Tarrio wasn’t in Washington, D.C, when Proud Boys members joined thousands of Trump supporters, who smashed windows, beat police officers and poured into the House and Senate chambers as lawmakers met to certify Biden’s victory.

Of-fucking-course

Probably people who haven't seen it before and it's not exactly overshadowed because of how sparse posting is on lemmy compared to reddit.

It's a quote from a video game.

Of course it doesn't support the claim, lol. That was the point :)

The fuck is a 'great' assassin, anyways? How do you measure that? Kill count? Kill quality? Not getting caught? That would immediately hurt anyone who is known. Lol.

I'm curious.

Do you think he's not supporting Israel in their genocide of Palestinians, or do you believe Israel is not committing genocide?

I don't think anyone would be forcing you to use a different app store.

This would just make the option available for those who want to.

More nations should join the EU.

And NATO.

The Fediverse is working just as intended. (lemmy.world)

I used to think that there would be 1, main 'Fediverse' with all of the 'big instances' connected to each other. The recent Threads debacle has shown me otherwise.

The point of the Fediverse is that there is no one single entity, or group of entities, dominating it all.

Right now it feels like whatever the big instances do, we kind of have to go along with to be a part of anything. As the Fediverse grows, there will be more options to suit different types of users.

I think it's fine if big instances federate with Threads and it's fine if they don't. People can just join instances that align with what they want. It's not like defederating means being cut out of the Fediverse, that's not possible.

Great design. I'm eager to see how it plays out.

Does France have a terrorism problem? (lemmy.world)

It seems like France stands out among terrorist attacks in the news. Is it because they are more likely to be critical of Muslim culture than other European nations? Is it because there is a security failure allowing terrorist to come in and organize better?
