Like many, I got kicked out of Reddit. Mainly because Russian, Chonese or religious trolls with a thin skin, but recently I think cause they don't like too much anti-systemic statements.

Anyway. I would like to keep an account in order to follow the s/BuyFromEU and try to advocate for Lemmy and other decentrilized platforms.

Does someone knows what Reddit gets for info about a user? I mean what exactly they see about my IP address, cookies, devices etc?

It's inevitable to think capitalism is wrong, but it's easier to fix than Communism or any other system.

I stopped to shout against capitalism simply cause we do not have a better solution yet. Also when capitalism gets wrong, it's mostly because a lack of regulations. A balanced system, like socialdemocracies in Scandinavia are a good example.

Unfortunately it seems we are going towards autocracies everywhere, and that's not capitalism's fault but just human greediness. So in other word, we're the problem, otherwise Socialism would reign all over the world.

Read the same story the other day. They missed Hitler's escalation believing he will never lie to such a point, until he did and then it was too late.

If someone has a dictatorship as a goal, you can't just fight under the democratic rules, especially if your system is not bullet proof.

I'm not saying "grab a gun", I'm saying there's not much time to act. Anyway, this gives me some hope:

I mean, you probably understand that being a new user and already getting banned for small arbitrary stuff gives a "Reddit vibe".

I must be honest, I haven't read the rules yet cause I believe I can act like a civil person. A rule that states "do no promote hate", can be streched to any ban if you want and that's what Reddit or people in lemmy.ml are doing imo.

Anyway, it wasn't such a big problem. I like Lemmy and thank you for the effort to make this place working.

That's why we have to treath them the same way they would treath us.

Initially I thought it was a Russian troll, but probably they're like my still communist friends. Russia bad (or may even not), but USA anyway worse. People without hope.

Nothing much better here.

Today they canceled me one comment cause of a "Fuck Putin", while arguing with a Russian troll.

Really thin skin. (on Europe@lemmy.ml).

It's the moment you took Chomsky that I understood you don't have hope 😂

Nato is a defensive org, so it's absolutely not important for Russia if Ukraine joining that, unless Russia wants to conquer Ulraine, which is the only reason why they do not want thta to happen.

Putin wanted to invade Ukraine, and they did it. They don't want to have democracy close to their border, caise you know...people don't like to live in a dictatoriship.

Nope, US clearly said no to NATO for them already in 2009, much before the Russian invasions.

Dude, this stuff you're telling is at least three yo. It's been largely debunked.

All the ex Warsaw hate Russia even if they've slavic roots in common like Poland or Ukraine, just take a look on what that people state and do. This should tell you much about how much this people want to avoid Moscow's influence.

All the ex Warsaw begged for a membership, it wasn't the USA teasing them.

And in fact US denied Ukraine a NATO membership, and funnily it's been invaded.
