Just because they advocate firearms doesn’t make them right libertarian. For a lot of leftists like me arming the proletariat is essential.

I don’t particularly like Mental Outlaw because he’s one of those edgy people who likes to use the word “normie” a lot, but at least he’s not like Distrotube or god forbid Luke Smith.

Reminder that Reddit still hosts the largest hatful subreddit that is r/IndiaSpeaks and nothing ever happens to it.

The content in the sub ranges from Islamophobia, death threats, misogyny and homophobia.

Here’s whats in /etc/xdg/reflector/reflector.conf

# Reflector configuration file for the systemd service.
#
# Empty lines and lines beginning with "#" are ignored.  All other lines should
# contain valid reflector command-line arguments. The lines are parsed with
# Python's shlex modules so standard shell syntax should work. All arguments are
# collected into a single argument list.
#
# See "reflector --help" for details.

# Recommended Options

# Set the output path where the mirrorlist will be saved (--save).
--save /etc/pacman.d/mirrorlist

# Select the transfer protocol (--protocol).
--protocol https

# Select the country (--country).
# Consult the list of available countries with "reflector --list-countries" and
# select the countries nearest to you or the ones that you trust. For example:
--country Bangladesh,India

# Use only the  most recently synchronized mirrors (--latest).
--latest 5

# Sort the mirrors by synchronization time (--sort).
--sort age

There is a silver lining, we participated in the blackout but our community of a few thousand members were small as it is and we wanted to make the blackout indefinite but people were joining alternative subreddits and keeping it privatised indefinitely won’t do anything since other way bigger subs are opening up.

We opened up and now I’m thinking to announce a move to lemmy whilst keeping the subreddit open.
