The israel flag in the name of the guy really hits. Do they need to use the EXACT playbook of the fascists around the world? A couple of years ago I would have suspected satire but satire died some time ago, sadly.

My friend usess this argument all the time and it's so annoying... Why should the wealthy suffer for destroying the environment when you also drive a car....

[–] Duamerthrax@lemmy.world 47 points 1 week ago (6 children)

Your friend is a cuck for the rich.

[–] kozy138@lemm.ee 2 points 6 days ago

Probably, like most men his age.

Is your friend very wealthy?

[–] kozy138@lemm.ee 2 points 6 days ago

On a global scale, yeah, probably top 10%

Locally, not really. Just the average American income.

[–] WanderingThoughts@europe.pub 6 points 1 week ago

Because the majority of the population always tries to copy the rich. Eating lavish meals with lots of meat was the norm in high society so now it's what everybody wants for dinner. A large manicured lawn was a show of wealth and thus everybody now wants their patch of well maintained grass, even in a desert. Flying and vacations on the other side of the planet was for the jet set so now everybody gets in economy class for holiday. Trickle down is also for habits, life style and consumption. They are the example to follow and should behave like it. It's the old concept of noblesse oblige.

Twitter is full of nazis, we don't need to keep seeing screenshots of genocide enthusiasts to know that.

Everytime someone posts a twitter screenshot, you're just feeding the trolls. Because someone had to keep using their Twitter account to take the screenshot.

According to this Lemmy user Mastodon systematically removes their anti-genocide posts https://lemmy.world/post/30798872.

Explains why I barely see any anti-genocide content on Mastodon whenever I visit it.

People need to stop thinking that twitter is more credible than 4chan. We need to start trolling reporters with this comparison if any of us ever get the chance.

Diesel is sailboat engine are generally very efficient. Most the time she probably spends sailing, but if the wind isn’t strong enough or in the wrong direction you don’t really have another option.

What's it like being sail?

[–] topherclay@lemmy.world 14 points 6 days ago

It'sail good man, just go with the flow.

Aren’t you legally required to have some kind of backup propulsion source anyway?

[–] Valmond@lemmy.world 2 points 6 days ago

You want to rely on motor in really bad weather, or when you get stranded in the middle of nowhere with no wind.

[–] Ilovethebomb@lemm.ee 9 points 1 week ago

You do to sail into some ports, for example, but there are a lot of sailing vessels that are pure sail.

[–] Lv_InSaNe_vL@lemmy.world 7 points 1 week ago

I'm sure this varies widely by jurisdiction, but at least in my part of the states no. I just have a (smaller) sailboat and my "backup" is just ors and the coast guard haha

Beat me to it. If the sails aren't up you just drift if you're not under motor. If there's not enough or too much or the wind is in the wrong direction then you don't have any choice.

[–] conditional_soup@lemm.ee 68 points 1 week ago (3 children)

Ah ha, I have pointed out a minor hypocrisy, your entire existence is invalid!

Everyone is a hypocrite. It's pointless to point out hypocrisy for its own sake.

[–] SatansMaggotyCumFart@lemmy.world 13 points 1 week ago (1 children)

The other day you said that no one is a hypocrite so what am I supposed to believe now?

[–] conditional_soup@lemm.ee 31 points 1 week ago (6 children)

Oh, that doesn't sound like me. I've literally never been wrong about anything or changed my mind about anything ever.

Only the absolutely perfect can be the enemy of the genocidal apocalypse cult. There are only two lebels of morqlity and no such thing as structural forces.

Doesn't even matter: https://x.com/brianoflondon

Brian got 2.1M views, Bashar got 1M and boosted Brian. Brian won the engagement game.

This is why Twitter should burn to the ground.

indigenous rights activist

Decolonizer

Zionist

Woo lad, the gymnastics of this guy put the Olympics to shame

[–] carotte@lemmy.blahaj.zone 15 points 1 week ago

this guy bases his """decolonial""" beliefs not on meaningful connections to the land like actual indigenous rights activists, but on blood and soil rhetoric

he’s as much of a decolonizer as far-right europeans who want to expel all immigrants

[–] puchaczyk@lemmy.blahaj.zone 8 points 1 week ago

He's only a Zionist. All other tittles are there just to make people doubt by association that being Zionist is wrong.

[–] geneva_convenience@lemmy.ml 19 points 1 week ago* (last edited 1 week ago) (1 children)

Engagement are fake statistics. Look at the likes and retweets. Bashar is ratio'ing the Zionist 10x.

Reminds me about what they used to say about Al Gore on Fox "News". They said he takes private jets. It's a bad faith argument because those people then go on to deny climate change. Also he's a former vice president, I'm sure security reasons are part of that decision. Also if those private jets allow him to be more productive in fighting climate change the net benefit of him using it may exceed the additional carbon generated by the jets.

Greta actually follows this priciple pretty well and does not fly unless absolutely necessary. In this case she is taking a boat which is one of the most efficient ways of transporting goods such as humanitarian aid.

[–] Initiateofthevoid@lemmy.dbzer0.com 15 points 1 week ago (1 children)

Minor addition - in this case, it's literally the only possible delivery mechanism. Any other mode of transportation is functionally impossible.

[–] geneva_convenience@lemmy.ml 2 points 6 days ago

Israel should build a giant railway leading into to the Gaza concentration camp.

For environmental concerns, of course.

The first name "Al" has been ruined, my first thought was "they're making AI gore?".

because it's not the 1400s and you literally need an engine in a sailboat when docking or ferrying or, you know, when there's literally no wind.

[–] slaneesh_is_right@lemmy.org 1 points 6 days ago

The best part is that people who criticise her for things like that are the same people who have a fuck greta sticker on their coal rolling yank tanks. So they should agree with her.

[–] iAvicenna@lemmy.world 8 points 1 week ago* (last edited 1 week ago)

meh weak trolling at best
