Sorry for the short response, but that was a fantastic read and I think I'm very much simpatico with your own experience. I always admired Return2Ozma too, what a trooper! Glad to have you on the instance :)

Do you feel like it's been extra exhausting lately, or is it just me? I used to think hexbear was the biggest pita to deal with but they are honestly pretty chill nowadays, especially compared to LW debate lords.

@anarchiddy@lemmy.dbzer0.com makes some excellent points below. You should maybe chill and take them on board. It's easy to leap to the wrong conclusions based on faulty assumptions.
Also, this is way off topic.
Underappreciated comment and thank you for the patriot dumpling recipe.
Recommend you just change the dinner conversation topic to women in the military because that's always a winner.
Wanna give it a go on a test community?
My bad, I didn't realise it was an option. Next time!!
If I add the keywords now will the bot pick it up, or just runs the one time?
Yeah, a few folks have made a similar suggestion to make it more of a general rule. Thanks for your feedback. I'll update the wording with a v2 soon.
That seems like an unlikely scenario to me. Like, could it happen? Yes, I suppose it's not impossible. But in the rare event, its easy enough to file an appeal if a wrong call is made somewhere.
That virus was simply irresistible.
Cheers to poetic prose!
Democrats, RISE UP!
Civility is the most important thing.

You made a good comment for the rest of us to read in any case 👍
Feudalism isn’t exactly capitalism but it’s splitting hairs.
You are literally arguing about definitions, it's all splitting hairs.

On May 5th, 1818, Karl Marx, hero of the international proletatiat, was born. His revolution of Socialist theory reverberates throughout the world carries on to this day, in increasing magnitude. Every passing day, he is vindicated. His analysis of Capitalism, development of the theory of Scientific Socialism, and advancements on dialectics to become Dialectical Materialism, have all played a key role in the past century, and have remained ever-more relevant throughout.
He didn't always rock his famous beard, when he was younger he was clean shaven!

New rule proposal for the Golden Rules - Voting post
Ahoy me hearties!
To run alongside the discussion on the simplified Golden Rules for the instance, I decided to post a separate proposal for a single rule addition.
The proposed rule is: Off topic comments and downvote trolling to protest the use of genAI images is not permitted in our communities.
It would only apply to communities where GenAI art is not disallowed by the community rules, so mods can opt in or out.
Since the rule will likely attract some pushback from the anti-GenAI crowd, I wanted to run this proposal as a member vote to confirm we have broad support.
Be Weird, Download a Car, Generate Art, Screw Copyrights
Communities about Anarchism, Generative AI, Copylefts, Neurodivergence, Filesharing, and Free Software.
Our instance has been associated with genAI art since its inception, because the founding admin, db0, has also spent years developing and maintaining FOSS Projects like [AI Horde](

There were many disheartening moments during the 2024 U.S. presidential campaign for progressives who support Palestinian rights. Yet few were quite as deflating as that moment when the ostensibly progressive, leading member of The Squad, Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez stood at the podium at the Democratic National Convention and told the audience that then-Vice President Kamala Harris was “working tirelessly to secure a ceasefire in Gaza and bring the hostages home.”
We knew she was lying. AOC herself knew she was lying. But it was just the message that the crowd—who were more than eager to show their support for the Democrats despite the party’s utter refusal to allow even the most conciliatory and moderate Palestinian voice to be heard—wanted to hear, and t

Kick-Ass Women from History #1: 郑一嫂 (Zhèng Yī Sǎo)
I acknowledge this is a bit tangential to c/piracy's usual topics but I just thought Zhèng Yī Sǎo deserves a bit more recognition for her anti-imperialist stance and amazingly successful career. All credit to the author of the original post (@ZDL@ttrpg.network).

If I were to ask you who the most successful pirate in history was, I'm guessing you'd come up with names like Captain Kidd or Blackbeard or any number of others of that crowd in the Caribbean. But what if I told you that history's most successful pirate was in China, and was a woman? Would that surprise you? Intrigue you?
Prepare to be intrigued as I introduce you then, today, to one of the single most feared pirates in all of history: Zheng Yi Sao (this is the name I will be using here; she went by others), the pirate queen who was hunted by not one, not two, but three imperial powers, yet who retired peacefully and
Bernie Sanders has police drag away anti-genocide protesters at “Fighting Oligarchy” rally
The large rallies headlined by Sanders and Ocasio-Cortez demonstrate the growing audience for anti-capitalist, anti-war and socialist politics. But if this healthy impulse is to be developed, it must break free from Sanders and the Democratic Party.
Sad to know that even Bernie isn't immune to genocide denialism and is apparently only interested in domestic political issues.

On Monday, during an election campaign-style rally in Nampa, Idaho Senator Bernie Sanders had two anti-genocide protesters ejected from the event by police for unfurling a banner depicting the Palestinian flag with the phrase “Free Palestine.” As the protesters were dragged away by police, thousands in the arena erupted into cheers of “Free Palestine,” drowning out Sanders’ attempts to quell their anger.
For nearly two months, tens of thousands of people across the United States have been attending rallies held under the banner of “Fighting Oligarchy” and headlined by Sanders and Democratic Socialists of America (DSA) member and New York Representative Ale

Trump is committing genocide for Israel after publicly admitting to being bought and owned by the Adelsons.
All the worst shit happens right out in the open. You don’t need to come up with any elaborate conspiracy theories to see it. It’s right there, completely unhidden.
It’s not hidden, it’s just spun. Disguised by the propaganda of the mass media who frame this holocaust as a war of defense in response to a terrorist attack while constantly diverting our attention to other far less significant issues.
It says so much about the power of the imperial propaganda machine that Trump could openly admit to having been fully controlled by Adelson cash on the campaign trail, get elected, and then facilitate a blatant extermination campaign in Gaza while aggressively stomping ou

It's apparently fine for the DNC ghouls to aid and abet "centrist" (aka right wing) candidates who want to run against sitting progressive Democrats, but the moment someone does the reverse, suddenly they leap into action. Classic DNC.

A number of party leaders are frustrated that Hogg, who has a leadership position in the party, is pushing primaries against some incumbents in deep-blue seats.
Democratic party leaders Thursday morning admonished officers to not take sides in primaries, addressing a situation involving activist and Democratic National Committee vice chair David Hogg.
"Let me be unequivocal. No DNC officer should ever attempt to influence the outcome of a primary election, whether on behalf of an incumbent or a challenger," DNC Chair Ken Martin said in a press call. "Voters should decide who our primary nominees are, not DNC leadership. Our role is to serve as stewards of a fair, open and trusted proc
