  • Because the sole nature of Lemmy is political. The whole reason it exists is political. People want to move away from tech oligarchs and take control of their own spaces, of their data. Rotting on Reddit while all your data is being harvested and your interactions get turned into shareholder value is very convenient. Being on Lemmy is inconvenient (although it has become less so over the last year). So if you're willing to ditch a very convenient platform because of your beliefs, and move to a platform that aligns more closely with said beliefs, then it's fairly obvious why said platform is so political in nature.

  • You could pick so many more things to criticize China for especially from its past, verifiable events, yet the west always picks Tiananmen Square, making sure to pick the image of the guy standing in front of the tank, but somehow always forgets to show the video of the guy climbing on top of the tank, asking soldiers to turn around to where the protesters are, and somehow forget mentioning that literally half the casualties were soldiers that were set ablaze. Even diplomatic cables at the time either leaked or declassified prove that.

  • It's a completely overvalued company. Other car companies have a much higher production rate, sell more cars, at a much better quality, and have more market share, yet don't "enjoy" the same kind of market valuation. In Germany, Teslas are on par with Dacia in terms of production quality, yet Dacia sells cars at a fraction of the cost of Tesla. In other words, it's a bubble. One way or another, it will burst, and if it takes the nazi boss in charge down with it, even better.

  • No. I do not have Russian heritage, nor does my family. I'm Romanian, with a bit of jewish and Czech ancestry. I was born in the 90s. My family is working class. As were my grandparents, and their parents, and so on. Peasants and workers. Always lived in Romania

  • If this is the mentality you're gonna approach this situation with, you're cooked. The demented orange asshole is already building a dictatorship and democrats barely give a shit. "Fearing the consequences" isn't something they do because there are no consequences as we've seen multiple times. You gotta make them fear for their lives. And you gotta give people a real alternative to the oligarchy that is the US.

  • Those are no atrocities. The Soviet Union managed to save a ton of jews from the nazi hordes. In fact, most jews that stayed behind died in the Holocaust. The biggest group of jews that survived the holocaust were those deported from the frontlines by the soviets.

  • The soviets did what was right in order to protect polish jews and their own citizens from the german hordes. The nazi troglodytes made it extremely clear that they were going to attack the Soviet Union and leave nothing but scorched land behind them on their way to Moscow. Which they eventually did. The Soviet Union did the only smart thing at the time, which was to create a buffer zone while they were consolidating their military forces in order to eventually fight back against the germans, instead of just making the libs feel nice and letting the nazis take the entirety of Poland, as they were planning to anyways.
