When you forcefully coup and overthrow a nation’s elected government and install a puppet regime, you don’t gain an ally, you gain an asset. NATO is an Alliance, the Warsaw pact was an alliance, the Ukraine is a proxy state. But keep making a fool of yourself.

So it’s not a hate crime as long as you belong to the same language family. Don’t tell this guy about the Balkan wars, lmao.

On what grounds is the Ukraine a western “ally”, according to you? Because all I see is “proxy”

Indeed, which is why they’ve yet to do so.

In a nuclear apocalypse, the living will envy the dead

I’ve always agreed with that sentiment. If I somehow did end up not being incinerated, I’d probably just choose to end it manually than have to endure the literal hellscape that would follow.

Different flavor of echochamber, it’s up to personal taste if you prefer it over twitter. But I don’t see any real point to it, and I expect most people will just go crawling back, just like they did with threads.

When given the choice of conservative techbro brainworms on Twitter, and lib blue MAGA brainworms on bluesky, I’ll just stick with Lemmy.

Special year 2024, in addition to yearly racist traditions during the holidays, the Dutch have gotten their own special racial violence in Amsterdam early!

Very skeptical, I see a lot of libs jumping over because they want to distance themselves from Twitter.

Just one day? How much does that affect video game development anyway? I’m not overly familiar with digital media development procedures but this seems like a pretty weak strike.

Theres way fewer Baltic people. The whole of Estonia has less people than one single city in most other European states. It’s a lot easier to propagandize such a small population.

I recently attempted to try out Heart’s of Iron TNO, after it’s most recent update. And if you can look past the eye burning UI, It’s got a fairly okay storyline with a firmly anti-fascist narrative. Although if you’re specifically looking to trash on the US, then for strategy games I could recommend Eugen system’s Wargame and Warno series. I remember playing one of them way back in the day, and it was pretty good. They released the latest entry this year, I haven’t played it but it seems to have good reviews.

I see so many Dutch Gekoloniseerd memes. I don’t get it, is it actually still considered funny? Or has it become ironic?

You too, Oppo

Come now, dear American, we’ve already got our Thermonuclear Statsian Hoxha.

Not sure if you are taking the piss, but it’s clear they meant to say “On our behalf” and fat fingered their keys.

C’mon, it’s Gwide-O

look up “is this loss”

Before I started losing my hearing I was already used to asking people to repeat themselves, since I was living abroad and not fluent in the language after all. Although back then nobody seemed to mind, since its normal for foreigners. Ironically its my own countrymen who had less patience for it.
