This is an anarchist comm. You don't have to be an anarchist to post, but you should at least understand what anarchism actually is. We're not here to educate you.

No shaming people for being anti-electoralism. This should be obvious from the above point but apparently we need to make it obvious to the turbolibs who can't control themselves. You have the rest of lemmy to moralize.

I demanded a precise request about how do you determined Truth Social is an “official US government communication.” If you say that is the case, you must provide legal contracts and receipts.
Now Röhm, answer the question: is he a President or a Dictator?
You are within your rights to randomly kick someone in the balls, metaphorically, so it's ok that you're being mean for no reason, but don't over use this privilege. I think we're all feeling this.
I am not being meaner to Nazis, that is correct.
How should we bury our metaphorical Eva Braun?
I had no idea we had her body!
🤦♀️
You're a FEMALE Japanese Nationalist? Holy shit what a moron. Nationalists hate you and don't care that you're Japanese too.
I guess wanting to emigrate off a fascist archipelago means I am a nationlist. But now I know you want to kill my escape too.
Oh you want to leave Japan? Then why are you wanting the US to protect Japan from the Chinese, if you're not there? You should take your family where you end up going, so that you don't have to think about it as much.
Because I have less fortune comrades here who are disabled enough to never qualify for permanent residency elsewhere. I am their anchor and rock.
We are stuck between a Chinese or US subjugation.
Well no, I glossed over that because I didn't want to explain at length how it's a dumb thing for you to ask me about. I can't provide a rigid definition, because there is no singular rigid definition of an "official government communication" - that's a description of what it is, not a strict categorization of "type of communication".
It's an official government communication, in that an official for the government (trump acting in his official capacity as president) was using it to communicate information about a government policy. That's... as far as it goes, buddy.
Explain again how this makes me a Nazi?
Since you want to redefine how the US sanctions government equipment to your interpretation on how a private Dictator uses his Mastodon instance, I’ll operate under the current assumption your continued fascist praxis in this network to mean: 〝I approve my President’s plan〟
This has absolutely nothing to do with this discussion, that's about the utilization of government resources for private use, not private resources for government use.
Also again, my downvote record isn't... approving trump's plans, or fascist praxis, or... whatever you're rambling about. This wild shifting in attempts to justify your accusations is getting a little unhinged, how does any of this make me a nazi?
A private dictator uses a private instance.
The US government doesn't own, or operate a Mastodon instance.
There wasn't anything official about the abduction AFTER the Whitehouse declaration.
Claiming a private dictator’s words on his private communication is “official US government communications” is preposterous.
No need to reiterate dictators can lie and fabricate information on their private communication networks.
I'm not sure what using a private instance or the government not owning said instance means to you here - it is a private instance, it is a privately owned instance, that doesn't change anything about it being used by the president to make an official communication. If he used his personal phone to call a news org, it would still be him officially communicating. The medium doesn't matter, the content and context does.
And... they do that on their publicly owned communication networks, too. Trump does that all the time. I'm not sure how this is at all relevant.
side note:
I'm guessing that's a typo? I'm not sure what you mean otherwise since there's been absolutely shitloads of official discussion about the abduction of Maduro, the military action, etc. etc. including things like press conferences
Because a president using a non official communication is not “an official US Government Communication.”
The fact you keep calling him a president instead of a dictator abusing is use of “official US Government Communications” is far more revealing on how you view his actions of tax paid office hours.
You're grasping at straws here dude, the reason I'm not calling him that is because he absolutely does not have supreme power. Not wanting to water down the term by calling any authoritarian bastard a "dictator" isn't a sign of support, it's a sign that I care about what words mean. By any strict definition of dictator he isn't one - he's a tyrannical, rapist, murdering pedophile bastard but he does not come close to meeting the most widely accepted definitions of what a dictator is.
(edit:)
Also, no, what? Do you mean using a non-official means of communication? Because that's not a thing, we've been over that already. Otherwise this just doesn't make sense and I have no idea what you're trying to say.
Hey, I don't know you as an individual, and I can't say what I would do or not do in a Japanese internment situation... I don't know anything about Japanese culture except anime, and I don't like it, so I probably wouldn't like modern life in Japan either I guess, but I have no idea. I also don't know anything about Japanese-Americans, except that they wear different clothing styles than Japanese nationals, especially at the airport. Anyway. I'll try in some way to prevent the government from murdering you, if you're in America and I can do something about it. Whatever this is, shouldn't be discussed here. I hope you're ok.
Mf, send more nukes to threatened Xi Jiping with. He keeps bordering us for sport.
You're in literal Japan, and you're asking me for help with your beef with the Chinese? Backing out.
figured as much🙄
No need to roll your eyes. Don't you guys regularly invade and subsequently massacre your neighbors, just like we do, except worse? Nobody should ever help you do anything to the Chinese.
For the US empire that subjugated us after two nukes?
