  • This type of censorship never stops. There’s no doubt in my mind as this trend continues we’re going to see other taboo communities like piracy, not mainstream accepted politics, etc. ones being banned and their servers defederated.

    We’ve already seen admins of this server removing comments and banning people for posting stuff they don’t agree with. I don’t see how Lemmy can succeed when we’re not even at like 2.5k users per day on the biggest server and the admins here are already going extreme on the censorship.

    If you knew anything, you’d know this isn’t the reason why getting vaccine approval takes so long. It takes so long because there’s a mountain of bureaucrats, lawyers, researchers, and money required to get stuff moving along. Vaccines are pretty low the totem pole for companies and the government to give a shit about, since they’re usually about prevention and not treatment. Companies and the government can’t throw everything at a vaccine to approve. The only reason the covid vaccine was streamlined was because, you guessed it, we were and are in a global pandemic. Nothing about the approval of vaccines was abnormal, it still took nearly 2.5 years.












  • How many westerners dance in the street when our soldiers kill civilians?

    Are you too young to remember 2001-2005? Westerners were all open and talking about how we need to nuke the middle east off the planet and how all Muslims need to be rounded up and slaughtered. This wasn’t some small amount of people, this was a huge percentage of the population. Never mind the percentage of Israelis, who before this week and now more than ever probably, thought the same thing regarding Palestinians.

    Like what fucking reality are you people living in?

    You not holding Westerns, who live in luxury and have all the resources at their disposal, to the same standards of people who often go without water, food, and medical care and feel the need to fight for their freedom from oppressive colonizers is fucked beyond belief. This is you during 1800’s America: “these slaves are revolting and are ‘evil’!!!”

    What these people did was “evil” but it’s a fraction of “evil” as to what Israel does to the Palestinian people on the daily and have been doing to them for decades. You refusing to put these actions in context shows you don’t truly care about “evil.” You only care about “evil” when it’s done by someone you don’t like, i.e. Palestinians.
