The only way to get into whatever version of heaven you believe in is to kill as many nazis and zionists as you can.

  • Yes, you do need to provide evidence for your claims.

    No, I don’t, because I didn’t make any claims. I don’t need to disprove your conspiracy any more than I need to disprove that some god or another doesn’t exist. Don’t be so fucking lazy, if you want people to think you’re anything more than some idiot on the internet, prove your own theories.

    You came back a week later to once again spout barely legible nonsense, probably thinking yourself particularly clever. A notion that is disabused by your seeming inability to understand even the arguments you’re making, let alone those of others.

    This is Lemmy. Nobody has to engage with you in good faith, nobody has to humor your demands. Nobody has to listen attentively while you spout conspiracy theories. And if you seriously think I “lose” anything by not agreeing with you simply because you desire me to, then it does nothing other than show how lonely and unfulfilling your life is. Until you responded, I had forgotten you even existed. A week from now, I will have forgotten again. You’re simply not relevant in any way to me.

    Now do us both a favor, and go away. Feeling pity for you is making me sad.















  • I honestly don’t know, I’ve only downloaded the archive with the simple English articles and no pictures. that was only like 900mb or so. I imagine there’s some sort of image optimization that’s done on all images uploaded to the site. And when you think about it, most articles don’t actually have images with them. So the 102gb might be the whole thing.

    I can say for sure that the archive does include at least some images, because it says it does. I do plan on downloading it at some point so I can make a local mirror of Wikipedia with my Raspberry Pi, but I haven’t bought a drive for it yet and don’t want to use one of the ones I have now for it because I have Ventoy and a bunch of ISOs on it.


  • Yeah, there’s no point in engaging with anything you just wrote, because you’re very clearly dedicated to whatever this wonderful and deep narrative is that you’ve crafted. But I will point out one thing you said that’s so very obviously wrong.

    All of your ad hominems

    I didn’t make any ad hominems. You see, almost every person who has ever cried that in an argument has had no idea what an ad hominem actually is. If I say “you’re wrong because you’re an Argonian, and you can’t be trusted”, that would be typical Imperial racism and also an ad hominem. But if I say “you’re wrong, because your arguments suck. and also, argonians have stinky fish breath”, that would be classical Imperial racism, but would not be an ad hominem. An ad hominem is an attempt to refute an argument by using a personal attack. It is not, as is commonly believed by internet keyboard warriors the world around, merely a personal attack.

    Oh, and if you’re going to call someone a nazi, at least make it someone the average person would believe is a nazi. If I was anything of the sort, I personally know three admins of my instance who would not hesitate to ban me in an instant, and one or two of them could probably dox me if they wanted to.
