A capitalist is someone who owns capital, not someone who supports capitalism. A liberal is someone who supports capitalism. I don’t think Linus is a liberal, given that he’s the Linux guy. But he’s obviously a capitalist, and that’s okay, that’s something you should strive towards if you live under capitalism, even if ideologically you oppose capitalism.
thought-terminating cliché
There’s no argument, it’s the definition of the word. Why do you assume there should be argument around the normal usage of a word?
Lemmy’s frontend default sort (Hot) is weighted heavily by time. Your comment is currently at the top, being the most recent. The second most recent is the second to top comment.
Gets called a racist, immediately starts using slurs.
A complete excision of all overlap with USA culture.
Why did you name your instance .world?! 😭
Okay so you created a meme where you made someone say a popular opinion you disagree with. Then you made someone rebuttal with “You aren’t human” and the subject replying with “You got me”. What is the joke exactly? How should that be interpreted? Because I interpret it as “People who disagree with me aren’t humans”. Do you not see how that is both unfunny and offensive?
Google Play get fined and the reward goes to Google Android.
I used to use Gnome with a tiled window manager. It was a good combo. Don’t see why they have to be exclusive. No hate from my side, KDE and Gnome are both incredible. I can spare some hate for the Gnome-haters though.
The absurd claims of Russia’s goals are all from western propaganda. This is from the day of the invasion: https://www.rt.com/russia/550466-putin-ukraine-opeartion-goals/ What are their goals?
And then they clarify, denazification is optional. A general occupation of Ukraine is not their plan.
If there is more land they want to occupy, then occupying and holding it now doesn’t actually further that goal. The only thing holding it now is good for is protecting the civilians or using it strategically, either industrially or for staging. Because if the country is successfully demilitarised, Ukraine won’t be able to resist occupation, so that land can be taken later for cheaper. But they haven’t outlined a goal of taking additional land. Crimea was already incorporated at the time, so that’s an extra implied goal – Don’t lose Russian land.
What’s a leftist stance you take?
I agree with you, but to be fair, people don’t really choose an email provider. They chose gmail, because anything else is disallowed by everyone’s anti-spam measures.
