American foreign politics affects almost everyone on the globe. They have military bases everywhere and the dollar still is the currency used in a lot of international trade, although that’s changing.

If they didn’t want to be scrutinized, chastised or made fun of then they shouldn’t be in the empire building business.

You can’t just run rustup or install the guix rust package because rust has its own standalone self-contained ecosystem which kinda clashes with the declarative nature of guix since it isn’t built with integration with tools outside of the rust ecosystem in mind.

I wish rust integrated more nicely with gnu and guix.

yeah the first I saw was some transphobic bullshit 👉🗑️

true, true

testing the patience lol

Thanks for the tip, I didn’t even know about your instance!

oh god I recently had a discussion with FlyingSquid, where he kept not reading before replying. Quite funny tbh. I mean I’m not holding out hope, they want to recreate reddit 2.0 after all, no wonder their moderation reflects that as well, but it’s nice to have a public record of their brainworms when they’re on display.

Pugjesus is not (officially) a mod there but I am starting to believe it’s an alt account of Rooki.

a. Yeah i hear he’s got a reputation from others as well, quite settler-brained individual. Further down he talks about antiwhite “racial prejudice” (not racism!)

b. Rooki is an instance admin right? Also a mod there so I already reached out to them.

c.i Well this is kind of a last ditch effort.

c.ii if you a better place Ill post there

d. I directly linked the comment chain first thing so people can judge for themselves. Also my ban wasn’t about pugjesus so I didn’t feel it necessary to give a detailed recounting on his views. Plus I feel like directly quoting a PoC venting about the sins of the empire, only to then dismiss them as “melodramatic” makes it, if anything, worse.

e. I mean I didn’t care enough to make this post and let the whole thing sit for over a month, I just want to there to be a public record of it.

I didnt think that the book was the issue here, it’s not racially prejudiced nor racist. But if that’s the mods views then I guess it makes sense they would ban me for it.

Racist against white people? I didn’t actually want to accuse someone of believing in anti-white racism, but if you say so…

Edit:

… about how the white working class is actually at the heart of all the world’s problems?

also thats clearly not what the book says but it talks about how the bourgeoisie enables and nourishes racism, although it critices the white working class for in turn letting themselves be enabled and serving their racist masters by carrying our their racist bidding, you know a dialectical view on the classes.

Sounds like xi is the lesser evil compared to the US presidents then… but most of what you said is untrue.

Liking leaders because of their policies and not because of who has more rizz is just completely unheard of for you is it?

Depends on the environment you want to foster. There are already lotsa places where these kinds of “debates” are had (lemmy.world for instance) but really no place where the people that are being debated about can relax and not have to be confronted with the dehumanization they already are confronted with in their daily lives.

Hexbear prioritizes the latter.

Downvotes are disabled on hexbear just fyi. One of the reason people leave a comment with stuff they disagree with. But upvoting yeah, very active userbase very actively upvoting means a lot of my feed on lemm.ee is from hexbear.

if people steer clear of our buses and trains because they’re busy doubling as psych wards and homeless shelters.

is not tame at all it dehumanizes some of societies most vulnerable. Imagine someone who has been in a psych ward or a homeless person reads this, and keep in mind both can be found posting on hexbear.

Right because this corner of the internet is so important and well-visited we gotta spend our state funds on a propaganda network, planting the seeds years in advance of it being able to germinate and fill it to the brim with emojis. Do you even know what a good bot costs nowadays? Vladimir Putin would have our heads.
