Crime rates maybe go down because you’re going hyperbolic with the state monopoly on violence but also that kind of authoritarian regime often has control over the data. When you don’t care for process you generally don’t care for integrity.

Idk man, i forgot his name since i commented. Fast news cycle cuts both directions. Visuals and memes have a little bit more lasting impact. Punch nazis kid is much easier to remember.

Idk what you mean. I’d rather remember a good person. If his goal was attention then he failed utterly as the other kid got the credit

This post is the first time I’ve heard of him and I’ve seen the video and memes. At least for me you’ve done more to promote awareness of him than anyone else including spud himself.

I found some good stuff in the F2P demo/early access. Especially if you’re just looking for a few hours of fun. Every now and then you can find a release F2P title that’s not monetizing you. But without the marketing budget or polish they don’t take off in popularity.

Couldn’t agree more. To serve and protect would have been to take the scalding, not their life. If you’re an officer the standard of conduct and consequence must be higher than for the citizen.

LMAO they’re calling people fascists for acting like a fascist 🤷 not sure how that makes it meaningless.

You don’t go into law enforcement thinking you won’t be shooting someone in your career. You have to want to use force on people and abandon empathy for humans just trying to survive.

Liberals are ill-equipped and it’s antithetical to the left.

imply same hobbies or something

They’re both into the same team so probably wearing a Jersey or something for game day. Something to talk about. The situation with the spouses was also an easy ice breaker.

DON’T UNDERESTIMATE FASCISTS.

They’re as much attracted to the ideology as they are to the strongman. It gives then an escape from facing their own insecurities and failures. It might be an internal fight but they will find their next man-god.

An opposition will need pressure at that time to take notice and action

Is it so hard to hold in your mind the concept that multiple countries may be evil?

Or are you just saying one is worse than the other? If so, why even? They both need dismantling.

Should fade over time with regular oiling and washing

Actors that are externally awful are ubiquitously internally awful. For example, consider every imperialist/colonial empire that has ever existed.

I wish i had that kind of self control 😂

Yes you’re absolutely right! That could absolutely happen.

I stand by my statement.

That’s not an expansion though. That’s just what it always has been(well before lemmy or even the idea of a memes board). The only filters are who is making the posts(few actually go through the effort), post activity (engagement, reposts, votes), and how you set your feed algorithm.

Setting your algorithm to “new” was always going to yield a lot of random thoughts regardless of platform while “active” or “hot” would filter out the low engagement stuff.

Limiting to “tied to established themes” or trying to set some form of overton window on what a meme is will only inhibit creativity, overwhelm moderation(what’s even established? Does it need to derive from something on kym? Reference it? Where to even start), and push people away.

That’s about 11 packs a year starting at 18. A pack a month. That won’t kill you at 38 🤣
