Mataulipas! I guess you’re tired of that joke but I like Mexican dark humor and miss a good community here on Lemmy :( saludos!

Psst…just let him, voting for Brainworm Jr. means most likely a vote less for Trump.
I marked my rent payments to my roommate with “Cocaine and Hookers”, went on for years but his bank complained one day too.
Funny to imagine if the banks managers were actually using our money for exactly that, but marked as company expenses instead.
Survey finds that 60 firms own half of the worlds companies.
The (Rep.) speaker Mike Johnson went against the MAGAs and worked together with the Democrats to get it passed.
But I doubt they would have gotten enough votes if they didn’t bundle it with the aid for Israel and the TikTok ban.
It’s because the Republicans wouldn’t let a bill, that only supports Ukraine, pass. So this was a compromise.
Yes, don’t trust any of those you mentioned, but I disagree with Meta doing the US’ bidding.
Putin has absolutely no problem pushing his disinformation campaign through fb for example.
Zuckerberg and Musk only care about money, while TikTok is directly controlled by the Chinese government.
That being said, I wouldn’t mind Meta products and xitter being banned at all.
I think one of the Lemmy devs is German too
It all boils down to the question if we should care about people arguing in bad faith.
Carlson proved to be Putin’s mouthpiece, everything he says follows an agenda, which is, as mentioned in the article, to divide the US.
Does it matter that he and a lot of people on social media just play pretend because they want to hurt Bidens chances of reelection?
I think it should be allowed to be pointed out, even though they’re not wrong. They just don’t care about Palestinians. For Carlson at least that much is obvious.
Someone who supports Palestine and is against the US is not automatically a Tankie. But if this person at the same time makes excuses for the Russian invasion or argues that Taiwan belongs to China, then they are.
Hypocrisy (lying / arguing in bad faith) is exactly what makes the difference between a leftist and a Tankie.
Please don’t call them “the far left”. They’re just pretending, in reality they’re authoritarians defending Russia, China and Iran, while shitting on the West at every opportunity.
It’s getting worse lately with the tankies here. Seems like hexbear and lemmygrad are spilling over, not a surprise shortly before the election but I’m worried people will leave because of it.
I just think it’s better to ask if someone is a raging asshole instead of implying it from the get go.
Are you implying that Hitler should have “finished the job” in regards to the Jews?
Nothing to do with Russian interference either?
According to the special counsel investigation’s Mueller Report (officially named “Report on the Investigation into Russian Interference in the 2016 Presidential Election”),[42] the first method of Russian interference used the Internet Research Agency (IRA), a Kremlin-linked troll farm, to wage “a social media campaign that favored presidential candidate Donald J. Trump and disparaged presidential candidate Hillary Clinton”.[43] The Internet Research Agency also sought to “provoke and amplify political and social discord in the United States”.[44]
The tactic was always to also shit as much on the competition as possible. They literally hacked her emails to do so.
There is no doubt that the same thing is happening again right now.
Can Biden be criticized for his behavior? Sure! Are bad faith actors piggybacking on this situation and amplifying the “Genocide Joe”-narrative ? Absolutely.
I think you’re mixing things up a bit. LineageOS, GrapheneOS etc. are not what people refer to as “mobile Linux”, mobile Linux would be Ubuntu touch, mobian etc.
Btw. do you know about Sailfish OS?
No, but the point is your hypocrisy. I never said that lifting the sanctions is right.
But “Jesus fuck” would it never cross my mind to call the person who is ordering those atrocities in Gaza a scapegoat.
Edit: Looks like Biden didn’t lift anything.
I seem to remember sth like that was said at the beginning of the war.
Now France is talking about putting boots on the ground, multiple attacks on Crimean infrastructure already happened and Europe is getting more worried about the getting attacked as well if Putin gets his way.
I doubt anyone cares about it anymore and Putin can punch sand.
Ah, but shitting on Biden and the US at every opportunity is completely reasonable while talking bad about the guy who is actually pulling the trigger is fucking scapegoating!?
I don’t know why he put that as a literal quote. As far as I remember it was simply about the nazi symbols like the swastikas, which are illegal in Germany for good reason.
