Joined 22 days ago and racked up 250+ comments that at first glance all appear to be either Russian apologia or (more often) telling left-leaning people to not vote. I try not to throw the “Russian troll” accusation around glibly because there’s no way to conclusively say you’re not just a stupid asshole, but my dude you are doing one hell of a Russian troll impression.

Turns out chuds suddenly love DEI when it’s about making the Russian Military Industrial Complex feel safe and included in major open source projects. My heart goes out to the victims of discrimination willingly working for military contractors who now have to submit their Linux kernel patches for review like most people.

This shitshow brought all the tankies to the yard in lobste.rs too:

I especially like the dude relitigating the Continuation War from the orthodox Russian historiographical position that the Second World War started on 22 Jun 1941:

Edit I wondered about the curious term “genocide-siege” and lo and behold, reading the Wiki page on the Siege I found this nugget

On 18 March 2024, the Russian foreign ministry issued a statement via TASS to the German foreign ministry saying that the siege of Leningrad was a genocide.

The tankies are giving each other high-fives and are labelling me as a “Eurocentric Swede” which isn’t exactly the insult they think it is.

As a leftist, I don’t think I’ve drunk enough red kool aid to come around on Russia. I just don’t get it.

[Comment removed by moderator pushcx: Don’t pour gas on the fire by adding even more geopolitics.]

What does it take to cross the line of incendiary geopolitics in this thread?

I actually recently made a little script to preserve the nuggets of wisdomshit produced by the esteemed commentariat and then either deleted by them in shame or purged in righteous mod fury.

The deleted comment is this:

There are a lot russians who don’t support Russian aggression. Discrimination based on a trait people are born with, be it skin color or nationality, is racism. Linus is racist.

Can they also ban Israeli settlers from contributing to Linux or is that inconvenient for mossad agents to back door linux?

he has many responsibilities:

  • sometimes he disagrees with an article title that’s entirely accurate and people aren’t buying his assertion that it’s clickbait, so he adds a question mark to it to try to make the article look less credible
  • tone policing
  • ignoring blatant flagging abuse
  • adding sites and posters on YC’s shitlist to the autodead filter
  • his bonuses are almost definitely predicated on how many of Garry Tan’s many fash friends feel comfortable posting on the orange site

You missed his most important job, reminding everyone about previous discussions of PG essays whenever someone reposts a PG essay.
