The serf has fallen in love with the feudal monarch :farquaad-point:

Has anyone else noticed an uptick in federated lemmy-users coming in to Hexbear threads and posting what I can only describe as a sequel to Mein Kampf when it comes to any news about the war? Like I figured most of the lemmy nerds had left, since they’re redditors at heart and redditors can’t keep themselves focused for more than a few minutes at a time.

Anything that isn’t SLAVA UKRAINA - VIVA BANDERA is considered to be Putin-bootlicking. Trying to explain context for why we think the way we do means that we are bots or paid operatives by a foreign agency, since obviously anyone disagreeing with the current line of the State Department is an enemy and therefore must be defeated,

Honestly the sheer whiplash of going “caring about Palestine is virtue signaling only” and litterally in the same sentence going “Ukraine more important” is just perfect

When the only type of Class-consciousness that is allowed is that of a consumer, and Healthcare is explicitly referred to as a service you’re purchasing like any other, people will demand the same level of obedience and kow-towing as they do of a McDonalds worker. Couple that with the highly emotional events that puts most people into contact with nurses, and you get an atmosphere that is not going to be nice. Then you add the fact that nurses are seen as lesser than doctors, and that nurses have the most direct contact with patients, and shit gets really fucking bad.

I have some family in the States, and its fucking wild hearing some of their stories about working in a hospital. My family-member works in a hospital in Tennessee and she is genuinely struggling to get her children and husband to take Covid seriously at all. Since the husband is a Chud, he is completely beyond reach, even by his own wife.

True to my word, I have refrained from posting on this site for the duration of my paternity leave, as I refuse to post here unless I can count it as work. Anyway, kid is doing great, but it does take a toll to be alone with him for n entire day while he is learning to walk. The amount of times I have had to catch something falling on his head is incredible, especially considering that I child-proofed our place when our daughter was born.

France is about to speedrun the road to fascism arent they?

Yeah, but have you considered that he is asian, and thus probably a secret communist?

How come a chinese banker requires bribes in the hundreds of millions, while the average price for a US Senator is a free rental car.
