Okay there is a place for political jokes, and this one just really didn’t land in the right one, I think.

“Low technology.”
I think of “low tech” as something that you could with some materials and knowledge do yourself out of a garage.
I would not take an improvised vaccine made in someone’s garage. Not until we were in real fucked up post-apocalyptic scenarios.
Neither is the complete prohibition of a substance that can’t be fully regulated as it literally grows on trees. (Is easy to produce by yourself, I don’t mean that tobacco is literally a tree.)
Case in point, the Prohibition
To recap, you — a mod — proudly admit you don’t have the attention span to read the things on the forum you’re a mod on, even the ones you’re actively taking part in?
Hey, you’re free to disagree with me.
Ofc I’m going to judge you for being pro-Russian, as that’s just shameful. However, I assume that you won’t be able to answer whether you are or aren’t, despite pretending that you already have, even though people who have the attention spans to actually read the thread can clearly see you haven’t — you’ve spent a lot of energy avoiding it. This reminds of the time I was in an elevator with a drunk guy who loudly shat his pants and then proclaimed “it wasn’t me!” (And it was very clearly just the two of us in there.)
Since you’re very fond of listing links and sources, I’ll show you how argumenting is actually done. (Since your link lists were nothing but "I hope you never read any of these because they’re not actually even related and I can’t come up with an actual argument.)
You misuse the word “symbology”.
Likeness in symbols representing different things aren’t two different things using the same symbology, they’re the same symbol which represents a different thing.
We’ve been using the Swastika since the Iron Age. When did they form the Nazi party again?

Awkward how you pretend to be so knowledgable, yet make these cringe “arguments”, because I made you upset by asking you whether you’re pro-Russian or not. Something which you absolutely refuse to answer. Weird, huh?
Approximately so
“Do you really think we’re on the Russian state’s radar”?
So again you’re pretending propaganda only exists in the form of people who are financially compensated or mandated by the Russian state. That’s insanely childish of a take. You either have really bad reading comprehension, or you’re engaging with me in bad faith. Latter is against the rules, I believe?
It’s weird how you can pretend to have asserted that you have implicitly agreed with the fact that Russia has broken international laws with an illegal war of aggression by invading Ukraine. If you’re not pro-Russian, then it should be rather easy to say “Yes, Russia has broken international law.”
Even with your notion of propaganda being spread purely by paid actors, you admit that there’s a non-zero chance of that happening on Lemmy. Now, IF there was such an actor here, would they have a problem with admitting that Russia has broken international law with a war of aggression by invading Ukraine? I believe they would. Wouldn’t you?
Since I very clearly expressed I’ve gone through conscription, enjoyed it, and am currently a NCO in the Finnish reserves, very willing to defend my country militarily, but you assert you’re “using the term appropriately”, I have to deduce that you’re probably using the gay slang term “chicken hawk”, meaning you’re assuming I’m gay, I’m an “older male”, and into twinks?
Also, then you agree that nazis are either actual neonazis, or possibly the current horrid fascists like Putler and Netanyahu.
I’m pro-Palestine and pro-Ukrainian, mostly straight, not even in my 40’s and in the Finnish reserves, and I’m definitely not an actual bird, so… in what was your asinine babbling “appropriate”?
There are approximately zero Russian trolls
Good one, mate. Are you trying to say bad actors who are literally employed by Russia, but ignoring all the people who’ve bought into the propaganda enough to propagate them despite not getting financially compensated by the state of Russia?
Are you seriously trying to say the existence of Russian propaganda on Lemmy is zero percent? I sincerely doubt that, because I’m sure you’re aware of just how ridiculous of a statement that is.
“You’re being utterly ridiculous by asking one simple question, to which I would avoid the answer were I on the side of Russian rhetoric.”
You’re making a mountain out of a molehill. I asked a simple question; do you agree that Russia has broken international law with a war of aggression by invading Ukraine?
It really doesn’t necessitate getting upset nor all the equicovation. What’s more ridiculous: listing a bunch of links trying to imply there’s no such thing as Russian propaganda when asked if you think it was wrong of Russia to invade Ukraine… or… asking someone a simple yes or no question?
You’re the one who said “you chickenhawk nazi lovers.”
It’s not unreasonable to ask for elaboration for such an incoherent attempt at an insult.
I think the clicking is rather the part where you agree to allow your history to be checked, essentially.
Sorry for linking Reddit, but… https://www.reddit.com/r/askscience/s/Ws3Mr45qFV
Whether Russia broke international laws by invading isn’t even a point of debate: I’ve yet to encounter a single person who thinks otherwise. If that’s the point you’re trying to make then congratulations Captain Obvious
Then you’re an absolute dogshit mod, either not looking or not recognising Russian trolls who are plentiful even on Lemmy.
Whether Russia broke international laws by invading isn’t even a point of debate
So you’re still refusing to answer the question?
I don’t, but apparently you do.
So who exactly are you calling nazis?
I proudly went through conscription in Finland, because we know what Russia was capable of.
So who are these Nazis you speak of?
“We”? Yes, I know you’re a mod. I’m shaking. That makes this avoidance of your way worse.
Disagreeing with someone isn’t against the rules, is it? How about intimidating others with implications of “if I don’t like what you say, I’ll ban you”?
You should know I disapprove of people who refuse to acknowledge Russia broke international law with a war of aggression when they invaded Ukraine.
I believe it’s less about clicking the box and what happens after you’ve clicked the box.
I think it’s before, not after.
So you refuse to answer the question of whether you think Russia broke international law with a war of aggression by invading Ukraine?
Huh. Seems weird. Almost as if you’re avoiding taking a stance. I wonder what would make you be avoidant of that particular question and motivate you to question the legitimacy of the conflict Russia started but is currently losing?
never said such thing
No, it’s what is implied. Perhaps you don’t know the word?
So you think Ukraine is wrong to defend itself from Russian military aggression. You’ve admitted that.
The only people who think Russia is in the right about this are propaganda trolls and brainwashed Russian iidjits.
Well, there’s also a connection between Prometheus and Lucifer.
Prometheus brought fire. “Lucifer” means “light-bearer”.
Forethinkers are usually punished.
