Die Linke ist seit Jahrzehnten wegen ihrer Außenpolitik komplett unwählbar.

Nicht nur das: Um den Export deutscher Waffen an die Ukraine zu verhindern, ist der Linkenchef Jan van Aken jetzt sogar bereit, gemeinsam mit der rechtsextremen AfD abzustimmen. Gegen etwas mit der AfD zu stimmen, sei schließlich nicht das Gleiche, wie mit der AfD für etwas zu stimmen, beteuert er in einem Videointerview.

Mit der Brandmauer zur AfD, die die Linke von den anderen Parteien richtigerweise eingefordert hat, scheint man es für den eigenen unbedingten Pazifismus nicht mehr so genau zu nehmen. Auch ohne Sahra Wagenknecht regiert bei der Linkspartei der altbekannte, ideologische Pazifismus um jeden Preis. Dieser brachte die Linken nicht nur heute, sondern auch schon im Kosovokrieg 1999 dazu, sich auf die Seite des Aggressors Slobodan Milošević zu stellen und den von Apartheid, Vertreibung und Massakern betroffenen Kosovoalbanern die militärische Unterstützung zu verweigern.

War billiger als elfjährige Mädchen.

After their recent Nazi symbolism affair I'm not really feeling like spending any money there.

They knowingly used runes associated with Nazism in a promotional newsletter in a manner that only Nazis are using them - and they knew they were doing this, because this e-mail was deliberately not sent to users who had set their account to German; this kind of thing is illegal in Germany. If you had set your account to English, you still received the mail, even if you were in Germany. What followed was a dishonest non-apology, while the developer of the game they were promoting was utterly befuddled why gog had done this to their title.

Because you know they'll always work. Linking directly to posts on various pages comes with the risk of directing people to dead or altered content.

They are more of a thing in Asia, as well as in developing countries around the world where ownership of PC hardware is prohibitively expensive, not just due to lower incomes, but also because computer hardware is costlier and more difficult to get there than in the developed world.

Spotify competitor. Pretty decent in my experience, although it's been years since I last used it.

Thanks for taking the time to write this in-depth reply!

The disadvantage is that this is the first time I've heard of Friendica (and I usually hear about these kinds of things much earlier).

Which in turn creates a job market that gives employers maximum power.

They don't actually care if it makes employees more productive. What matters is that they can pretend it does and use this as a pretext to demand more work from them.

Are you this abrasive in the real world as well or just online?

Boycotts are by definition non-violent. You can't just use an outdated definition or make up your own if you want people to understand what you're trying to communicate. Just say riot, uprising or revolt instead.
