they already hit the independent thought alarm years ago https://lemmy.nz/post/1227237

I’ve got this goober tagged as “tankie” in my app

lmao

the op meme is about the US space program publicly vaporizing a bunch of astronauts

I dip my bread in pickle brine, had no idea I was being profiled

I had nothing to do with that, but this made me laugh

Too many overtly emotional blue haired folk in moderating positions there

probably for the best to get all the state department groupchat people on those same servers instead of stirring shit everywhere else and crying about censorship

I mean this was a .ee user complaining about seeing people they’re federated with, I’m sure they will be more happy in one of the more liberal echo chamber instances

I understand, the point in response was that non-authoritatian states don’t and haven’t existed. The compass portrays a field that is equal, but in reality only the top half is anything but idealism, historically speaking.

a classless stateless society is what I would prefer. That’s something we can conceive of, but getting there is another issue. Revolutions tend to be pretty authoritarian no matter how you slice it.

I think that still qualifies as a bourgious dictatorship

Yeah, but it’s weird to be complaining about people using /all and finding content, calling it “invading”

he did say communist governments are authoritarian, in them the capitalist class would be getting oppressed by the state in service of the working class. this is why it’s called the dictatorship of the proletariat - the proletariat should still be getting their interests as a class represented in this arrangement, while bourgious have no special status or access due to their capital.

All governments are authoritarian, all states are instruments of class opression. What matters is which class is being oppressed, by which.

are there any examples of libertarian states?

Mostly they were left unblocked until their users started to invade other instances to spread their blatant propaganda.

isn’t the entire point of a federated platform that you’re going to be able to access other instances?

istg people hit the block button like they’re mashing the independent thought alarm

madoka is great too but same problem lmao

G but on my left shoulder

I check all/comments/new, see what people are talking about and if anything catches my eye I may subscribe

hey they made an aid pier that got used to distribute a tiny amount of supplies before it got used to launch an Israeli massacre and then broke apart under its own weight

throwback!

Not all of the countries problems can simply be attributed to ‘the enemy’ on the other side of the planet. The dysfunction I’m pointing out is home grown and enabled on both sides. The republicans are obviously worse, the democrats prevent anything better.

Russia is affecting those things in the us though.

People being unhoused, going hungry and without healthcare is bipartisan consensus in the US and Russia has nothing to do with that.

MS-13 or Russia

neither of those are real concerns tbh. Americans should be concerned about housing, feeding and providing medical care to everyone before worrying about external threats.
