Except they have the largest nuclear arsenal and the world biggest navy. They can’t be ignored.

Reports out of Tehran, military commanders could not stop laughing for long enough to mount a serious retaliation.

I hope those things end up some where people will appreciate them. Knowing the republicans they’ll probably sabotage every vehicle out of spite.

Why would you post such an obvious and easily verifiably false statement.

I only use reddit anymore for the meta. It’s like a zoo. Its users are scarcely self-aware. I know this is conceited but whatever.

I think lemmy being a reddit clone is rather ill-fated but at least for now people generally still post like real human beings. There’s something strange about how dialog is basically an algorithm. Reddit is reached some sort of maximum where nothing you can possibly say will deviate the flow of comment sections from the pre-defined talking points. It’s like they’re all stuck in neurotic thought cycles.

There’s a video with Trevor Noah and John Stewart where they talk about how social media is a performance. It’s not a “town square” or whatever. It’s not really honest in good faith dialog.
