There is no perfect system, textbook wonderland communism has lots of flaws too. In my ideal world it should be a mix of everything. Communal gardens or hobby workshops are great, communal workplaces not so much. I mean, people should be allowed to get rich if they can do it without abusing others. You should be able to start and grow your company, and get paid for it accordingly.

Wanting all of that but without the authoritarian bit should be called something else. I’m from a country which was occupied by communists (collective ownership was a thing) and it sucked big time.

Except that they take shit very seriously at airports. Try jokingly saying that you’ve got a bomb while they’re checking your luggage, they’ll take you away for a few hours.

So Palestine is now supported by russia, Syria, Iran, China, all the greatest and most fair countries in the world.

People who think that eradication of Israel is worse.

Tankies support russian or Chinese versions of communism, which really isn’t communism at all.

I’ve got four different countries, with different languages and currencies, within a four hour drive from my house. I only drive if the road trip is the goal.

It’s revenue, not profit. “X, formerly Twitter” still gets paid by advertisers, even if the amount is much lower than it used to be.

Hamas intentionally uses civilian buildings and schools as ammo warehouses. Israel aims for the ammunition and ignores the civilian casualties. Neither side wants to avoid civilian deaths in Gaza.

You can watch videos posted by Hamas themselves. There was a lot of rape and beheading, they’re proud of it.

I used to be the one to initiate meet-ups and parties, like pretty much every weekend with different friends. Then I kind of stopped and they all just disappeared, haven’t heard a word from any of them for over a year.

They’re all in the same city, still no kids or any other big commitments, but they just never message me.

In my country electric scooters are classified as bicycles, so they must use bicycle lane if one is available. To clarify, E-scooters like not like electric Vespa or something. Their top speed must be limited to 25 km/h.

“Russian” peacekeeping involves all of that, always did.

Huh indeed, I’m pretty sure I come from lemmy.world and I’m not a vatnik or nazi.

The autumn has finally started, so it’s raining and the sky is grey. Bar season has begun, so it’s not too bad.

Lemmygrad is full of not very nice people. You guys should stay off this evil gay western internet thing.

Yes, it’s mostly the ones where the trip is very short, like under an hour. Also the ones where the car deck is open.

I don’t have enough stamina to swim a whole kilometre.

You are a great example.

Mulled wine is everywhere during Christmas season in Europe.
