  • Could you link some sources for that massive resistance? Wikipedia says there was very little organized resistence for most of his rise to power, and the regime was SO popular amongst the populace, it prevented even anti-nazi's in the intelligence services from acting on their underground networks.

    What we're seeing with the current fairly widescale open resistence is far beyond anything that happened in Germany.

  • And the first three episodes are free to watch on YouTube!

    The rest can be watched through other means 😉 🏴‍☠️

    The rest (or all of them) can be watched through other means. Yarr, matey 🏴‍☠️

  • Damn straight 😌

  • I don't think we'll be getting any backup this time, it's up to us.

  • Consider that Germany was in far more dire straits economically, and Hitler's approval was crazy high even towards the end of the war (something like 60 or 70%). So the entire time the opposition was outnumbered.

    In comparison, Trump's approval is around 45%.

  • Lemmy.ca also created a secondary piefed instance recently.

  • The IWW used to have members pull security to route out planted agent provocateurs that were starting shit in mass strikes or protests. We will need that again.

  • I see in your edit that you confused us for a different instance, but I want to mention regardless that Slrpnk.net has 3 active admins, it's not just poVoq (Kris).

  • Excellent article by Drew, I hope it helps push the needle in the tech sector.

  • As an addendum, I will say I agree with the argument put forward in your link that pacifism is a death sentence against a government willing to kill en masse regardless of what effects it would have on the world stage.

    I don't think the USA is at the point where nonviolent methods are ineffective.

    And look at Chile in 2019: https://itsgoingdown.org/submedia-presents-interrebellium-the-estallido-social/

    They brought their authoritarian government to its knees with continued non violent (in the sense of lack of firearms) resistance combined with an effective general strike.

    They ultimately failed because the liberal parts of the resistance fell for the reformist bait, but it demonstrated that you don't need violence to win if you're able to educate the movement that reform is a trap.

  • This is the correct response at this point.

  • Quite excited to see how this develops ^^

  • Piefed also uses PostgreSQL. He was mentioning that the limiting factor on either platform is the DB, meaning that the parts written in Python will likely not be a limiting factor.

    Piefed also has quite impressive optimizations in other areas as well compared to Lemmy or even Mbin.

  • This guy started out with fairly innocent parodies (I think), but he ended up falling down the alt-right pipeline, and is now a hard right christian. Any of his newer stuff is done to harm who he's mocking, it is no longer good faith parody.

  • The worst thing about it is, even if you switch to Linux for privacy yourself, you'll also need your friends to switch as well, otherwise if you message them on their desktop, they're a liability, as the damn recall will be there too, leaking your data.

    It'll be hell for activists.
