Every tweet you scroll past counts as a read tweet. That probably cuts down the number you can actually read by quite a lot.

God damn, apparently they came out with six nee wifis while I wasn’t paying attention.

It’s like the bible but if the apostles were all hot beefcakes and instead of duping fish or whatever jesus decided to use his psychic powers for galactic genocide.

Eh, at least something good came of it. I was really hoping the nazis would kill eachother for a change (azov excluded), but that’s life for you I guess.

I feep bad for the 19 year old who got dragged along by his dad, but honestly as an endeavor it was kind of begging for a disaster to happen. Like if you go back and look at interviews from a while ago the guy is talking about how bullshit the safety regulations are and how hes not going to follow them because thats what innovation is all about.

We’re not talking about Saudi Arabia and Yemen, we’re talking about Ukraine.

I’m all for Ukraine fighting this war… on their own.

So you’re in favor of them being conquered and ethnically clensed. That’s what happens without material support from western powers.

I just don’t appreciate seeing our people impoverished and neglected because of it.

The American people were impoverished and neglected before the war in Ukraine, and they will be after. Letting Russia wipe out a vulnerable ethic group won’t get you free healthcare.

Regardless, we could fund a universal healthcare system half a dozen different ways, and the American people would still save money not having to pay subsidies. The idea that it’s a hard thing to fund in the richest country in the world is one of the biggest lies i government. The reason we don’t have one isnt because we can’t come up with the funds, it’s that your politicians hate you and love pharma money.

Warmongers being… the country currently undergoing a genocide from a global superpower? If you come to my home and shoot my kid, I’m not a warmonger for returning fire.

And the idea that the reason our programs at home are underfunded is a result of foreign aid is complete bullshit. They could fund those programs in a heartbeat at any time with or without a war. We could absolutely do both, the reason we don’t is because none of your politicians give a shit about you, unrelated to what’s going on in the world.

A real lemmy app would be a godsend. Jerboa is alright but it’s missing tons of features. The Sync guy makes a fantastic app.

I’m not one of these guys masturbating over my dream revolution or anything, but armed minorities are harder to oppress, and are less tempting targets for individual or group violence.

I’m a queer guy in Portland. There are violent extremists in my town who want to kill me, and are organizing and rallying. I’ve seen them in the streets, and they’ve attacked people and places I care about because they know that the left wing is broadly non-violent, and that cops are on their side.

Looking at the political climate in the US, I don’t think it’s too unreasonable of a reaction to buy a gun and learn to defend yourself, just in case.

Amen. I don’t like guns, I don’t feel comfortable around them, but if those fucking lunatics get them I guess I have to have them too.
