  • Cool. So you’d support a popular, citizen lead uprising that had to convince illiterate farmers to take up arms against western funded and armed authoritarian monarchists and then establishing a state to deal with the now 1 billion people that statistically knew nothing but farming while introducing them to higher level concepts like the existence of police or government they can participate in or what their taxes even do, right?

    Hell if you were a communist you’d have some response to how to deal with an international, infinitely funded threat actor right?

    You wouldn’t be stuck at the idea that you can go from agrarian subsistence farmers to post scarcity mutual aid communes, right? You wouldn’t be dumb enough to think that you even have the capability to defend yourself and you local community, much less a revolution, without a clear state hierarchy in place for mass coordination and communication, right? You’d be smart enough to know why stateless communities cannot exist in any world where a single stated capitalist actor exists, right?

    There was no strawman, by the way, cosplayer. You repeat the empires propaganda like a lib, you repeat their ideology word for word, it doesn’t matter what you call yourself.




  • China is communist, and there’s a reason authoritarianism exists in those spaces. That reason is the US, which spends unlimited amounts of money to upkeep their war economy that they haven’t cooled off since ww2.

    Absent constant attacks there’s a good chance authoritarianism wouldn’t have ever developed in those spaces. But since someone keeps funding scorned previously rich fucks to start counterrevolutions, it has to exist. A necessary evil until the us and west kill themselves.

    You’re really over estimating agriculture as a technology tree. It takes pretty much no thought to notice that the trash pile tends to grow the things you put in the trash pile, and from there it’s experimentation on what in the trash pile of food makes more food (realistically medicinal herbs) grow.

    Agriculture was developed at least a few thousand years before stationary settlement.

    Imagine the world is a video game. Higher value characters of the race man would have things like a high earning job (a good class), a decent amount of wealth, high physical stats, high charisma. Low value characters would have a terrible class (smelly gamer), stats they believe are skewed towards intelligence, and no money.

    If your world view is like this except you also believe there are hidden stats you can’t ever change(like looks), and you’re in a capitalist nightmarescape where even changing your class and amount of wealth is typically impossible, then you’ve accidently an entire incel.





  • Yes. Lemmy is a collection of little dictatorships that all share the contents of their domains.

    If you piss off someone, you’ll be permabanned much quicker than even the bad site. The good part of this is you can just pick another instance and ignore that.

    You will find communities and even entire instances that fundamentally disagree with your existence, no matter how benign and agreeable you are. It’s good to just set up a few accounts to continue enjoying your time even when a random rich piece of trash finds an issue with you.



  • For b and c you can like it or not, but given pedophilia is a sexuality that most people think deserves the death penalty, and the state 100% agrees, you’re not going to get people getting professional help. Instead, given the fact unlike even ai CSAM no child is harmed; and given all studies show that there is at worst no link between the media we see and the crimes, and at best a negative correlation, maybe just leave it.

    Given how especially US prisons are formatted, it is a death penalty offense if you make something like this jail time.

    So ask yourself, is seeing a drawing worth torture and death? If not, let’s not worry about it. We have actual problems. Like food. And shelter. And water.


  • A) this is Texas. It’s a guarantee this will be used to increase jail time for the unwanted of society that are arrested on other charges. Got an of age anime character as your phone background when you’re searched? Congrats that minor theft a racist cop pinned on you is now a felony sex crime. Enjoy getting shanked in prison.

    A pt2) this is Texas, the land of the mega church pedophiles and the second largest concentration of Mormons(read pedophiles). This is not a serious bill to help children when rich religious people can rape away.

    B) it’s a drawing. What age is a drawing? Police literally cannot discern age in human beings (see the little Lupe trial among dozens of others), on top of that age science in humans is pseudo science at the best of times. Everyone matures at different rates. Some people’s body aren’t done until their thirties. What age is a drawing, given there’s no standard way to tell what age a human is?

    C) violent video games do not cause violent behaviors, in fact the correlation is consistently the opposite. Porn availability does not cause sex crimes, in fact the correlation is consistently the opposite. Therefore even if we accept the idea that this is VCSAM, that this is a legitimate bill that will only be used in the best scenarios, that somehow police start to divine the ages of fictional beings correctly at all times, banning it likely does more harm than good.


  • 1-3 for friend groups, 3-20 for various games because devs decided to stop using traditional forums so if you want to talk shit to a game devs face regarding changes that fix the exploit you’ve been using to have fun you have to pretend to be a discord kitten for months and gain their confidence so you can appropriately deal enough psychic damage to repay what they took from you, 5-10 for foss software collaboration, 5-10 for obscure porn game contribution so it stops taking ten fucking months between updates.

    And I think I’m pretty asocial. Normies must have thousands of servers joined.
