followed by India in 1990

India, a country considerably more blasé about safety standards than the US, had already banned it a generation ago. Terrifying negligence on behalf of the FDA. How much money could this have possibly saved the megacorps?

Did they think the vote was a joke or something? Just a silly little smidgeon of sexopolitical violence?

Out of curiosity, what’s the utility in this? Is it meant to be a toy of sorts?

It seems no worse than any other online marketplace now

True and incredibly distressing.

Car goes for about 30k and has great range. Good price for a startup. Solely doing SUVs, which I don’t love, but it seems to be a decent offering for the price.

Seal the doors and light the match.

The article seemed intent on hiding the names of the judges but, thankfully, there aren’t many court shootings per year, per state. Could be this’n

Does china house them or does china do something else with them?

Denying HIV medication is such a malignant display. How does one convince themselves that this is the right course?

Survivors can have a little antidepressant. As a treat

Who’s from threads?

If you have any evidence of meta going after lemmy, I’d be keen on seeing it. Conspiracies really don’t appeal to me but I chug sauce like an Italian sex worker.

You’ve misread the situation entirely. The most active community admin on our instance has described themselves as being staunchly pro-communism and it hasn’t evolved into a slap fight because they’ve been gently pursuing the goal of proliferating their views. Kind person, no clue how they tolerate the internet.

On the other hand, I’ve been hearing the same complaints about the Lemmy devs for like 4 years, long before META came around and before I had even tried lemmy. In this case, I firmly believe people simply dislike clandestine political chicanery and its intended goal.

One side argues “maybe we should be authoritarian buttholes and quietly silence dissent on our website of 10,000” and the other side replies “don’t be an authoritarian butthole or we’ll make fun of you in our community of 200.” I’m not impartial in this, but historical revisionism and whataboutism serving the cause of spreading propaganda is generally not the right direction. Looking at the result of both actions is a decent method for determining what you’d like to support or stifle.

Will the actions of the .ml admins, course unaltered, produce an environment that you’re willing to post and interact with? For me, the answer is a big no.

It’s difficult to bring attention to censorship by way of active censorship of the censorship. I occasionally wonder whether folks on .ml understand that they’re being fed a very particularly catered experience. At least .ml isn’t the largest instance anymore, otherwise getting the word out would be nigh impossible.

And it was a nice bit of foresight to spread the load!

So long as any active communities on .ml end up on the front page, they will inevitably draw attention away from less censored spaces. An interesting one is !comics@lemmy.ml which tends to rise and fall in popularity in inverse proportion to !comicstrips@lemmy.world.

I agree that other communities have popped up to fill the same niches, so that’s step 1 and 2 done. Completely moving away from them, as OP intends, doesn’t seem like a plausible solution.

Nuke Ukraine, the US, France, the UK, uhhhhhh Poland, the Netherlands, Finland, Madagascar but only the parts with coffee bean eating lemurs… the list of countries they haven’t suggested nuking is shorter.

They federate with mastodon.social

Conservative comments on this joyous event can be divided into three groups.

Group 1: how dare the government do this to our golden god!?

Group 2: this is good for Trump’s campaign for reasons

Group 3: the demonrats are going to say mean things about us

Note that none of these are “oh man, I might have been wrong to support him.” The complete absence of regret coupled with severe delusions around trump are more than slightly distressing in the long term.

Bullshit, if that were the case, vagina-possessing astronauts would need to be examined for their propensity for squirting via physical stimulation, lest the craft be inundated with fluids. Could you imagine a bookish man with soft hands and azure eyes leaning toward you while lifting their glasses and calmly, firmly, requesting that you climax at your secondary interview? The chair crinkles lightly as you squirm, the seam voicing your excitement and discomfort all at once. All you can do is ask “will you be there?” And they sit back and smile just a touch more.

Could you imagine?
