There is one and only one way to deal with Nazis

I archived this cancerous bloated paywalled shit show of a website just on principle
Why is so much of the internet terrible now fml
Cory Doctorow can explain it to you. He coined a term for it which has now become widespread, “enshittification.” And it’s all about money.
[Deep breath in…]
Wealthy men that are perpetually insecure in life because their fathers didn’t show them any outward affection when they were children are blindly and joylessly driven to increase a bank balance that they couldn’t meaningfully decrease in a thousand lifetimes in the hope that it will make their fathers ghosts smile and pat them on the head (ghosts who don’t even put out the effort to haunt their children anyways)
I’m dizzy, what just happened?

When’s the last time you donated to Lemmy.world?
We’re all donating our time and attention to Lemmy, which is worth something even on a non-commercial site.
But yes, some of us also help with the costs and chores. I appreciate everyone who does but I also appreciate everyone who makes this an interesting place worth chipping in for
only if there are ads
I asked chatgpt & it said this: " The internet can feel overwhelming or negative at times due to various factors like misinformation, toxicity in online communities, and the sheer volume of content. It’s important to curate your online experience by choosing reliable sources and engaging in positive communities that align with your interests and values. Taking breaks from the internet or limiting exposure to certain types of content can also help maintain a healthier online experience. Don’t share sensitive info. Chats may be reviewed and used to train our models. Learn more ChatGPT can make mistakes. Check important info. " I think that a better answer might have something to do with commercial interests.
That’s a whole lot of words to say almost nothing.
thats machine learning for you
Yeah. Flying squids answer was better.
One thing I thought generative ai would be better at is staying focused. I think this starts well but in the second half has too many unrelated sentences
Ah yes, right-wing authoritarianism that helped cause mass immigration from regional instability thanks to ignoring climate change and sowing global conflicts… Let’s just give the fox the keys to the henhouse.
It’s foxes all the way down. Just a question whether Russians or Americans get their slice.
Thanks to social media, youth unemployment, an uptick in asylum seekers, ballooning energy prices and oodles of nationalist right-wing cash, Macron is no longer the only politician with the regal ability to play Jupiter on TV. There are now a record 4,005 candidates running in the first round, with many fabled divinities to choose from.
There’s your problem. Defund the rich.
That’s the problem. When the tech bros have more money than a king, who’s to stop them?
It’s also the fault of neoliberal governments around the world for actively looking down on middle class people for not caring as much about the climate, refugees and other matters that you can care about when you actually have enough money to have the time to care about those things.
…the French, in principle, rarely distinguish between fact and impression.
The author comes out swinging and still manages to bore quickly.
We still have hope this week end for the Nouveau Front Populaire, the left wing alliance. There might still be a chance
The author showed his bias when he wrote
Indeed, the polls indicate Le Pen’s awkward and aggrieved racist coalition—along with the inventively loony left-wing anti-Israel alliance dubbed the New Popular Front—is positioned to form a government that could defenestrate Macron’s Ensemble! coalition in the 2027 presidential election.
What a shitty article
along with the inventively loony left-wing anti-Israel alliance dubbed the New Popular Front
I thought we were the Popular Front?
People’s Front!
Whatever the result, what cause the rise of far right will be still there. We have to continue to mobilize after the election this time. Organized for your interest fellows
The rise… Of the far left???
I think that’s a typo or something
I think so too but I just wanted to be sure, looking at their profile they do have a left wing sensibility so id be surprised if they meant that
yea sorry. It was a typo
No worries :D
What’s (not) funny is that the French far right is just slightly to the left of the US Republicans.
Well, populist proto fachos so…
I feel sorry for migrants in general, they are their primary target
I think a quick look overseas will show you it’s migrants, the queer community, women, and to a certain extent any intellectual. Now where have I seen this before.
For now…
The French political system, casually referred to as the “Republic of Friends,”
Where does the author get this? I’m French and have never heard of our system called as such - especially not by a French person.
A search returns this article alone. Bizarre. Is he trying to make this happen??
ChatGPT had a fever dream again
I hope they really don’t like the ruzzians. That way, when the time comes, they can be properly utilized and disposed of…“guys why are there so many seeds in our uniforms? I don’t get it”…

Amazing take. Back in the 1920’s you would have looked at the rise of the NSDAP in Germany and gone “not surprised given the jews there”

What happened to “not wasting any time on me”?
Edit: this dude is having a normal one
Guy’s profile picture is literally of Joseph Goebbels. I don’t think their opinion has much weight, nor are they worth spending time arguing with
And the person has other comments putting on full display who they really are.
So yes, this is definitely a “block and move on” kind of thing.
Please remember to report before blocking.
I use Sync, I couldn’t find a report button. Maybe I just couldn’t find it cause I’m dumb, but absolutely report then block.
ETA: if you’re using Sync, highlight the comment, then tap the three dots. There’s a Report button like second down from the top.

Seems like a very sane person.
There are illegal migrants in every country. Why should the far right be voted on one issue alone. It’s not like their other policies are good (and i’ll put my hand on fire to say that I’m pretty sure it’s inmigration policy will be bad too)
authoritarians grow stronger every day. God help us all
If people rely on their imaginary friend, we’re so fucked…
It’s a figure of speech. No need to get your knickers in a twist.
What are the reasons for this? I’m out of the france loop
[deleted]
All of the western democracies are telling their people the reason their quality of life is declining is due to immigrants and the disabled and poor. A lot of people seem to believe them. I agree its about inequality and bringing the far right in will only accelerate the process.
Right, I see your point. I also wonder sometimes if the excess of social media consumption and the battle to gobble more eye balls has somehow influenced people making them more susceptible to manipulation via charisma and populist opinions, I’m not sure how different it is nowadays than a couple of decades back. I might be wrong about this anyways
Macron made an irresponsible gamble, at the worst possible timing, without taking in account his current lack of popularity. To no one surprise it blown up in his face.
Wait, which gamble? I’m not well informed on what’s going on over there
Basically, his party got beaten so badly at the European elections (barely got half of the far-right votes, and almost got the third position after the Socialist), that he decided to trigger a “Dissolution”, which literally stop the current assembly mandate and call for flash-election. His gamble was to make himself the only alternative to the far-right by counting on the left division and the fear of the far right…
Which blown up to his face since the left kinda united itself and the far right still got a good advance. Even worse, this time its party got third by a long shot, and may loose a lot of its seats at the National Assembly.Okay, I think I saw this somewhere but I didn’t really read further into it
