That’s a good point that I hadn’t considered.
I’d expect someone to raise it as a point, though, because I’ve seen the Nazi in a bar meme a million times but never has anyone pointed out the problematic linkage of punks and nazis.
I think it’s more likely that there are bad faith trolls here already that, rather than engage in a discussion, downvote to silence views they don’t like.
Why are you getting downvoted for perfectly answering the question?
Fascists already invading
Thanks for the thoughtful reply, I definitely agree. I strongly believe the best avenue of success is through removing the dollar dependence. It feels like there was some rustling when Bitcoin started to gain traction but I believe that threats been coopted by the rich.
How can I subscribe to Lenincatfacts? You have a mastodon or something?
Sorry bud, how about you start a thread and get some community feedback? Maybe your opinion is problematic or maybe the mods made a mistake.
Idk I’m not psychic
Engagement is a two way street, you need to post something worth engaging with.
Occasionally I’ve seen a valid opinion/idea with some downvotes but there’s still usually responses that get a discussion going. Only the true shit has the massive one sided downvote ratio with, unfortunately, a few replies from people who took the bait.
You’re being downvoted because you straw manned, not sure if intentionally or not.
If your solution to a problem can fit on a bumper sticker it’s wrong.
Like…really? Do you think that this community, or anyone worth talking to, thinks that it’s that easy?
Totally agree - when people start coming out as trolls/bad actors/fascists is when they’re rightly silenced
Thanks for the thoughtful reply. I think both of you have the same general ideas, I enjoyed reading both you and Grays thoughts.
You both argue that a heavily regulated capitalist system is preferable to current state, but you believe that is mostly impossible since the bourgeois/ruling class makes the rules and wouldn’t voluntarily self impose restrictions on themselves. How can that be prevented or mitigated within something like the American political framework?
Nah it’s the fox business that has the magnanimous and cool Larry Kudlow who wants to three way with the other blonde anchors
without the propaganda garbage.
I’d disagree, still rife with garbage. Is it more palatable and more subtle? Sure.
I’d still rather not push any views or engagement to them in the first place. Link one of the countless other news sites with the same talking points. Hell this article was copied from Reuters on to fox business.
Why we linking fox business 🤮
Is he threatening birds?
It is anti intellectual. Idk why it has so many upvotes
It sucks you feel afraid to comment, I definitely understand how you feel. Even if someone responds to you in a hostile way I’ve seen the rest of the community come in for support. And really, report bad actors. Having a good community isn’t easy.
Thanks for providing a positive perspective! It’s really important we don’t lose sight of the good things.
Pi holes could still circumvent this, no? At a high level you’d need a computer to load a page, strip all the garbage, and forward the remaining page to the client. Any drm keys could be retained I would expect?
Tax meat, subsidize healthy meat alternatives.
I’ve seen some around in my city. You can spot them because they are completely plastered in makeup. It looks incredibly unnatural in person but gets filtered out by the camera.
