I take it you mean Douglas Leith who is the first result?

Whataboutism? Where did I say this makes what Google is doing better? They all work together. God you people are dense.

Microsoft and Apple absolutely are ad companies lmfao.

Just imagine what Microsoft and Apple are getting thru telemetry

Lol, you are a redditor. Mastodon and pleroma and bluesky are all twitter. Misskey is twitter. I wipe my nose with kleenex and google things on searxng

Way to make this about you lol. This is gonna be hard to understand considering I raised the subject but the emotes don’t really matter. It is funny what the choices of these specific emotes say about the site, the contradictory explanations for why they were made. But I don’t want to engage in a prolonged discussion about this community, thanks. I’m sure you’d have plenty of other pals in this thread who would be eager to discuss your own site drama! And edit more emotes together! Changing the Russian flag to that of the Russian military or similar nonsense.

It’s like seeing an instance has blocked a bunch of stuff but not burggit. Which I was unforunate to discover today in all. Preemptively block it.

Making up a one-off guy to get mad at is excusable.

Using the spectre of a bunch of made up guys to prop up the fallacious argument that burning the Israeli flag is antisemitic? Hilarious.

I totally love that for you. So, my original post about what the emoji choices represent about the site were spot on. I don’t know why anyone quibbled.

The biggest problem with burning the star of david to the subset of Zionist liberals who are worried about this, that is. Maybe, if the people burning the Israeli flag were appealing to your compassion, it would matter what you consider problematic.

But what has your conditional compassion accomplished in this world?

Right that was where I was coming from on Russia. Smashing the barely livable post USSR state because reactionaries are in power doesn’t solve shit. Hell we got here by smashing the Ukrainian state with BLACKROCK but now I’m just trying to be clever

Somehow I think this has a lot more to do with the accusation of antisemitism being weaponized successfully, if you’re going to combat the allegations of antisemitically burning the Israeli flag by taking them seriously and using a make believe flag instead lol

It was a weird comment, unclear, I meant in the case of a hypothetical large scale war and people getting dragged into the same kind of BS about how Iran’s govt is reactionary (obviously is on domestic shit, but a clear attempt to undermine the antiwar movement or justify sanctions and regime change shit like that needs to be treated as such)

But idk it feels like this is already WWIII so my vibes are off. I stand by my point about the Israeli flag

Don’t you think it’s giving Nazis a little bit too much power and legitimacy for people to justify feeling uncomfortable around burning Israeli flags because they contain the Star of David? Way to make an ongoing genocide about their pearl clutching lmao.

Did you just roll dice and pick a tendency? I would appreciate if you refrain from the inane

Ah my mistake I was scrolling past 400 cartoon characters. I guess that’s a more consistent application of the theory of imperialism that leads people to apply it to Russia. Can’t wait for the burning Iran flag.

This is ridiculous. You pretending that is the Israeli flag does not make it the Israeli flag lol.

I do not consume or serve “nugggets”

Once religious symbolism has been appropriated by Nazis, it’s okay to burn their flag lol. You don’t have to make up “the swastika is a religious symbol” tier jank to justify using a cryptic and unknown symbol instead of one that has power.

Clearly nobody is worried about alienating Russians from the website. Big 🇺🇦🇵🇸🌹 vibes coming off this instance

Already saw that lol, contemptible stuff

Wondered why that’s the only flag that gets censored? Religious brainworms or worse? Don’t really care.

Also a double “one of these things is not like the others” with Russia being the only one of the states that isn’t settler colonialist garbage. It doesn’t take a rocket scientist to figure out what’s going on with these symbols.

I find it very funny you have a burning Russia flag but no burning Israel flag 😂😂

Documentary about how people trying to get to China during the famine were instead trafficked into solitary confinement in South Korea and only allowed to leave if they agreed to go on a game show, no this is not a Paul Verhoeven movie this is reality: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ktE_3PrJZO0

Look at how tired that fucking lawyer is man he just wants these people to be able to live

Do I make money off blogging? Not by shitposting about people online, or explaining to people why shows they listen to are drivel. For instance I went into the archives of a war show someone recommended and looked up what they were saying about Ethiopia around the time their PM got banned off facebook.

I have published some stuff which I guess constitutes working in writing articles but that’s not how I make a living primarily.

I’m just a hater on my own time mainly, saves me the effort of listening to bad shows by immediately finding their flaws lolz
