But I thought lemmings told me Elon was a fascist. If Elon was a fascist, why would he cater to centrists?

The fact is that Elon, one man, has done more to support Ukraine in the fight against Putin than most countries on earth.

In fact even if Ukrainians weren't receiving it for free Elon would still deserve credit FOR CREATING Starlink in the first place. Thereby allowing Ukrainians to have critical infrastructure in wartime.

The Russians would be parading Zelenskyy’s corpse through the streets of Kiev, if not for Elon’s help.

It’s time to put some of these billionaires in their place. Nationalize his shit, seize his assets, and revoke his passport and citizenship. Fuck Musk, sick of his childish attention seeking bullshit.

Nationalize SpaceX for sure. Let him keep Twitter though, at this point it’s such a dumpster fire that it’s more of an albatross around his neck than an asset, we don’t need the tax payers carrying that shit.

I would say we give him the French treatment. Fucker is just wasting oxygen

It’s infuriating that people are beholden to this fucking loser.

Trying to assist his rich buddies with fucking with the union is a lower tier crime but still its fuckery that affects a lot of people. Then we’ve got other rich asshats selling state secrets for money. Billionaires are a liability and everyone needs to realize it.

Well, I think this might, but probably not, technically qualify as an anti-union action in violation of state and federal laws. Basically, if you do things to silence or discredit the union and advocates then you’ve broken the law. That said, companies get away with a lot worse, so something as minor as the blue check disappearing is not likely to have any real backlash.Definitely shows where he stands on these issues if it ever wasn’t clear. Musk is unfortunately a person with a lot of influence on business and politics.

Fascism at its best +28

I don’t think that’s what fascism is -18

Union-busting is absolutely part of the fascist agenda. +24

for the fascist please refer to my previous comment, for the Communists, the Bolsheviks didn’t have much to do with the small and numerous Russian unions (Russia had a very beurocratically decentralized industry at that point in time) and later fought against them as they mostly joined the white Russian faction (the bolsheviks being backed by the Entente), and ironically the term Tankie comes from an event where the soviet unions crushed mainly union uprisings against the soviets in Hungary, with tanks, because the soviets also couldn’t stand unions (like ever fascist ever)please stop repeating American Cold War era misinformation.

A few days ago, Beehaw posted an announcement in their Chat community about the challenges of content moderation and the possibility of leaving Lemmy. That post was eventually locked.

Then, about two days ago, Beehaw posted an announcement in their support community that they aren't confident about the long-term use of Lemmy, due to so-called concerns about Lemmy.

RedditAlternatives discussion

If you currently use Beehaw and want to stay on the federated Lemmy network, consider migrating your account to another instance like lemm.ee.

When trying to open the site it reads the message: “Hey, I apologize but for the time being this instance must go down. I cannot deal with two instances at once during the ongoing issues with lemmy and people spamming illegal content into the federation. I don't know when or if this instance will be back, but I will try my best to bring it back up when I can. For continued info, please go to literature.cafe, I love and appreciate you <3”
