Is labour fixing it or are they just neoliberal fucks too?

Well that is part of the defense mechanism. There really are trolls, bots, agitprop etc. So we now anyone who is using an argument that Trump or Putin ever made, must be an enemy (genetic fallacy). And is hence is "fair game" to attack and lie about to protect the narrative. Being called a bot is like the ultimate dehumanization.

I don't think it's reddit culture, it's bigger than that. People are just badly informed and the disinformation is total. Journalists who even slightly deviate are fired all over the world.

Maybe there is so much noise now that people rely more and more on mainstream media that are completely captured now.

The complete post-truth doublethink the liberals are doing these days is shocking. There is no difference between MAGA Trump supporters and the vast majority of liberals these days. I don't think they are capable to be truthful any more.

It really shows what happens when the mainstream media is owned by oligarchs and use the right propaganda to hone in on the "emotional truths" of a group. For them it's about justice and and evil and a good. US supporting Israel commit genocide is evil. US supporting Ukraine become demcoratic is good. Russia attacking because of NATO expansion is evil.

So everything that doesn't fit with this narrative, that they are the good guys, is dismissed or rationalized. Easy when it just so happens if the arguments are made by their evil enemies. Historical facts simply don't matter.

Yeah. Discord can create FAQ and "threads" now that I believe work better for this. You can take some question and the answer and discussion and put it in a threat in some channel for issues. Presumably once you have a quality chat server, it is easier to add threads / articles / issues to it than starting from a forum.

Well, I believe the marxist-leninist definition of liberalism and "fascism is capitalism in decline" just means that everyone not calling for the overthrow of capitalism is a fascist. I don't find those definitions that helpful. And it doesn't really tell you how you should use your limited political power.

But I do understand arab americans who just can't bring themselves to vote for democrats. So there would be a reason 3. you're just so revolted and you just can't stand the disgusting feeling of supporting them.

For example Jake Tapper just spread racist lies about Tlaib. Tlaib criticized the Michigan US attorney office for prosecuting and showing biases against Pro-Palestinian Protesters (including Jewish protesters). Now they are smearing her as anti-semitic.

Woah just learned about this, space based cellular network with unmodified smartphones is pretty amazing!

Now I wonder if it's better to have bigger satellites in space, or smaller starlink satellites that need bigger receiver phased array on the ground.

Do these satellite communicate with each other over laser in vacuum?

A good quality open source "federated discord" would be as important as lemmy or mastadon. But there isn't much hype around it. Afaik matrix is still far behind discord quality wise and the architecture has limitations for anonymity and encryption.

Discord is just high quality and so easy to use because making a server is so easy.

I'm curious, how would copyleft license improve the quality of browser development? That is really about funding and management.

The USA was designed for minority rule since forever.

 

Nothing spectacular but an interesting car free alternative to suburbia with high urban density and local small shops. If large enough could have it's own school and more amenities.
