The message is “we need a deus ex machina right about here.”

I have some very hot takes about the efficacy of the Sailor Scouts given exactly how much Tuxedo Mask does.

How much he does? He throws a flower and talks.

So now, you abandon the entire factual premise of the discussion and swerve into a moralistic declaration about the invasion being wrong.

No, I returned to the point you never debunked and attempted to distract from:

One invaded the other. One is actively acting like an imperialist power and the other is not.

You conflate opposing Russian imperialism with endorsing the Ukrainian state or NATO’s project.

You have no desire to oppose Russian imperialism because you’re an imperialist to your very core.

So we’re back where we started, only now you’ve insulted me for not supporting Russia’s invasion of Ukraine. Russia could have ended this at any time by just leaving Ukraine be.

So invading other countries is fine as long as those countries have allies supporting them, on the grounds that it’s a “proxy” war?

This is a proxy war bloodbath.

Who is Russia a proxy for?

Agreed.

One invaded the other. One is actively acting like an imperialist power and the other is not.

sigh one would, wouldn’t they?

Huh. How about that. I figured they would just to be dicks. Serves me right for not checking.

Mozilla shared this important update earlier today to make it clear to everyone that Firefox will still be a trusted web browser.

It would be trusted if that shit wasn’t in there to start with. Isn’t firefox like the big “extensions” browser? Why not make this an extension that people could download if they’re stupid enough to want it?

They’re acting like they’re Microsoft tying IE to Windows 98.

Yeah, allow implies voluntary. They’re only doing this because they’re required to. Like how Apple only offers phones with USB-C where they’re forced to. Turns out they don’t do that.

EDIT: I misjudged Apple.

You seem to be expecting sympathy from lemmy because you’re upset that reddit isn’t 4chan.

Then it is allowed to pop, costing the western world everything, all going into the pockets of the super rich, and we get to start over.

After the bailouts at the expense of the poor, of course.

Earlier this week a user posted “kill Nazis” and got a warning from Imgur saying that imgur is an inclusive platform, welcome to everyone. (which apparently includes Nazis?)

Where nazis are welcome, no one else is.

That headline just keeps getting bleaker as it goes.
