Damn. Hope y’all get your instance back soon ✌️

Bruh you already built the fucking bridge just use it

Alternative title: Rep. Raskin confirms he can read

I think it should work with any instance, it’s just that Hexbear did all the legwork of drawing all the flag burning emojis 😆

Edit: Just to prove it, this one is uploaded to SDF, which as an instance has absolutely no special features.

And the syntax pulls an image from any URL, so you can host the image on any website. Doesn’t even have to be a Lemmy instance.

So you can do this on .world as long as you have a URL to the image or a version stored locally. Which I ultra-encourage everyone to do

It’s actually just me copy-pasting a small image hosted by Hexbear. I believe Hexbear does actually have some extra stuff for their users to call emojis, but what I’m doing is just copying the Markdown it generates using the ordinary embedded image syntax.

The syntax is:

Also thank you for verifying that this works 😁. I’ve just been doing it and praying it looks good.

Give it a minute…

He was able to present leftist ideas in a way that didn’t scare liberals. I’m sure lots of us on Lemmy got into leftism through Chomsky. Sucks that he sucked (so fuck him) but it is what it is 😞

Too little too late 🖕

What video of Trump could possibly be compromising for him? Like what could possibly come out to make people turn on him if they haven’t already?

Do you think you could work towards ActivityPub integration so it would be able to talk to PeerTube instances? IMO diversity is strength but cooperation is a factor in success. Hope this project goes well and is fun 😁

So what is the difference between this and PeerTube?

You do know that by taking such a stance on politics and being active about it, you’re pretty much a politician yourself?

I’m not a politician, and in that circumstance I wouldn’t be a bourgeois politician. My goal is to abolish politics.

I mean, where do you draw the line? After you burned Bernie and aoc on the stake, each for being too much of a politician, who’s next?

Everybody responsible for the genocide

Anybody who’s willing to take political responsibility in any way? Anybody who ever had a public office? You’d burn the middle management of NASA next? Or do you need to have been voted for, do you’ll just kill anybody who ever participated in some stupid school board?

No lol to the rest of those

whatever, you’re obviously unhinged and insane

True and based. It is no measure of health to be well-adjusted to a profoundly sick society.

You know that there’s someone like you left of you doing the same thing about you, right?

Good I hope so, then at least I’d die happy knowing that the masses rose up.

Please, go ahead and explain what kind of democracy you’d prefer to that one

Direct democracy within freely associated autonomous stateless groups.

how you’d get there by having a mob burning people.

Actually it would be things like a general strike, mass mobilization, counterinsurgency, etc., that would get us there. Lighting the politicians and capitalists on fire (or any other way of fucking their shit up, I’m not really attached to the method) would be one very small front for proletarians to actually fight the ongoing class war, specifically against the politicians who would be serving as bourgeois infiltrators and soothsayers. And while winning the class war is not necessary to propose and establish liberatory alternatives in the short term, it is clear that these alternatives would soon be crushed and have no chance of long term survival if we do not smash capitalism and the state.

Frankly, revolution is gonna require some level of violence. Like I even think we should keep the violence to a minimum, IMO means should resemble the ends, but the capitalists have shown every day of our lives that they’re not gonna let us change things without some level of violence; if not from us, then from them, like they do to us every waking moment.

Why don’t you get into politics to create laws against this so you can take those that are responsible to court and get them into prison then?

Because we already have laws against all this stuff, but it only applies to the working class, because it’s a bourgeois government working to preserve bourgeois interests. A new state would simply reproduce the conditions of capitalism.

That would seem a bit less unhinged than calling for a mob to burn people alive.

Well okay if you would like to brainstorm a more humane way to deal with these monsters then please go out and do that and prove me wrong. Frankly, I’m more interested in stopping them than in the “fire” part.

Ah yes, liberal democracy = democracy, just like urinal cakes = cakes 🙄

Liberal “democracy” is democracy for the Epstein class but a dictatorship for the working class, and is bar-none the biggest enemy of democracy. If you want democracy to flourish, then of course you need to fight against !

As unhinged as letting the capitalists keep genociding Palestinians, keep diddling kids, and keep destroying our species and our planet? Because that’s way the fuck worse than lighting the people who are doing and enabling all the previous things on fire.

Oh my fucking God you 🧱 wall motherfucker we don’t WANT the fucking bourgeoisie and their politicians on board, so unless you’re a billionaire or politician then this isn’t fucking about you holy fuck why are you doing defense for the fucking rich people and their goons

Liberals try not to make everything about themselves challenge: IMPOSSIBLE!
