or go away

One of the only true ‘responsibilities’ of Lemmy users is to conduct themselves in a manner that encourages user participation. This is not that and you are getting close to harrassement territory.

Drop it, and complain to the Lemmy/Mastodon devs.

OH NO! 💥

Mods are not Gods. We do not have universal knowledge. If someone is spouting garbage, point why, preferably back it up with evidence, and above all do so respectfully.

Far as I can tell they were arguing that the pipe sabotage was pointless as the pipes were mostly unused, and that it harms relations with a friendly and prominent nation and consequently jeopardizes NATO/EU membership. Sounds like a cogent argument that I personally don’t like but am not going to censor unless they are rude.

Next time: show that the pipes were in use (they obviously were), that the perpetrators have not been shown to be sanctioned by the UA government as of yet, and that despite the damage Germany has been a faithful supporter even beyond discovery of who the agents were believed to be. Just do so without using direct insults. Not difficult or unreasonable.

The message wasn’t the issue. It was how it was said. Share your opinions freely so long as they aren’t pro-invader and are respectful.

Achtung! Seien Sie zivil.

You also need a high temperature ignition source. Trivial for the military ofc. One of the bonuses in that it is extremely stable/safe unless successfully ignited which is not easy to do. An aluminum can filled with rust flakes lit by a burning magnesium strip will penetrate an engine block. Amazing stuff. Chemistry teacher used it as a demo in class one day. The minuscule amount he used burnt through the metal tray and molten balls of iron splashed outwards across the entire linoleum floor leaving burn damage everywhere. Lucky nobody was hurt, the Janitors were not happy I’m sure. 😂
