  • News, tech, left-wing politics, memes, anime, and porn are Lemmy’s biggest community types.

    I know a lot of different subtopics fit under each, and I’m sure I left a few top level subjects out, but my point is that there are a lot of mid-sized, and especially smaller (by Reddit standards), subreddits that Lemmy is no where near being remotely useful as a replacement for yet.

    I have community subreddit collections that I don’t see Lemmy replacing anytime soon. I mean, I hope they do. I still check every so often, and yes, communities for them exist and they have maybe a few dozen users, but not enough to even try to just suck it up and deal.



  • Since when do both parties have to agree there at war, for it to be a war?

    McVeigh and his fellow militiamen, or conspirators, felt they were at war with US government.

    I’m sure there’s countless people living throughout the Horn of Africa, who feel they are at war with the US government, while the US government would deny that wholeheartedly.

    Does that mean any of their pickup trucks with M2 Browning’s mounted in the bed, are not actually technicals?


  • A golf cart with an expended LAW tube, welded to the back, and used to launch as many motars as it can before one blows inside and kills it’s operator, is a technical.

    Any motorized civilian vehicle augmented to kill shit in war is a technical. Except maybe VBIED’s, that I’m not sure about.

    Which means that’s the question you should be asking: was a technical used in Oklahoma City bombing?
