“Forbidden” they’re selling the fourth Leche. It’s explicitly allowed, you lying rascal!
Oh, I can’t snooze on the couch, but you can just plop down wherever? Your house, your rules Gam-Gam, but you’re a hypocrite!
That link goofs up for me, here it is if anyone else needs it. Fascinating read, making a really good point.

Term paper on why libruls bad
Holy shit, fuck off to c/politicalmemes, you know this isn’t a shitpost.
This one in particular. Every time we see a protest in an authoritarian regime, it is excused as a CIA plot, the actual people are never acknowledged as humans fucking pissed at having a boot to their neck.
IRL, I’ve been accused as being a paid shill because I protest. Authoritarian shitheads literally cannot imagine people have different opinions from them, nor that they would take any action over it.

In the thread people are literally are calling the humans with husbands, wives, sisters, brothers, and mothers murdered for protesting “Mossad plants”.
I won’t defend Trumpian bloodthirsty colonialism. Just pointed out how people are downplaying and excusing an evil theocratic regime that terrorizes their own citizens.
Oh gods, did I downvote a comment that was mocking the thousands shot in the face for protesting agaisnt a theocratic regime? Oh, gee, thank you for cyberstalking my downvotes to correct me, it makes us all feel safer in the 'verse!

Lemmy is wild, you can say “People are defending mass murder of protesters” and someone will respond with “Oh, so you like schoolgirls getting murdered?”
No bitch. Thats a whole new sentence. Wtf are you talking about???
ITT: Whitewashing and justifying all the protester-murdering Iran did a couple months ago.
I borrowed the comment wholesale from the first link, thank the OG ycombinator masklinn for their timestampery!

And remember,
Do not fall into the trap of anthropomorphising Larry Ellison. You need to think of Larry Ellison the way you think of a lawnmower. You don’t anthropomorphize your lawnmower, the lawnmower just mows the lawn, you stick your hand in there and it’ll chop it off, the end. You don’t think ‘oh, the lawnmower hates me’ – lawnmower doesn’t give a shit about you, lawnmower can’t hate you. Don’t anthropomorphize the lawnmower. Don’t fall into that trap about Oracle. — Brian Cantrill (https://youtu.be/-zRN7XLCRhc?t=33m1s)
And
I actually think that it does a dis-service to not go to Nazi allegory because if I don’t use Nazi allegory when referring to Oracle there’s some critical understanding that I have left on the table […] in fact as I have said before I emphatically believe that if you have to explain the Nazis to someone who had never heard of World War 2 but was an Oracle customer there’s a very good chance that you would explain the Nazis in Oracle allegory. — also Brian Cantrill (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=79fvDDPaIoY&t=24m)
Will you enjoy anything our universe shows you? Are there things that bring you joy in life? Will you touch grass? What about filling the void in your heart with wonder instead of worry?
Philosophical shithead here!
A 15,000,000,000,000 bulb, of course!
But how could we know that that object illuminated by a 15,000,000,000,000 Lumen bulb is even real? For all you know, that massive object illuminated by a 15,000,000,000,000 Lumen bulb could be a fiction, a simple 15,000,000,000,000 Lumen shadow upon the wall!








“Widely debunked” is a funny way to say “I really like to downplay this”, but excluding the active genocide, China is actively yoinking and creating islands, debt trapping countries, etc
