Mean people are everywhere, and the separation of internet communication makes it easy to be cruel. Wave them off and and celebrate the folks who treat others well.
What's amusing is that I just noticed now that you're the person who gave me the benefit of the doubt and defended me earlier. I seriously did not know that when I posted this, but after you replied here I recognized the name. Cheers friend.
holy shit lol i just noticed too. i wish lemmy had a follow feature or just a little star sticker i can put to remind myself “yo this chap is fresh” ⭐️
shoutout to small community and being hella cool people 🥂
Yea, lemmy is quite mean. I simply unsubscribed to the world news and politics communities. Now, my feed is just filled with cute posts like urs'. Whenever I want to see the talked about news story of the day, I just head on to "All" under "Active".
OH ALSO! Try to block the tankie communities/servers. They're the worst in this regard.
It is kind of interesting from a historical perspective that the massacre part of Tiananmen Square didn't happen in the Square. Like most police actions from fascist states, it was squads of pigs chasing down protesters after they broke and ran and beating them to death or disappearing them when they're cut off from support.
And, of course, the crowd had to break and run. They weren't armed, and couldn't actually resist riot cops, much less the army.
Saying that he praised a genocide is very dishonest. If I claimed people in the US were forced to go to universities, where they are forcibly sterilized, beaten and indoctrinated, you wouldn't be praising atrocities if you rejected that claim and praised universities for the good they actually do for society.
