Yes, Marx definitely wrote a lot about “western chauvinism.” Perhaps you mean “social chauvinism?” Because it’s definitely very confusing language for the under studied. Perhaps you should pick up some German language.
Again, I just can’t help but be struck by the stark chasm between this liturgical internet “leftism,” which seems confused between the principals of pragmatic worker liberation, versus the fantasy that Lenin’s autocracy ever achieved anything noteworthy. But I guess populist fan service gets engagement, so who cares about results, right?
I don’t see it as left punching as much as calling out campists and .ml mods. I see it as holding up actual leftist values rather than forming a political philosophy around relitigating the cold war. I have never defended Israel, I have called out the issue with religious fundamentalism in this conflict. I have and will continue to call Israel an apartheid state.
Like I said, MLs literally cannot imagine the existence of political theory after 1924.
Also, my account is at least 5% femboy worship. At least do your homework.
I mean we have seen how the Lemmy devs approach certain topics, and it is definitely not with a preference for openness or free exchange of ideas. There are certain topics here which have a hair trigger for content removal and bans, for extremely petty and minor “transgressions,” so the motivation here seems pretty transparent.
Based on how …certain… Lemmy instances have handled themselves, the intention to deal with “Wikipedia content moderation” here is almost certainly not to make a freer version of Wikipedia, but to make heavily censored content enclaves with the same obvious editorial restrictions concerning certain topics you find on certain large instances.
And this has been happening for as long as human history has been written down. If you study anthropology, literally the first thing they teach you is that every generation of humans has said the same thing, to the point where some of the earliest written history we have is basically some version of this exact post.
Yet now I shit in a climate controlled box with no predators around.
I think about how things actually were 50 years ago, and how every generation since the dawn of written history has the same exact end times mythology and then correctly conclude that I am merely suffering from the same delusion as nearly every human prior to me.
I think there’s a real fear that federation can potentially leak a significant amount of user data, down to IPs and tracking fingerprints. Even if the version in the main git doesn’t do that, it’s not inconceivable that this kind of data mining could be quietly implemented as extensions/forks at some point. The threat surface just seems so massive with all the different servers involved in the trust model.
The value of tokens on the Blockchain are ostensibly related to the value of the apps that stake/work supports. NFTs were just another attempt at creating some real app/service value which didn’t have all the difficulty or intrinsic value problems that being a payment processor does.
The core problem is the same though. Speculative value of the tokens can’t really exceed the actual intrinsic value of the underlying Blockchain apps. For such apps to actually work as intended, more thought needs to go into anti-speculation mechanisms.
This is unfortunately how a lot of online privacy communities feel. Like it’s mostly performative privacy fan service. Often with a weird martyrdom thread running through it, almost as if people are mixing up the ideas of privacy, with simple rebellion against modern technology.
It’s 9000 pounds and is faster than 90s supercars. It’s complete lunacy, and I’m actually quite scared of how much more dangerous it’s going to make driving.
I’ve been using Linux4Tegra since before the M1 silicon and it’s really not that bad if you are at all used to build chain management. Granted, Nvidia does a lot of the initial heavy lifting here, but really to spin up a custom environment, you really only need to get the builds done right the first time and then it’s pretty smooth sailing.
It continues to lack real mandatory access control, for starters. You can deny system apps permissions and Windows update will just quietly revert them. It has a hidden “user” which cannot be restricted.
I’ll let my partner know that you think they are a fetish. They’ll get a kick out of it. If I was you I’d probably find your comment offensive.
