Here’s one way it could happen
No, projects like the Fediverse require initial protectionism. If you let megacorporations into your project, they will dominate and gain control over how the protocol develops in the future. Google Chrome’s huge share of users has enabled it to get dangerously close to locking other browsers out of most of the Internet (the Web Integrity API shenanigans are just the start). Chrome also removed support for JPEG XL, killing that attempt at a standard and enshrining its own WebP. It’s called “Embrace, extend, and extinguish”.
If the Fediverse actually wants to grow, it must unite against this. Otherwise we will end up with a couple hundred thousand Fedipact hardliners and millions on Facebook 2. No progress will have been made.
Finally, a unique and strange American Balkanization map
America’s only been partially successful at kicking China out of global markets, and China began correcting their trade a couple years ago. Now trade with Southeast Asia is huge. It is equivalent to or bigger than the EU or US.
Return to buttons. This “infotainment” fad is seriously dangerous.
Reuters, NYT, NPR etc. are all using the opportunity to complain about Xi of course, but no conspiracy theories yet. I went with the People’s Daily article cause it doesn’t use his death as an excuse to write an opinion piece. Also it’s straight from the source.
I for one denounce the heinous acts of violence committed by the Haitian rebels. Stand with France!
And yet you support the genocide of Palestinians. Curious!
You are falling for atrocity propaganda again. No, Palestinian freedom fighters did not go “one by one” slaughtering babies.
Incorrect. Hamas, in accordance with the Quran, believes it is possible for Muslims, Jews, and Christians to live in harmony. Furthermore, in their updated charter they explicitly reject targeting Jews for simply being Jewish:
Hamas affirms that its conflict is with the Zionist project not with the Jews because of their religion. Hamas does not wage a struggle against the Jews because they are Jewish but wages a struggle against the Zionists who occupy Palestine. Yet, it is the Zionists who constantly identify Judaism and the Jews with their own colonial project and illegal entity.
Hamas rejects the persecution of any human being or the undermining of his or her rights on nationalist, religious or sectarian grounds. Hamas is of the view that the Jewish problem, anti-Semitism and the persecution of the Jews are phenomena fundamentally linked to European history and not to the history of the Arabs and the Muslims or to their heritage.
Firefox on Android with U Block Origin. Can watch in 720p and even listen to audio while in another tab. Stop using apps folks!
Fuck Google, I’m not paying them shit.
However, when Google and Amazon are nationalized then I’ll agree. Everyone should pay taxes which go into the government owned server farms.
Love the scare quotes lol
No, it is not OK to support Israel. They’re a genocidal state. You should support Palestine or at least be a coward and stay out of talking about it.
What about all the atrocities Israel just did in Gaza? Leveled a bunch of apartments, displaced a ton of families, and killed hundreds.
2050 is gonna be crazy
The esteemed Mr. Malthus wrote about it. The admirable J. Swift has also written a wonderful proposal for how we may deal with it.
My hot take is that if you sell your soul to the Nazis to fight for independence, you should be dealt with like a Nazi.
Comrade Zuck doing us a favor and ideologically purging the Fediverse of all the liberals by extinguishing all the collaborationist instances. o7
