  • Because these videos are directed to the audience of a channel with an already established following base, not to someone who wants quick and low hanging fruit to spam a shit liberals say-esque instance with five posts a day.

  • The title is a joke. DPA has been a reliable source for news about the war in Ukraine since the day it begun. Next time please consider checking out if what you are about to post is bait before uploading it.

  • Democrat voters have been insisting since 2016 that Hillary losing to Trump was the doing of Russian hackers and Chinese shills, and not the inevitable result of putting a candidate with the charisma of a shoe against a person with the personality and rhetoric of a used cars salesman.

  • Ants are cool until you get a colony somewhere inside the walls of your kitchen and the bastards keep raiding any piece of food you leave alone for 10 minutes. I will never going to financially recover from all the ant traps I had to buy before I managed to get rid of them completely.

    Ah yes, but did you consider Bolshevism is a fascism?

  • Xi Jinping is one of the strongest and most capable revolutionary leaders I have met in my life. I think China is a socialist country, and Vietnam is a socialist nation as well. And they insist that they have introduced all the necessary reforms in order to motivate national development and to continue seeking the objectives of socialism.

    • Fidel Castro

    If someone is interested in what the Cubans’ opinion is on certain questions, he should ask the [North] Koreans. And if someone asks what [North] Korea’s standpoint may be in certain cases, he can safely ask the Cubans about that. Our views are completely identical in everything.

    • Raul Castro

    I believe Stalin made big mistakes but also showed great wisdom.

    • Fidel Castro (again)

  • Can you imagine the reaction if there was a similar game about a western leader?

  • 4chan and the Vaush subreddit are cesspits with no age requirement

    I don't know about the voosh subreddit but 4chan has a +18 age requirement and outing yourself as a minor will get you banned. This post's inspiration was partly on realizing that this site doesn't have a measure that a place as godforsaken as 4chan does get right.

    I would argue that the elimination of third spaces, and the inability to go anywhere unless you have a car is the entire reason behind why GenZ focused on the internet so much, there’s quite literally little else to do.

    This is almost if not exclusively an American problem. It could serve as an excuse for the US, but my org is constantly promoting healthy forms of leisure for the youth because we have plenty of activities to do around yet we still have kids on their PCs who don't leave their rooms unless necessary. There has to be more than that to it.

  • The problem is not if a 14yo can or not behave, I bet most can. The problem is what they risk being exposed to here, which between the frequent trolls who come here simply because we are MLs and the fact that most of us are adults (or close to being one) and behave as such with each other, this may not be the best place for them to be around.

  • It is as unenforceable here as it is anywhere else, yet almost all websites still do it for a reason. Leaving aside the efficiency of the measure in itself, as it has been said before, it can help us prevent getting ourselves in any potential legal trouble (which is probably why other sites do it in the first place).

  • Because I definitely haven’t seen any of the last one, any ultras who tried would get clowned on fast. Can’t recall having seen much of the first and I think we had one episode around the psychiatry thing a while but I think that was resolved reasonably eventually.

    Themes of anti-psychiatry have resurfaced once or twice after Amicese's ban. I have had some maoist revive a dead thread of mine to tell me about how the Shining Path was cool actually and never boiled any babies. The first one doesn't exist afaik, which is a source of shame for us as a left wing space with meme communities. Overall this post contains some things written humorously so don't take it all literally, but the main point still stands.

    That said there is zero way to enforce this. Kids lie about their age online all the time.

    Of course. I do not expect it to put a stop on all people who are too young to be here from being here, but nonetheless it would help at getting rid of some if not most.

    As to admins determining, unless someone is really acting like a pre-teen I don’t see any way for admins to know whether someone’s just being immature

    This measure is mostly aimed at those "unless" people.

    Admins already have power to act to remove those from lemmygrad who are disruptive

    I do not think we should let kids who are 14 be around here regardless of if they are or not disruptive, which would be a hole in your proposal.
