  • It's not appeasement, it's diplomacy. the kind of wars that don't end with diplomacy are the ones where we all end up dead as a result.

  • I gotta agree, has gone on far too long and continuing to pump in money and weapons is only getting people killed. at this point it's probably only making the outcome worse by dragging it out

  • not really sure the analogy fits directly, in this case people are mad that the brioche is expensive and I'm saying "why not eat bread"

  • one weird trick to save money on eggs: go vegan, my eggspenses are $0/month

  • I would point out that the system we live in now is also maintained by violence and a lot of bloodshed, all alternatives are aggressively opposed, many people live in awful conditions already, and more often they tend to be the people on receiving end of US weapon systems. The actual death toll of capitalism is extremely high if you include social murder and neglect too.

  • Trueanon, if I ever make a manifesto I'm mentioning them in it

  • no they're not, I would have seen them at orientation

  • trains are the great unifier 😌

  • My experience is that most people cant tell the difference between anyone on the the left. If they're type concerned about 'tankies' they will call anyone to the left of Biden on wars a 'tankie'

  • I dont see lemmygrad

    The default view is subscribed, unless you're browsing all you won't see them unless you already subscribed.

    The Pro-Russia, pro-China posts are enough to make me raise an eyebrow and keep my mouth shut when a mod comes around.

    I can appreciate this, people can be on a hair trigger sometimes. Personally I like to be able to keep track of what both sides narratives are.

  • I'm aware of the ecological collapse on the horizon, things will almost certainly get worse materially for a lot of people.

    Not in denial about the extent of the damage, and the consequences will not be something that is trivial to overcome.

    However I think the case that is to be made is against despair, the people responsible for our current ecological devastation and unequal distribution of resources all have names and addresses, are mortal, are no smarter than any of us, and can be organized against.

  • Russia is a reactionary capitalist shit hole, I wish it wasn't but here we are. many such cases

  • I’m seeing a lot of people call Hexbear a tankie instance lately - they aren’t really though, they are an instance full of trolls who are militant against any belief system at all (most especially their own?), or as near to that as makes no difference. They constantly lie - most especially to one another,

    From my experience they're anarchists/communists like they say they are.

  • meme is a little dated now I don't think any reasonable person would pick option 1

  • The way I read it is more that doomer mentality is when you're staying in the cage due to the barriers in your way, despite it being wide open if you take a different path.
