  • Sometimes when I stay up too late or wake up too early, I start to hide secret invisible commas in my sentences, I think it is a sign my English skills are declining

  • Things are going to get so overtly disgusting that people will believe this administration invented ICE

  • Maybe in a full post. I also need to explain the whole Peter Thiel thing (with relation to US postwar financial imperialism) and post more about Indian communists, I will add it to the stack

  • This site is like the Bluesky of Reddit in that it is slightly older liberals trying to recapture the magic of being surrounded by bots and teenagers frothing at the mouth with jingoism. But your unfunny jokes just linger in the air like a fart in a poorly ventilated room.

  • Very sophomoric, matching your knowledge of history. Extremely amusing to pretend it would be crazy for the US to fund fascists in poorer countries, when it's the only reason Poland and the Baltic states even have their fake economies. Half of the events in the past 70 years have been instigated by the US funding some proxy force to secure resources.

    You think they're not going to make a grab for the gold and uranium? Do you even remember what happened to Thomas Sankara, long before Ibrahim Traore?

  • Hmm where is Ukraine getting all of these weapons anyways?

    Russian imperialism

    That sounds really scary, what's imperialism? Could you try to define it? I need to become learned like you

  • Strongly resisting the urge to go on a rant about how CS Lewis and JRR Tolkien would get into arguments regarding how hamfisted and Hitlerian their biblical analogies should be

  • That's a dumb reason to fall for propaganda they used on your grandfather. Is it something in the water, maybe?

  • I'll get you a book or video next IOU but here's a CPI(M) outlet I neglect to check due to its lack of RSS feed https://peoplesdemocracy.in/

  • I was just thinking about how tricking investors into putting money into mineral rights and privatized state assets in already lost territory is someone's money printing scheme. Just like the insurance payments for the factories that get blown up there.

  • You are writing fanfiction based off of propaganda NATO is recycling from the Cold War. Literal Asiatic hordes.

  • Are you ready to make this interesting? Because I know who I am betting on

  • Oh so we're admitting the US and its allies are directly at war with Russia now, are we? Tut tut you shouldn't talk down on plucky little Ukraine fending for itself like that.

    Anyways, let's all calm down and focus on making the entirety of the Baltics uninhabitable with antipersonnel mines 🥰

  • "What if I framed geopolitics as a schoolyard quarrel"

    Very original dude. Ever heard of Operation Cyclone?

  • Yes but nothing as bad as the Raddle guy. He sent me over 300 DMs over the course of an hour because I called out his deranged sockpuppet website. So far, the world guys just seem to get drunk and mad or do vote manipulation

  • This kind of offbeat FOSS social media stuff can't replace the major social media monopolies anyways, it serves a different purpose. People just need a backup and evasion from the US finance-tech-military cartel. If you try and put the screws on people who came to you looking for a better option, they'll just flee. Nothing that can be done about the propaganda and advertising though & I reckon it is a bigger issue than the petty harassment and powermodding, which is mostly just deranged roleplaying

  • Good god you're right, and this one seems much better. For starters, half of the recent thumbnails are not fucking Scott Ritter

  • I think that if the lemmy.world people want to wall themselves off and take over their digital fiefdom it will make people take the artificial public opinion less seriously, the way most older lemmy users outgrew reddit. It seems like something they do to reassure themselves. Then again, this network & Mastodon etc are well-known to intelligence contractors. If they had no presence posting + voting here they wouldn't be doing their jobs.
