One exception to it : fascists managed to convince people who can only lose stuff to a war that it’s good for them too.

Ukraine has no nuclear weapons. Nuclear arsenal is basically meant to face nato/USA in Russia.

Ukraine invading Russia is a humiliation. But it’s not a real threat for now. Russia didn’t even declared the state of war yet.

I’ve heard that Russia can’t really use atomic bomb against Ukraine because Ukraine has no atomic bombs itself. If it did, it would spark nuclear proliferation by breaking a tabou. And China wouldn’t allow that, because they don’t want Taiwan to get the bomb.

But nato is an atomic power. Thus, atomic bombs are fair game.

A neutron reactor (Institut Laue-Langevin). The mix between 80’s concrete bunker like structure or yellow steel bars and uber high tech mirrors that reflect neutrons is amazing, as is the crudeness of the experiments that achieve the best matter probing on earth. It’s straight out of retro-futuristic sci-fi, and at the same time higher tech than many modern sci-fi will imagine in some technical areas.

Vesper. It is imo a good sci-fi movie, but a tough one. The lives of the characters are not easy, but the movie doesn’t tell you that, you discover it through details casually said by the characters. The movie itself is a post apocalyptic movie in a very original setting. It is about biotechnology instead mechanised or AI tech. It is worth it for this alone IMO. It was a great movie imo, but not one to cheer up.

Billionaires don’t care about the economy. What matters is whom owns the means of production. And in today’s age, whom owns the means of ideology production.

Being g a saint to a group of bullies is worth everything.

French constitutional court is allowing ministers to vote in the parliament if their resignation has been accepted. It’s a fun combo because it involves all 3 powers : executive, legislative and judiciary.

This simply means you’re either a liberal or a fascist.

It’s simple really : the US left is liberal, thus it is not truly the left.

What the fuck?! This shit with tiltok is one of the ugliest imperialist shit the USA pulled this century, dropping the rule of trade to the full on empire mode, and you’re talking here about whataboutism?

We have a country literally stealing a company because it’s profitable and can spread influence! And you’re here like “China bad”?

Is this the strategy? Anytime something bad from the US comes up you deflect for it to be about China I guess?

That’s quite ironic coming from the USA! Did the patriot act got amended recently or is this sheer hypocrisy?

Sure, so tankies are everywhere on lemmy, and I’m probably one apparently, but no definition will be given…

I asked you about tankies, not fascists.

Going on a witch hunt against tankies and calling tankies everyone who disagree with you is not really showing you under a good light. As you said, referring to people as tankies want only and haphazardly will make you called a fascists, because only the fascists are hunting down tankies with definitions known to them only.

Again, throughout history the leftists are the first to fight and to be hunted down by the fascists. And as a matter of fact, the fight and the hunt has started in the western world.

Sure, Russia and China are fascists countries and bad in many ways. But USA and Europe are turning fascist too. That is what concerns me. And turning fascist in order to fight Russia or China is just stupid.

And what definition of tankie is used here? I’ve been called a tankie several times on this thread and on lemmy while I discovered this word here on lemmy.

Are you concerned you might be a fascist or are you trying to disregard and disqualify me based on whtt I consider a fascist?

My point is that here there is a witch hunt against supposed tankies whyle fascists are welcome. Considering the political climate in western countries, do you think fascism or tankism will be more prevalent? Why is the fight against tankies so much more prevalent on lemmy.world then?

When people support a genocide I tend to consider them fascists. When they consider leftists to be extremist of fascist, they are usually fascist themselves. When they promote authoritarianism, intolerance, xenophobia,… When people talk about wokes or wokism, they’re usually fascists. When they support US imperialism.

Most fascists blind themselves though, and the propaganda picture anyone against the fascists as fascists.

The biggest lie to picture the left as fascist simply because they don’t support liberalism. Leftists have always been the first victims of fascism. That should give you a hint.

It’s funny how you picture this authoritarianism, and then this very thread is exactly about that : either you defederate from hexbear or you defederate from lemmy.world is the request here.

I’ve seen far far more fascists on lemmy than I’ve seen tankies BTW.

So you know maybe it’s lemmy.world that turned fascist and not lemmy.ml. Just food for thought here.

I think I’ve see two comments from tankies. Meanwhile I see fascists and radical liberals several times a week.

I’m not a tankie, and I see far more fascists than I see tankies. In fact I’ve seen maybe two tankies comments on lemmy while I see fascists several times a week.

You see, now you’re saving the people from the evil leftist propaganda.

You can block instances for yourself instead of blocking them for everyone.
