We’re not headed towards fascism. We’re already fascist. This is nothing more than silencing free speech. Just silencing a voice that said things the establishment didn’t like. It’s no different from the S.S. arresting germans who spoke jewish sympathy.

We’re not becoming fascist. We’re already there.

Meow?

I gave my input almost 3 years ago when I first joined, and I stand by it.

There should be a few general instances. These would be the big ones, where users would mostly clump. Any community would make sense here, but communities based on topics that have niche instances wouldn’t do well here, because everyone would just use the niche instances communities for those topics.

Then there would be smaller niche instances. Like I’m sure there’s SOMEONE who would join the star trek instance. Where every community is star trek themed. I don’t imagine that would be a significant percentage, but they would exist. Now, the communities would see a lot of traffic. I don’t doubt that if you consolidated all the star trek communities it would get a lot of people joining the communities. I just don’t think most people would feel the need to make that their home instance.

And star trek is just one example. You could have a sports instance. A movies instance. A tv instance. An art instance. An instance that’s just geographical locations instance. But most people would join the communities, not the instance.

That way, when people use the “local” tab, it’s a bit more diverse.

People always find it strange when I say the biggest reason for womens liberation happening is because of hitler, but it’s true.

Prior to America entering WWII, men went to work, women stayed home and did the dishes. That’s just how life was.

Then all the men needed to go overseas. But that left huge holes in the domestic workforce. Life simply couldn’t move forward without someone to stock the shelves of a grocery store, or fix cars, or drive the city bus. Work that up until then was historically men only. But…there were not enough men between 1941-1945 to fill the roles across all forms of work, but work needed to get done.

So women were brought into temporarily fill the roles until the men got back.

Then the war ends, the men come back, and suddenly the women don’t want to go back home and do dishes. So now you’ve got women back home, who want to be back at work, and men at work seeing more and more women not leaving.

And over the next decade or so, more and more women either never left the workplace, or came back to work. And then you had the homes where the men wouldn’t let their wives work. Which caused fights. And even though they were individual fights, these same fights were happening all over the country. As more women realized they aren’t alone, it became less of a fight with your husband, and more of a fight against traditional gender norms. And thus the womens liberation movement really gained traction.

And it all goes back to hitler creating the environment that allowed the whole butterfly effect to start.

And thats what you’re seeing with trump and linux.

Hitler didn’t give a damn about womens rights. But butterfly effect, he’s the biggest reason it happened.

Trump doesn’t give a damn about Linux, but here we go again.

C’mon now. One turtle seperates from the group, and you think it’s Michealangelo?

It’s clearly Rapheal. He’s in one of his brooding moods, and went off on his own tonight.

You know what this means, right?

It means you should watch the news. There’s a big breasted ticklish news reporter who loves wearing tight jumpsuits that show off cleavage who’s about to come into your life.

And watch out for any stray rhinos or warthogs. They might be trouble.

“I would like to hear how you would explain to my children what you’re supposed to be.”

The same way Lady Gaga responded when asked what she meant by disco stick.

“It’s a penis.”

You aren’t fooling ME that easily!

I know you have another two of these babies, and a rat. Now we just need to cover them in slimey ooze.

HEY! GET YOUR MIND OUT OF THE GUTTER!!! I’m talking about radioactive waste. Nothing gross like you thought…

In the words of The Ultimate Warrior…

"You ARE nothing but a normal! Now gaze as madness descends upon the universe!!! Should I stop the galactic school bus reign of terror, or should I get my head run over by a lawnmower??? This life has become completely and totally out of control!!! Raaaahhhhh snarl "

I mean…you’re being rude. The least you could do is take him home, pay all his bills, assume hismedical care, feed him, clean his poop, and generally be his slave for life!

It’s the least you could do.

And we’re SURE this is real life? Really??? THIS is real life???

…sunshine is gay? Now hold on. I thought you guys had the rainbow. Now you have photosynthesis too???

Ironically enough, if there was a symbol for straight guys, it would probably be a flag of a penis.

I am also not ok.

We’re the baddies.

I mean…also historically accurate in certain parts of the country.

his polls are truly tanking

Gee, I wonder why the pedophile warmonger who’s responsible for past and future price increases wouldn’t be popular…

Let me get this straight…trump NEVER attends these dinners. Yet now that Grindr is involved, he’s going to attend?

This sucks. I want to mock trump for his beliefs, but I don’t want to mock any actual gay people for their beliefs.

I feel like there’s a joke there somewhere that only attacks trump. C’mon guys, all the parts are there. Lets construct this thing.

Windows forcing their own propriatary software as a means to destroy competing web browsers? Is it 1997 already?

Yes, I agree. Join us over on fuck_AI

“Some of those that work forces, are the same that burn crosses”

“Ah, what a wholesome message! I like these good ol’ boys, rage against the machine!”

everyone else facepalms

There was a post here on Lemmy right around the time of the superbowl where some guy was looking to form “the right wing version of RATM”.

I’m still unclear if he’s a comedic genius, or an idiot.

I do that too sometimes when I just woke up, and I’m on the toilet, and my brain isn’t on yet.

…you are still half asleep and functionally not all there yet mentally, right?
