Guy on the right is smiling at a nuclear sunrise (he doesn’t know)
I don’t block it because I want to start up to date with the Nazi regime
Ignorance to current events isn’t joy.
No, but drowning in political events doesn’t make for a positive experience either
Please be patient with us while we struggle with trying to stop a burgeoning dictatorship.
For people outside the US, it has been a brutal dictatorship for a long time. The people whos countries you destroy certainly don’t get a vote
Sorry for the country destruction, that was my bad
And then there’s no content :(
Nah, there’s plenty of Linux and Star Trek
That’s the best part
oh you must be somehow dodging the countless anime and furry communities that are alive and “well”
Idk who the fuck Moe is but this cartoon gal has quite an imaginative and loyal following
honestly i use lemmy explicitly for the politics , helps me remain sane
I think a strong understanding of Marxism helps seed the revolutionary optimism that makes watching the news more bearable than for liberals who see the world as a scary swirl of chaos and no way out. Lenin says it well:
Despair is typical of those who do not understand the causes of evil, see no way out, and are incapable of struggle.
This fits the liberal nihilism to a T.
Unfortunately feels like it’s my responsibility to be paying attention at this point no matter how noisy and brutal it gets
You could also choose an instance like programming.dev that hides political communities by default
I didn’t even realise my instance did this (I didn’t do research)
But if this is it minimised, I don’t want to see the full amount
Ignoring the world definitely makes you good global citizens and not problems to work around. Good job. Way to go.
They said “US communities”, not the world.
Can we start a thread with like blocking words, but yes blocking makes Lemmy the best
Honestly all political discussions here are so cursed. Its just people yelling. Fuck that.
That might be because you actively go around yelling at people for not supporting Israel
