Surely that’s not the important part of this post, is it?
crapwittyname@feddit.uk 2 weeks ago
It’s important, yes. Imgur is not accessible in the UK anymore.

It’s quite important if someone is posting something intended for UK viewers using a platform that UK viewers cannot access, even with a VPN (imgur blocks vpn access)

Thanks for asking, I wasn’t aware of that as well

I make sure to include an alternative video in the post body these days for all the blokes without a VPN
Flax_vert@feddit.uk 2 weeks ago
In the body? It’s a UK comm on a UK instance aimed at users in the UK. Most users are browsing from the UK, likely without a VPN. Why not do the decent thing and make the “alternative video” link the main one?
Secondly, Imgur blocks VPNs. You basically can only access it with a residential IP.
Of course non-UK users are welcome here, but at least show some consideration to the fact we cannot access the main links that you are posting. Also for the instance and comm moderators, for all they know you could be posting links to illegal content. We have no way of telling.

Imger of blocks VPNs so that doesn’t work either.
Really you shouldn’t even be using the platform because it’s become rotten

Psaldorn@lemmy.world 2 weeks ago
We’d answer but can’t see what’s going on because Imgur blocks UK because of our laws 👍🏻

Facism is invading europe

Fascism is always homegrown. Fascist movements support each other globally, however.

“Listen up 1940’s Poland and France! The nazis didn’t invade you. The fascism is always homegrown”.
Da fuck?

Fascism wasn’t founded in some far off land and infected Europe. Fascism was created in Europe and spread to the rest of the world. This is the fruits of their labor sown long ago.

Fascism is European… Europe is an inherently fascist culture. Mountains are reduced to gravel, and water tables are used for coolant, the land becomes uninhabitable and in the european mind this is called “development.” Capitalism, socialism, communism, regardless the whole universe and every living organism in it is open to this sort of insanity.

Well, at least they calmly explained their oppression and didn’t immediately just put five bullets in the guy unlike a certain country.
Not quite V for Vendetta yet, UK, but keep it up! You’re getting there!

Hello, we are going to execute you and your family in one hour, would you like a cup of tea in the meanwhile?

These laws and normalization of rights violations are the perfect substrate for totally-not-Hitler-2.0 to get elected and take the reigns on, preventing any checks or balances against his/her power…

I get that the British have had weaponized sarcasm for a while now, but from just that brief clip, I didn’t see anything to warrant an arrest

Is it also terrorism if i pour tea in my oatmeal?

What needs to happen is that all the people need to restrain the police. Gently. Not gently. I don’t care. They are a fraction of the population and they need to be scared.

Imagine being in the police and willingly carrying out this mickey mouse bullshit. No wonder nobody likes them.
