Bagger 288 is the only hope we have

[–] X@piefed.world 15 points 1 week ago

Knew it without even opening. A certified classic.

[–] brown567@sh.itjust.works 10 points 1 week ago

That was beautiful =)

"mud wizard" is his English name. In the original sindarin his name is „der Mönch von Lützerath“

As a bonus if you watch this you don't also really need to watch that new animals doing drugs special as this covers most of it.

They still exist and still play live. But site before 2015 only in wayback machine.

Germans don't hate themselves, their government hates them.

[–] Natanox@discuss.tchncs.de 79 points 1 week ago (3 children)

Show me a country where this isn't true.

[–] GreenShimada@lemmy.world 25 points 1 week ago

Somalia. There isn't really a functional government to speak of, so if the people even acknowledged the UN-backed central government exists, that would be something.

[–] lurch@sh.itjust.works 3 points 1 week ago (2 children)

It's not continously true for Germans tho. When the green party makes it into the ruling coalition it always feels they care and a few good things happen for the benefit of most.

[–] bob_lemon@feddit.org 5 points 1 week ago

And then the next government takes those good things, which they have massively decried when they were the opposition, only to reimplement the exact same thing with a slightly modified name.

Noo, the Bagger 288 is designed to fight against godzillas and doom robots from the future!

Any incidental global destruction is mere completely unintended collateral damage.

[–] lauha@lemmy.world 13 points 1 week ago (1 children)

They say Beelzebub himself fears the Bagger 288

Bagger 288 is there to safeguard all mankind.

[–] GenosseFlosse@feddit.org 7 points 1 week ago

Any person who gets in its way is soon to be de-meated

[–] Zyratoxx@fedia.io 6 points 1 week ago (1 children)

civilisations rise and fall but Bagger 288 is eternal

[–] lauha@lemmy.world 7 points 1 week ago* (last edited 1 week ago)

Bagger 288 can never be defeated. Not even by time or entropy. That is not dead which can eternal lie.

[–] BilboBargains@lemmy.world 3 points 1 week ago

The logical evolution is Carpet Bagger.

[–] supersquirrel@sopuli.xyz 15 points 1 week ago

looks at an image

Wait this isn't a picture of the AfD?

[–] Lembot_0006@programming.dev 14 points 1 week ago (1 children)

It eats from one side and shits to other (France) side. All is fine.

Spits out French wine.

[–] gergolippai@lemmy.world 12 points 1 week ago (1 children)

Looks like Hambach, which is an absolutely humbling sight: https://maps.app.goo.gl/D5Qhp7CkHCgYebaA8

[–] Capybara_mdp@reddthat.com 2 points 1 week ago (2 children)

Holy hell, that hole could fit two Manhattans.

[–] gergolippai@lemmy.world 8 points 1 week ago (2 children)

And iirc it's something like 500m deep... absolutely awesome human achievement apart from the tiny little problems with it (it keeps eating up neighboring villages plus it produces brown coal which is the worst kind, environmentally speaking)

[–] SkyeStarfall@lemmy.blahaj.zone 5 points 1 week ago (1 children)

It really is a funny feeling, where it looks genuinely awesome (in the literal sense) but at the same time is also horrifically destructive

It's the economy, stupid!

[–] theuniqueone@lemmy.dbzer0.com 6 points 1 week ago

I mean weird way to state it but basically true.

No, this isn’t true, but it fits the British and US stereotyping (dating back to +/- 1946) quite well.

[–] Tuuktuuk@piefed.ee 2 points 1 week ago

More about this here. So yes, they do that. And nobody does that unless they hate their country. Or at least their lungs and climate because lignite is a catastrophe for both.
