  • This reminds me of how, shortly after Russia launched the SMO, some cringestream media outlet started calling people who don't tow the NATO line online "information terrorists".

  • I remember he made a video called something like The Only Correct Position on the War in Ukraine where he takes a neither Washington nor Moscow approach. He said that the take that Russia invaded out of legitimate security concerns is dumb and wrong because... well it just is, okay!?

  • Also, as a side-note, complaining about Communists when commenting on a community with quite a few Communists is pretty childish, and ends up hurting your credibility more than helping you prove a point.

  • For me, it's stuff that I consciously realize is wrong but unconsciously and irrationally still believe in to some extent.

    I still believe in personal responsibility bootstrapping to an unreasonable degree. For example, I see obesity and drug use as personal moral failings that are wholly on the individual, and only the individual, to rectify -- for myself anyway. I don't wield it as a cudgel against others at least. Come to think of it, I think I mostly believe in this solely so I can be hard on myself.

    I also for some reason vacillate between reactionary Dawkins style anti-theism (extreme to the point where I'm convinced I'd crucify Jesus again if I ever met him) and being convinced that religiosity and spirituality are prerequisites to being a good person and that my inability to convince myself that god is real means I'm an ontologically evil subhuman.

    Also also I find it hard to resist my hard-wired programming to be a knee-jerk western chauvinist. A lot of my "unlimited genocide on the first world" style posting is partly to counteract this tendency within me with an opposite extreme. I guess growing up during the war on terror and never coming across opinions like "maybe all those people our government is bombing are human beings actually" until I'm an adult will do that to a person.

Most of the admin team are Marxist Leninists, but a decent portion of it's userbase are libs, and several instances that normally block Lemmygrad and Hexbear don't block lemmy.ml.

    Executive Order Proclaims America isn't Racist; Immediately Proceeds to Support Race Science

    Over the past decade, Americans have witnessed a concerted and widespread effort to rewrite our Nation’s history, replacing objective facts with a distorted narrative driven by ideology rather than truth. This revisionist movement seeks to undermine the remarkable achievements of the United States by casting its founding principles and historical milestones in a negative light. Under this historical revision, our Nation’s unparalleled legacy of advancing liberty, individual rights, and human happiness is reconstructed as inherently racist, sexist, oppressive, or otherwise irredeemably flawed. Rather than fostering unity and a deeper understanding of our shared past, the widespread effort to rewrite history deepens societal divides and fosters a sense of national shame, disregarding the progress America has made and the ideals that continue to inspire millions around the globe.

    Party with your BFF like it's 99

    A story from my day job. I submitted it to the Daily WTF. Fingers crossed that they'll accept it.


    In order to facilitate development of frontend apps that rely on my employer's antediluvian monolith codebase, a team of developers at the company came up with a backend for frontend (BFF) service that would allow developers on other teams (such as mine) to quickly make frontends that use the monolith's logic and data. The service uses a schema-driven UI approach, where developers make forms by specifying the input elements (along with some related layout and validation logic, also schema-driven) using JSON schemas. This also includes specifying classes on the element for styling purposes. Who wants hot reloading when tweaking styles for a frontend app when you can instead make a JSON schema in a separate DotNET codebase that needs to be compiled (this is sarcasm)? As gross as that aspect is though, it is not today's WTF.

    Right after lunchtime today, I saw a post

    How do you handle your friend group distintegrating due to political differences?

    This has been a concern of mine for awhile now, and it's finally happening. My only close friends are people I have grown up my whole life with. We're all suburbanite cishet crackermen who were well-off enough to never have to struggle with potentially starving or becoming homeless; predictably, this has fostered some garbage politics, mainly trumpanzees and blue MAGA. With Cheeto Hitler removing whatever shreds of a mask of humanity the Great Satan had left, I now have my blue MAGA friends calling out my trumpanzee friends for their support of Drumpf. The trumpanzees have been silent since the inauguration, and today the group chat has been split.

    It was already a terrible form of liberalism for me to have let things slide for the sake of peace and friendship with people who, if I wasn't already close to, would throw in the cuck pit. There is still a major issue in that the most vocal of the friends I'm still in touch with are blue MAGA to the point that, if I'm to grow a spine and a
