  • When someone brings Holodomor they're not even trying to understand what they're even blaming, so out of tiredness, I don't bring up the fact that the ones who ruined the farms and crops were the rich private landowners who didn't want their properties to be turned over to the state. Holodomor is a capitalist genocide in what was a communist country.

    Think for a second: why would a country building an army, needing healthy adults, purposely cause a famine?

    Meanwhile every western genocide is about racism, slave-labour and exploitation of the land. Every single one.

    Also, nice fallacies you're throwing out there, like that ad hominem at the end, truly marvellous.

  • Then I'm glad to be your acquaintance, comrade. We might have different ideas on how things could be better and how to fight for them, but we definitely know what the real issues are.

  • So by those rules you imply the whole west is genocidal and Nazist?

    • USA: genocide of it's poor, black and indigenous population (by both violence and forced poverty), anti-immigrant policies, police violence, and support for right-wing coups over the world, with Ukraine being the most notable among the recent ones
    • Canada: genocide of indigenous population, forced castration, support for right-wing coups
    • France: anti-immigrants, support for right-wing coups, exploitation and genocide of Africans
    • Australia: see USA, except for being a direct financial contributor to right-wing coups (but supporting them nonetheless)

    Every western power is genocidal and imperialist, and most crises currently ongoing are way worse than that tired example you gave. Do you just care if the suffering population is white?

    Also, about allying with Nazis: after WW2, who brought home Nazi high officials and gave them positions of power in their own countries again? USA and UK, if you don't remember.

  • Afaik it's consensus for communists to be both anti-NATO and anti-Putin, as is my case. But since lots of people now just use "tankie" as a derogatory term for "communist" instead of "Putin supporter and Russian supremacist", I felt like making the distinction was a good call.

  • (I'm implying that you, as many others, equate "tankies" with "communists")

    That's why I restricted to only those worth their salt. Russian-right-wing larpers aren't welcome in any communist group.

  • Are you implying killing Nazi soldiers during ww2 was bad?

  • ACAB still checks out outside the USA as well. Police are trained to only defend the bourgeoisie whose boots they lick clean every day.

  • No tankie worth their salt would say it's a good thing, lol. Being anti-NATO doesn't immediately mean someone is pro-Putin.

  • You're implying they have any. Faith isn't a requirement nowadays

  • Oh shit....

  • Many people already said stuff I agree with, but I'd also include low-income families being "justified" in pirating stuff, be it for work, study or entertainment (as entertainment is a basic right imo)

  • As a frontend dev I hate frontend. CSS is not even the main issue.

    Fuck Jest and having to mock libraries. I'm gonna go backend in Go or something like that ASAP.

  • With every passing year, little by little I go deeper to the privacy paranoid side.

    But my focus is way more anti big corporation than pro privacy, that fact those are almost one and the same is mostly a side effect for me.

  • Cult classic! Duvet is such a great song

  • Us FF buddies got each other's backs, don't worry

  • Every year that passes makes me happier I switched to Linux only instead of dual booting. Happy Debian user here.

  • When it isn't the USA it's their daddy Britain, ffs.

  • Ruining a global social media platform, the speedrun

  • It's been some years since I last used Inkscape. Sounds like a good time to dabble again with it.
