Well that’s just fine, you’re way less forgettable then I anyhow, practically infamous here. We have seen eachother in debates before, good old fashion bout’s of infighting. lol

Ohhhh, I remember you

Been gone for a while, did my peoples go tankie?

sighs, Ok, fine, if you want to do this rn, I guess we can.

Though I have no doubt it was probobly originally a word meant to slander real communism as the western world has done countless times (few ppl on lemmy would/should deny that the west has produced a shitton of bad anti-commie propoganda), I also fully agree that Authoritarianism does actually exist as much as Capitalism, Communism, and Anarchism exists based off of the actual agreed upon definition. If you take the definition of the system itself, there is no reason to conflate it with Communism. It IS a different system than real Communism, hence why that word was used as Anti-Communist Propaganda. It associates communism with a different (and very real) malignant system to make communism look bad. Sorry if this became too much of a rant, but I really just think that denying the existance of “Authoritarian” states is not a good idea. Let’s explain to people that Communism ≠ Authoritarianism instead of trying to claim that Authoritarianism doesn’t exist.

Edit: I also fully beleive that ANY government/social system can devolve into Authoritarianism if implemented incorrectly or not vigilant enough about making sure not to centralize power in a problematic way.

Are you… being sarcastic?

If so: Good one!
If not: I would not like to enguage in the infighting atm, so I bid you a lovely day,

Does it happen a lot around here though? Most of the time I think we’re mostly just critical of Capitalists and Authoritarians. Usually Socialism, real Communism, and Anarchism are not really critisized except by some .world users.

Edit: Except during a round of good ol’ Leftist Infighting.

It’s really not, until it is. I personally see it as a fallback infrastructure for redundency if Tor, VPNs, Bittorrent, etc. go dark. But other than that, no, it doesn’t really serve much of a purpose rn.

Wait, doesn’t the airpod completely mistranslate and misreprestent the thing that it heard in this format usually? Because if so, this meme is actually (accidentally?) mocking tankies.

Oohhh, does this mean we can stop putting dogs in traumatizing and potentially life threatning situations on the police force?!

Thx, I’ll check it out

I didn’t assume anything, I simply just didn’t even think about power states when using the laptop.

Correct, please send this one to the Emotional Recalibration Camp as soon as possible.

This quote has been yoinked. I need it on a shirt tbh.

You, and only you, may be forgiven. For I am feeling merciful at this time and you asked so nicely bimbimboy.

Yes, that’s why I chose the distro I chose, and why this was not a serious post were I was actually upset, I enjoy learning and reading, I just wanted to make a post about suspend bc it has made me happy. I am also aware the bios battery does nothing once it’s booted, once it’s booted the performance is the same as it has always been. So I assumed the cmos battery is dying, but not dead enough to lose settings yet.

No, it’s not different, I just use Arch and have no power menu anymore, nor did I usually close my laptop lid while I was still planning to use it. I usually just powered it down fully because it used to start very fast, but I think the laptop bios battery is dying or something, because it turns on much slower now than it did before. So finding the actual command that triggers the suspend state was so epic, because I can script and bind it now.

Niri actually ^_^

Who closes their laptop?
Edit for clarity: /j

Yep

The american leftists that continue to allow America to keep being capitalist by not acting and instead just reading the theory without doing much other than feeling better about themselves because they read a book. That is most of the American ‘Communists/Leftists’ I have interacted with
