Took em long enough

Iirc they’re ok but not amazing, proprietary and mostly good because they aren’t Google or Bing.

Thanks for finding the actual statistics. My initial feeling was that there are too many ways to interpret what the article was saying, and playing silly buggers with the statistics.

I think you might over-estimate how common that would be if such hate and opinions were not supported by the state or at least not ignored by the state, but it is an understandable concern, but I see a few possible arguments against it.

• the lack of such freedom of mobility and movement of culture would let cultures mix and have more interaction, which has been shown to increase acceptance of different cultures, and reduce hate.

• there will almost always be cultural differences, and dislike between groups, but especially without class struggles it will be less common for them to elevate to the levels of lynchings, and outright conflict. Hell, even just looking at the US, it has a decent amount of separate cultural regions but not much conflict based on that. It is mostly interpersonal conflict, class-based, or from reactionaries to minorities.

Yeah, though I think currently only emissions cutting should be implemented, mostly because damage reversing tech like DAC take green energy that could otherwise be used to more effectively cut emissions elsewhere. Once we start getting excess green energy to do such things, then it should be implemented. It should still be researched and developed now tho

Like united as in sharing the same governmental structure (or lack thereof sometimes), freedom to move and travel anywhere, and probably more or less similar ideals for such a thing for actually work.

There still obviously would be things to fight over and probably some amount of small-scale civil conflict. There would also still probably be areas with with similar cultures, but with softer and more grey edges and mixing.

This is also more or less just the Marxist ideal of things, I have slightly different ideals personally. Mostly that there does need to be a fairly defined state and governmental system to maintain socialism/communism, help organize large-scale resource allocation and transport on a global scale, and provide structure for civilization-scale projects like progressing human knowledge and science, space travel and exploration, etc.

I think the point is there just wouldn’t be Nation-states anymore, just a single united world. Partially because communism is definitionally stateless and classless (by Marx at least).

Yep, for literally anything in space or aerospace he is my go-to. I also like Angela Collier for physics, she makes great content.

I mean, I guess, but the choice is blazing support for genocide and still support but slightly less with a somewhat better chance of support for a ceasefire or wherever. It’s a fucking shit choice, but imo there is still a correct one.

I also think being anti-electoral is problematic, idk how much of that y’all are but that’s a different conversation. I’m probably gonna make a post on c/actualsocialism soonish to try and understand the positions of mods/active users of this community and that one (as I understand it they are sister communities), what is meant by democratic socialism not being allowed (I used to call myself one but don’t currently, mostly just cuz such labels are more confusing than helpful imo), and how y’all would define my current positions and how they differ from the broader ones of the communities.

(You don’t need to respond to those questions here though as I don’t wanna clog up this post with discussion of them)

At the very least the Dems are making a little twig fire in the middle of the floor but the republicans want to have a gasoline and magnesium fire.

Is criticizing Kamala Harris for such genocide/things she has done and supported in the past good/correct? Yes.

However, this close to the election trying to raise anti-kamala sentiment is also bad, and I get more general anti-kamala vibes than measures criticism. Russian bots also kinda tend to post such things to try and get people/leftists to vote against her which is why you were accused of such.

I assume you will call me a lib and too focused on electoral shit, but the thing is that Kamala is universally better on everything than trump, even on things like Israel/Palestine. She may still be bad on a lot of things, but is still a lot better than trump.

I think because simpleX is more open source, self-hosted, and maybe slightly more anonymous. Not sure how the usability trades off for that if at all because I haven’t used it (I mainly use signal and discord)

It also doesn’t seem to be a mass migration by any means, just that simpleX is a bit better if you are super hardcore about your privacy.

Oops lol It was very late last night when I commented

Young trump and Epstein. Tbh not sure why they used that pic

Nestle moment

Where do you find that menu? I can’t find it on my end

Sure, it still happens regardless, it just makes it easier and more likely to happen.

Watching the full/raw debate? Absolutely, besides a few random people maybe. Since good clips and headlines about the debate should reach some undecided voters at least

(Edited for spelling)

As an outsider to a lot of such corporate things it sounds like they both suck a lot, just in different ways.

Exactly, there’s already plenty. I do my best to scroll as fast as possible and not interact, it will be unfortunate if this makes it worse tho
