Fuck all seeing as they live like 9,500 miles away from the US.

“Money is the root of all evil! Why don’t you give that to us so that we can dispose of it properly for you…”

Okay, let’s say he stole the election just for the sake of an exercise. There are a metric fuckton of regime change examples where the US meddled with the elections of other countries for their own gain. Is Venezuela now the magical example where the US government did it simply out of the goodness of their hearts? Or is this just a convenient scenario where Maduro needed to go and the US just happened to be the ones to do it and that’s somehow totally cool? I mean, fuck the approval of Congress, international law, etc. amirite?

Venezuela’s issues and elections are for Venezuelans to decide, not parasitic imperialist scum. The mental gymnastics to support this one are on an Olympic level of stupid.

but Lemmy really fucked up their database performance somehow.

Can confirm. I spent like 4 hours one day configuring auto vacuum and other shit on my Lemmy DB because it was bloating to hell and eating up resources. Runs much smoother now but it was a massive PITA to get there.

I think part of it is that those supposed leftists don’t categorize all of those capitalists the same way. It’s like they view billionaire CEOs and landlords as different groups, when the reality is that they fall into the same capitalist bucket. So landlords being stripped of their hoarded properties so that everyone can have a home, is not viewed by them in the same critical light as a CEO that hoards wealth and exploits the working class.

I don’t have anything solid to back this up. It’s just my general observation. It all boils down to class consciousness and decoupling oneself from propaganda.

I’d also mistake this for Twitter. I’ve never seen so many abhorrent people flock to one place en masse like that.

Trinket.

Wouldn’t this require the multitude of folks making fun of that fucking caveman, to watch said fights and actually pay to view them? Nobody here gives a fuck how much money he’s making.

Wow, such a stunning list of achievements. Dude’s a byproduct of Idiocracy America.

Comes to the .ml memes community from .world and complains about political memes lmao.

No one is forcing you to read these posts. You can shape Lemmy to be whatever you want. You want right wing memes, so basically X or 4chan.

Mad because the world repeatedly dunks on your dollar store hero.

You can see a mix of escapism and “how do I fast track as much money as possible?”

Ahh this is awesome. Funny enough, before I was a web dev, I was a graphic artist. Showing my age as well, my first version of Photoshop was 5 and I learned how to edit on old PowerMacs in high school. In the early 2000s I was on a forum with a similar group of folks. I think I was the only one with formal training, so I’d design forum signatures for everyone, as well as show people how to do their own graphics (as well as where to ahem acquire the software to do so).

I got into IRC and all of those tools late in life, but forums were fun back in the day.

I always wanted to checkout Siggraph but never got the chance.

I used to have a small crew that I would play Left For Dead 1 and 2 on Xbox with. We would all get on mics and get drunk and/or high the whole time. When random people hopped in to play humans vs zombies matches, we would hype them and welcome them. Always tried to be the group that didn’t deter players or talk shit. Had a lot of fun sessions that would go to 3 or 4 AM. I haven’t seen them online in ages.

And somehow Peter Thiel says the Antichrist is someone else and not him. Fucking ketamine-brained billionaire losers.

Lol a single solitary downvote from either a bot, or someone that says shit like “tHaT’s TiMe ThEFt!”

It’s less that Apple cares about privacy, and more that it’s easier for them to control within a walled garden. If you control all of the levers, the rest naturally falls into place. That doesn’t mean it’s better; it’s just different.

People openly bragging about being exploited has always been hilarious to me. I’ve been pushing back on bullshit employer things since my first job in my teens.
