Click the “Anti-Imperialism” section.

Note the “US-NATO Conflict with Russia over Ukraine” subheading and the type of “articles” that are posted there.

One example:

Eighty years after the unprecedented crimes of the Wehrmacht and Hitlerite fascism, the ruling class is once again pursuing a massive rearmament program that breaks with all post-war restrictions and is systematically preparing Germany for a third world war—with Russia as its main target.

Note how there is zero real criticism of russia or China.

WSWS is a tankie / red fash shithole.

Don’t promote tankie sources, they don’t really care about the working class. Notice how the article excludes China (or say Cuba or Venezuela).

This is a tankie source.

I understand Kallas’ reasoning for saying what she said, but I hope really hope the EU understands that the US has to come to the logical conclusion of their decades long enablement of corruption and criminality (did Obama do anything about the financial industry oligarchs in 2008?). And that’s just the tip of the iceberg, anyone who has lived in the US (while not having a goal of immigrating there) can speak for the comical, never-ending parroting of “freedom polemics” by the locals.

You cannot rely on a society that is unfortunately dominated by criminals with significant support for crime from the local population. Nothing good can come out of such a society.

Was just going to say this.

Fascinating stuff! It’s like russia with extra steps and a gigantic amount of comical ostentatious posturing about freedoms and liberty.

Americans do love their theatrics!

Ok, I didn’t know that.

Why the hell was Israel allowed to participate? It’s not like there is any sort of ecoconomic loss from kicking Israel out.

US institute of Taco

A menace to all liberal, democratic societies that value human rights and believe in real market competition that brings down prices and forces companies to focus on the needs of their customers and workforce (so not fake American-style competition rhetoric).

Almost none of them are morons. They are all cunning, sophisticated and they spend all their time on work and their goals.

No need to underestimate them.

If anything their weaknesses lie in arrogance, ignorance (not the same thing as being stupid) and low tolerance of dealing with challenges they haven’t encountered. As things stand today, this weaknesses haven’t really caused them any problems, but that doesn’t this will always be true.

This is bullshit, meat being rarely available is not one anyone would consider “better fed”.

Not mention the Holodomor in Ukraine.

Russians are existential threat for anyone that believes in democracy, self determination and human rights.

piefed.itjust.works - IYKYK as the young folks say (I am not that old, late 30s, or perhaps that’s what I tell myself). :)

With the admin piece, maybe start a thread in Agora looking at interest from long time prominent users?

Just some thoughts…

I can’t comment on the details of its algorithm, but you do get warning badgfor spamm/trash posters. Emphasis on spammy, less so unpopular opinion.

It’s a much better and feature rich platform for both users and moderators. Piefed is definitely a lot more than a “Threadiverse client where the developers happen to not be tankies.”

User facing features:

• Multi community post comment aggregation
• User reputation system
• More granular and sophisticated user-controlled blocking and mute system

Mod/curator features

• Scheduled posting (really helpful to avoid posting ~3 links within 15 min in a community)

The developers are also a lot more responsive and proactive. I’ve had several minor features implemented following requests.

“fucking pathetic pussy bitch coward” seems like a very fitting description for Elmo.

Corrupt GLP-1 addicted motherfuckers!

I used to always defend the US (even before 2014) on pragmatic grounds and due to the history of the 20th century. Americans tend to be slow, but they eventually do the right thing. They’ve done a lot of bad, but unlike russia and China they’ve also had genuine successes in their foreign policy such as promoting long-term democracy and freedom in Germany, Japan, Poland, the Baltic nations.

After they recognize russia’s annextion of Crimea, Lugansk and Donetsk oblasts, they are de facto on par with Nicaragua, Cuba or North Korea as far as I am concerned.

And this is not merely a matter of far right Americans, the American centre-right (both party elites and the vast majority of their supporters, albeit not all) is very much responsible too. Vast majority of centre-right Americans (I’ve lived there for several, and I have close centre-right friends) are too well off to support true anti-corruption measures, the type that would take down many of the oligarchs that are the nexus of chauvinistic propaganda and corruption that enabled Trump. One example from my time in the US was Obama deciding to completely avoid any anti-crime measures in the financial industry in 2008 (a unique, historical opportunity).

Support for russian genocidal imperialism shouldn’t be an issue?

I used to live in the US and I have good friends in both centre-right and far right camps.

The far right ones will come to their senses, I know it, they are not bad people (and they weren’t far right before) and eventually things will get to a point where they’ll find it impossible to back the current US oligarch regime.

But in the meantime, I have to say it is very annoying to keep hearing “I don’t like/support that Trump did [X], but …”.
