Supporting communism’s ideas, while still fairly condemning terrible things done by historical attempts at implementing it.

No
To clear definitions, at least for me"tankies" are a subset of communists, who praises/defends the actions of all/most communist states far more than similar actions from capitalist states. The difference between communists and tankies is a bias in favor of communist states when looking at things like human rights violations. Very few people will self identify as a tankie, since it’s hard to see your own bias.
I feel like a few might see a felony conviction as a “straw that broke the camel’s back”
No, it’s a question of volume. Before reddit turned to shit, it used to work the same way, but niche communities could still thrive because there were enough people. Lemmy will be able to hold more communities as more people join

A pretty good video from Veritasium about Thomas Midgley.
That’s not a trivial thing, that’s a war crime
Honestly I’d kind of like that in some ways. Language is actually pretty limiting, so not being stuck with it for thinking would make some thoughts easier to convey to yourself.
Everyone has run like captain Jack Sparrow at some point
Why do we need custom backgrounds for our phones and computers? That’s free space that could be ads. Especially good if clicking/tapping on the background causes a full screen, unclosable, unskippable ad. Because a misclick is definitely showing interest in the product.
Browser load times. Slow that down a bit, and you’ve got enough time to pop an ad in between every page load.
Indie games, FromSoft, and larian ftw.
Only ea games I can think of that I’ve bought are jedi: fallen order and jedi: survivor. And I only bought them because they’re actually good games that aren’t monetized like a casino.
Unstoppable - Red, original by Sia
I remember when I had a surface tablet, the stylus thing used a AAAA battery
Conceptually useful bots (even if they aren’t always great) like those two I approve of. You can easily ignore them, but they’re there for when you want them.
The meme bots that were on reddit like grond we could do without. They were fun at the time, but I’m glad we don’t have them here.
And that is supposed to make us respect them?
alien weaponry. Kiwi band that have a lot of Maori (nz indigenous people/language) in their music.
red. Christian metal band, but still good for non Christians since it’s just based on Christian values not directly worship.
Probably something using dihydrogen monoxide as a solvent for a mixture of organic compounds
proceeds to generalize all religious people as the worst of religion
Most religious people do acknowledge all the stuff you’re talking about, and agree with you on how terrible they are. Most of the time when you meet a religious person, you won’t think there’s anything different until you ask them.
