Finally. There you are. I’ve faced so many left-wing schmucks, I was wondering where the right-wing ones had gone.

But you’re still a schmuck. Leftists don’t want children to grow up to be vile.

Climate change will not cause human extinction. Even the worst predictions aren’t close to extinction level. There’s 8 billion of us and we have technology.

Climate change will cause bad shit to happen. It already has. But bad shit is not the same as extinction.

There’s no use arguing with Lenins2ndCat. I’ve argued with them before, and they already know they’re right despite any arguments or evidence to the contrary.

Then don’t call it communism.

If a vaguely populist leader started outright talking about supporting fascism, that would quite rightly bring to mind at least Italian Fascism if not German Nazism, and arguing that they just meant the idea of close mutual support and people being stronger together (like a fasces) would not work.

It’s neither, it’s a rhetorical “you”. Should’ve been clearer about that, sorry.

The thing about the paradox of tolerance is that the intolerance mentioned there is not regular bigotry. It’s quite specifically about a threat to the marketplace of ideas.

They often seem to blame capitalism for the fact we’re not in an impossible utopia.

If you want to kill everyone evil, start with yourself.

Yes, we want to say bitch. Bitch.

Fucking Winnie-the-Pooh-ass bitch.

Yeah, it was funny, but wouldn’t say it’s exactly useful here.

I mean, it’s pretty damn low though.

Wow, I disagree with every single word of this. You seem to be saying that it’s worth sacrificing liberal rights to attack the right (which you are falsely claiming to be fascists - fascism is a specific ideology, not just an insult for anyone on the right). But in doing so, you become worse than the right.

As a social democrat, I am willing to support and ally with democratic socialists. While we have some differences, we’re both pulling in the same direction. Your revolutionary leftism, on the other hand, is further beyond the pale for me than any liberal ideology.

If this is what your project requires to succeed, then may your project fail.

While democratic socialism is a variety of socialism, Bernie isn’t really a democratic socialist, but a social democrat. Social democracy is the left of capitalism, which is right of socialism in any form.

Before some moron turns up, Nazism is not socialism.

The raised-arm salute isn’t inherently bad, it’s bad now because the Nazis did it. And so, America using a similar salute before the Nazis doesn’t mean America was as evil as the Nazis.

It’s no different in function from any other form of demonising the outgroup. It’s slightly less bad than some because your political views can change, but it’s still a sign of politics gone wrong.

Two zs, otherwise it’d be the past tense of speze.

Somewhere that isn’t a little bitch, yeah.

Choice 2. 5 is ridiculous and more harmful to the fediverse than the worst case of EEE.

A new EU law has restrictions on gatekeepers, and using ActivityPub means they’re less likely to be deemed gatekeepers.

No, it doesn’t. The 100M is real. Musk really fucked up, Zuck took advantage of the opportunity.
