That’s the normal stance on Lemmy.

It was founded by communists, so you’d better get used to it

He definitely has. A few years ago, San Salvador was known as the murder capital of the world, but nowadays it’s one of the safest places to live.

Lack of an algorithm makes finding new content much more difficult. And most people don’t want to spend time actively looking for stuff, they just want to log in, laugh at funny memes and look at pieces of art.

Also go forbid you have any criticism towards Linux.

The real reason is that German unification was done poorly and it benefited West Germany in a very disproportionate manner.

Most people and jobs migrated to west Germany and East Germany was left to rot.

Couple that with the fact that communism/socialism became a big taboo in Europe and capitalism’s faults were completely ignored, even when it was visibly failing.

When you ban and stigmatize the left so much, people will turn to the only side that actually acknowledges something is wrong, and in this case, only the far right has done so.

Which is why it’s a big irony when people come to Lemmy to complain about communism/socialism.

Like, man, you are on a decentralized network run by volunteers who don’t want to be monetized. You want to enjoy the benefits of socialism but at the same time complain about how bad it is and promote capitalism.

It begrudgingly half-way adopted things that were already common everywhere, then for the next decades went around the world spreading fascism and ultra-conservatism everywhere it went.
The US has always been a deeply regressive country

What are you smoking?

The US actively worked against all of those movements. It proudly supported appartheid and colonialism in Africa, propped up fascist regimes in Latin America and opposed the independence of places like Vietnam. The US government didn’t like anyone that implied blacks and whites were equal, and in fact anyone who dared to imply it was spied and silenced.

Most of those ideas were inspired by socialism and were supported by the soviet union, but you wont hear that awkward truth inside the american education system.

If you want Chichen Itzá to turn into a quiet library it’s not going to happen.

It’s one of the seven wonders of the modern world, you have the same experience if you visit the Vatican or the pissa tower.

There are many other sites in Yucatan that don’t receive as many visitors like ek’ balam and mayapan. Those are usually less crowded.

All of these had to be closed off because jackasses who tried to take away a piece of the monument, or because they didn’t tread well and fell down.

I’ve been there many times.

“My objection is to the authorities who have permitted this kind of presence at a heritage site”

Not allowing them would wreck the local economy. It will not happen.

No matter how much you try, Chichen Itzá will never be tranquil, it is visited by thousands of tourists every day, so it will always be crowded and full of voices.

Vendors are usually local indigenous people, and selling to tourists is their only source of income, it would be silly on their part not to take advantage of the situation.

Stucco is much more fragile and degrades rather quickly.

That’s why it usually hasn’t survived in these monuments and why it usually isn’t restored, it would cost way too much on maintenance.

They have it more much difficult right now, because Mexico’s president is Jewish, so they are basically calling her a race traitor

The worldnews subreddit is absolutely seething right now

I love how the people that told you a year ago to shut up about Gaza because it was hurting Biden are now trying to guilt trip you about Gaza

“I have yet to encounter a dem, especially here, who hasn’t called Gaza some version of an open-air concentration camp”

You weren’t paying enough attention then.

Your average democrat was firmly on Israel’s side until it became politically convenient for them to pretend they always cared about Palestine.

Edit:

“Pound sand with your appeal to hypocrisy.”

Not my fault democrats are hypocrites.

Democrats a year ago: Shut up about Gaza! there is no genocide, you are just being dramatic.

Democrats now: Ohh, poor gaza, why aren’t you doing anything about them? This is all your fault!!!

Funny, because I still see democrats blaming pro-palestine protestors for her loss
