Super Mario 64 on my switch. Reminds me of great childhood memories.

There’s only one answer in my mind…

Damn! I commented the same thing before scrolling through the comments…

Nice Cage and John Travolta in Face Off.

I have the same approach of browsing all and blocking what I don’t want as I come across it. Which in my case, happens to be mostly anime and shitposting communities.

Who all is arguing in support of Left-Wing extremism? Other than select instances, most users on lemmy do not by any means support tankies. I for one can’t stand them.

They can be just as out of touch with reality as a MAGA extremist, but to say both sides are the same is blatantly false. Far-Right extremism is spreading across the globe and it threatens and takes lives and destroys family systems.

Allow me to enlighten you by illustrating how both sides are absolutely not the same

Some highlights:

There is a stark difference in the means with which the two groups engage in acts of extremism. In a study evaluating Left-Wing and Right-Wing domestic extremism between 1994 and 2020, there was one fatality as the result of Left-Wing extremism, versus 329 fatalities resulting from Far Right extremism in that 25 year period. [5]

The Far-Right movement is the oldest and most deadly form of domestic terrorism in the United States, and The Anti-Defamation League Center on Extremism found that the Far-Right is responsible for 98% of extremist murders in the U.S. [24] Furthermore, for nearly every year since 2011, Far-Right terrorist attacks/plots have accounted for over half of all terror attacks/plots in the United States. [21]

In the U.S., Right-Wing extremism was responsible for two-thirds of all failed, foiled, or successful terror attacks in 2019, and was responsible for 90% of attacks in the first half of 2020 alone. [21] Since 2013, Far-Right extremism has been responsible for more terror attacks/plots than the Left-Wing, ethnonationalism, or religiously motivated attacks/plots. [21]

I hadn’t noticed until the posts were weeks old, so I didn’t want to dig thru the mod log…

i don’t know why they “trust me” dumb fucks

Real quote from Mark Fuckerburg.

yea so if you ever need info about anyone at harvard just ask i have over 4000 emails, pictures, addresses, sns

That’s precisely why I left L.W. They also were removing community posts voicing opposition to threads federation. I witnessed it firsthand, where posts I commented in (and in which the majority of comments opposed it) were removed.

Now they removed the piracy communities again after promising not to. They are straight up untrustworthy and don’t care about what their users actually want.

I am happy on feddit.de. They are defederated from Threads and the tankie instances.

Yeah lemmy.ml has gotten worse with tankies, but it’s no where near as bad as the others. And I still want to see some lemmy.ml communities (tech, gaming).

But unless it’s changed with some of the recent updates, blocking instances as a user (on lemmy) only blocks posts from the instance but still allows interaction with their users in comments of posts. It’s different for kbin and mastodon.

I don’t want the annoyance of arguing with tankies from their main instances. I’d rather be defederated.

Also, why go back to lemm.ee and do that when I don’t need to on feddit.de? That seems kind of silly in the first place.

I’m happy on feddit.de, as they are really only defederated from the tankies and Threads.

I left L.W when they federated with Threads and tried lemm.ee, but dealing with the tankies is so annoying I had to find another new home and settled for feddit.de.

You’ve gotta block the communities yourself. I feel your pain, but what you’re requesting isn’t going to happen.

Every time I come across an anime community, I block it. But there are so many that keep popping up…

My block list is filled with so many anime, furry, and shitposting communities. It’s a bit annoying and an uphill battle, but you’ve got to go to their communities and block them individually (but also block the anime instances).

I really don’t lie. Unless it’s for safety or a white lie not to hurt someone’s feelings, I don’t feel the need to stoop to lying.

I accept my faults and I’ll admit wrongdoing before I lie. I’m not concerned with what other people think of me, so I speak my truth even if it will drive others away from me. If that happens, they aren’t the kind of people I want to associate with anyway.

I value honesty, authenticity, and empathy and hold myself strictly to the standards I’ve set in my mind and personal philosophy.

I don’t lie or say anything on the internet that I wouldn’t say in real life. I can’t personally comprehend the point or drive to lie on the internet. I’d rather focus effort on self-actualization rather than make-believe.

He hasn’t fought a single pro boxer in his weight class.

He’s fought outside his weight class and he’s boxed fighters who were not boxers.

He has not had a single honest professional boxing match.

His fight with Mike Tyson is the going to be the closest he’s come, but it’s still absolutely ridiculous given the 30 year age gap and the fact that Mike Tyson has been retired.

Jake piece of shit Paul has definitely trained hard and has a proficiency in boxing, but he hasn’t come close to putting that to the test fighting active pros in his weight class.

Until he does so, he’s just a joke.

I hope he gets torn apart by Mike Tyson, but I think the fight is total absurdity.

This will be the first time he actually fights a pro boxer, but he of course was too much of a punk to fight a current pro.

Despite Mike’s age, I don’t know if punk ass Jake Paul will have an answer for Iron Mike’s head movement and fury.

I worry that Mike Tyson might gas out and that Jake bitch ass Paul could take the victory simply due to the 30 year age gap.

If he wants to be a real boxer, he should be fighting a current pro in his weight class. He’s a fucking clown.

Mike Tyson’s training footage. He’s still a monster…

Sort your comments by controversial and take your pick.

You’re an edgelord with insensitive comments including antisemitism and racism. I’d venture to guess it probably had something to do with that.

There’s always a choice. Our politicians are just too invested in Isreal’s military as a middle-eastern ally.

But Isreal has really demonstrated how self-serving and nationalist they are, and I don’t think they can be relied upon in a call to action as an ally.

I wish our leaders would show more of a backbone against Isreal, and withdraw all support for them.

The first game with a female main character that I played was ONI. Absolutely love that game. Still the best gun-fu game ever made imo.

Also pretty wild that Rockstar and Bungie teamed up to bring it to PS2.

I can’t tell if you’re trolling or choking on the red pill…
