They’re comment is wrong. But non-marxian communism exists. For example council communism.

But a Tankie is basically a Leninist/Stalinist/Maoist communist who dick rides authoritarianism.

Lemmy is not full of tankies, yours truly a communist.

And your post was free market romanticism.

Don’t forget that mods often don’t play nice with games off steam

Anti-capitalist ≠ tankie

In fact Communist ≠ tankie

Tankies are specifically defenders of Marxist-Leninist communism and their one party state rule (which is ironically not communism, it’s Stalinism which is a form of autocratic socialism)

No they permanently lost claim to “fighting the good fight” when they literally bundled their software with malware.

As a resident gen z… I’m right there with ya bud.

Moral objectivism is pretty much the argument that inevitably always ends with an authoritarian regime to “eliminate” the “unethical” people from society. Germany first, and all that.

See but you’re assuming that we agree to your axiomatic premise that there is no moral difference between the two.

We reject your premise. Prove there’s no difference.

More than half of America lives paycheck to paycheck. Vegan options are more expensive. Until you fix the economic crisis and solve poverty you really can’t enforce veganism.

This isn’t even getting into the fact that vegan options are literally nonexistent in many places.

Oh but you don’t care about that because you only care about veganism because it allows you to feel morally superior to others.

“Carnism” that’s the difference between vegans and non-vegans.

Only vegans view their diet as a lifestyle and shit on everyone else who isn’t vegan. We’re not “carnists” we don’t give a fuck really except that we hate vegans. Why? Because you lot are the pushiest, most openly judgemental, arrogant pieces of shit to walk the earth.

“have a little priest.”

You think the US cares about that? Europeans still have to defacto prove they aren’t Americans or they get taxed American taxes by their European banks.

The US does not and has not ever cared about international borders unless they benefit the US.

This is because capitalism requires infinite growth… which is literally fucking impossible so everything either grows infinitely or dies… or option three: gets so fucking big it abuses governance to prevent itself from dying while murdering it’s competition.

This is a much better write up than I expected from this comment section… you deserve at least hotdog for this effort.

Nope. Frankly a karma system would be such a terrible idea for Lemmy. We just need more mod tools, which is a downside of Lemmy being a new platform that grew really quickly.

I just knew that you could swap OS on Mac to have a Windows system, wasn’t sure if it worked the same for the iOS.

Is it at all feasible to install on an iPhone 13? If it matters the most techy thing about me is that I have a Plex server that my fiancée built for us.

That’s not objectification. That’s not reducing men to a literal object for women’s desires. It’s a false equivalence. Men are shown to be people in all of the contexts you just listed. In fact you’d be hard pressed to find a romantic comedy where the man isn’t a character in their own right. Same goes for dramas. They definitely exist but they’re a vast minority.

As a woman, who is into men, and has friends who are also into men. Everyone I know who is into men would say Hiddleston is more attractive than any of them.

When we say buff men are there for the male gaze what we’re saying is that they’re filling a male power fantasy of being the “big strong hero” archetype. You’ll also notice that all of them were depicted as being complex characters in their own right, absent of just being big and buff.

Brandon Routh is what I imagine as “chick flic” bod. He’s in shape but I wouldn’t say he’s at all “unrealistic” or idealised bodybuilder muscular. Also let’s not forget one of the world’s most popular chick flicks of all time, The Notebook, had Cage as the lead.
