Zum einen ist ihre macht auf Landesebene sehr eingeschränkt. Zum anderen befürchte ich, dass wenn sie weiterhin in der Opposition sitzen können und auf die Regierung hetzen können, dass sie in der Zukunft noch stärker werden können und eine Regierung ohne sie unmöglich wird. Vor einer Bundesregierung geführt von der AfD habe ich persönlich deutlich mehr angst.
Nice, I used "I don't care about cookies" for a while which just accepted or hid the pop-up and then blocked tracking locally. They got bought out by some corpo tho so I stopped using them.
Die Wahl in Frankreich ist nicht so eindeutig ausgegangen wie du denkst. Die Rassamblement Nationale hat 37% der stimmen erzielt und damit haben sie mehr stimmen als jede andere Partei. Nur weil die Ensemble von Macron mit den Sozialisten zusammengearbeitet haben, und der Schwächere Kandidat dieser Faktionen sich zurückgezogen hat wenn die RN stärkste Kraft war und Wahlgebiete mit relativer Mehrheit gewonnen werden fiel der Rechtsruck durch die RN aus.
Es lag nicht an den Wählern,sondeern an der Zusammenarbeit zwischen ENS und NFP. Repräsentativ zu den Wahlen der Bürger ist dieses Ergebnis jedoch nicht.
Honestly germans seem to love to dunk on their own infrastructure. Pedestrian, bicycle and public transport infrastructure truly is on another level compared to the US. Why this is the case? I believe its because cities where already in place when the car was invented. In the US they were built for the car as a mode of transport when European cities where built in a way that was a lot more pedestrian friendly.
While the punctuality of DB (German railway operator is a mess) local regional trains can be pretty consistent and overall cities have a well built out priority, since we had to accommodate for so many peoples transport withoutbeingg able to built them as car friendly since the urban centers where already built. while the funding somewhat lacks today, this made public transport also an important thing people look out for.
Bicycle infrastructure can also be hit or miss depending in the region, but generally it is also on the radar of planners and there's plenty of routes, although they're nothing like the Netherlands.
Germans also really like shitting on their own country and being really critical which comes with its own upsides and downsides. For rural areas the car is definitely really important for getting around tho
I think its mostly that the other side is just so much More radical. I still refuse to believe half the americans would vote for Trump again after all that has happened
It will definetly hinder its growth. I hope the ml instance just gets mostly irrelevant when instances that allow for more free speech can grow accordingly. They might create a stronger cesspool of likemineded tankies but it hurts the overall platform
I haven't used lemmy up until this point. They pose as a general purpose instance and are the 2nd largest lemmy instance at that. I knew the lemmy devs had their preferences but I didn't know they would let it effect their moderating so strongly.
This is a sad but hilarious read at the same time. Ml just digging their own grave to irrelevance. Also, what banning argument is "horseshoe theory". They say it like its a completely invalid disgusting thing. They might just not wanna be associated with the right but the autocratic tendencies are the same!
Got banned from ml and made a meme about it. Thought you guys might appreciate.
Since I was curious I checked the actual amount of upvotes and downvotes of my post on mbin. It got 56 upvotes and 66 downvotes according to them since I was curious. Seems I hurt their little ego when I mentioned blocking their instance.
Ah I see. Good thing someone continued it tho!
They banned me recently since I was writing a comment talking about how many "memes" on [email protected] are oftentimes not even memes and just unfunny pushing communist agenda and how I was thinking about blocking the instance. It got a bit too many upvotes from them and I ended up getting banned. So in response I made this meme and posted it to [email protected]
What happened to Kbin btw? I used to be on there since the start but the page has been broken since a while for me
Let me give you one example: Yvon Chouinard, the founder of Patagonia. He gave the company away to a non-profit 2022 making him no longer a billionaire. Patagonia gives 1% of its total sales to environmental groups and he started the company himself by selling hand-forged mountain climbing gear. Just because people don't make the negative headlines doesn't mean generalizing is a good idea, even if such high positions are more likely to have people with sociopathic tendencies as ruthlessness in business is often rewarded.
There is no defending this but let's not pretend they are some homogeneous group!
I'd have went to the police if the school didn't do shit or threaten with lawyers. I'd escalate all my options since this shit is not going down with me
But this is the US... and its kind of a double standard if you're not arrested for drawing but for generating it.
Got banned after commenting how sick I am of seeing those type of "memes" on ml
For more context: I already had the communism and lefty communites blocked. I'd consider myself middle-left of the political spectrum but personally don't believe in some grand revolution saving us all. Most left communities on here seem to far out there for my personal taste at least. My comment is deleted but if you wanna see the post here's the link.
