- Poland says it shot down drone-like objects which violated its airspace during a Russian attack on Ukraine
- This marks the first time a member of the Nato military alliance has directly engaged Russian assets in its airspace since the Ukraine war started in 2022
- Poland’s president will soon be chairing a National Security briefing with key officials
- The Polish PM says the operation is “ongoing” and he is in contact with the Nato chief; he will also be conducting an extraordinary cabinet meeting in an hour
- The Polish military says the incident is an “unprecedented violation of Polish airspace”, an “act of aggression that posed a real threat to the safety of our citizens”
- Citizens in three regions along the border with Ukraine, including Mazowieckie where the capital Warsaw is located, have been urged to stay home and shelter
- Operations at four airports have also paused, with the country’s major air hub Chopin airport in Warsaw saying that airspace over the country has been shut
Do we know why this is? Is the ml Instance located in Russia or something? Because my God some of their views and takes are wild
Because the ml stands for Marxist-Leninist. They live in a world of communist theory where nobody but capitalist pig-dogs suffer.
With a very big emphasis on “theory”. They somehow got so consumed by their theories that they now live in a parellel reality - or they don’t actually believe what they say, I can’t tell.
I wouldn’t even say that live in a world of communist theory because a lot of their egregious takes are contrary to actual theory, Marxist-Leninist slant or not.
I’d just say they live in alternate reality land.
The ones that I’ve had any negative interaction with in regards to anything related to politics have always quoted theory at me and told me that if I just read some theory, I’d agree with them.
I honestly haven’t cared enough to see if theory actually agrees with them or if they’re like those Christian extremists who believe that the Bible says to hate minorities.
Ah I didn’t know that… That does explain a few things lol
Yeah, the creators of Lemmy are communists of some form (I don’t remember exactly), and the older instances are largely groups of like-minded people, some egregious and some not. The most intolerable of the instances have been defederated from the rest of the instances, so they can’t interact with the rest of Lemmy. ML is probably the most mild of the bunch and is largely just one of the big instances full of memes and such, but you’ll occasionally see why they use the .ml address flare up in threads.
I got banned from there for making fun of them for simping for modern Russia like it’s Marx’s ideal state or something
You confused pacifists with enemy spies. Don’t worry, it’s a common mistake among campists
They just love the taste of boot.
