Is the Jewish missionary thing a joke? I thought that Jewish people don't proselytise.

He was instrumental in radicalising me. I watched the "New War on Terror" interview, as a saved video file before YouTube existed, probably a dozen times. But honestly I started to move past him in 2003. Also most the books with his name as the author are just typed up interviews and are terrible to read. It's as if they tried to monetise the Chomsky name as hard as they can.

Half of the comments are people defending us, with language that's more persuasive than I could do myself. I'm honestly touched.

Honestly I feel a bit uncomfortable seeing nudity in films. I think "he's this person who's half my age, so agreed to take her clothes off and be filmed because her job required it".

Involuntary pornography, my guy. How are you not disgusted at the guy who was arrested?

[-] ButtBidet@hexbear.net 2 points 1 day ago

Sure probably. I really don't know enough. From the outside, I just assumed that right wing mega churches are the worst, but again I have no clue.

My fear was that I would meet a JW in the comments and they'd be like "hey we're not that bad".

The monarchy stuff is this year. The COVID vaccine video I ~~just posted~~ nearly posted is from 2021.

"Who's surprised that vaccines are now starting to hurt people, maybe kill them" [link ].

This kind of advocacy literally killed people.

Just to completely put the argument to bed, I'll find the most egragious example from his website, :

Global warming is in fact a scam perpetrated by globalists to control every aspect of human industry, population, consumption and demographics, as declared in the United Nation's Agenda 21 report and conclusions drawn at the globalist Club of Rome forum. After decades of uncontested propagandizing, the globalist agenda began to slow under the scrutiny of skeptics able to propose their objections en-mass via the Internet.

Under increasing pressure, exposing inconsistencies and bold faced lies, globalists themselves have literally conceded that their "irrefutable research" on all fronts is "flawed," (read: lies). [link ]

Another article:

t's not entirely accurate to call the Belfer Center merely a big oil representative that forms the spearhead of promoting the theory of anthropogenic global warming and the resulting Ponzi-scheme environmental policies proposed to deal with it. [link ]

On his page, although written by Paul Joseph Watson:

As we have previously documented, the manufactured threat of man-made global warming is being used as a tool of neo-colonialism in the third world, not only through the seizure of land and infrastructure, thereby preventing poor nations from using their resources to develop, but by literally starving poverty-stricken people to death.

You absolutely avoided my point that he has tremendously bad takes, including ones that have left possibly millions dead (antivax), and probably billions future dead (climate change skepticism). The guy is a hard right reactionary that sometimes critiques US foreign policy, something that the far right does regularly.

I went to Vietnam a couple times. If you hang out downtown in the city, you might get a random Jehovah's Witness or Seventh Day Adventist* try to chat you up. "Oh, we can't do missionary work out in the open, so we just do one-on-one conversations like this". Despite the lack of "Jesus saves, die sinner" signs in Hanoi, you can definitely find Catholic and Protestant churches in Vietnam.

The Western press likes to piss and moan about settler nation missionaries that go, without proper visas mind you, to spread their Western versions of Christianity to the DPRK, only to get deported. So am I allowed to enter a white people country without a visa to stir up trouble and expect no consequences???

I'm the furthest thing from an expert on Myanmar. I get everything I know from Burmese friends. But if you look into the minority people situation, many of them are being heavily proselytised by the worst of the Amerikan type. I don't want the Pat Robertson's the world anywhere near struggling people.

*I'm definitely not saying that JWs and SDAs are anywhere near the worst as Christian sects go.

So I bought a heap of cheap manufacturered soviet medals on Aliexpress, and I occasionally will let people in my org award them to each other for praiseworthy stuff. But now there's anarchists in my group and they might find that offensive. So what's the anarchist version?

I swear to God, this isn't a bit.

"Hey you read Settlers? Here's a thousand dollars".

Let's make a contest and set it up so only our tendency wins.

Let's also do a really elaborate yet fake personal challenge, and in doing so we'll prove Marxism superior.

mr-beast "I'm gonna lock this organiser in a vault with 100 Tesla workers.. I'm betting he can't organise all the workers before the end of the month."

Like badposting, but it would have an automod that auto banned anyone posting with the word "beanis" anywhere in the post. Someone could write a regular expression to do it. Obviously posters would try to get around the automod, so we'd have to extend it to any combination of 2 or more letters of "beanis". So "eani" and "anis" would also get bans.

You're welcome for the idea.

Hi all, it's whitepwrfan69, your lovely admin here at lemmy.balls. The mod team and I have been hard at work making sure that this place is fun and pleasant experience for all the users here. After days of discussion, looking through literal petabytes of data, we've decided the best course of action is to defederate from Hexbear. Although we very much believe in free speech, there are some pretty obvious dangers coming from federation with them. Let me list the top examples that me and the mod team fleshed out.

People that want to post screenshots of Twitter with zero engagement, or see some bullshit on r/conservative that infuriates you. Post it here. We don't care about rule 8.

Rule 8 fans, we're here to do you a favour. Just block this comm. I wanted to help the mods who have to remove Rule 8 posts regularly.

I'm not a particularly cool person, so please do offer a suggestion for the comm. Also please do apply to be a mod, as I'm not a super online person, and I live on the opposite end of the word to most Hexbearians.

Love you all.
