orly?

Zhang Wei can change his name to whatever the fuck he wants he’ll still ve Zhang Wei TikTok

life’s full of fun ironies, if we can find ways to appreciate them. a hard lift sometimes.

best of luck!

seveneves was a banger, if you haven’t read it just go in hot.

You have to be at least anti-capitalist to be a leftist.

oh I must have missed the “YOU MUST BE AT LEAST THIS ANARCHO-MARXIST TO RIDE THE LEFTIST LABEL” sign at the front of the line.

damn is this really how you think? are these really the thoughts that just bubble up in that grey matter?

way too much time on your hands if so

you’re so fucking busy delineating who’s not a good leftist that the conservatives are going to destroy you all and you’ll be quibbling about who was a real one and who’s faking being in the concentration camp.

yeah, liberals are conservative scum lol.

liberals are literally on the left wing of the spectrum, but apparently that’s not good enough for ‘arbitrary decider of who’s a leftist’ here

so you’re suggesting, what, exactly?

say I’d observed this trend as well, and agreed there was a risk (I don’t but let’s follow your chain of thinking) - what then?

Because I’m sure there’s a desire for conservatives to have alternatives to reddit, but I as they can federate their own instances and have damn near free reign over whatever communities they want to create, I don’t really understand what’s to be gained from any actions that might be taken. We won’t convince them it’s a conservative haven, and that’s genuinely what they want, a safe space where no one questions their conservatism.

so what is it you’re thinking?

you’re picking a fight that doesn’t exist.

have fun talking to yourself.

The only downside to the loss of physical media

and the fact that it can easily be stolen. I’ve had multiple large CD catalogues stolen, both in college and as an adult. Thousands and thousands of dollars of music <poof> gone.

No one has stolen my ripped music.

YMMV, but CDs are easy to gank enmasse. If it was all vinyl they would have had to take multiple trips pushing a dolly.

In the day of AI, will we ever have a new alternative?

perhaps we’ll see a resurgence of value added platforms that ensure it’s all human generated information. not an easy problem but… if there’s demand

can’t get him to testify if he’s in a burn ward

The brightest candles burn the fastest?

In my original comment, I specify. He’s bonkers is referring to Trump, the actor of those referred to actions.

In your reply, you state ‘YOU’, as if the people against this / and? the people pushing it are responsible for that radicalization, and I take no responsibility for that shitstain’s actions against our allies.

You could have easily been more clear by stating ‘conservatives’ or Trump supporters or - if you meant a blanket indictment - you idiots who didn’t punish the insurrection / pay taxes to a corrupt system of governing etc., hence my dismissal of your reply.

Vague aspersions cast without insight generally get that response.

I have never once heard of it being some white racist ethnostate

I was raised all over the country - but got an education in history. I’ve known the chud’s plan for Cascadia since I was a kid. Why don’t you read history? Don’t you think you should know what you’re endorsing before you start suggesting people support a plan for a white racist ethnostate?

Now that you know it’s history are you in any way reconsidering?

It’s not just a historical motivation, the scumfucks are still pushing for it.

wake up

Cascadia, the one envisioned as a racist white ethnostate?

What the fuck is wrong with you?

We’ll have a Theilocracy then.

I’ve never seen a more vibrant walking, talking example of the need for the 25th amendment.

Invade Mexico, invade greenland, rename the gulf… hello… he’s bonkers, what the fuck are we doing letting this shit back in power…
