Probably best to not try to scrape the bottom of the barrel when defending authoritarians pushing lies and propaganda. Like, if you're going to go for a red herring, you could at least tone police me; that would at least be more plausible and less petty. Step your game up

What about the Lemmygrad retards trying to claim Tianamen Square didn't happen? How the hell is that reasonable or okay?

You can literally just go to .world and read some of the comments in the biggest subs, and see for yourself

So in other words, it's been taken over by right-wingers. 🤦 Wasted my time again.

I am tired of seeing constant lemmy.world garbage on my feed and I wish the admins would federate with other instances for fuck's sake.

The place is getting inundated with pro-Russia and pro-China shills and trolls because of that cretinous place.

You lazy idiots aren't about to demand anything of a young kid. Shut the fuck up, grow up, and do it yourselves.

In other words, you don't have an answer, you're defending shitty pro-Russia astroturfing and propaganda smearing.

Why do the admins tolerate this?

the notion that we all make minor sacrifices in our daily interactions in service of a “greater good” for everyone.

That's a talking point abusers and their supporters commonly use to convince victims to accept abuse and to continue to suffering.

No just society expects you to subordinate your unailenable right to defend yourself from violence, for example, but many states do, and they can and will arrest and imprison abuse victims for fighting back on those grounds.

Anyone who tells you to make sacrifices for the greater good is being immoral and should be ignored.

Greater goods do not require sacrifices.

Well, by taking that kind of stance you're enabling Russia to do whatever it wants including outright genocide against civilians, so opposing the drone attacks on those grounds is nonsensical and ill-thought-out. And irrelevant, anyway, because civilians are going to die regardless of our stances and there are bigger, more serious issues at stake. Like, you know, nuclear war and billions of citizens dying if Ukraine isn't allowed to take Putin out like they're apparently hankering for.

"Certain things are banned and that's the end of it" doesn't work on me. There's never an end. There's always gonna be a debate. And if you truly felt that way, you'd support everything possible to stop Russia because they are the ones threatening the world with nuclear annihilation, and by your stance, so are you.

You don't actually give a shit about human life with that reductive way of thinking you want us to adopt. You're hurting it far worse than some piddling drone attack on some airport.

The moment you start measuring who is right in doing a war crime and who is wrong, is the moment you cancel the concept of war crime, which instead I think is a hard lesson history thought us.

Nowhere in the history of ever is anyone doing this by unilaterally supporting Ukraine. Morality does not work like that and morality means more than that. This is exactly why we judge the morality of a situation based on its real-world circumstances, and why we reject deontology as the immoral, corrupt insanity that it is, because of how it reduces and strips any real meaning from any real situation it's applied to. This is about other people and life on this planet, not your feelings.

Those are shills and likely getting paid by Meta to come in here and shill. You all really ought to go complain to the admins of the instances allowing it, and move to instances that don't.

I wish I had the money to set up one. I'd do it and ban those scumbags on sight, and defederate with any instance that refused to regulate them.

Lol EVERYTHING we do is necessary for our survival, because of the fact that it's humans doing it.
