Its not really satire I’d its almost exactly what he said but slightly worse, theres not really a joke or commentary and it does succeed at being misleading, I feel like describing it that way is unreasonable. Its just an exaggeration of how bad what he said is.

There are people in this tread litterally claiming its true because there are sources that substantiate him saying something very similar.

This does not appear to be real. He did have a similar truth social post:

Tuesday will be Power Plant Day, and Bridge Day, all wrapped up in one, in Iran. There will be nothing like it!!! Open the Fuckin’ Strait, you crazy bastards, or you’ll be living in Hell - JUST WATCH! Praise be to Allah. President DONALD J. TRUMP

THE PERFECT COVER

Brb gotta go get diagnosed with sleep apnea

This made my fucking week, thanks

Neat! Thanks for putting it on my radar :)

I’m ashamed to admit I didn’t immediately register the joke. But at least from the slew of down votes I can tell I’m not alone in being a little bit dumb 😅

Had never heard of it, do you have any context for its origin or how you’d described it? :)

I am not the most knowledgeable on this subject but didnt they just do what amounts to slavery in their colonies like in India? They had colonial rule over India until like sometime in the 1900s didn’t they? Like they were an imperial nation, I’m not sure it really matters if the the exploitation and bloodshed happened within their own landmass, but perhaps I don’t know the history of england very well

I just checked and Ireland didn’t gain independence until 1949. I think the idea that the British empire and it’s monarchy is better than the democracy that extended its benefits only to white men is kind of a hard sell. Its the British empire 😅

As bad as things are in the current moment I’m not sure theres a strong case that living under a literal monarchy with zero Democratic representation and no meaningful civil liberties was better 😅

The handful of merits of the American establishment may be currently disintegrating under the wright of neo-fascism, but the establishment the founders built, explicitly flawed though it was/is, is definitely a better establishment than imperialist monarchical British rule

That was an impactful read thanks for sharing it. People who build open source pour so much of themselves into it and I can absolutely see it becoming unhealthy easily, in many different ways, and the culture not being able to identify someone is unwell.

I often think of community run open source free license software projects as an example of communalism, personally. Maybe when I learn about more forms of anarchism and socialism there will be other ideas that feel more apt to describe it

Hands them my baby pothos sappling 🥹😭

This is super cool! I’m not afab so I can’t help test and my question may be ignorant but I’m curious why one would want this functionality to not be something native and benefits from being hosted at all?

There are some f-droid trackers that look nice (I keep seeing one there with a super pretty ui) but I’m not sure what the tradeoffs of just using a native application for something like this might be

😳
