would on the subreddit.

I think option 1 is the best bet, but what are your thoughts?

@heyspencerb I think a combination of 1 & 2.
Personally I say no need to attribute or give credit, it's memes for Christ's sake, they're meant to be stolen and shared around. Whoever whines about their meme being stolen by someone else is a complete bitch.
Also, lower the standards but only temporarily, let people shit talk if that's what they want, or whatever as long as its not bigoted and what not. And then as the places gets more and more populated bring the standards back up.

Personally I'm done with reddit, I'm not going back on there. So I'm definitely gonna enjoy seeing the memes here, and I don't care if they're copied since I wouldn't know in the first place. Ignorance is bliss, yadda yadda.

Finland may cut aid to African countries supporting Russian war in Ukraine (www.euractiv.com)

Finland will not give any development aid to governments and countries that support Russia’s war in Ukraine, according to the programme of Finland’s new right-wing government, Foreign Trade and Development Minister Ville Tavio told YLE on Monday.

btw, did those bot farm instances actually did something so far? Like, anything bad?
I watched them grow to insane ammounts a while back but haven't really checked up on them since.

This is gonna sound weird, I don't even know if its gonna match the intent behind the question, but anyway: right before one of my great-grandmas died there was this tiny European Robin bird that kept chirping outside on the windowsill for what it seemed like 15-20 minutes. It kept chirping and making a constant ruckus and then when my great grandma gave her last breath, the bird stopped chirping and dropped dead on the sill - like literally. I took the bird and buried it in the garden.

I wouldn't have believe this story if anyone else had told me before. I'm not even religious. I have no idea why it happened.

@Mr_Buscemi is right. It's about Prigozhin, the leader of the Wagner group and Putin's ex-best friend getting removed out.
Ever since the armed rebellion that he attempted the Russian state media apparatus and all of the millbloggers as a whole have been ordered to remove Prigozhin completely, to erase him from the public view.

And that is similar to soviet tactics from Stalin's time, where similarly erasures have been performed.
The most well known ones was the picture in which Stalin appeared next to Yezhov, Yezhov former chief of NKVD eventually fell from Stalin's grace, long story short he got a sham trial and later executed.

Oh-oh, that a sign that something is happening to good ol' Nigel. I expect some news to announce it soon.
Also anyone remembers when Nigel gave Assange a USB stick in the Ecuadorian embassy a couple years ago and got really angry/upset when people started asking him what was on that stick? I remember.

If you want to see me commit war crimes, take my bread away.

I thought about that one too at first, but couldn't think of a good couple bread-related lyrics so I switched to The Police :))

Thank you, I also wanted to try it out, but after a few quick tries that led me to a page where I needed to fill in a form to get the data, I gave up.

Someone post it on reddit NCD, I've deleted my account from there.

And that's why I am so heartbroken that 20 years later, the LGBT community supports a new practice that threatens to erase gay people.
It is benignly called 'gender-affirming care.'

Lmao, knew they were about some transphobic shit

Today, LGBT Pride marches arm in arm with radical ideologues who contend there is no such thing as biological sex.

Lmao, no, they don't. Again with this nonsense. Gender's not the same thing as sex. This is not a new thing, it's been going on since forever.

Their extreme doctrine claims that men can simply decide to become women, and, most disturbingly of all, that children can actually change their sex.

eyeroll

Educators, policymakers and physicians are telling young boys that if they like wearing dresses or playing with dolls, they might be girls; young girls are told that if they prefer football to ballet, they might be boys; and that with some experimental pills and high-risk surgeries, they can all finally be 'normal.'

No, that's true.

But what if a young person struggling to be 'normal' is not trans, but gay? What would have happened to me?

In the course of research for my forthcoming memoir, 'Cis White Gay,' I interviewed a wide range of experts and people within the LGBT community on this troubling, evolving ideology.

This bitch needs to be a victim so badly.
