The developer claims the tool is for cops, but anyone can sign up and use it for targeted harassment.

so in other words: the developer claims the tool is for those whose entire job is to engage in targeted harassment, but anyone can sign up and use it for targeted harassment.

Very cool, very impressive stuff. Definitely won't be used against already censored, suppressed minority groups.

Of course the situation might've been different. You wouldn't have dumb needless animosity on sectarian lines as they do today. Understand that by saying dumb shit like "The fighting would've happened anyway!" serves two purposes: a) to minimize the depravity of the British, the British Raj and colonialism in general and b) assumes that clashes on the basis of sectarianism is an inevitable pathway. Btw, partitioning is a tried-and-tested, colonial "divide and conquer" tactic.

Point is, a lot more lives could've been spared had it not been for colonialism that plagued the area, this is indisputable.

This is rather a colonial narrative. Do you think the fighting would've lasted as long if the British never colonized that area?

I wish you and your German contemporaries could apply the same ass sentiment to the immigrants demonized in your country that have narrowly escaped the same ongoing wars/genocides backed by your state.

I do recognize international solidarity, it's just that there's more emphasis on solidarity with the workers of the Global South and it doesn't include comfy libs, a majority of which are from the Global North. If that wasn't hinted at in my original comment, then it is explicitly suggested here.

one unforgivably tried to appeal to the imperial core, (if somehow you've succumbed to the memory-holing, there's analysis done here if you're not allergic to reading), and the other? Well... Let's take a look at what they've done by looking at the best of all time comments I've saved on this subject have to say:

So yes, the meme posted is incredibly based.

(BTW many thanks to the users in these posts, your analyses + your due diligence to always provide a source for your claims are excellent. Hell, literally all it takes is a single undoctored image.)

It doesn't really matter what you and I think. The wider public, as well as this community, recognizes that as a meme.

Here, have a look at many such examples of the same format:

They really perceive this as a game, and the libs are their cheerleaders. Here's a hoping to a very nice [REDACTED] [CLASSIFIED] [REMOVED] to these shitty excuses of a [ERASED].

Fucking wild that Lemmy made it on mainstream news.. of course it had to be some stormfrontian to get it to that stage..

There is no stringent definition of what a meme is or can be, despite what Merriam Webbster wants you to think. That there's a meme, plain and simple.
