Yes?

Oh, Lemmy has fascists now.

The left wing was cutting public services, right. Famous left wing policy. I think you're thinking of liberals.

You think Russia is communist?

scientists who deliver alternatives

Like what?

I wanted to partake in the revolution but a friend asked if I wanted to go have launch and so I foolishly went with them.

Oh if I could only do both!

Oh, she's extremist compared to the political center. Just as people in favor of women's suffrage were in the early 20th century.

Doesn't make her wrong though. It's just damning for the majority.

"... that of the People's Republic Of China's weird American fan club"

So people should protest somewhere where nobody notices? Preferably quietly?

That's not how protests work.

I'm no communist, but your argument is flawed.

Linus is not representative of the Linux community and I think the famous Stallman rant regarding GNU/Linux is actually relevant here.

The free software movement is certainly pretty left leaning, though I wouldn't call them communist.

You're free to be super duper racist, sexist, ableist, pretty much any kind of discrimination you want. Isn't that enough?

You never changed your mind because of something you read online?

Teaching children how to be gay, sure.

Hey, Children. If you like somebody and they like you back, don't worry about which gender you think you belong to.

People can love people no matter if they are the same gender or not.

You just but I wouldn't be surprised if that happened.

Conservatives have a long running feud with the sciences.

I read that as "there isn't good quality evidence" not as "flossing doesn't work".

If you have plaque on your teeth that doesn't get removed it turns into tartar/calculus. If it's between your teeth, over time that can lead to retreating gum and exposed dental necks. It's of course also something promoting tooth decay.

Removing this plaque with a tooth brush can be difficult to impossible depending on how your teeth are laid out. Floss can be helpful to remove it.

Are you saying this isn't true?

Or if they do, it's not the full article. Which I get, them being in the business of selling ads and all.

I don't know. I remember when people changed the color of their twitter profiles and ended racism.

The popularity of the AFD is not the fault of the people actually trying to make things a tiny bit better. It's thanks to right wing media and parties (CxU) continuously slandering them after complete failure to improve things even the tiniest bit during their time in power.

Even the most mild and harmless change to somewhat reduce the apocalyptic global warming we're creating is fought tooth and nail by the right wing.

Your argument makes as much sense as the people saying gay people are making things worse by forcing their gayness down everyone's throat. No, right wing people don't want to do anything about climate change and want LGBT people not to exist.

You can't appease those dicks into rationality.

I'd have no issue if they were interested in actual communism instead of stalinism/maoism and their hyper capitalist successors.

More because it would have entailed quite the logistical conundrum as it's a bit difficult to run a country when most of its citizens are dead.

Good memories. Those were real protesters! They just quietly and politely asked for acknowledgement of their humanity, as one should.

Nowadays who knows what people are capable of. I've heard somebody threw paint on the glass in front of some painting!

These people should get shot for advocating such horrible violence.

We have an old saying in Germany, from the times of the Weimar Republic's communists, which roughly translates to:

"Who has betrayed us? The Social Democrats"

It rhymes in German.

What kind of salt?

With added sugar, flavour and occasionally vitamins and micronutrients.

Not saying it's necessarily bad though

The issue is who decides what kind of behaviour deserves that kind of treatment.

It inevitably ends up harming the wrong people in the end.

I can understand the sentiment though.

I think you meant to write ass-driven

Ah, but we won't all die. Just the poor. The majority will just live worse, much worse lifes.

The important people like Elon will be mostly fine though and isn't that what counts?

Yeah, that's where the left-right concept kinda breaks down.

It feels wrong to say the USSR wasn't left when you consider the many left policies they had and of course their origin.

I also agree with your idea of what left-wing should mean. I guess there's no way to avoid complexity with topics like this.

It is. Did that when this was first announced

I think you're telling on yourself

Oh, going by the actual definition of fascism and calling fans of Mussolini fascist? How very fascist of you!

You can use the same electricity you'd use to charge an electric car to separate water,

With a huge power loss, even if you just look at the hydrogen production and not the transport, storage and maintenance of the specialised facilities necessary to distribute it.

Hydrogen is super inefficient compared to electric vehicles.

It's making me sick what these extremists are capable of.

I think we should use every political tool democratic states have used so far to protect oil supplies to fight these terrorists.

So carpet bombing the next demonstration should be fine. That'll show them how merciful the political center is.

"Hack" the TPM. Ha!

It's the second one

They're a crypto bro. They probably think they'll live on a swimming libertarian island by then.

Of course it's political. Politics aren't just about things where there can be legitimate disagreement.

Acknowledging climate change is political. So is everything from basic public transport, better healthcare to if sexism and racism are even a thing.

It shouldn't be. We also shouldn't have a resurgence of actual fascists. But we do and it is.
