Literally impossible, given you have to pay for the gas of those rentals plus however long you keep them until you get back.

It’s about neocolonialism, zionism are the curtains they hide behind. Even back during WWII, Zionists literally signed the Havaara Agreement with literal Nazi Germany, and even though it was far more of a religious movement back then, it was already fairly neocolonial. As a Jew, you either agreed to basically go along with Zionists and their take on things to save some of your wealth, or you would end up losing it all, the writing on the wall was there for all to see before the war.

Right now, religion is still a factor, but they don’t mind shitting on Orthodox Jews a lot more, and there’s a lot more involvement from evangelical “Christian” US groups. It’s basically a neocolonial front using religion as an exercise in gaslighting, involving a lot of rich private interests specially from the US that use the private sector and geopolitics to survive across administrations.

Debt, global economy, trying to recolonize colonized land to supplant it with more malleable economic interests, it’s been this for a while.

It’s not allowed, but then again, I’m not in the US.

Could they remain in !asklemmy@lemmy.ml and continue to participate in !asklemmy@lemmy.world? If not, then they had to force themselves to begin posting and commenting elsewhere. For casual users, it is organic because they just go to the Active listings, but the dissection is still there. Hunting for minutiae like this and how you can redefine things into other things does not address the elephant in the room.

You already have one. It’s called your payment provider.

The Secret of Monkey Island 2 famously mocked this where you could simulate literally call the helpline in-game as the PC while lost in a jungle.

Maniac Mansion was designed to be replayed, which is why the cast of characters you picked could be different each playthrough. It also meant a lot more red herrings.

Don’t bother, some forms of propaganda are pretty blatant.

There famously have been and there has been ample news about them. Right now they are getting mocked because they could not stand up to the latest and greatest in the US military arsenal, but they also had to knock them out first and employ suitable modern stealth and electromagnetic warfare to take them down first. China is very much training up on that data, specially with the possibility of weakened US forces unable to address possible future attempts at Taiwan.

Best way to keep yourself warm is to wear a mask and keep the moisture leaking the warmth trapped. It’s funny how many people who lived through the pandemic seem to have forgotten this. They might as well be this guy in regards to getting colds.

That’s called privilege.

They also have the best of both worlds shoved together, when used in an ideal general case situation. Zero emissions for urban use, emissions limited only on the very occasional when needed, and even then if it has enough stops to call EVs viable, you are going to get a significant reduction in emissions if you plug along the way.

Plugable hybrids are a good compromise, when people remember to actually plug them in and run on electric when they don’t need to travel long distances.

You have (some of) the functionality, but the defaults suck and the way to fix it might mean a lot less people and expertise involved in the discourse

I don’t see it that way, but I do see users coming into it and having to face lower quality arguments without nuance along with trolling or having to face low interaction rates, or ridiculous beehive charades of argument chains too surreal to seem real, and just choosing to go back to the mainstream platforms instead.

The current system is flawed. This system will always carry its foundational weaknesses. Your counterexamples are examples of the dissection you have to force, never mind that it does not address the problem at the user level.

Tankie takeover? I always thought that the whole point of the anarchy instance was to try to pick up all people Russian-Chinese propaganda disguised under communist rhetoric couldn’t. It’s basically a charismatic facewash that falls back to the last wildcard of just trying to generically shit on governments because “they work against the people - but also, let’s create all the systems governments represent while just applying the stroke of its for the people somewhere”. In other words, it’s the communist mantra except rather than identifying itself as communism it just focuses on identifying governments bad while trying to promote governance but with some mental gymnastic spin.

Not sure the whole lemmy-derived fediverse hasn’t been irrevocably tainted by these cult-forming/alt-bot factory communities. You can find instances that defederate from these, the problem is you immediately get a dissected part of the community because they are the baseline founding communities and the resulting conversations have discourse hidden from you that they don’t and can freely attempt to manipulate.

Did they get their Coslop on it?

Only due to basically one reason - oligopolies.
