Because why would the bourgeoisie want the masses fighting each other? Though he's wrong anyway because the elite didn't promote anything that doesn't benefit them financially. While that includes turning the poor against each other, it also includes selling anything in any form to anyone regardless of want moral, ethical, or practical factors. If they can get you to pay them money for something with a rainbow on it, congrats, they're pro-lgbtq. Because they've got another subsidiary that will sell the hate-fueled psychopaths that want to kill you their Bibles and.
Classical Marxist/Lenninism is specifically not intersectional. They'll use race as a lever against capitalism but deny race as a social problem they must specifically intervene on. But it's also stupid to adopt. There's a reason TERFs are often fascist adjacent.
But this isn't the first or last time the lemmy devs go off the deep end. Come check out !meanwhileongrad@sh.itjust.works for a whole range of extremism the developers actively endorse and encourage
@nutomic@lemmy.ml can you comment on this statement, or at least its veracity? Kind of fucking alarming even if it was a private correspondence. Sure as hell gonna make it (more) impossible for me to convince my trans siblings to join Lemmy if shit like this is allowed to fly. And I'm sure a lot of us are in similar boats.
FTFY: Nutomic's stance on "rooting out" people who don't exercise liturgy exactly as you want them to. And people scoff at the idea of this being a fundamentalist religion, even though it uses the exact same social patterns.
Do I get to be in this shinigami shit now? Is there a way to mute all people who use that thing, or can I just wait for them to mute me? Either way seems like a win-win to me.
As a reminder, luckily code does not mean understanding... It's just the right words in the right order. The code itself is blameless, it's not great code or anything (and on request, I can be extremely precise in my criticisms), but it's good enough to be used for good things
And here I thought both transactivism and transphobia were clearly promoted by Russia to create discord in the west. It would kind of track with what Yuri Bezmenov was saying back in 1984: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=yErKTVdETpw
But if you disagree with the person who created the software you're using, why on earth does that bother you? It doesn't become unholy because of their touch. You can think of it like the old saying goes: "The Capitalists will sell us the rope that we will use to hang them".
He strikes me as the kind of person who uses words like “bourgeoisie” to sound smart and thoughtful… but uses them while regurgitating talking points from fox “news”.
I wonder if the lead developers of Lemmy, and other federated software, who are also admins and mods of instances and communities, realize that they too are part of the bourgeoisie they rail so hard against? Then again, they probably have a whole gymnastics routine for how they somehow are not part of the aristocracy.
