Good fucking riddance. (No offense cool innocent Russian people.)

Good. Let it stay that fucking way.

Raise your hand if you want to read the suspect's manifesto!

One doesn't have to go far to find a boot-licking class traitor who thinks if they run the rat race well enough they'll get a piece of cheese.

But to be fair to the McDonalds worker, the cash reward is designed to do just that.

That's fucking crazy. Anyone notice how AI has only made everything shittier?

No problem, just give us fewer reasons to hate the ultra rich and the systems that lift them up while pushing the rest of us down.

Fursan al-Aqsa was released in 2022

You're clearly not very well informed, because the source of the controversy here is an October 7th themed update that came out in late 2023.

Yeah, actually after taking a look at your profile, you’re not the kind of person I want taking up my mental energy.

What kind of person would that be?

"Freedom" is a concept, it's neither something unique to America nor is it reliant on any document.

You are either free to express yourself without persecution, or you are not.
The press are either free to publish without persecution, or they are not.

You see, there's this thing called the Theory of Forms. You probably wouldn't get it.

Feel free to disagree all you want with my educated opinion that Mohammad was a child rapist and a violent warmonger with delusions of grandeur.

Most people are smart enough to know that there is a difference between disagreement and censors removing posts that they simply don't like.

Until we have a voting system where 3rd parties are viable (for example. Ranked Choice Voting, Star Voting, Approval Voting, etc.), we absolutely do not benefit in any way for the existence of more parties.

Whether intentional or not, America today is a two-party system by design. If you want more choices beyond the Democrats and Republicans, you need to help us enact voting system reforms which are necessary to allow 3rd parties to exist legitimately. We aren't joking when we say that voting 3rd party is throwing your vote away; it very much is.

Before we get to the changes, we want to remind everyone that we are not a (US) free speech instance.

I've never understood this concept. There is no such thing as "(US) free speech". Threats, coercion and blackmail obviously notwithstanding, you're either free to express yourself, or you are not. Of course I understand that right of free expression isn't something that applies to many European people, and there may be pros and cons to that, but nevertheless there is no middle ground on free speech--you're either free or you aren't.

But regardless of that, this is your own private community and you're well within your rights to moderate it however the hell you want, "free speech" really doesn't come into it at all. That's one of the main benefits to federation.

Do you think Palestine sprung into existence on October 7?

No. I think most people know that Israel and Palestine were both established by the League of Nations back in the 40s post the fall of the Ottoman Empire, after which they proceeded to start fighting each other for fucking decades of pointless holy wars.

I'm not sure how that's relevant to the discussion at hand, however.

Why does every discussion of Israel being genocidal colonizers come down to an incident that happened decades after their oppression of Palestine began?

Uh, are we not currently in a thread specifically talking about an October 7th game or...?

Try out a mesh network VPN like tailscale (others are available, but i haven't tried them).

Tailscale is basically just a simple but powerful wireguard manager that does all of the work of setting up a mesh network for you, and it works amazingly well in my experience. The free account is good for I think 3 users and 100 devices on a network and has been the perfect thing to expose my home server to my various devices no matter where I am.

I like it so much after having used it for the last few months that I just spent way too much money upgrading my server... but that's another thing entirely. lol

Any support for Palestine is being called “terrorist” these days, so I’d rather make the judgment call for myself.

So what is your judgment call? Was the October 7th attack terrorism or not?

TTT was so fucking great back in the day.

These guys smell like CEOs, and we all know what happens to CEOs.

What do you mean? Why do you think I give a damn whether "most people" agree with what I'm saying or not?

Dude, he literally did BOTH of those thing 2 years ago... 🤦

The DEA was supposed to have rescheduled by now, but of course decided to slow-roll it until after the election. Now either Trump will cancel the rescheduling or take credit for it, both of which are fucking stupid ways for this to end.

Not to rub it in, but as someone who lives in a state where it has been legal for about 10 years and who also works from home, my experience couldn't be more different than yours.

I guess it just comes down to electing better people to represent your state, or moving.

Assad was a fucker who committed crimes against humanity and deserved to die. Unfortunately I don't have high hopes for whatever group of islamist fascists ends up arresting control.

(Time to find out if this is one of those subs that removes any comment even slightly critical of islam as "islamophobia"...)
