Germany decides to leave history in the past and prepare for war

I feel like I’m doing ok. I want the Fediverse to happen and I imagine I have way more likes than dislikes. (I don’t know how to check.)
Sometimes, jokes don’t hit. Life has upvotes and downvotes and I accept both with the zeal of a competitor.

I think there's more to it than that. It's like you're trying to find the one joke that sounds like a bad - and contrary to the hive mind - opinion.
But meh, you do you.

Maybe I’m a bit contrarian, which grows old but I try to balance it with sincerity and light jokes. I don’t have any particular agenda when posting on Internet forums, to be honest.
You do you as well. I would nominate “Meh, you do you.” as the Fediverse slogan if I had such powers.

Germany's military, the Bundeswehr, recently got the all-clear for a massive increase in investment after parliament voted to exempt defence spending from strict rules on debt.
The country's top general has told the BBC the cash boost is urgently needed because he believes Russian aggression won't stop at Ukraine.
"We are threatened by Russia. We are threatened by Putin. We have to do whatever is needed to deter that," Gen Carsten Breuer says. He warns that Nato should be braced for a possible attack in as little as four years.
"It's not about how much time I need, it's much more about how much time Putin gives us to be prepared," the defence chief says bluntly. "And the sooner we are prepared the better."
War is coming. Best be ready for it.

You keep doing you. I found the joke funny.
If we're all too afraid of downvotes to post our true opinions, Lemmy will turn into another echochamber.

Good article.
I appreciate that this was the photo the bbc chose to express German concern over US Russian relations;
I also see Putin as quite very

With the Putin-loving, fascist AfD as the second strongest party in the country? We will see, but I do not have high hopes.
Fuck trump, he made world less safe in so many ways and now in addition to threatening Canada and Greenland he appears to be planning to stay a war with Iran.
And get this, the excuse is because they don't want to negotiate suspending their nuclear program after he broke previous agreement.

Yes. And they didn’t stop.

It was deserved as well. Brazil's players were cocky as hell.
At least before the match.

for the first time, Germany possibly gets to be the "good guys" in a world war! Quite a turnaround.
what is this from I must see this immediately

This is not just about security, this is about safeguarding the last bastions of real democracy.

It's true, most of your comments seem to have a positive upvote score and therefore more upvotes than downvotes. Your Yale comment seems to have attracted the most downvotes in recent time, currently "-14" "upvotes"/points (seems that some lemmy clients just call the them "points")
So actually it seems that currently Lemmy itself doesnt support showing one users total upvotes/downvotes as this would very much resemble the reddit Karma system and they dont want that.
However as all your comments and the total sum of votes for each comment(I think also the bare numbers of upvotes/downvotes are visible but most clients just seem to sum it uo) are public one could theoretically write a script or build this into a Lemmy client. However the 3 clients I just used to test this don't support this and probably don't want to.

very well could be.
I did not realize that graffiti was based on an actual photograph.
