lemmy.ml, hexbear, and lemmygrad users verbally fellate contemporary and historical autocratic mass-murderers they deem to be “leftists”, or "great leaders and allies to the cause", most recently being Vladimir Putin, Xi Jingping, and Kim Jong Un.
They are, in reality, bitch-made invertebrates who don’t even have the arm-strength to lift their Molotov-sippy-cups out of their premium-outdoor-brand backpacks, let alone form meaningful opinions on economics, political philosophy, or geopolitical reality.
Damn it all. They didn't disclose how I was supposed to behave during the sign up process.
The downside of anything decentralized is that only community pressure reduces scams.
Yeah it's a big trick because the ML owners are Tankie scum but they're also the lead developers and I think the own the page which recommends instances.
JFC son this is not a roast this is a fucking napalm strike, god damn.
New user checking in, did you use the two asterisks or the pound sign?
Pound, check out Markdown syntax somewhere online. There's a ton of different flavors, but most of the basics (headings/bold/italics/links/etc) are the same.
The asterisks work for italicized characters, but the c-squared(pound) sign didn't. Maybe cause we're on different instances?
Did you put a space between the pound and your text?
Thank you! I'm still used to Reddit markdown.
So I'm 100% on board with most of what you said but... What on earth does 'bitch-made' mean? It's setting off my women-hating red flags.
I googled it and scrolled down and got some garbage about a man raised by women, so I have concerns.
I agree, I don't particularly care about shitting on Putin or any other world leader, it's the thinly veiled misogyny/whatever at 'enemies' broadly with people gleefully encouraging it which makes me respond negatively
Diva, we disagree on a lot of things, and we agree on others, which makes you (genuinely) so much fun for me to see in a thread.
I just told people on another thread that (because of my trauma background) I don't feel anger very often, which means I appreciate folks like you (and conversely, maybe, Rusty here) because I see you leap straight to it with abandon.
I guess what I'm saying is, it takes all kinds to make a world, and I'm glad you're in it.
Thank you, the feeling is mutual! 😊
Bitch-made, in the literal sense, as in "of ill birth from a mangy female dog".
I have heard it used in common street language where I'm from from both men and women, gay and straight.
I appreciate your vehemence and the vigor with which you make your point, and also agree with your point. I only had issue with that particular insult because in my culture, it does initially read as misogynist. I figured I'd ask if you meant it that way because you probably didn't.
So, tankies? At first I got attracted by the leftist/communist/socialist branding of the instance, but at the time the concept of fediverse was too complex for me when I first registered there so I deleted my account. I'm glad I did, then lol, supporting Putin, Xi, Kim just because they are "the left" is like supporting Hitler just because he is "the right".
