I sincerely believe Zelensky was threatened by the neo-nazis not to surrender, ever. I remember vaguely that in the beginning of the war his wife was not in public view, I think she was abducted/held by the neo-nazis to make sure he doesn't leave. I don't think Zelensky has any agency or say in this matter. He does what he is told, all of the stuff about him being like Churchill is just PR.

Is that a clip from that movie Absolutely Anything? Now I'm glad I didn't watch it.

You didn't format your post properly: "Thoughts on this community existing?"

It wouldn't have gotten off the ground. Often it is the "weirdos" (eccentrics, passionate people) who move things along.

degoogling/decorporatising it is nigh to impossible

That's not true. Do you mean that some things may not work without Google services? Cause that's kind of true, even with microG. But then again, if an app/service relies on Google services as a necessary component, then it's probably best to avoid it altogether.

What you might call a successful decorporstisation will certainly involve vendor-specific proprietary blobs

Yeah, Xiaomi phones require vendor-specific proprietary blobs, but that's different than having Google know where I am and where I've been in the world, what sites I visit, and so on.

Hoarders are people who can't throw anything away, who fill up their houses and apartments with (useless) things.

When things aren't "useless" or have some sort of value we call them "collectors". lmao I just realised how funny that is. A person is considered unwell if they fill up their house in disorderly fashion with things with no perceived value, but if someone fills up their house with Marvel toys and displays them nicely then they are a sane collector.

Collectivism, whether it be communist, fascist or capitalist ideologically isn’t something that serves my interests as an indigenous subsistence farmer and forager living in these remote mountains.

lol. Fuck everyone who isn't able to be a substinence farmer in remote mountains, I guess.

People.underestimate how much we rely on society, "the collective". Even Henry David Thoreau admitted that he needed society to buy tools and things like nails when he went to live alone in the woods.

Even if a person can live alone, without contact for a while, they will eventually grow old or have an accident, catch a disease, get attacked by an animal, and need society's care.

Delaware, Florida cancel primaries to deny ‘uncommitted’ challenge to Biden ( www.workers.org )

Given the growing enthusiasm for the “uncommitted movement,” which has drawn well over half a million voters in nearly two dozen states since February, there is little doubt that turnout in Delaware, whose primary would have been April 2, would have mirrored, or even surpassed the average of 10% to 19% voter support for...

it doesn’t seem to be using super biased language

What? It's an explicitly anti-communist website, cataloging communists and socialists from around the world. They even ask for ex-socialist informants.

We welcome tip-offs from ex-socialists as well as those still working inside the system. This inside knowledge is valuable in exposing the covert side of politics.

Keywiki exists to expose the political left in America and the rest of the World.

Upvoted because I've never heard about it and it is a website we should be aware of. They're literally our self-proclaimed enemies.

It's super easy to make your own packages for void linux with xbps.

@multitotal@lemmygrad.ml avatar

+1 for void linux, it has a great init (runit) and it is very unix-like in the sense that configuration is done through files. It's also very stable despite being rolling release.

Don't be so quick to defend the "SJWs", they are liberals, after all.

"... Tankies, ... and other fascists not welcomed."

Liberals are not our allies. Let the liberals and the alt-right eat each other, they're two sides of the same culture war coin.

US and NATO are also very pro-LGBTQ, does that mean we need to side with them against African and SEA countries who don't have a good LGBTQ track record? They use trans people as a tool to gain control, they support trans people as long as they are useful to them. Liberals want to control everyone's thoughts and they think they can do that by removing words and policing speech. Liberals do not have allies, all they care about is that liberalism is the dominant ideology. They wouldn't take kindly to support of China, lack of support of Biden, or whatever issue they use to spread their influence. Saying China is not committing genocide against Uyghurs is "genocide denial", too.

enforcing basic code of conduct rules

That they wrote themselves and want to apply everywhere. Obviously I'm not for insulting people because of sexual preferences, ethnicity, etc. but we don't need liberals with a "Code of Conduct" to "protect" people. If a person doesn't like a community, they don't have to join it. Hyprland isn't the only window manager, there are others, it's not like it is an essential part of Linux everyone must use.

I much rather have Nazis out in the open than hiding. I much rather be able to see the community for what it is, so I can make an educated decision on whether I want to be a part of it or not.

In my experience as an immigrant in Western Europe I found that people (liberals, progressives) in these countries will never use racial slurs, they'll go through the motions of being "inclusive" and will never outright say something racist against other ethnicities, but they are in fact racist as fuck. I feel stupid for falling for it, I believed that inclusive language = actual inclusivity. But it doesn't. Enforcing a Code of Conduct in the Hyprland community is not going to make that community inclusive of trans people, what it will do is make trans people believe the community is inclusive, so once they join maybe they'll be made fun of in private or their information stored and shared through private channels. That's putting people at risk, making them join communities that appear safe.

The creator of Hyprland obviously isn't bothered by having these alt-right/Nazi types in the community and hasn't been willing to remove them. These liberals certainly won't make him change his mind, what they'll do is make the anti-LGBTQ crowd even more anti-LGBTQ, and I think that's the real goal. The more vocal the anti-LGBTQ people are the more power the liberals say they need -- and receive. Because if they don't, then they just turn around and say that Red Hat and all these other projects are anti-LGBTQ too because they refuse to give liberals the tools they say they need.

@whoami That's why I say they're the sides of the same culture war coin. Because they need each other to exist.

That's my point! The US loves to hang the rainbow LGBTQ flag in its embassies, like the one in Russia. That's why I said they use the issue as a tool to advance imperialism, much like the liberals use the Code of Conduct to extend control.

I don't see any mass public transit in that photo. Those little floating gondolas don't count.

You can go through China or another country that hasn't closed its border to Russia. I don't think Russia would cause you trouble on account of where your passport was issued, but if they stamp your passport, you might get in trouble in your home country. You can always ask them to stamp a piece of paper instead of your passport (that's how Americans travel to Cuba).

Then you can lose your passport when you leave the plane. Your identity card will get you into your own country.

Garbage. Nolan can't make any other kind of movie than a CGI "epic", no wonder he gave this movie his usual treatment.
