Well I mean your admin provided a pretty good reason below, couldn’t argue the point so just screamed racist!!! and probably raged in their chair they couldn’t ban me

This video never gets old, made 6 years old and still relevant as ever

I’m a centre-left labor voter irl who voted in favour of tackling climate change, 50c public transport and free school lunches, but when I come here apparently i’m hitler

Reality is that Mastodon/fediverse is at trump levels of echo chamber except with left wing progressives, and in the case of lemmy.ml … left wing regressives

my banned account on Mastodon for climate change denialism despite having solar panels, solar battery, ev a full electric house and i’ve used ecosia for years now shows how absurd this place can be if you don’t join in the circlejerk

i’m actually surprised i haven’t been banned, aussie.zone is cool, hopefully more people come over

Dang! Thanks for the help though :)

I’d prefer we don’t import crime in the first place, if you’re willing to get murdered or assaulted then go right ahead and be my guest… but most people would rather not

Yes Macron said this back in 2017

https://www.elysee.fr/en/emmanuel-macron/2017/09/26/president-macron-gives-speech-on-new-initiative-for-europe

literally point number one:

1. A Europe that guarantees security in all its aspects

In terms of defence, Europe must have a joint intervention force, a joint defence budget and a joint doctrine for action. We need to encourage the swift creation of a European Defence Fund, permanent structured cooperation, and supplement them with a European intervention initiative that better integrates our armed forces at all stages.

and what has changed since then and what is being implemented?

Well if you let this continue then the actions of ‘some of their cohort’ end up causing quite a bit of damage! See Europe right now which is dealing with a huge crime wave because of ‘some of their cohort’ and the majority of countries are now anti-immigrant.

Spread of gang violence wrecks Sweden’s peaceful image

Swedish police do not currently map gang members’ nationalities, but research for the Swedish National Council for Crime Prevention in 2021 showed young people born in Sweden to two parents from abroad were overrepresented as suspects in murder cases and robberies.

So if you’re pro-immigration then your best bet is to restrict immigration down to countries and cultures that match our values, importing immigrants from Palestine will for example result in the country regressing backwards politically, but you probably think that’s racist so you’re in quite a conundrum!

Can’t support open immigration because that ultimately results in closed borders after increased crime/violence vs Can’t support restricting immigration to countries that share our values because that would make you racist.

Tough times.

btw @[email protected] I blocked this instance:

But this persons posts are still showing up? Shouldn’t they be blocked?

You’re cool with 100 unlawful non-citizens just running around? really?

The pair cited evidence in Senate estimates that the cohort includes people convicted of murder or attempted murder (12), sexual offending (66), assault (97), domestic violence (15), serious drug offences (15) and people smuggling (5).

Thanks blocked em!

Ok so I figured out how to block a user but blocking an instance:

https://www.ecosia.org/search?q=block+whole+instance+lemmy&addon=firefox&addonversion=4.1.4&method=topbar

Leads me to:

https://github.com/LemmyNet/lemmy/issues/2397

Which suggests there’s no way to do this :(

nah i’m trying to read less about america and i found if i block all the china/russia/palestinian left wing progressives/hacks/activists the fediverse becomes quite a nice place

https://www.reddit.com/r/Lemmy/comments/143njvy/lemmy_is_run_by_tankies_avoid_it/

this is from 10 months ago, this post i linked to was from a few hours ago, it seems to just be a constant drama among everyone, is it not? or is it just a coincidence?

Also i don’t care for the post i want to block the whole instance, friends of russia and china are no friends of mine

i’ve only been here a short while and i’ve seen multiple meta posts now from a variety of instances talking about blocking that instance and moving to different software like mbin so i think this is a shared view

eg. https://sh.itjust.works/post/27559887

hello how do i block a whole instance?

what the fuck is this shit

if you charge it at night sure, if you charge it during the day it’s 70% powered by renewables

daylight has been conquered by solar, now we’re moving into battery/hydro/wind to dominate night as well

you can also tell him that electric vehicles are still more efficient even when powered by coal because a petrol engine spends 70% of its energy making a lot of noise and heat, whereas ev’s do the opposite

byd seal looks amazing, the only thing I’m not sure on is the infotainment system, but I’m hoping by 2030 when I get my next EV the tech will have come along quite nicely

the other feature is low to no heat, so these things are like tank drop bears

The university sector is in crisis

When wasn’t it in crisis?

Would prefer additional lane added not removed, coro drive already sucks
