Sure, Zionists complain about anti-Israel bias all the time, regardless of reality.

Explanation: AI slop.

Check out the graduation marks on the syringe. It jumps from 5 subdivisions to 6. Also, I guess the number that follows 1 is also 1!?

Similarly, human immune cells previously exposed to ink also showed a weakened response to vaccination.

Please read the OP; this post is for voting. Discussion should happen in the linked posts.

No

That reads to me as if they blocked an impersonating lemmyusa account that was using your same name.

To me, it only seems abusive to OP’s reputation. It’s funny to imagine someone this furious in regular conversation. Otherwise, I can only accept that this is parody.

Mods, please don’t remove these comments. They’ve genuinely given me a good laugh and they may give joy to others.

E: Mods, I’m mildly disappointed in you all. Clicking on OPs profile now leads nowhere. I was very interested in seeing how his/her comment career progressed.

Yes, but that top layer isn’t square. There’s one more row towards the top left. Some Qs need to be removed or added to bring balance to the qube.

Andy Yen might not have the same publicity as Bernie Sanders, but the history is there. This article covers actions and statements from Andy and Proton going back about ten years from what I can see in the timestamps. Some of the highlights include Andy personally:

• announcing programs to support girls into tech that may be considered DEI by GOP standards
• announcing fundraising for Ukraine after the Russian invasion
• criticizing the termination of Credit Suisse’s first and only black CEO, Tidjane Thiam, as racism
• praising Biden’s choice for FTC chair, Lina Khan, after she initiated lawsuits against big tech
• collaborating with Lina Khan in an antitrust report submitted by a Democratic party majority in the Subcommittee on Antitrust
• and outlining new privacy concerns resulting from Trump taking control of the NSA on the official Proton blog.

Yet, despite Andy’s history of actions that run contrary to Trump and the GOP platform, I’d charge that the greater false equivalency is equating Andy as Proton. While Bernie can clearly speak for himself, Andy is not alone in controlling Proton. Proton is a non-profit foundation governed by a board of directors and is headquartered in a country with laws against complying with US subpoenas. As as greater entity, Proton has donated to left-leaning organizations such as Fight for the Future in the US, Access Now, and Women Who Code. Reviewing Proton donations, I don’t see any right-leaning contributions. Most of it is toward privacy and freedom-of-press focused organizations that align with my views. You may have made up your mind on Andy, but I refuse to throw out the entire positive history of Proton in response to this one tweet.

You know, you actually might be right. If the website was akin to a bar and the reasonable article was just a normal customer; however, the rest of the customers (i.e. content) were Nazis, then it definitely doesn’t make it all a Nazi bar. That normal customer can absolutely be right!

Are you aware that Bernie Sanders praised Trump late last year for his proposed credit card interest rate limit? Perhaps it’s time to turn against him too!

For real. Even Bernie Sanders has praised Trump on a single issue before. Are we going to turn against him too?

Donald Trump Gets Unexpected Praise from Bernie Sanders: ‘Good Idea’

Their exact words are still there, so there would be no point in lying about it. The exchange reads:

Maybe you should add “no dissent allowed” to the rules… -Diva

We already have a no authoritarian rule in the sidebar, so that won’t be necessary -WSYU

It’s may just be a joke, but it is clearly equating authoritarianism and dissent. That is all I was commenting on. I don’t care about the fate of Diva or the banning of tankies. I just thought this back and forth was funny and ironic. I hope you get the chance to relax this weekend.

Not tolerating tankies and not tolerating any dissent are two completely different things. I’m specifically calling out the later. When suggested to add a “no dissent rule”, the mod respond that they already had that covered. It sounds like reddit-admin kind of behavior.

Even outside of this specific instance, they’re saying any dissenting opinion can result in a ban. If you think it’s normal, you can enjoy your echo chambers.

Absolutely, I don’t disagree at all. But by claiming to not tolerate any dissenting opinion, you are not “banning authoritarians”; instead, you are becoming the very thing you declared hatred for. I havent seen any evidence that Diva is authoritarian.

Instead, I’ve seen a mod openly claim that any dissenting opinions would result in a ban; and this would only result in the further developement of an echochamber.

Sure, it’s your community, so you ban who you like. You don’t need to justify it to me.

I tried steering the conversation back to my actual point, but it seems like all that was ignored. I thought your rule exchange was funny and incredibly ironic. You might enjoy banning any dissenting opinions, but don’t be surprised when that earns you an “authoritarian” label.

From your other responses to this post, it seems like your primary beef with Diva was their anti-war stances in their post history. You can’t play the paradox-of-tolerance card in response to that. To make your other strawmen relatable, are you saying Diva’s comments are in any way fascist or transphobic? I haven’t seen any intolerance in Diva’s posts.

What I’m directly responding to is the exchange with the “no dissent allowed” rule suggestion, and you basically saying you already got that covered. Squashing all dissent is authoritarian, and you referenced your “no authoritarian” rule when responding with this. I don’t believed I ever joined in one of these PTB discussions before, but this was just too much. Can you not see the irony?

If you’re openly saying that you don’t tolerate any dissent in your community, then it sounds like you’re acting as an authoritarian. Perhaps it’s time to ban yourself 🤔

They’re 100% BlueMAGA in my opinion.
