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.

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!?

What line are you talking about? The Russian army is in ukrainian territory and needs to be kicked out, no one is talking about invading Russia.

Polestar is a subsidiary of Volvo Cars. Volvo Cars was bought by Geely in 2010, a private Holding Group owned by Li Shufu, a chinese billionaire.

Li Shufu is also the chairman of Volvo Cars.

Polestar was founded and headquartered in Sweden, so it is a swedish company but it is owned by Geely/Li Shufu.

The funding needs to stop and another main objective should be to get Netanyahu out of office and in a jail cell, otherwise he will just continue, even if sanctioned.

Fitting Russian propaganda about Europe freezing in winter

I know this is a joke, but the Nazis used eugenics as an reason for their atrocities. I don’t think blowing in the same horn is doing any good here.

Could be just tactics. Remember the uproar the first time it was said threads would federate? Suddenly they were “not ready yet”.

Now in the second go, the idea got already normalized and there are more pro-meta comments. And they will stay silent and non-intrusive at the beginning.

Zuck is really big into early adaptation (metaverse i.e.), they see potential in the fediverse and their first objective is to be part of it, then grow with it and finally take advantage of it, once the time is right.

It’s really not a good thing that some people think the fediverse is going to go up in flames as soon as meta joins. That’s obviously not going to happen and sets wrong expectations that could lead to more acceptance.

They can get the data, but they need the federation so people see their content/advertisement.

You’re welcome

Seems like I actually am!

But they were FUMING!

Fucking clickbait everywhere.

In Germany those are often called peperoni or peperoncino

Me washing $200 worth of groceries in 2023

I don’t understand why some instances keep being federated with them.

I’m supposed to be getting Linux tips from this guy?

No, this is Linus Sex Tips not Linux Tech Tips!

Opinion of one of the admins regarding hexbear, just so you guys know where they stand:

In my view, the hexbear community is actually a positive force on this platform. They are frequently abrasive, but they ultimately have the potential to contribute to what we are building here. They are extremely active and some of them are quite intelligent. But they’ve also become accustomed to a privileged position on their own walled-in platform, and they need to be reminded that their views are considered ver extreme by the average person.
