Damn skippy. Gaslighting and basic ass lying are different things. But hey, it’s trendy right now. Next, we’ll find out how he’s a malignant narcissist.
Dude posted a shill review. It’s called shilling. It’s a form of lying for profit. He likely did it to advance his career or because he was afraid not to. His employer likely encouraged the action without directly ordering it.
The point I’m driving at is that they are spouting leftist talking points but have cranked up the fervor to 11. It’s frothing at the mouth type behavior and it genuinely confuses me as to if that is a real viewpoint or a shill. I’m not making a binary snap judgment, I’m questioning if that’s even a real person and what happened to them if they are real.
Yeah. I see a surprising amount of it on Lemmy. It is behavior I’m used to seeing from the far right, Qanon, and other brainwashed vectors. I watched the Russians propagandize the right on Reddit.
These, however, are nominal leftists engaging in stark black and white thinking. I’m not sure if they’re state level shills, bots, really believe it and are brainwashed tankies, or true believers living in China or similar. Maybe it’s dumb kids being taken in by propaganda.
I imagine the pipeline for a lot of users is some variant of:
BBS/Usenet | Slashdot/SomethingAwful/Ars Technica | Digg | Reddit | Lemmy
Yeah it’s such a short moment and it hits like a train. He knows what he is, accepts it, but is scared for his son.
Don’t forget the classic: Suck off, Nazi Punks!
Middle spoon is best spoon. Most dyads will never know this joy.
You never know, it could microphotography. Not that there’s anything wrong with that.
Yes, but we need to be very careful here. Histronics are all fine and well. However, knowing all the facts as reported by the AP or Reuters is important.
The rank and file of the far right is going to be fed info about how he was arrested for domestic violence and had already been deported before.
ICE wasn’t in the courtroom and didn’t cause a scene. The judge was tipped off by a clerk that they were in the building.
We’re all very aware of the propaganda the right is fed. We need to know the facts so it doesn’t happen to us.
ICE made a scene in the courtroom?
So I can easily get pretty much all of this through kwix directly? That will work. Throw it on my Raid. My media server is badly overworked but I should be able to use any old sbc as a frontend for the archive.
Anybody know where to find an archive of this disk?
It’s all publicly available info, or was. I’ve got a Raid 5 I can throw it on, might come in handy during power outs and such.
I’ve got spare hard drives, and an old Pi and other computers around. No need to spend $189 on this when you can pretty easily DIY. The value is the prepackaged archive.
I see projects like kwix and such, but I don’t immediately see this archive or anything comparable. Haven’t looked into this before.
BTW, if you’re actually worried about the end of the world or whatever, this won’t save you. Make friends with your neighbors and communities. If you don’t have a physical trade, you need to learn one like fixing shit or growing really good weed.

I’m not saying Voice of America is a good thing. I am saying, if you’re a corporation loving far-right politician, Voice of America is a great thing and you certainly don’t shut it down.
Holy fucking shit. How incredibly ignorant. No, really mind blowingly, shooting your own foot, sticking your dick in a hornet’s nest, if the federal government was a person: this would be self-harm.
Voice of America is the main open propaganda arm of the federal government. All those US military bases all over the world broadcast this stuff. Arguably it helps trade and US corps influence foreign populations.
I’m not quite that bad but I definitely prefer green or amber on black terminals. That’s how a command line is ‘supposed’ to look because that’s what I learned on.
Wasn’t it something like Linus really likes penguins?
AP telling the same story. Looked like Reuters was, as well, at a quick glance. So I guess this is confirmed.
What a terrible thing.
What denomination, primarily, were you? Did you manage to get anyone out with you? (I was unable.)
As another poster said, Puppy Killer Barbie. I think that has a little more emotional punch.
