Fr fanboying over a corporation is the most sad thing I’ve seen in a while

Thats what I meant. It was already illegal to carry a knive out in the open in a public place. It didn’t prevent the Solingen stabbing.

What these weapon-free zones allow is harassment by police against minorities and POC

It’s not like carrying knives in public was legal before, anyway

That’s how I came up with my Username

Capitalism at its finest.

Cause North American kids only think they know what that is but they don’t.

So it’s not a classless society? Also not an American kid btw

Communism in it’s ideal form is impossible… It requires humans to be selfless and share equally. That is not human nature and will never ever happen.

Funny you say that when humans since their very existence cared for their disabled/elderly and formed social relationships trough gifts and gratitude and not for monetary gain.

In fact, lonelyness and the pain associated with it are a protective mechanism, as people were much less likely to survive alone outside the group:

Our ‘human nature’ is to not be an egotistical asshole as that leads to social isolation

It’s actually Capitalism that promotes egotistical and psychopathic behaviour, because you are competing against everyone in order to someday be more wealthy than someone else. Statements like this are bourgeois propaganda to preserve the status quo.

So I’ve actually lived under a communist regime and it was no different than a fascist one. So I dunno what the hell you kids think a communist country looks like.

Actually Communist/Socialist, for a start. With strong democratic institutions.

Dictatorships will always try to preserve their power at the expense of anything else.

You have this weird utopian ideal that is never ever going to happen

Better to have an ideal and fight for a better future than being a defeatist geriatric. Or what do you propose as an alternative?

Communism.

If all Mods simply stopped moderating, Reddit would be dead next week

Cult of the Lamb Cat

Because too many people are dying or because no one dies?

Judging from the heart rate they didn’t take it well…

Unlike in Capitalist countries, China’s billionaires don’t have much political power and actually face consequences for things like corruption, etc.

There are ways to get Monero without compromising your identity. I suggest looking or asking here: https://monero.town/c/monero

It’s a waste of time to argue with fascists anyway.

Don’t feed the trolls

It’s the chicken and egg problem. People don’t move to Mastodon because there are less users and there are less users because people don’t move.

However if someone consumes less social media because there are “less people making noise”, I consider that a good thing.

One reason could be that a network of well-connected right-wing influencers on TikTok share AfD content and help amplify it, according to Verwiebe. Another could be that the majority of AfD candidates, more than any other party, are themselves active on the platform.

I have another: It’s in the financial interest of Tiktok to promote an extremist party with extreme neoliberal views in order to make more profit.
