While you may find it cringe, I meant it as a courtesy to you. I’d rather not engage with you at all beyond informing you of what i just did, if it’s all the same to you. The less iterations of 100% legally pointless comment “footers” i can see spamming this comment section the better. I am grateful nobody else is doing this though. It would make it unbearable to read any comments.
This right here is what i hate the most about Lemmy. The federated nature of Lemmy makes it evident that instances are varied in opinions, regardless of what opinions instance admins or the larger groups in the instances have.
You wanna shit on the Russia bots or China bots, I’m right there with you. You wanna call out tankie rethoric, I’m all for it. But this generalized instance tribalism that’s cropping up on Lemmy is just the worst. Just indiscriminate broad stroke criticizing people of a specific instance because you hate the political opinions of a subsection of that instance. Can’t go a single day reading the news without someone going like “but yeah fuck .ml users cause they’re all super communist tankies, amirite everyone?”
You’re making Lemmy less enjoyable you know. It’s exhausting.
Romania denies any corruption, but assures the Tates pinky swear that they will come back to spend 15-20 years in jail, no problem. Our Romanian police correspondent could not provide more details as he said he had to go to the bank before closing time to make a deposit.
Dude putting a CC license on every comment is incredibly cringe just fyi.
Can they do that inside the EU though? Wouldn’t that violate the free travel of trade ? I don’t think they can. Italians are free to use Swedish VPNs, which legally have no logs they can give to Italian police anyway, among which there’s Mullvad. Italy can’t stop italians from buying swedish things. Unless it’s alcohol or tobacco, those things usually have exceptions.
But also, Mullvad accepts cryptocurrencies too. So it’s not like they have to use banks. They even take mailed in cash.
Plenty of communitites inside .ml are also filled with people who don’t participate in that, as .ml was a major reddit refugee hub. I can tell you of using .ml daily and obviously not being of the opinion China/Russia are great, the average user of .ml is not what you think it is. You just don’t see them cause they’re not out here commenting on politics.
Criticizing admins, moderators and instances or specific user behavior is also perfectly reasonable.
