Insomniac code gorilla. I help maintain lemmy-ui and, to a lesser extent, Lemmy’s backend.

“I think we’re in an age when nuclear deterrent is actually less effective because the West is very unlikely to use anything like a nuclear bomb, whereas our adversaries might,” he added. “Where you have technological parity but moral disparity, the actual disparity is much greater than people think.”

There’s a moral disparity alright, but it’s not the US who has the moral high ground.

I happened to make a mod for this ages ago: https://github.com/SleeplessOne1917/WOTRDamageBreakdown

Unfortunately, I don’t think it works with the current version of the game. I really need to update it at some point.

There are two sources that I think are from two English translations that you can get for free, but I don’t really know the differences

The one from Iskra Books is most likely better. The one on Prolewiki is the English translation of a Portuguese translation of the original Italian, whereas the one on Iskra Books is a direct English translation from the original Italian.

The only time it’s appropriate to cite Mein Kampf is when pointing out the parallels between the Nazis’ settler colonial extermination campaign and Amerikkka’s settler colonial extermination campaign. Also:

Isn’t it hypocritical for their admins to accuse us of “negativity” when they literally allow racism on their instance?

That’s a waaaaa👶 tabboutism!!1!1

I’m a very materially comfortable first-worlder. I have a lot to lose from the immiseration of my class that would materially put my skin in the game, as opposed to simply relying on some sense of morality to carry me. I’m worried I might be compromised; although I suppose recognizing this already puts me ahead of many so-called leftists in the Great Satan.

I’m flattered by the comparison, but unlike Stalin, I’ve barely made any steps to strengthen the working class.
