Yes. The issue is that social democratic states have a general tendency to be very permissive towards propaganda that is hostile to social democracy, because offering a lot of freedom of expression is generally part of the core ideas of social democracy.

It’s pretty good while it lasts, but lately I’m getting the impression that social democratic states are kind of weak against propaganda from other ideologies. Core issue being that even in social democratic states, the rich still accumulate wealth, which gives them undue influence over the population.

TBH depending on the specific european country, it doesn’t even look that different, it’s just usually way cheaper and not tied to employment, and heavily scales with income.

If you click on the link to “Hominini” in the Wiktionary article, it says “Hominini - A taxonomic tribe within the family Hominidae – humans; or the chimpanzees and humans.”

Granted, that’s different from what I said, as it’s only the chimpanzees that might be included, but according to Wiktionary it just isn’t clear cut.

According to your link and the linked Wikipedia article, that word includes the non-human great apes, which seems rather unfair. It’s only the genus homo within the family of hominids who discovered fire. “Human” is probably fine, depending on the exact definition used it can definitely include our direct ancestor species while excluding chimpanzees. But it can definitely also be understood to mean specifically homo sapiens, so there’s a lot of potential for misunderstandings.

It does punish you for downvoting, though, and sometimes even upvoting. Just by upvoting what you like or think is important and downvoting what you think is bullshit on All, you can collect quite a few bans. Which is bullshit IMO.

Based on their past work, OP/the artist is not a hypocrit, they’re intentionally making the character sound like an asshole.

TBF it would be really hard to compete in a market where your competition relies on slave labor, unless you have a lot of ethically-minded consumers who can afford to pay more for ethically produced goods. Though I honestly don’t know how big the price difference would have been, it’s not like agricultural workers would have gotten high wages …

I’m about twice your age, German and still got a St Nicholas gift bag from my mother. The answer might be “never”.

Depends on how little drug use counts as “drug-abusing”. I’d assume the majority of people use drugs like alcohol, nicotine, caffeine and cannabis/THC, and most use them for recreational purposes or “to deal with the stress”.

Same issue with “computer nerd”, really. One person’s nerd is another one’s normie.

If you’re changing your name for gender change reasons, it has recently become quite easy if you live in Germany. Probably not going to last given the far right’s popularity, though.

Probably depends on where you live. Laws differ substantially between different countries and possibly even between federal states.

Based on you not mentioning your country, I assume USA, though.

It’s the texture for me. But it’s not nearly as bad if the penis is all the way in.

The tankie servers are a pretty big part of Lemmy and they’re pretty fucked up, too. I’m not even anti-communist, but that particular brand of leftism is definitely fucked up. They’re only somewhat tolerable because they’re very far from being in power and at least pay lip service to most progressive ideas, but they’re bootlickers just the same.

The strength of Lemmy is that servers can defederate, and you can personally block entire servers, too (though those personal blocks are rather imperfect).

Yes and no - those posts would go on lemmynsfw, and AFAIK most lemmy servers don’t federate with it.

And that’s supposed to discourage me?

Works for me, though, so it’s not intrinsically broken.

Could be because it’s an svg, i.e. a vector graphic! Power move by OP IMO.

A bucket of milk with some coffee and a lot of sugar is a great breakfast! You’ll have great shits, too, especially if you combine it with the beer-only dinner!
