Probably because there are more CCP pretending to be anarchists than actual anarchists on Lemmy.

There is no real Liberal and Communist strife or violence. Only bad actors attempting to create political divisions in places they don't belong.

Are you referring to the coalition of some NATO members and some non-NATO members (19 nations total) enforcing a United Nations Security Council decision to make an immediate ceasefire and end the civil war in Libya?
The one with zero troops on the ground?
Being in NATO had no impact on the events, NATO member support was not mandatory as per the terms of NATO. The only reason they even call it a NATO operarion was because Itally would only vote in favor of the operation if NATO members were in charge instead of France.

I don't think that works as a blanket statement, for example Australia has a law allowing takedowns for hate speech but it was recently used to censor a journalist who shared a video of an Isreal leader saying from the "river to the sea".
But in general, yes, censor hate and uphold journalistic integrity and freedom of the press in equal measures.

TBH if I had money I'd be minding my own business and using it to improve lives, but I understand the fantasy. Like playing Saints Row II, its fun but I wouldnt actually get in a car and hold somebody at gunpoint in real life.

NATO's only function is mutual defense, NATO support ends when a member attacks.
Since the only thing NATO does is prevent War, the only anti-NATO stance is a pro-war stance.

My apologies I hadn't realised you changed stances, I thought you were using those sources to argue in favor of your previous point. Notably with how you said theres a disconnect between supporters and policy.

Oh no! So you want to talk about how the mutual self defence pact is somehow oppressing you or will you just keep dodging forever?

Oh I'm sorry, I guess you're changing your argument from Democrats being on the center-rogjt to Democrats being not left enough. Admittedly a much more reasonable argument.
But in order to not admit being wrong you're just shifting the goal post by saying left isn't actually left unless it's as left as your arbitrary placement on the spectrum, which is further than socialized healthcare, higher taxes on the rich, and higher minimum wages. Those are just Centrists.
I apologize for putting you on the spot like that. I'm sure it was very distressing. My bad.

Well I certainly could make comparisons but thats a little irrelevnt. The core of my statement is that Lemmy doesn't operate the way Twitter does.
For me "the fuck is that question" is just a colloquial expression of confusion, not anger.

I can pay a little more for a nice forged knife, folded steel, but anything you buy at walmart or amazon is the same quality regardless of price.
Handles make a huge difference but they rarely impact price.

If the handle falls apart then the average person cant do shit about it even if blade quality is the same as a nice one.
