Leftist unity, but only for the authoritarian left. Hexbears either intentionally ignore or are not aware of the academic case for democratic socialism or other moderate/libertarian left ideas. You just redefine them as liberalism because actually acknowledging that these ideas might liberate workers faster than the often failed journey through autocracy, is very inconvenient for campism.

So for the record, the person who trolled my profile and posted a screenshot trying to make me seem racist, only to get pilloried by additional context, before changing the subject entirely, before finally resorting to his own bizarre ethnic slurs, is the one arguing in good faith. While I am the one pushing "gotcha liberalism" or whatever?

You do you, I guess.

You don't think calling someone a dog is bigoted? Talk about bad faith.

Sure, the soul of every nation is tarnished by the sins of their fathers. I have no argument with this. That doesn't excuse the use of racist language or symbology, as the point can easily be made without such denigration.

This is especially ironic because the hexbears are typically falling over themselves to show how egalitarian and tolerant they are, and at least in my view, such language makes that effort seem particularly hollow.

For those who can't be bothered to spend 30 seconds checking if a lemmygrad user is full of shit, this was my response to racism against Koreans (literally calling them dogs), since I know I'd be banned (again) if I was too mean and called a privileged hexbear poster racist directly.

Sectarian leftist nutters who seem to be extremely overconfident in their amateurish view of philosophy and politics. "The entire world and all of contemporary history is a conspiracy to discredit Lenin" is honestly a pretty shocking view of the world.

The thing about this is fuck all Americans to death amirite?

Lemmy is just as much an information warfare platform as anything on Reddit. The Israel/Hamas coverage has confirmed that pretty conclusively.

There are still far too many system components which run with spooky elevated privileges. Don't believe me? Try nuking permissions on Windows update or activation nagware, disconnect from the internet and see how long those changes persist. Sometimes it is a few reboots.

This is a fundamentally insecure security framework, which no amount of glue or sandboxing can fix.

When did these hallucinations first start?

Wait until FOSS nerds learn that the NSA and DoD are some of the top upstream contributors to FOSS projects.
