Wow, I sure am glad I know where to avoid dirty mods for skyrim now.

I can bookmark it so I know not to go there!

I made some comments on YouTube over the last week about LAPD and Israel, and all of them have been deleted without notice. Not even a warning of "hey you aren't allowed to talk about that" or "you violated a mysterious rule sometime"

Lemmy can succeed while breaking arbitrary ~~server~~ CoMmUnItY rules, and if you don't think this discussion has merit then you only want Lemmy to succeed in your narrow view of what "success" is, I guess.

Newsome has the authority to have state police and the CBI to arrest guard members who don't follow the order to stand down.

He won't, and I don't know if I believe the state police would side with a Democrat, but the possibility is there.

Of course, there are MANY things that politicians have had the authority to do to stop things since January, yet they haven't.

All radicals who are willing to spill blood are on Trump’s side.

I'm not so sure on this one.

I'd like to think I'm willing to use the tools at my fingertips to sling hot lead in defense of minorities and prevent a total takeover, however, I recognize that doing so myself is a death sentence.

Taking a stand just makes you a target in a very wide open field. You need more people to take a stand with you to be effective. How many people feel the same as I do? Willing to stand as a group, but not solo?

Organization is important. Organize or be sent to a ~~concentration camp~~ "prison". Organize or be arrested for protesting the regime. Organize or die.

Organized resistance is much harder to take down. With enough people, you wouldn't even need to fight. But you should absolutely be prepared to.

then that kind of autonomy is a fictional concept that is out of reach for any modern nation.

True autonomy and isolation IS impossible for modern countries. There isn't a single country that has access to every single resource needed for modern society, some things will always have to be imported.

A 1700s era society, however, is totally within the realm of possibility. Not much use for neodynium or lithium in the 18th century.

wtf are even 20 armed civilians supposed to do against trained military combat units?

Ask Vietnam.

Yeah I love how other countries like to mock the US for Vietnam, yet for some reason seem to forget about it when it comes to "us military would dominate their population"

I'm sorry but some random Douchebag from Omaha or some small town in Texas doesn't know jack OR shit about the countryside around the Sierra or Appalachian mountains, and all the fancy tools at their disposal didn't help them much when they had to search through desert for 20 years chasing down "terrorists"

Sure, the US couldn't beat vietman because they didn't know the terrain and would never be able to convince the people they're shooting at its for their own good.

But that totally doesn't apply when it's the US fighting against itself, somehow.

The enemy is both weak and strong, I guess.

But is it interactive?

Also I'm sure part of it for some people is the corruption of something that wasn't originally smut.

Wow, that's terrible! What mod is this? So I can avoid it? What a weird thing! That I'm definitely going to avoid and not go check out.

But I am a tad mystified. I do wonder what kind of lifestyle it is that leads a person to turn a videogame main menu into hardcore pornography.

It must be the author's first day on the internet.

If the internet were banned globally, porn mags would immediately disappear from shelves, and anything up to and including national geographic where they show cultures where clothing is sparse would all be hard to find, as the porn starved masses come out of their jizz encrusted caves to find something to give them that little hit of dopamine and oxytocin.

"hits harder than trumps tariffs" is a phrase I'm really getting sick of.

My wife watches shorts all the time and I keep hearing people saying that in them.
