I thought the real meta was to embrace open, decentralized systems instead of corporate fiefdoms that abuse your rights and sometimes roundabout demand your emigration to a state the owners like.
- darthrupert 4y agoThey need to emigrate because we need more good people here and Putin’s ilk does not deserve any of them. Of course, the ideal solution would be for those people to make Russia a better place, but this thread and many others seem to suggest that such a thing is not possible there. Which is obviously bullshit. Of course a revolution is possible. ”They’ll just kill everyone”. Right. Their previous revolution saw 7-12 million casualties. I’m certain that Putin would fall with a far easier struggle —- his story is far less powerful than what Lenin et al brought forth. The only significant thing he has is strength, mostly in the form of nukes and mobstery. Against a real internal uprising, that is nothing. You cannot fight your own people with nukes, and nobody respects a crime boss when their luck starts running out.
