But you can watch those movies and shows for free. The only part you’re paying for are the ads.

When you get deeper, 90% of the time it’s just one of a dozen “facts” they’ve adopted to service the core belief that jews are responsible for [effects of capitalism]

I don’t know if that ever comes up. The whole thing started with “There’s a huge expansive world we wrote, this is just a tiny portion of it”, and then it turned out no, they were just generating characters to appeal to the largest audience possible and then inventing the world/backstory from that.

Not intentionally, Chuck E Cheese is a ghost kitchen that sells pizza and stuff under another name.

Isn’t the whole point of federation that you don’t need multiple accounts or pay attention to multiple sites?

A virus caused killbot factories to start printing omnicidal killbots. Each country’s military was getting owned by the killbots so Overwatch was formed by soldiers from every military and some randos to shut down the factories. They suceeded, then became the world police. Robots were made to live beneath the cities and subject to “Detroit:Become Human” level discrimination. 10 years later, Overwatch was disbanded after a group betrayed them and bad press. 10 years later, some of the members came back to reform Overwatch.

I hardly think the guy who beat the nazis and raised standards of living in the USSR from borderline starvation to comparable with western Europe in a couple decades a failure. There were regular famines before Stalin; after Stalin there were none until capitalism reversed all that progress, immiserated the populace, and decreased all measurements of human development by similar numbers to WWII.

The CIA admits he wasn’t a dictator, merely representing the dictatorship of the proletariat.

It does have a utility though, buying drugs, moving money past capital controls, and creating fake revenue/losses for laundering money and tax evasion.

Does anyone know what determines what history another instance can see?

On Lemmy.ml, you can see my post-federation posts+comments, and then a single dumb comment about eels from 2 months ago, and nothing else.

He’s saying that you’ve never verified anything you’ve seen from western news on this subject, but you know they promote incomplete or outright false views in similar circumstances, so why would you uncritically accept their views on China?

“I know what the news tells me about China is true because it’s in the news all the time” is a really funny response ngl.

Are… Are popcorn makers, air fryers, convection ovens, and air coffee roasters the same thing??!

You can still make popcorn in an airfrier. You can make it in coffee roasters too.

The dashes waste space. You’ll know what 20230809 means in context.

There’s people who fight Ceaseless Discharge?

Do you also fight Yhorm without the Storm Ruler?

That wouldn’t surprise me, I’ve seen ddos’s against smaller servers over dumber things.

But given that they preemptively ban instances for not supporting NATO and the IMF and don’t preemptively ban nazi, transphobe, and pedophile instances, fuck em.

The fediverse is weaker if .world is allowed to color people’s perception of Lemmy.

LM?

How would Terry Fucking Crews wake up to some dude kissing his passed out body?

Correct, this isn’t a serious discussion, I don’t genuinely disagree with everything Kruschev did other than sending the tanks into Hungary and supporting Cuba, nor attribute everything the USSR did during that time to Kruschev; I imagine H3doubehockeysticks has more nuanced takes on the USSR and China.

I think they’re referring to Chinese support of the Khmer Rouge. Obviously they’re not the ones who engineered the coup that put Pol Pot’s faction in power (see America), but not siding with the USSR and Vietnam against them was a p big L.

OK, two things he did right.

The fallout from the sinosoviet split and destalinization can’t be overstated though.
