Not defending the OP but his argument is that here in Australia the government is doing the censoring, he’s all for platforms delisting it if they wish. As an aside, that’s effectively the same thing (as argued by people like Philip Adams here in Australia)

As an Australian, I find government censorship of the arts problematic, this case is glaringly easy to agree with but there are a plethora of edge case issues that leave me feeling uneasy and I’m squarely on the side of Karl Popper with this.

As to everyone “disliking nazis”, thats not true. Russia is led by one, as is the US and India, the current Austrian Government is led by a a political party set up by literal Nazis, across the border the AfD is praised by the US.

Look at Hannah Ardent and Albert Einstein’s letter to the newspapers about the horror of Israel. So I’d suggest there is broad support for nazis, unless u mean literal nazis from Germany circa WW2, of which there aren’t many left but we had one in charge of NATO, another designing rockets for Nasa and on and on, so there is that.

Among the most disturbing political phenomena of our times is the emergence in the newly created state of Israel of the “Freedom Party” (Tnuat Haherut), a political party closely akin in its organization, methods, political philosophy and social appeal to the Nazi and Fascist parties. It was formed out of the membership and following of the former Irgun Zvai Leumi, a terrorist, right-wing, chauvinist organization in Palestine.

Indeed, Trump ironocally doing more for the enviorment then any owtjer President was not on my bingo card. Recession, people buying less shit, less tourism etc

What a world :)

Bizzare thing, the “kid” is 31, has a previous conviction for 5 yrs, that was reduced to 3.

They said they were told only “criminals” would be deported, did they ignore their sons conviction?

In Australia that would have seen him deported when he was released from jail (anything >2 yrs) if anyone thinks my scumbag country is any better and “both sides” support that.

If you’ve been an anti-climate-change guy and your house gets destroyed by a freak super hurricane, you might reevaluate

You’d think so but no, none of the reaearch I have seen indicates that. The only thing they do remember is Government response after the fact. Most don’t rewards those who would remove or minimise the tradgedy, only how they deal with.

Thinking on that, the insanity seems to be, the path to governerance seems to be to allow shitty things to happen and then deal with them well:) Of course eventually with climate change you’ll be overwhelmed but that will be for the next guy to deal with :).

Ask Trump?

Thats mostly what happned in Australia back in the day when we tried it. Mu friends wife was a social worker, she said coercion to have babies was endemic and the money taken off the mother by the asshat father when said money arrived. Not really a lack of critical thinking per se, just desperate :(

What a debacle.

I find the actual user ENGAGEMENT significantly worse.

That’s the point though?

I don’t use Mastodon for engagement but a feed of interesting stuff across a variety of subjects posted by others. Masto is a little bit like an RSS feed, I don’t castigate RSS for that either.

Therefore I’ve come to the clear scientific and educated decision that Lemmy is simply superior

Sarcasm aside, that’s like saying a screwdriver is better then a hammer.

Could have voted Green, voted for shit lite instead, what a debacle.

There’s widespread support for this amongst voters, just witness the recent Australian election for proof of that. Where >90% of voters voted against any action. I.e didn’t Vote Green

Compound that with near zero understanding of climate change, the pervasive view is slightly warmer summers and AC is the answer and not much to worry about vs the seemingly ever more likely exestntial risk

See the link above to an article about increased coal production from Australia and the insanity of the defence of the orthodoxy.

Indded but as an Australian, if I have to have an anal probe i’d rather it from the CCP as they wont share it with my Government.

Intelligence? Talent? No, the ultra-rich got to where they are through luck and brutality.

Still super popular here in Australia

Woosh ? Thats literally the proble. thr OP referred to,he to has a Plexpass and his watchers are being notified.

Signal has worked fine for me

I think Dems need to take notice here,

Just ignore the constituition and the rule of law and get shit done ?

And the left is often paralyzed by the “complexity” of a solution and offers little no refuge for those in need

Always, because they’re not stupid, if they were, they’d be Conservatives … and the answer to complex problems are not simple. That can’t change.

Alas, with Tate etal,

It’s only because of their stupidity that they’re able to be so sure of themselves.” - Franz Kafka

"I did not mean that Conservatives are generally stupid; I meant, that stupid persons are generally Conservative. . - John Stuart Mill

Been voting for 40 years, all levels of Government, never once voted for anyone who has one. I am either the political kiss of death or, as I prefer to look at it, don’t blame me for this shit mess, i didn’t vote for it :)

Rice or pasta with cheap sauce and some grinded meat can sustain a person for quite a long time.

Another tip is to mix ground beans (just use a blender, black beans and chick peas etc) into the minced meat as well at say 50/50
