Already putting that brand new NATO membership to use I see

Hey EU citizen here. Our governments are absolutely authoritarian and we are very much being oppressed. We strike all the time to try to get the government to give us some crumbs, but not only do they refuse to listen, they also send the police in armoured gear to beat us up.

This is not the model you want in the USA, believe me. Maybe they present it to you in your media as some kind of paradise but that's very far from the truth, they probably say that to lead you away from a real revolution that would be disastrous for your oligarchy.

I think it originally referred to the people supporting the droning of civilians in the middle east in guise of "fighting terrorism". Nowadays it refers to liberals who blindly support everything NATO and their allies are doing.

I've never been as ashamed of being a dev than after I joined the lemmyverse and kept reading this kind of takes from programming.dev.

We need to force devs to have more human contact.

If a “transitionary period” takes more than a decade at what point do we say “they aren’t transitioning” and call it what it is, state owned capitalism.

I mean, how could we know how much time is needed for the transition? It has never happened yet, we're still experimenting.

Stalin died 70 years ago, there is no Stalinist ML bubble.

It's hard to tell without motion but he's actually passionately stroking his braid.

Funny you would say that, because by calling for the left to neuter its ability to liberate the working class, you're no better than the capitalists and fascists you don't even claim to be against.

The actual leftists will not sit down and let the bourgeoisie continue to oppress people just because it's "authoritarian" to stop them. I really wonder what you think the left is. If you want a hint, it's not Hillary Clinton.

Capitalism is the antithesis of leftism. Oppressing the bigots and capitalists is the essence of leftism.

Hexbear is a higly politicised instance, it makes sense that people from there are mainly interested in politics and would mostly interact with those posts.

Ooh interesting, how do you call those:

Can you explain the relevance?
