Eternity no celular (98% do tempo) e photon no desktop.

Não me oponho a deixar o photon como interface padrão, mas, por outro lado, penso como seria isso a longo prazo, dado que, supostamente, vem aí uma atualização da lemmy-ui que vai melhorar bastante a interface e, em qualquer momento, o photon pode parar de ser desenvolvido, visto que não é diretamente associado ao desenvolvimento do backend do lemmy em si.

Shocking

Esperado, mas triste. O paulistano médio realmente acha que o Boulos pessoalmente vai invadir e ocupar a casa dele.

Merda (literal)

Finally got around to reading this. And, yeah, as always, what I thought has always been thought of before, and better written also

Something you said that really resonated with me is, besides the experience with psychedelics, the way that people will treat you as a conspiracy theorist for deviating from the "correct" frame. I think this is a major barrier for escaping the neoliberal narrative, as it is very natural for us to try to fit in, to not be weird, to be accepted. Nobody wants, at face value, to be the loony commie and ostracised.

Ah, yes, of course. I specified western because I had in mind certain people I've seen using lemmy, as I mentioned in the OP, which, as far as I've gathered, is populated mostly by westerners.

I think it makes sense in their head that there exists a dichotomy between left and right (restricted to liberal/conservative in a very US-centric way) and that they are on the left of that spectrum. Then, being "as left as can be" is a matter of being more what they consider left, which, indeed, they are.

God, I forgot how annoying I find this phrasing they adopt, especially when you know they haven't done the least bit of reading to inform their opinions.

A bit unrelated, but this made me laugh out loud. Maybe this won't make sense to you, but there's this game called Victoria 2 (seems somewhat popular on hexbear) where the people can manifest different ideologies, and then there's the more radical equivalent for each. Like, communists for the socialists, reactionaries for the conservatives etc. They made up what they called anarcho-liberals for balance reasons, in order to make the liberals have their radical versions in-game, and your comment made me think of categorising these so-called anarcho-liberals as radlibs.

Hmmm. This is something I would call Western chauvinism, but I guess you gave it a more generalised definition.

Feel free to, but be aware that it's much smaller than hexbear and you'll have to speak Portuguese lol

Huh, maybe. I do see the tendency for them to try to dunk on "tankies" and feel good about it, though I would argue this is normal for any group of people trying to fit in with each other.

I find it silly, though, that they feel it's important and has real material impact in the world to wear the Ukrainian flag on their handles and other such shenanigans. Like they're speaking truth to power, only there's no power that represses them.

Thanks for the thoughtful comment. This is something I consider myself, seeing as I live a somewhat okay life and things like revolution and civil war would certainly destabilise that. But I don't know if most people would have this level of self awareness; at least, not on a conscious level. I think the libs you are referring to would not be able to articulate fully that the status quo benefits them and that is enough to warrant their support. No, what bothers me, I think, is that there is no such recognition, only proclamations of submission to greater ideals, such as democracy, freedom and, of course, the very recent and not nearly far-reaching enough LGBTQ rights. In this sense, I almost find fascists more tolerable, because they at least seem self aware and honest about their intentions (when talking to each other, at least).

The moral imperative of these people is always supporting NATO hegemony as global peacekeepers, so fuck other countries' interests and alliances.

Most do realise this. Most are oriented this way.

I do know most people are aware of this tactic. But I feel I also encounter people who are similar to ultras in the sense that they defy everyone, be it the US, China, Russia or whatever, but end up inadvertently (I think) focusing their attacks on opponents of the US, be they communists or not.

I think I know a lib when I see one. I am referring to people who say "Fuck the CCP, fuck the US" and truly believe in what they are saying, and then end up online attacking mostly the former out of some gullible principle.

Maybe you're right and the people I'm describing don't exist, or are so few in number as to be irrelevant. But a lib makes more sense to me than these people.

I usually "hang out" (lurk) more on hexbear than on my home instance, but the folks at lemmy.eco.br are usually cool as well

Also the logic behind "communism no iphone"

Someone pointed that out in the thread, then followed it up that the tanks were coming back from the supposed actual massacre
