I never considered this but I bet you’re right.

Had a guy try to sell me crack on the tram one time. I had my child and her mom with me at the time.

Another dude I know got beat down and robbed on the tram.

I live in a city notorious for violence but it seems people forget that not every mode of public transportation is safer than having your own.

Lol “that one company that’s worth millions of dollars that you remember from your teen years did just fine after they left that website and bought another company that was worth millions with a name we all recognized since our early 20’s! If they can do it, why can’t you??” You also gloss over the fact that they relied on Facebook and Twitter to get the recognition they ever got in the first place.

Come on now. Surely you understand if you’re selling wooden bowls you carve yourself or a local lawn care company and need to have the largest presence for that Facebook and twitter are virtually the only way. Sure there’s radio and building your own website but all that costs money and time. If you don’t have that you are forced to use Facebook and Twitter.

Unless you like running a business that performs poorly compared to the competitors around you, that is. That is still an option!

I hate twitter and Facebook and reddit and all that shit too its a privacy nightmare but everyone acting like you can do just fine with a business without that without having astronomical cost increases and headaches along the way is lying to themselves and everyone else around them.

I want everyone to leave too but acting like a pompous ass about it and saying “you have no excuse not to succeed without the tools others around you succeeding are using!” Isn’t the way to do it.

I’m usually not one for control but I like this and its a positive decision.

Still think they should let 18 year olds smoke again though.

Wonder if this could be a lawsuit like that dude that sued redbull for not really giving you wings.

On the website it says the data only goes back to December 2025

Would copying it in a text file not work? I mean Christ they are already skipping out on all the work they can’t even copy it?

Its like asking the kid in class to copy his homework and then handing him a pencil and paper so he can copy it for you

When’s the last time you used Kagi? I alternate between that and DDG and dude Kagi is probably the best one I have ever tried. Better than google even.

You’ve never seen any of the tankies say that it was all fabricated and that none of it ever happened? You must have missed WhatWouldKarlDo’s comment that says

"> To deny the events that unfolded at Tiananmen Square is like denying that humans have been to the moon. It’s an unfounded, in fact, disprovable conspiracy theory.

So prove it to us then. All you’re doing right now is scolding us for being insane conspiracy theorists. I’ve never seen any evidence that anything happened at tiananmen square. Reports from people who were actually there all say that there was no massacre

The US has a very long history of lying about its enemies. There are plenty of declassified CIA docs that talk about what lies to tell the media. Why is this one different?"

There’s a lot more but it is tiring scouring through all the bullshit in those .ml communities to point more of them out. they will say any deaths were radical insurgents that were illegally protesting and funded by the CIA to sow dissent. Its all crazy ass bullshit.

My country kills people all the time police brutality is rampant here and it is super fucked up that our government allows it to happen. See how easy that is, to be honest about events? No need for blaming some foreign league of armed militants, or KGB funded psyop bullshit.

“As for using Wikipedia, it’s frequently biased against socialist states, so when it’s forced even by its own biases to admit that there isn’t hard evidence of something, it’s noteworthy.”

So you’re saying when it fits the narrative you agree with its ok to use but any other time its biased and chauvinist. Makes sense.

And how do you feel about Russia? Would you move there, too? You guys defend it a lot. They say homosexuality doesn’t exist there maybe you could be the first ones! If it is such a welcoming place, make the change.

And yes I think it is absolutely, 100% both hilarious and telling that none of you live in any of those places. All capitalist countries across the board but always plans to totally move soon.

You have a lot of free time.

Its all fun and games until you grow up and realize that the last “you” from before that you don’t remember and have no affiliation with now was a serial killer or something. Two consecutive life sentences just got a whole other meaning.

Also, I guess after decades and decades of this you’d have to start doing DNA testing before having sex because - you wouldn’t remember all the offspring you have had or the cousins or whatever (this is assuming your family and everyone else is doing this same rebirth cycle thing)

And how would that work? Are you stuck with the same family forever? Count me out I don’t want to go through childhood again like that.

Imagine if you were someone like Donald Trump or Jeffery Epstein and then come back as a normal person like you are now with the same morals and belief system and then have to come to terms with that. I don’t know if I could.

Even if you don’t remember or feel that way now it was still you

I’m not perfect by any measure of the word but I do feel good about having a lot of the beliefs that I do. I know people who grew up just like I did except they drank the koolaid and turned out with some shitty beliefs.

What if you ended up like that the second time? What if you turned into a Nazi or something that would be horrible.

I agree with what one of the other commenters said though, it would be so cool to see just how much our personality and behavior is affected by external factors.

And especially interesting to see how much of it is not.

Its just so hard not to with the ones like that I get great joy out of seeing the anger and them not being able to tattle to the mods to get me banned for “imperialism” so they have no choice but to tell you to go back to reddit and call you a dork and cry about it.

I’m of course banned from their echo chamber because the cow one tried showing a chart of how there’s no hunger in North Korea and got pissed when I pointed out that the North Korean government doesn’t even provide that data publicly and that it was “not really about telling the truth” when someone picks and presents false data like that to spread a false narrative. They reported me and got me banned for “imperialism”.

It is funny too because they let you talk riiiight up until the point where you can prove them absolutely wrong with multiple sources some even from the very government they’re fan girling over and then they immediately report and ban you and delete all the comments you made.

Can’t have people seeing another narrative in my echo chamber!

So when I see them out in the wild where they can’t have complete and total control over the narrative silencing any and all proof against their ludicrous claims it is just so hard to leave it alone.

Its like “haha yeah I can share all the data and graphs I want and you can cry harder about it. Can’t delete these comments biiiiiitttttttttccccccchhhhhh”

It is childish a little I will admit that but man I just can’t stand stupid people. Especially loud stupid people. And even more stupid people that can’t let anyone else talk without silencing them and erasing all narratives that say otherwise.

They would definitely be down down for burning books I bet that’s the type of vibe I get from them all.

I’m shocked you got them to admit any deaths at all. Used to they wouldn’t do that.

I guess the mask is slowly falling off they have to admit some of the shit here and there now or else they’d lose credibility completely.

That’s a good example of the entire instance and users on it though. “Well it wasn’t in the square” lol ok, but they still murdered a bunch of people for protesting.

Its like they have a fundamental need to be “right” no matter what. “There is no Tianamen Square massacre because it didn’t happen in the square. So HA. All those murders inches away from the square were because they deserved it for illegally protesting!”

Also I think its wild that on their instance they all have their pronouns listed when China is pretty notoriously anti LGBTQ.

From Wikipedia (which I’m surprised they used as a source earlier, you try doing that on their own instance with anything that goes against their narrative and you will be perma banned for “imperialism”)

"LGBTQ venues and events have been forced to shut and LGBTQ rights activists have become subject to greater scrutiny by the country’s system of mass surveillance. The CCP increasingly considers LGBTQ advocacy the work of “foreign forces”. LGBTQ content is censored. "

They should all move to that utopia that is China but I’ll bet you all of them live in capitalist countries. (Which is fucking hilarious) Meanwhile here (which is also not a great place at all but I’m allowed to be honest about that) you can adopt kids and marry if you’re gay. Two things that are illegal in China.

Vehemently defending a country that hates you for existing has to be some form of self hate or something. Its hard to understand the logic of it.

Kisses.

Don’t worry baby, I’m not going anywhere. I’m always gonna be here for you.

Your entire instance is. Also you seem to think I’m the OP of this post? I haven’t blocked anyone except for one user and it was because of cartoon CP they posted in the self hosted community.

I think its fun watching idiots try to make sense about the world its like going to the zoo or something. Gives the federation experience some flair.

You missed the part about where he said it was one of the greatest countries on earth? What is a utopia? A utopia is an imagined community or society that possesses highly desirable or near-perfect qualities for its residents

Would being “one of the best countries on earth” not be saying its utopia like. Sure they didn’t say the exact phrase utopia they did say that North Korea is one of the best countries in the world though.

Is that dishonest? Or are you just not capable of understanding things you don’t like?

You’re an idiot who is incapable of admitting when they are wrong. And this is how all of you are over there.

Also I don’t use reddit and haven’t in over 8 years.

I know how it works because here (on this instance) you can’t just ban folks for “imperialism” when they prove you wrong you have to be forced to actually deal with it and cry.

That’s why I suggested to go back to your comfortable echo chamber where you might have an easier time not having to see different opinions. This must be a horrible experience for you out here.

I noticed in that other thread when I proved your ass wrong about the bullshit your instance spreads you didn’t have anything to say huh? I’m shocked I tell you. Shocked.

If its hard to tell a cat what to eat then put a bowl of some regular cat food out and put a bowl of the vegetarian stuff and see which one they pick. One or two days maybe they will take the vegan stuff but after that its not going to happen because their natural instincts and anatomy will prevail.

An obligate carnivore is an animal that cannot get all the nutrients it needs from plant matter and bacteria, so it requires nutrients found only in animal flesh. And veterinarians classify cats as obligate carnivores so I’m not sure why you think people are idiots for pointing that out.

I noticed you said the cat would go eat mice and bugs pretty much further reinforcing that they are carnivores and not vegan. I really hope you don’t have a cat

Humans have raised livestock for around 11000 years and most estimates place cat domestication at around 2000 with even the oldest most generous estimates placing it at 9500 so yes it is a natural part of humanity and domestication.

Animals eat other animals. Has been that way since the beginning of life.

Feeding your carnivorous animal tofu and vegetable blends with no meat ever even when medical animal doctors tell you that’s stupid and killing the animal isnt natural at all. And that’s probably only existed for about as long as the disease of social media has.

You should never force an animal to eat a diet its evolution has ruled out. The people that do this think they know best and none of them are veterinarians they are just crazy people who want to force their beliefs on all living things whether it kills them or not. Because killing the animals is super bad unless its by starvation of the nutrients their body needs and then its ok, I guess?

Also you said “and the admins sided with the idiots” when bringing this up implying that people who think cats should eat what they have always eaten are idiots and not the ones who will force their diet on any living thing, killing them be damned! Those people that would force their beliefs on living things even when it kills them are abusive idiots in my opinion and I hope their cats run away from them and go eat birds and shit to get their strength back.

There’s hiveminds and then there’s “hey evolution and modern science combined both can tell you this is a bad idea and going to kill this animal”. Pointing that out doesn’t make them a hivemind.
