Please speak to a counsellor, and move out of your mothers house. Mass murder almost always starts with hurting the womem in your home

if the only thing stopping you from hurting people is legality and morality you need help

I always hated everyone being so fake nice on the internet, a gentleman and a scholar type shit, when they'd call you a slur at the drop of a hat for the most part

you've got to find a community, and actively participate in order to defend it from shitheads

Three detained British activists who spent weeks refusing food have ended their hunger strike, citing a report that a United Kingdom-based subsidiary of a major Israeli weapons company was denied a UK government contract.

[...]

The Times reported on Tuesday that Elbit Systems UK, a subsidiary of the Israeli arms manufacturer of the same name, had failed to win a $2.69bn contract to help train British soldiers.

Citing an unnamed UK Ministry of Defence “insider”, the news outlet said the department instead chose to award the contract to a rival consortium led by Raytheon UK.

The liberal media in australia, a totally not zionist rag, The Age is today publishing this trash

Four options open to Trump as he looks to punish Iran
Roland Oliphant - cheif foreign analyist from The Telegraph UK

Symbolic strikes
One option for the US is a minimal strike – or series of strikes – designed only to send a message and redeem Trump’s promise to hit Iran in the event the regime started killing protesters.

A sustained bombing campaign
To force a real change in direction, stop the security forces killing protesters, or actually undermine the regime, a more sustained and more widespread bombardment would be required.

last week they were pretending to be concerned about InTeRnAtIoNaL lAw lol

They'll plan to build a big air conditioned dome over the empire, so factory farming can continue unabated while the sea levels rise, and the air is heated to 100°C, a big beautiful dome, the golden dome

When there have been big protests where I live, and i've seen people stand on a soapbox calling for 'the communists' (ie, me, but they mean the grubernment) to be killed, I stayed home

!asklemmy@lemmy.ml - ARE YOU A TANKIE? - informal poll results ~ 2025

😱

This process was undertaken to determine if so-called "tankies" are conspiring to make you (yes, you) have a bad time on the internet!

vague or informal answers were interpreted by the central authority (me). Only top level comments were counted. I did not provide further instructions or clarifications.

spoilerA ridiculous question. “Tankie” isn’t a term anyone self-identifies with, it’s mostly a term used by liberals to hurl at anyone to the left of them or anyone who agrees with western foreign policy. The survey results will be as meaningless as the term “tankie” itself.

^ wish I'd remembered to include that in the new "poll", there was a lot of confusion in the comments!

link to this same post but on lemmy.ml, because they will typically not be very nice about it, so I'm posting it here as well - because yes this is all very silly, but also it took me a couple of hours.

thanks for playing, see you next time 😎

Ciao, and of course, imperialism must be destroyed.

HEXBEAR.NET

DOES THE WORK FOR YOU!!

WE ASKED !asklemmy@lemmy.ml ARE YOU A TANKIE?

First stack of pie charts shows the yes / no split, highlights that the lemmy.ml yes responses made up less than half of the yes votes, hexbear.net and lemmygrad.ml only made up a small portion, some hexbear-ians even vote no
second and third pie charts show the yes votes, and no votes by instance respectively
third stacked pie chart shows the yes / no split by instance, overlay-ed with the total yes / no votes

only top level comments were counted
tankies are closer than they appear

this was fun, thanks for the polling idea, Kristina (I spent too long on these charts because yours looked so spiffy, I hope you specifically are impressed lol), solidarity cleaning that data up, and general reminder people only half read anything before launching into a diatribe

tl:dr yes, tankies are totally conspiring to make sure you have a bad time on lemmy.ml

specter
