Imagine if Ukraine invaded Belarus and caused an Arab Spring style uprising against Lukashenko

If Putin somehow lost Belarus I’d laugh real hard

@NOT_RICK @downpunxx #fckputin would new need leverage over luka. I doubt it. Yes, would be a 'reverse kursk' move to bind ua forces, but luka can't be so utterly stupid. He neighbours NATO countries. 90% nothing happens. 10%: oh boy

Quit atting everyone just write your comment

They may be coming from somewhere other than Lemmy (Mastodon?) and this format is more acceptable and/or normalized for them. One of the quirks of the fediverse.

Oh look, it took me all of a half second to skip over the @s and read the message! What inconvenience!

Obviously that's not the issue, it's just poor etiquette

[–] [email protected] 1 points 2 months ago (1 children)

So complain to the developers that make mastodon work that way. Complaining here is worse than useless, no one here can do anything about it

They could edit their comment or go away

[–] [email protected] 1 points 2 months ago (1 children)

or go away

One of the only true 'responsibilities' of Lemmy users is to conduct themselves in a manner that encourages user participation. This is not that and you are getting close to harrassement territory.

Drop it, and complain to the Lemmy/Mastodon devs.

Does MFA stand for Mother Fucking Army?

Translated to the lingo of the American south I think it might read something like:

Oh, sweet summer child, bless your heart. Run along, now, and clean up your toys.

"Y'all better pack up and back off that there border"

Not knowing how these things normally work I'd just kindof assumed it was generally polite if not outright agreed upon that one doesn't leave weapons sitting pointed at one's neighbours 🤔 🤷 Maybe I think too much of hunams 😅

…but not greater than the firing range of Ukraine’s systems, just in case.
