Not sure if you are being serious. There are levels of socialism and social safety networks that still allow democracy and even capitalism. It’s regulated heavily, wealth is limited, and resources are shared to those who need it.

Bible Jesus fought systemic poverty & for the shunned in society, made it very clear how he felt about the rich & powerful.

It’s mind-boggling to consider neoliberal christianity. It literally goes against everything your god/god’s son fought for… I don’t understand how christians aren’t leading the fight against wealth inequality, systemic poverty, and improved social systems.

“How hard it is for the rich to enter the kingdom of heaven! Indeed, it is easier for a camel to go through the eye of a needle than for someone who is rich to enter the kingdom of heaven.”

“Then he will say to those on his left, ‘Depart from me, you who are cursed, into the eternal fire prepared for the devil and his angels. For I was hungry and you gave me nothing to eat, I was thirsty and you gave me nothing to drink, I was a stranger and you did not invite me in, I needed clothes and you did not clothe me, I was sick and in prison and you did not look after me.’”

Jesus was a socialist.

WWJD?

Jesus was a socialist.

I’m usually on board early but all the keyboard bugs made me hesitant.

Been on it for my iPad for a while. Time to hop on with the iPhone. Only a month until the new devices anyway.

Yo dog. I heard you like working so we made it so you strap your work onto your face!

Jesus fuck me in the ass…. it’s ALREADY almost Sept. damn.

imo - the ipad version of Memmy (and Voyager) are both wonky. Memmy doesn’t seem to want to resize images making them cropped all the time in windows. Voyager handles images better but has bugs when replying to threads.

I generally just use Safari now for Lemmy on iPad (and Memmy for my iPhone)

he’s literally the ‘This Is Fine’ meme.

he sounds like a person in an abusive relationship.

“yeah, he hits me sometimes, but Jimmy’s a good guy y’all! just need to give him a chance, besides… all my stuff is there, where would I even live?”.

Apparently Camel Group Co is one of the largest makers of EV batteries…

true! I poorly was thinking about poultry as a derivative of french words.

Tagger below explains it but also wanted to chime in that chicken is often “poultry”, but over time, we became comfortable with “chicken”.

of course there is! lol

We need a “Not The Onion” community lol.

I’m just letting the developer know.

Yep! But it can make ya gassy!

silly to ignore the ripple effects across the globe from the trump administration… We have seen a hard right turn in many countries, many people emboldened by what he said and did. Anti-immigrant, anti-muslim, anti-all kinds of crap. His hate spread far and wide, my friend.

As a global artist (and a divisive one to boot) who traveled the world many times over and had to deal with fans and haters from every culture, Sinead, more than most people, was acutely attuned to many white attitudes.

of course not, but Sinead… is white. As a white converted Muslim, she was probably hyper aware of the Islamophobia within her own communities, fan base, and just in general.

Her post, while the language was divisive, it was obviously written out of frustration and what she meant is pretty clear & obvious to anyone paying attention to Islamophobia, especially post 9/11 and then again especially during Trump’s administration.

I’m a white. A queer. An atheist. And a fan.

White people have a very long & deep history of saying some really nasty shit about non-white people, especially of the muslim faith.

super weird - hopefully it’s just an issue of “early days” but if the instances (kbin and/or lemmy) have these weird disconnects, it only prevents people from really getting into communities.
