Do you think that’s any comfort to the Palestinians Biden is helping to genocide?
Maybe you’re misreading my intention. The image is supposed to convey that the Democrats use Republicans as a threat so they can stay in power, and the frayed rope represents them losing control. What did you think I was trying to say?

I always thought it rewarded skill better. Instead of blue shells, karts were faster the farther back they fell in rankings, the lack of randomized items encouraged strategy, and if you didn’t touch the steering, accelerator or brakes, the boosts would last longer. Plus the music was dope.
Signs point to a future terrorist attack at the records building, and maybe at the building of the investigators too.
Reminds me of a true story of a mother who died at home with her toddler in the apartment. By the time anybody noticed, 4 days later the child had been living off cereal and sugar, and he rubbed lotion on his mother’s body to try to help her feel better.
Egoism comes from one of two sources, so you can pick your poison. Ayn Rand is popular with libertarians, conservatives, and other short-sighted, smooth-brain ideologies. Left Hand Path Satanism is the other source. That form of egoism isn’t inherently ignorant, but it attracts edgelords and misanthropes.
What is the texture and flavor of jellyfish?
I guess you’re the guy who pulls words out of context and tweaks them to fit their agenda. My shtick is cuter because it’s based on how nationalism actually works. You realize that the whole reason Jews make an easy scapegoat is that they weren’t tied to land, right? That was the biggest reason Nazis wanted them culled. Turns out, Israel proved them right. You tie a religion to some land and it’s easy to pervert a faith into fascism.
Lemmy.world is not apolitical. They’re zionists. I submit for proof, the post that resulted in my site wide ban:
It does feel like an overly formalized speech, but I’ve always chosen to judge ideas on their merits rather than their presentation.
So you’re a fan of grassroots initiatives.
It’s not that I’m inflexible in my vision, it’s that I’m dealing with people who think they know what the project is about, so they keep arguing with their own fantasies. I’m only trying to orient them to the actual project, so that any input they provide is actually relevant. When I label something as ignorance, I recognize that it’s triggering for people. That’s because they don’t understand that the root of ignorance is “ignore.” When the information is presented in good faith and it’s ignored or interpreted in bad faith, that’s ignorance.
As for the practical vs ideological approach, all of the information a person needs to build a better world already exists. The reason it’s not being built is that people are programmed with capitalistic ideology. This project is about using an entirely new ideology to direct those actions. If you think the project needs better PR then you are welcome to act practically to create it. If you just want to build a homestead, I have resources for that as well. I am creating a framework. I hope that others use the framework to enact change in the same way I’m using it to enact change in my own life.
The problem is that people all want to talk about what’s not possible, and they don’t want to reach just a bit to see what is possible, and the groundwork that’s being laid. They’ve got that capitalistic, competitive mindset that compels them to tear down anything they don’t control, and that’s what I’m fighting against.
Oh I give people two or three chances before I decide that continuing is a waste of their time and mine, then I use them as an example. I’m not going to bang my head up against the wall for the sake of one person who never wanted to understand. You seem to think that this is an equal exchange. It’s actually a sharing of ideas met with repeated attacks. You accuse me of being unyielding and failing to compromise. There is no compromise with ignorance. You and I have gotten along swimmingly. It’s because you know how to use logic, and you’re not trying to mischaracterize every statement that I make. Do you notice the difference in my responses?
I’ve been around long enough to know that there’s no way to please everybody, and I’m not trying to. Ideally, the first few active members will be enthusiastic and understanding of the underlying principles. I have created a Discord, and I have more information in reserve. I’m just trying to grow the project organically for now.
How does a flock know when to move, and how does it move as one? To a Starling, what is good for the flock is good for the individual. Each part contributes to the whole, and when a threat appears, the strength of the whole protects the individual. The purpose of the bird imagery is to invoke the spirit of the project without all of the essays and lists. As for what people should do, that’s up to them. Each individual is an authority. You can help somebody else or you can start your own thing. If you have a yard and a garden, then try to spread your knowledge to others. If you have a degree in history, write parables that prepare individuals to recognize historical threats. If you think you understand the philosophy of the movement and want to create a guide for others, go ahead. The core of this project is community building. All of the posts on the Lemmy community are just intended to open the mind and provide examples. I have a ton of survival information, a repository that’s most likely larger than anything you’ve seen. I need to find a good host for it online.
I don’t talk down to people. I talk to people in the exact tone they use when addressing me. When they start complaining that they don’t have access to information that’s printed right in front of their faces, when they twist clear communications into strawmen, and when they stubbornly cling to their delusions after being corrected; they are acting in bad faith. When they ask sincere questions, accept new information, and engage meaningfully; I do the same. I linked the passages that explained the solutions that the user insisted that I was neglecting and they refused to read them.
First line of the pinned post.
Project Murmuration is a hypothetical concept that envisions a decentralized, self-sustaining, adaptable, and flexible civilization inspired by the natural phenomenon of murmurations seen in birds, particularly starlings. This project proposes a unique approach to creating communities that thrive through cooperation, shared intention, and a commitment to abundance while avoiding threats of violence from opposing cultures.
What doesn’t that answer for you?
4chan back before the Nazi takeover was like the wild west. My favorite part was “Lithursday,” when we would share images with embedded PDFs of copyrighted content, including rare books, anarchist materials, and military manuals. I often wonder if those unusually large .jpgs are still floating around the internet waiting to be unlocked. I also saw legitimate acts of activism and terrorism unfolding live, without the interpretation and propaganda of the state.
