Well, that’s interesting. thank you for the facts, i never knew that.

Yeah, saudi arabia was WAY worse like 7-13 years ago, but it’s still horrible today. Maybe one day we’ll become a democracy too, but i’d expect at least a century before the idea of that even becomes plausible lol.

Heh. I agree, i wish everyone else did, though ;^)

Wait, aren’t you in Saudi Arabia right now?

Yep, lol.

From what I heard, it’s worse than PRC, do you feel scared when talking about politics at home?

I almost never talk about my beliefs/criticism of the government, it’s a risky game. Only the internet i’m actually free to say as much shit as i can (that is, if they don’t find me lmao)

Like in PRC, the expectation would be prison / forced apology depending on severeity. Isn’t dissent like a death sentence in Saudi Arabia? 😬

Wait, really? I never knew it was that lightweight in china. Yeah, it’s flat out public execution (even torture depending in some cases) it’s pretty fucked. Oil barons are absolute scum 🫠

(I hope you are using Tor btw)

Only on mobile i use orbot on almost all social media, but desktop’s still a WIP on privacy. Learning about good opsec right now.

Should probably specify, i am not an immigrant and have never set foot on american soil. We have our own clown show in my country, and is an absolute monarchy which is why i usually butt heads with basically everyone else lol. Republicanism is a very frowned upon (and illegal) ideology lol. But when’s that stopped anybody?

Not a good one, that’s for sure. Actually my parents are the exact same, monarchist bootlickers. When i shit talk the government in front of them, they always defend it as hard as possible and talk about how dangerous it is (It is, but that’s literally part of the problem??)

Ffs, my dad literally had a co-worker ““disappear”” and he still defends the government. It’s just always “thank god for what we have, we shouldn’t get involved in politics”

As context, i’ve been a republican (for americans, i mean actual republican, not the US party.) from a pretty young age, and i still am. Which is why political debates between my family are always fun ;^)

Nope, sorry :(

Oddly enough i haven’t seen any from .ml, so good job keeping the fucks off lemmy. Can’t saw the same for LW and SJW sadly, though i always ping the admins each time i see em.

If only we can keep them contained to hilariouschaos or their own instance, at least. If you’re going to be racist, at least do it there and spare us from the BS.

redditors were the reason i left reddit, too many racism against arabs so i decided lemmy would be a better place. It still has a couple of the traits left over, but it’s miles better than that shithole. So i’m really disappointed seeing them here :/ though it’s funny seeing them get dunked on lol

Liar. They were destroyed with facts and logic, duh

I wish too. Unfortunately, the redditors are coming here, and i’ve noticed a pretty big spike in racism/transphobia :D I’ve been trying to keep them on a leash, reporting them to other admins directly and banning them from dbzer0, but the attitude itself being there disappoints me heavily :/

Except the non-US republicans, they’re cool :D

i opened lemmy to this. april fools definitely cheered me up at least, lol :)

Wait till i drop fxomtpie, we’ll need to fit that into the link!

Yeah -verse has been beaten to death xd

I think a more neutral, non lemmy centric name would’ve been better but i don’t think mbin/piefed devs mind too much. its a cool project after all :)

Hey this is pretty cool. But why not lemmyverse.link? (or threadiverse.link for piefed users)

Edit: I checked it out more, this is very cool. Codeberg, incoming mbin support, shorter link… I think i’ll use this now ;) Thank you for sharing, asudox!
