There there, it’ll be alright… have some jeans

That’s great! I really hope the fediverse can replace corporate slop social media, and I think people coming here and not getting turned off by those bad instances is key.

Rawdogging Lemmy without blocking hexbear and the .ml instances… good luck!

I use tags often, but I don’t block, I use it to track accounts spreading disinformation.

Agree, it do be like that

and the crew

Goodbye terrorist assholes.

He’s not crazy, he’s a cold, calculating sociopath.

He wants people to think he’s crazy when it comes to nukes because that makes his empty threats seem scary.

Did the treaty say the US and UK would offer military assistance? I don’t think it did, yet they are. I wish they’d give more, but it seems to me they’re already going beyond any reasonable expectations based on that agreement.

The Kremlin is the only one that broke that agreement.

Nah, they want people to see the bodies, know what actually happened, and be afraid.

How did “everyone” fuck Ukraine over? Russia fucked them.

Good, send more.

My guess is antifreeze related to armor

Yeah, I imagined basically exactly that happening and decided not to tell anyone about it, not yet anyway. Also, I don’t want them to get death threats from Hexbear like I did…

Same, I haven’t told a soul I use it despite being active here over a year. I still believe in it though (or just really hate the idea of accepting corporate social media).

I think they’re paid to spread disinformation (or run LLMs that spread it) that makes “the West” look bad and their authoritarian leaders (CCP, Kremlin) look good.

So if someone mentions Tiananmen Square they delete it or lie about it, or say “what about Mk ultra,” but not because they actually believe in anything other than getting paid.

Thanks! It’s already happening.

I wonder how many good, reasonable people have checked out Lemmy and seen all the CCP/Kremlin propaganda then just left.

Yes good point, I suggest we deal with it by defederating hexbear and the .ml instances.

The Hexbear and .ml instances aren’t really tankies/communists, IMHO. Some of them, sure, but mostly it’s just a facade for their propaganda.

One less killing machine and a few less terrorists in Ukraine
