The “power tripping mod” problem here on lemmy is turning out to be even more pervasive, and perhaps more fundamental, than it ever was on reddit.

So you were banned by pugjesus because they got high off their own supply again.

First time, I take it?

If you don’t know what it feels like to try and save your prized In Utero cassette with a cheap BIC pen after it had been chewed up by your buddy’s car player, have you even lived?

I’m old enough to remember when owning record players was the norm, but I don’t remember anyone pirating anything - they weren’t considered expensive. Cassette piracy in the 80s and early 90s - now that I do remember.

However, it certainly was a thing. In the USSR they figured out how to do it on discarded x-rays - which, I have to admit, is the most punk thing ever.

Trump better for Iran

Yes. Trump is better for Iran. Trump’s raging incompetence is the reason why Iran is winning the war.

would have been over 8 years of a Harris presidency.

Right, right… and Obama didn’t unleash a campaign of drone terrorism on the world and Hillary Clinton wasn’t schooled in the arts of imperialist slaughter by Henry Kissinger.

Donald Trump perfectly represents what the US is and always has been… and with him in the Waffle House, you Yanks don’t get to ignore that and fall asleep like you do when one of your Dem Wall Street blow-up dolls fills your heads with smiley faces and lulls you back to sleep while they cause carnage throughout the world.

It is a perfectly fine thing to use the enemy’s words to sow disruption amongst the enemy - it’s pretty much SOP in the propaganda business.

However, depending on the audience, this should always be placed in the proper context.

Why this wasn’t done in this particular instance seems merely to confirm my (thoroughly justified) biases against these (so-called) “progressives” (ie, edgy liberals cosplaying as leftists) who would happily accept people like Carlson back into the fold as long as he hides his raging white supremacism behind appropriate liberal political decorum.

Well buddy

We’re not buddies.

Nah. JK Rowling can go take a swan dive off a cliff.

Boo fucking hoo.

He was literally a liberal strawman of an anarchist in that movie… so I’d say no.

What is PhotoGimp?

In the case of GIMP it’s an interface that makes any kind of sense. Have to admit that Inkscape is looking pretty damn good these days - even though it’s not really a replacement for Illustrator and is more a good replacement for progs like Freehand and Coreldraw.

Considering that he’s literally the world’s second-most famous purveyor of ethically-sourced video games, I’d say he will most definitely be needing that law degree at some point in the foreseeable future.

At least they bought a genocide case to the icj.

You shouldn’t fall for political grandstanding that easily.

While canada sell weapons to israel

South Africa sells everything to Israel. Quite literally.

When the ANC-regime allowed the ICJ case to go ahead, we (South Africa) were Israel’s third-most important coal supplier. Now we’re their second-most important coal-supplier.

I trust I don’t need to explain to you what that means?

Please stop being a political tourist.

South Africa? “Spiritually Palestinian”?

LOL!

a dangerous work environment,

Lol! Really?

Their own reckless driving is literally the biggest threat to them.
