Polanski retweeted, without comment, a post on X accusing officers on the scene of “repeatedly and violently kicking a mentally ill man in the head” when he was already incapacitated from being Tasered.
Cops asking for solidarity, in beating an already incapacitated person, is peak irony from the epitome of class traitors.
Also interesting that the article didn't link the tweet, as is common practice with news like this...
I'm sorry, but all of us here on Lemmy have agreed that we need to see your official ID, a 20 second video of you turning your head left and right while blinking, a certificate of your DNA and any other relevant biometric data, a complete list of everyone you've ever had sexual relations with, your passwords to all online accounts, and the account number and sort codes of all bank accounts you hold.
If you don't provide this information within 2 hours we'll just have to assume you're a paedophile terrorist and terminate your access to socialising with any other human being online.
Thank you for your attention on this matter.
Please do not upload any of this information! If it wasn't obvious enough this comment is in jest! For the love of Christ burritos do not do what a fellow student at my university did and upload your password onto a publicly visible forum!
Democracy as a concept isn't a scam. Representative democracy, particularly in non proportionally representative countries, absolutely!
And most of us do absolutely live under a dictatorship of capital. But to besmirch democracy as a concept when that's ultimately what anarchism relies upon seems counter productive.
No,no,no you see years of propaganda have conflated the word anarchy with chaos therefore it must mean that!
I don't care that I have unlimited access to the world's information at the push of a few buttons that clearly show anarchism to be a broad political movement with mutual aid and cooperation at its core. I have preconceived notions that I must uphold!
I think it's fair to say there were many sources of dis/mis information and pinning it squarely on Russia is disingenuous. They very very likely contributed, but they're not the only outside power to meddle. Nevermind the internal greedy self interested campaigns.
Both. Although there's only one feddit.uk vote and one feddit.uk comment (besides yours).
Is there a meta community at all that is only visible to local accounts? I had a search last night but this seemed the most appropriate community.
I think your understanding of the situation seems to be about right, stitching together everyone's "he said, she said, they said" together. My concern is that Lemmy.World don't seem to have put the situation to bed yet, with their latest update saying they're still in discussions despite the anarchist.nexus admin stepping down and lemmy.world not following their own rules (according to this comment).
The crossposted thread isn't a call to defederate. But a question of future solidarity, that if Lemmy.world defederates from anarchist.nexus/dbzer0 over a single user would other communities defederate from Lemmy.world in response? To try and prevent the largest instance from bullying smaller ones.
I wanted to know the feddit.UK stance on such a question but you're the only f.uker to respond! (Although granted the most important one to respond, thank you!)
Does Feddit.uk have a position on Lemmy.World defederating instances over a single user?
Anarchist.nexus was the instance, which is the Piefed version of dbzer0. Luminous was the anarchist.nexus user/admin and MrKaplan was the Lemmy.world admin that defederated.
Funny how despite great interest among the population that got shot down...
Corbyn won the 2015 party leadership election to succeed him. The Labour Party's membership increased sharply, both during the leadership campaign and following his election.[3]
After Labour MPs sought to remove him in 2016 through a leadership challenge, he won a second leadership contest against Owen Smith. In the 2017 general election, Corbyn led Labour to increase its vote share by 10 percentage points to 40 per cent, their largest rise since the 1945 general election.
Following the short campaign, Labour again finished as the second largest party in parliament but surprised many pundits by increasing their share of the popular vote to 40%, resulting in a net gain of 30 seats and a hung parliament. Although Labour started the campaign as far as 20 points behind, it defied expectations by gaining 40% of the vote, its greatest share since 2001. It was the first time Labour had made a net gain of seats since 1997, and the party's 9.6% increase in vote share was its largest in a single general election since 1945.[113][114] This has partly been attributed to the popularity of its 2017 Manifesto that promised to scrap tuition fees, address public sector pay, make housing more affordable, end austerity, nationalise the railways and provide school students with free lunches.[115][116][117]
