This is the kind of stuff that proves that the american oligarch regime has gone full on degenerate.

It will take very strict and no bullshit rehabilitation and justice procedures to cure them of their degeneracy.

IIRC, when the URL (on the Mastodon side) is the first line, it pushes a text URL as the heading in Lemmy.

Image attachments work too, if you’re only using images.

The issue is you can’t have a Lemmy URL, a text heading and a custom thumbnail image in a single post.

This creates problems if you have both a Lemmy community and a Mastodon account and you want post only from the Mastodon account (with the post also going to Lemmy).

I spent a lot of time experimenting with this and I couldn’t find a good solution. I stick to posting to Lemmy and Mastodon using separate accounts.

Where the fields in a Lemmy post (heading/URL/Thumbnail URL) are inputted correctly from a Mastodon post. URL is not even possible unless it’s part of the body.

They can indeed federate, but IMO it’s not useful beyond simple posts.

There is no way to “sync” the text heading/URL/thumbnail.

The overwhelming majority of russians (let alone putin and his regime) are incapable of good faith actions when it comes to geopolitics.

No, you’re just trying to deny the Holodomor and mass killings by Stalin. Stalin was no better than Hitler, perhaps even worse.

Believe it or not, you can condemn killing of Jews (and Poles), while also recognizing that the USSR was a brutal, genocidal shithole. And it’s not solely Stalin, Lenin and his thugs were just as bad.

No one is buying your white-washing of the Soviet created genocide of Ukrainians.

I am not discussing Finland specifically, but this point needs to be raised. How was the USSR any better than the Nazis?

They Soviets organized the Holodomor, mass starvation of million of Ukrainians.

I believe Stalin killed more soviet civilians than the Nazis.

The Soviet Union (especially pre-Khrushev) was an atrocious entity. This includes both Stalin, Lenin and the people who ruled in between. They are monsters.

The Soviets even collaborated with Nazis in the first two years of WW2.

Not denying the historical commentary w.r.t. colonialism. It’s still a conspiracy theory to think that western countries currently want Haiti to be unstable and be run by gangs.

As I mentioned elsewhere in this thread, they might not want to bear the financial burden (I would speculate you need several billion USD a year for security and institution building), but it’s not like they actively benefit from Haiti being unstable.

That being said, I am open to alternative commentary from someone living there (unfortunately I’ve never been to Haiti).

What active sabotage?

This is conspiracy theory level thinking. The “West” very much wants the situation to stabilise. They might not be willing to contribute enough resources, but that’s the same thing as actively wanting Haiti to be ruled by gangs.

What is this word salad?

Do you even understand your own gibberish?

We found a connoisseur of russian culture. Well let’s hope the russians introduce such a connoisseur as yourself to their fascinating use of champagne bottles.

At this point, the admin stopped responding to my messages despite being active elsewhere on lemmy.

This is not true though. This was clarified by the feddit.uk admins.

I was the Admin who was contacted by Ada and that is a mischaracterisation of what I said. Our rules still stand that we won’t allow transphobia.

Unfortunately, as the ruling on the interpretation of the law has recently changed, we are going to have to figure out how we approach this and that is going to require a consensus amongst the Admins, and an agreement on our wording going forward.

This is going to take a bit for us to work out (although not too long, we’re getting there, I have been active on Lemmy but I don’t call the shots, and we need input from all Admins) and if, in the meantime, LBZ feel we aren’t moving fast enough and they need to defederate from us then that is obviously their right.

This is a ridiculous statement.

Justifying mass summary killings of Ukrainians is wrong. Alleged claims of nuance is a red herring.

The tankie scum have never lived in Ukraine (or russia) and don’t speak Ukrainian (or russian). They openly deny Ukraine’s right to self-determination and white-wash russian atrocities with regressive bullshit about “the BIA faked it!1!!”.

then ghosting Ada

Source? That’s not what the feddit.uk admins said.

You joke and stuff, but the fact remains that Ada is ok with the support for russian genocidal imperialism among tankie instances (Grad, ML, hexbear) and even has no issues with russia’s brutality against their LGBT community.

Theatrics about “TERF island” are clearly a much bigger priority than actual abuse of LGBT folks (and cis folks for that matter) at the hands of the russians.

My bad, a little misunderstanding on my part.

We are good.

Your post implied that all countries outside of the west sided with China when this is clearly not true. I am so adamant about the because I have first hand experience with this.

Even in Africa there is a lot of pushback among the population (not necessarily the elites) against Chinese imperialism. Sri Lanka is another example where there is a measures of opposition to jingoistic Chinese meddling.

China has conflicts with countries like India and Philippines. China backs the brutal junta in Myanmar. China invaded Hong Kong.

This is a pretty simplistic take. A western tankie take if you will.

Many countries in Asia have suffered from invasions and conflicts with China.
