Nitter is dead, right? How should I go about accessing Twitter now?

Thanks, Oppo

I haven't seen, please send link?

Just typed a post complaining about personal life, but then I clicked the wrong button and now the post is gone. No energy to type again. I don't feel well and I really need more sleep. Much work tomorrow. I wish students were allowed to take days off. Impatiently counting time towards the winter holidays cuz I really need a break.

At least I am enjoying this song by the Moranbong Band. Very beautiful singing and lyrics. (The video that I linked has subtitles in several languages.)

Listening to some beautiful patriotic music from the DPRK.

Thinking of how the west has never forgiven these people for building a life for themselves and refusing to submit to US imperialism. Sanctions are still in place. Average westerner doesn't see them as human at all. US bombing killed 20% of their population in 1950--1953. They (the west) would gladly do the same again. We all are witnessing the massacre that the US puppet is committing in Palestine. The pictures are burned into my brain now. Can't imagine what it's like to actually have to live through the horrors. While the world looks on and does nothing. They would gladly do the same to every other country that dares to oppose them. The kids from this video? US army would murder them and not even blink an eye.

I am incredibly glad the DPRK has nuclear weapons. International law is a joke. Death to America.

Sorry for incoherent rambling. I'm really bad at writing.

Thank you as well!

The search feature is quite convenient.

Thank you!

Any of the comrades on here can send me the BDS list? I saw it a while ago, but forgot to bookmark. Am too tired to sift through search engine results, which seem to have gotten way worse over the last year or two.

Picked up a magazine about "carreers in engineering" not long ago. The level of liberal brainworms in there was so unbelievable. Not going to take photos because that might dox my city, but it was basically:

• Advertising for the imperialist army
• Technology is going to save us from climate change
• You should work more than 40 hours a week (says guy who would benefit from you working more hours a week).
  • What is interesting, they ended it with a sentence like "If your work is for the benefit of society and fulfilling for yourself, it doesn't make difference how many hours it is." Which... I can't say I disagree entirely. But under this society? Lol no.

I did get some pointers I was hoping to get from there, so it wasn't totally pointless. But still, the entire time I was reading that, I was thinking "How can anyone take this seriously?"

I believe in Hamas's right to defend itself.

Tragic for the bourgeois class, perhaps.

What would be the advantage in comparison to just posting them in a news community here on Lemmy?

Have been away from Lemmygrad for a month (life was stressful), did anything noteworthy happen in the meanwhile?

Anyway, I'm back!

What's the context behind this? I've seen this same face as an emoji on Hexbear, but I don't know what the actual context is.

LMAO at all the liberals from lemmy.world already upset at this meme in the comment section, just an hour after it was posted

Cope and seethe

Reject modernity

Embrace tradition

I'm not reading through that entire article (which is just Twitter discourse in article form), but honestly, that question itself seems badly posed.

Obviously, socialists aren't going to introduce a policy like "No more bananas" or "We must have bananas at any costs". In a country where bananas don't grow, availability of bananas will depend on desire to import bananas, and another country being willing to sell you bananas. I vaguely remember something about bananas being rare in the GDR because there were few friendly countries that grew bananas (though that might have been an anti-communist source, or plain made up, I don't know, but it doesn't sound too unrealistic). Availability of bananas will depend on the circumstances you're building socialism under.

From that article:

Although he does not identify as a “degrowther,” Harris rejects the “pro-growth” left’s suggestion that the American consumer’s preferences are sacrosanct.

I have no idea what this discourse is, but this line bothers me so much. Imagine caring about "American consumer's preferences". This is so stupid. If socialism ever somehow manages to take power in the USA, they really must work on changing societal attitude. US society, its values, its ways of thought reflect the worst that capitalism and imperialism have to offer. Socialism cannot succeed if these ways of thought go unaddressed. And whatever bullshit led to "I am consoomer and I am owed banana" is one of the things that have to go.

The most important question facing the American left today.

If true, that says much more about the state of the American left than it does about the importance of the question.

I was thinking about this yesterday. Liberals believe that the land where that war is fought is Ukrainian land, right? And for sure, they should know something about how terrible the effects of depleted uranium and cluster munitions are, on civilians, long after the fighting is over? (Though I vaguely remember an article from the BBC or similar media outlet saying depleted uranium is actually not that bad, because of course that's the line these ghouls push.) So, even in the fantasy world where liberals' dream of Ukraine winning this war and taking back all the territory succeeds, the people of the country that liberals claim to support so much would STILL suffer from all the effects of those munitions.

Basically all I have seen from liberals on the matter is "But it's important that Ukraine wins!! We have no other kinds of weapons to send!". If the latter sentence is true, that's just an admission of defeat coming soon. If it's not true, they're just making the land unlivable for the sake of a temporary strategic advantage. Truly, western liberals, are willing to fight this conflict until their proxy country is entirely destroyed. All while sitting in the comfort of their own home, treating this war as just more entertainment for themselves, knowing it's not them blown to pieces by cluster munitions.
