Look I’m not gonna dox the mf’er, but the primary force behind the .ml instance, and frankly all of lemmy, spends a lot of time enjoying the privilege and benefits that come with being a well paid software living in a “global north” social democracy. Thankfully, they have since cleaned up their profile, but previously, it was trivially easy to figure out where a certain person lived, at least the metro, what company they worked at, and that their income range was well into the 6 figure plus.
If you are new to lemmy, maybe take a bit more time to develop your understanding of the ‘lore’ that underpins this place. If you are already familiar, please understand that basically the core development team of lemmy, and admins of the dot ml instance advocate for a kind of authoritarianism they’ve been shielded from their entire lives, and that they’ve enjoyed extraordinary privilege that has only, historically, been available to the global north, and specifically, a kind of democratic socialism that affords them incredible breadth of opportunity. And its fine that they have contradictions and don’t live their perspectives; but I’m going to exercise a significant degree of criticism at this disconnect.
Tell me the difference between resistance and performative resistance?
