There’s a saying in the ex socialist republics. “Those who don’t miss the USSR have no heart, but those who want it back have no brains.” Think that about sums it up.

I’d watch that movie.

It amazes me the only two people willing to take a shot at him were right-wing nutjobs. Where are the leftist lunatics?

We’re not allowed to enjoy Harry potter anymore because Rowling is a mega TERF.

We’ve always had those. They’re called “serviced apartments”.

Same. I spent most of June trying to find a lemmy instance to join. Quit cold turkey on 1st July along with nuking my post history. Keeping my account till 31 July just in case they decide to revert my deleted posts.
