      What do you mean? There’s only 21 comments, only one top level comment is inciteful, and pretty much everyone is calling them out. There’s nothing unusual going on in here.

    I tried searching for “BSD memes” but all the results are for some cartoon by the same name.

    FFS. Fucking file system. Kind of like motherfucking website . Fucking file system could be an example of a filesystem that strikes the perfect balance between being not too complicated while being not too shitty.

      Nothing. There are just a lot of people in my Mastodon circle who use things like OpenBSD.

      It also seems to be a popular OS to try and use during this year’s Old Computer Challenge.

    I’m sorry, but why does my comment get deleted, when I criticise Aral Balkan for comparing the Genozide in Gaza with the Holocaust and Israel with Nazi Germany?
    Both those things are just wrong, not just politically but also historically. Regardless of your position in this conflict.
    You might not have to agree with me, that those comparisons are antisemitic, but they are wrong and moreover extremely problematic. And I really don’t mean to say that the Israeli government isn’t a bunch of right-wing racist and there isn’t a horrible humanitarian crisis going in in Gaza.
    But Israel is not Nazi Germany and the Genocide in Gaza is not like the Holocaust. And everybody how is saying that must rightfully be criticized for it.

      Please provide the room with a definition of “meme.”

      • @Jiggle_Physics
        link
        22 months ago

        original definition: an element of a culture or system of behavior passed from one individual to another by imitation or other nongenetic means.

        Second definition: an image, video, piece of text, etc., typically humorous in nature, that is copied and spread rapidly by internet users, with slight variations.

            is this something that is being passed around with variations over time? If no, it isn’t a meme, it is just a screenshot of a joke. However, if this was based on something and is a variation of it, or something that has seen the spread and change aspect, then it would be.

            Is this some new cultural element, or system of behavior, that is being passed along? If yes, then it is. If no, then it is just a screenshot of a joke.

            This is just a screenshot of a joke.

        There isn’t a single definition. However, memes need some sort of idea with a visual that supports the idea. This is just text and doesn’t even need the image. It would’ve been more accessible if it was a text post.

        Do I need to? People and likewise the internet aren’t defined by a dictionary. This image doesn’t even have the necessary visual to be considered a meme. It is just text inside a image. You don’t even need the screenshot

          But the meaning of words is described by a dictionary.

          you don’t need to but you should. and if you’re not going to use a word with the correct meaning, it’s better to not use it at all.

      Israel is committing genocide and it’s not antisemitism to oppose war crimes.

        Can confirm, just wish other people around the fediverse would realize you can adore and speak out against Israel without being antisemitic. To clarify I mean that can you speak out against genocide AND that you don’t have to say shit like “fuck the Jews”.

        Been fighting that bullshit since Israeli Trump started his genocide.

        They’re not committing genocide, they’re technically committing ethnic cleansing.

        Read the definitions.

          Genocide is the destruction of a culture, or ethnicity, in whole, or in part.

          This has lead to the forced dispersal of these groups to be labeled as genocides, as well as, forced conversion from their cultural and ethnic roots.

          So forcing people to flee their land, forcing them into schools designed to cut them from their culture and language, etc. have been recognized as forms of genocide.

      Its not antisemitic to criticize israel for the genocide of the palestinian people.

    • @apfelwoiSchoppen

      What’s antisemitic is conflating Jewish folks with the state of Israel committing genocide.

      In both of those posts he is comparing Israel’s atrocities to Nazi Germany’s. If he truly was an antisemite then Nazi Germany wouldn’t have been such a good comparison would it?

      There’s other reasons to dislike Aral but these ain’t them. My list is more like:

      • If you have the audacity to contradict him he’ll block you in 0.01s
      • he feels entitled to FOSS projects catering to his very specific edge case
      • he always finds a way to complain, even when it’s objectively good news, big doomer energy
