What if you wouldn’t be consripted? Or you’d not be sent to frontlines? Or you’d happen to go through it unscarsed? If you can’t change it, you can only bet it won’t notice and harm you.

There’s like a day or two of lectures about how this state of mind works. I’ve started to ignore some folks who’ve drown into it.

That’s how majority-vik party becomes the government on display.

Denying big powerful entities from controlling you is both anarchist and communist, and is based.

I’m sure if it comes to being ruled by Meta, many previously .lm users would get it.

From the side of Fediverse, there’s like no argument to accept Facebook but WE NEED TO GROW. And no, the influx of some millions of users won’t bring life or quality to Lemmy, it would replace it for what culture of communicating is in the Insta. And I don’t feel like many people there would vote to have this.

Once you accept it, your community is overtaken (and you need to serve another thousands of users as an admin). I don’t feel anyone would be open to include them.

Would aiming this rage at a corrupted official who did nothing change that?

I am on board with creating less violence but I weight it with not creating the ground for more violence in the future. Would violence stop after getting ceasefire now? Won’t it repeat? When it started in 2014 but then came to a slow burning everyone forgot about, it set a precedent that one may do that with minimum repercussions, and so it restarted anew in 2022. And so it may once again until doing that would be impossible for one reason or another.

Global MIC is evil but that’s a different issue. It should, in my mind, being fought against with international treaties for disarmament and creating allianced armies like NATO so no one would have or need it’s own military. But it’s a long game and we are likely to die from heatwaves before we agree to give up bombs.

This came to a logical problem of naming a coalition by several group names’ initials. And a very loose one at that. I felt the same about the flag updates.

It is a conclusion to what they stand for and why they are created – to get united under one banner to be seen – but at the same time it counters that in how it is disunited in these exact banners, also to be seen and recognized but individually. And a rainbow flag, iirc, wasn’t meant to mean something by each colour in it, lol.

I feel like switching to the name and a flag that don’t include that self-expansion and would just stay the same would be better – but then I catch myself realizing it is nothing other than creating another acronym\flag and asking to be argued by those who promoted these expansion for I deny their effort to gain visibility.

Shit’s a mess.

What is your solution and who’d benefit from it the most?

A grumpy teacher-person said you can’t have fun there.

Thanks for your detailed answers.

It’s just I see one collab having a gateway on their PC for russian-based labs to operare rather than the whole scheme based oin Ukraine.

Cell-tower data would be hepfull to locate the guy, but do web\apps collect it?

Do you need to connect to actual celltowers tho? I know legit SIMs are a kind of a barrier, but then…

Using a portal through KZ to an UA endpoint via VPN\proxy, faking geoloc and other identifying stuff on your device.

For me, it sounds like enough, and a collaborant is only holding an exit node that is easier to defend in court than having all infrastructure at their place.

Agreed, wholeheartedly.

It’s also a fun bit that our special services and oligarchs has a lot of handshaking with your politicians and having same talking points. Both have their own goals in that, but they do cooperate to secure their standing and wealth.

It’s kinda weak to ask your people to not help my own propaganda, but seeing Rogan and Carlson shortly translated into russian and spreading it as the opinion at the very heart of the US of A, while Biden is joked at every single time he trips over something causes me headaches.

If there weren’t these fucks capitalizing on anything, the media hold could’ve been less strong… But at this point we collectively smell our own farts anyway. So it’s more of a wish for you to become better as I lose any hope we’d ever come to what the majority of the world thinks is bad.

And I don’t want another country to come onto that level of a shitshow. We have enough of them rn.

Russian girls part was the best for it shows how unhinged they are if they aren’t a troll.

I happened to be born there, and I’ve seen a discussion about who’s to blame for so long it’s nausiating.

Idk what foreigners mean by that, probs they just react to the news and socialize by saying that without a second thought most of the time.

But the sad truth is regular people were purposefully fucked in the head for two decades (after just ten years of promising chaos). That’s not easy to undo. They won’t magically wake up after wishing another drone strike on Kiyv, they don’t believe they deserve political power or freedom, all they talk is how they are wronged by the world and how they get their sweet revenge.

If they weren’t so submissive it couldn’t have happened. It’s a learnt serf mentality. And they are complicit in that tragedy as well. Not as much, but it sure feels like there we see the whole country acting as a one, not a handful of leaders doing that against their will. And others like me not having means or courage to speak up. I’ve been already disowned by some friendgroups, thankfully without telling on me.

The whole thing about carving out ‘the good russians’ is done by people who didn’t (or couldn’t) do anything before it’s too late, to feel better and to bear with it. It’s its’ own subculture. And I really doubt this distinction means much in the big picture. Unvocal minority not even hitting the margin of error, and not deserving support like those who actually fucking die. A community without it’s place.

And I’m really surprised I see this group named in english language.

edit: Originally there were three or four paragraphs. I sent it too early.

They are catering to hardcore misogynists who want women be treated like pets. The right to decide your apperance, having self respect, being picky about your partner and enjoying yourself as a woman in general is against some imaginary trad values, and what men who are usually in their militant clique don’t like, not to say it’s too ‘foreign’ to their taste. Producing drugs and abusing kids aren’t tho – they walked back on fighting these after initially saying so iirc.

They are a militant cartel with a religious cover. And they bend whatever they want from it to control masses, as they have a local monopoly on saying what is ultimately good or bad by the will of God (since they have guns). Is it so uncommon?

My AK says I am the chad there. That chad wants to fuck and have spare cash. Isn’t it convinient my retelling of the book says it’s a natural order?

Never happened, but there it is once again.

Still, being physically there is weird. Aren’t there reliable ways to fake it?

Is it sarcasm?

Imagine being that pathetic and useless. I bet these idiots have higher pay than regular workers just for harrasing random people while casually walking around. A mall cop, but even less useful to society.

They also gifted a statuette to u/violentacrez or what’s his handle? for powermodding dozens of nsfw subs, including borderline paedophilic, violent and abusive ones, like revenge porn partners upload after a break up to hurt their ex-couple.

They did great at handling the search of a boston bomber. Fuck ups happen way more often than forum dudes finding ISIS camp by triangulating the sky in a picture. I’m kinda happy to have this viral and well-documented drama to refer.

They rarely ever did their job before the press got involved, or they step into prison sentence territory. My personal favorite waa when altright sub stickied a link to crowdfund a contract killer for a guy who punched a right-wing talking head Robert Spencer on camera. Then, you have fatpeoplehate and other subs that weren’t as dense and worked for years. Right before Spez’s very eyes. Not to say some mass-shooters were frequenting and were inspired by these spaces too.

While modding jailbait is discussed (like, you could promote to a mod role everyone – that’s how he excuse it), these things were consciously enabled by him. He platformed the worst people you can think of. And it sure shall not be forgotten.

Spez sold Reddit for some small $mils before failing his other project and returning as a hired CEO. He is a cheapskate among media magnates. He isn’t clever and is a loser. He adores Elon because he wishes he can throw money around just like him, but on the day’s end he knows he doesn’t have comparable wealth and he is there just because he happened to be around Aaron Swartz and other cool dudes. He himself couldn’t create Reddit. And being the top admin of it now is probably the closest thing in corporate world to cuckolding, for he doesn’t have a word in managing the ‘frontpage of the internet’ he once owned, he just follows what the board says him to. Sad piece of shit he is. Won’t cry about him tho. Let misery fall onto his little empty head.

Muskie-baka can’t figire it out. I feel obliged to help him.

What exactly to thank him for?
