“You know how a popular time travel question is, if you could go back and kill Hitler, would you? People are going to be asking the same about Trump and Musk (and Vance and Thiel and a whole mess of others) if the dust ever settles.”
The dust always settles eventually.
Just that it may be radioactive dust this time
And that’s the big thing that worries me. In the last world war, even in an all-out war with no holding back, there was a limited amount of damage that could be done to the world and civilization. Today? We have enough nukes to destroy human civilization a dozen times over.
Go back and make sure everyone involved in Teapot Dome scandal actually get arrested and charged.
Teapot Dome, Business plot, Watergate, Iran-Contra, and never end reconstitution on the south.
Where can I report that my dead grandad was advocating violence on Juno beach in 1944?

Aktshually Article 20 subsection 4 of the German Basic Law gives me explicit leeway to shoot the Führer:
(4) All Germans shall have the right to resist any person seeking to abolish this constitutional order if no other remedy is available.
And on his birthday, too!
There’s no need to go around making actionable threats of violence that could be read out in a courtroom, that’s called fedposting. Try this on for size:
If the right keeps pushing, eventually someone’s probably going to feel like their back’s against the wall with no other recourse. For example, if there was, say, a national abortion ban, I wouldn’t be surprised if someone tried to kill the people responsible. Tragic, really, but that’s just the world we live in. Look, I want to do things peacefully, but if I can’t produce results that way, well, it’s not about me, it’s about what’s going to happen if other people lose confidence in my methods.
A prediction isn’t a threat. I’m allowed to speculate about other people doing stuff, aren’t I? Some historical orgs spoke that way, and their predictions could be eerily accurate.
I unsubbed from everything over there except for Working Class Calendar and Work Reform. Normies that are still normies in 2025 making me irrationally angry.
Yup. We’re in an extra normal time and people are still clutching to decorum and civility as if it matters anymore.
are there any examples of this?
Damn, I switched communities to have a local argument (and I remembered I had an account here), but after seeing how us-centric dotworld has become when the account view changed, I’m not switching back.
Fuck Trump & Musk. If I was in any position to, I would kill them myself, and if you ever are, it’s your moral obligation to, as well.
The secret service would kill you if it was Trump. I don’t think it’s a worthwhile trade, the old guy’s going to die soon anyways. His life is not worth more than yours.
Plus violence is what they want so they can really start telling the military to do things.
I agree with the sentiment though. I think they both deserve to be executed.
Trump should have been executed for treason in 2021.
Plus violence is what they want so they can really start telling the military to do things.
How long are you guys gonna keep making this argument? They will fabricate any excuse they need, unconstrained by whether or not you actually fought back.
The secret service should kill Trusk themselves if they care so much about the country.
I find it interesting that this basically never happens. The security details of these guys basically never turn against them. Not just US guys but all the dictators and brutal warlords and such. And I get that it makes sense to be quite rare, but I genuinely know of zero instances of it.
Not that I’ve done deep historical dives, but…is there any instance of a ruler’s bodyguards/security murdering them for the harm they’re causing? Cause presumably these people have others they care about that may be being harmed by the things going on.
Indira Gandhi was killed by her Sikh bodyguards because she ordered army to kill Sikh terrorists including their leader, Bhindranwale.
you shouldnt judge someone based on the instance they choose to moderate on thats just as bad as judging someone for their sexual orientation and if you want to see change you should become a lemmy world mod and be the change you want to see
The reality is that complacency is complicity. I would agree that LW mods don’t make up the instance rules, but if they are actively enforcing the rules instead of turning a blind eye then that is something that can be judged.
And this absolutely is not comparable to someone’s sexual orientation lmfao. Judging based on someone’s sexual orientation is bad. Judging someone based on the rules they enforce is 100% fair.
Inb4 of any bs that I’m advocating anything. I’m not. I’m speaking generally and I’m saying if you enforce a rule you inherently support that rule and those it defends in that context
by that logic youre saying its okay to judge police officers for their profession so you might want to rethink that and edit your comment
Reread what i wrote. I don’t judge police officers for their profession
I judge people for their actions… the rules they choose to enforce.
If someone enforces bad rules, then yes, i will judge that and i won’t rethink that.
Could be worse. Try saying anything critical about Putin to the admins of .ml. Instant ban from like, 20 different communities.
And for that matter, just politely disagree with the hive and see how fast you get Rule 1’d.
Not in anyone’s defense, but I’m pretty certain I read that .world is hosted in the Netherlands and are subject to the laws there. Suggesting harm on others is against the laws there or something.
.ml has no excuse for their authoritarian bullshit.
Yeah that’s bullshit. I have said plenty of anti Putin stuff in my instance. Same for being critical of China. I just don’t spew propaganda without context when I do.
Cool. Check the modlogs bud. Also, I said to the admins, not just in some random shithole edgelord community. One of them even refuses to answer when asked if they support Putin.
Also, I went back 8 months of your comments. Not a single opinion that goes against the hive was posted in .ml. You brought your shit to world and posted it there where it’s allowed.
Imagine that.
Here are the modlogs. You’ve never been banned on lemmy.ml:
Did I say I was?
