I don’t agree. I think the Israeli’s needed breathing room to move forward with the Greater Israel project. The US was brought in to disrupt the Iranian support of Hamas. It was never about winning. It’s about providing military assistance to Israel for colonisation of the Middle East.

@[email protected] makes a lot of good points. The EU is currently funneling billions into the Eastern front. If the US was to set up shop in Greenland. Could the EU meaningfully push back. They are so entwined with the US any type of war would be a disaster, trade or otherwise.

If the US seriously invades Greenland there’s not a lot Europe can do. Almost all EU tech infrastructure relies on US companies. They’d be fucked.

Strap in. It’s about to get even worse.

As othets have mentioned, i believe it’s more important to have a clear understanding of what your personal values and beliefs are. Then search for organisations that align with your beliefs.

For example, some of my values are fairness, honesty, justice, equality and cooperation. I’m not sure if you heard about the recent Mullvad controversy. (The CEO made a large donation to political party and now they have enough funds to be relevent). The party is neither left or right and actually have good socialist policies including a 30 work week. However, they also push ‘national remigration’ i.e ethnic cleansing, removal of all coloured immigrants from the country, racial segregation, you get the idea.

This fundementally goes against my beliefs in equality and cooperation so i could never vote for them in good conscious. I have also stopped my subscription as i no longer want to support a CEO who funds such things.

It is up to you to decide what to believe in and what red lines you draw. Every organisation is susceptible to corruption. I would advise that your principles take priority over party allegiance.

If one truly believes all humans are equal. They should agree that the US regime must end.

Oh no! This happened to me too! Is this a coordinated attack? 😱

That seems quite high. How many people would actually watch as soon as they got the notification? Do their videos usually get 500k views in the first hour?

It wouldn’t have to be all or nothing at first. They could still post to Youtube to share the load. Start with 3 servers and see how they get on.

Wht not spin up their own peertube instance? The tech is there. Idk how it would work out cost wise. 25M subscribers is a lot but how many simultaneous viewers would there be? 1000 is manageable, would probably only need one server. Creators must take distribution into their own hands.

This is soooo fucked. In 20 years the rest of the world will have sanctions on the US for producing too much CO2. If he hates windmills why not invest in other green tech. $1B in gas infrastructure when we’ve already hit 1.5°C of warming is insanity.

Trump will get “assassinated” by “Iran” soon. JD Vance will take the helm, declare a national emergency, suspend midterms and go full boots on ground invasion of the middle East.

Maybe a bit too much tinfoil in my hat but this is the craziest timeline lol

Death to America means death to the imperial regime. It does not mean death to the American people. It is not a personal attack on you. It feels like you took it personally and starting throwing transphobic insults. If you want to make the world a better place. You have to do better.

That wasn’t very nice.

Dude you were being extremely transphobic. I actually went and read your convo. You were using the fact that Diva is trans so say some really horrible shit. No wonder she doesn’t want you posting in her comm.

Even if you differ in opinion. You actually do have to be nice to people and you do have to treat everyone with respect.

Wow yeah you’re right! How interesting. Do you think there’s a stigma around suicide which prevents people from seeking help when it is actually available?

Excellent points. I do think how the country is run has an effect on suicide rates. A country with a better welfare state can provide better care for it’s citizens. I think the meme challenges the belief that quality of life is poor in these countries.

I certainly wouldn’t want instances to defederate over content like this.

It’s true though. China and North Korea both have a lower suicide rate than Taiwan and South Korea. Wikipedia

What problem do you have with it?

Yeah having dependents does add another layer of difficulty. Get them involved lol

I think people can part-time disobedience. Of course having a support network would make things easier. Maybe I’m just having trouble imagining.

I do think destroying flock cameras is worthwile. We definitely need more style and I’d argue it’s quite substantial too. For every camera destroyed it drains the budget and limits how many more can be installed.

I can believe that but I think the more important metric is labour hours vs food produced. Less labour and more food means more time for other activities.

A support network for civil disobedience can never exist. The state would shut it down immediatly. And yet disobedience must occur if the system is to truly change.

This is where we find ourselves. Destroy flock cameras. Don’t get caught. Support Palestine Action. Don’t get caught. Use what little time is available to fight back. But most importantly, don’t get caught because no one else can afford to save you.

Indeed. I can certainly see the benefits of this type of activity. I’m not saying it’s a bad idea for mental health and a sense of community.

But we had better community in the past and still felt the crushing weight of capitalism. Fighting back means fighting back. Community gardening is the left side of the meme.

Sorry but community gardening as a solution is one of the worst I’ve heard. It’s very hard to achieve the same level of scale and efficiancy that large farms do with these small gardens. For instance, I see no machinery in this picture. Are we really wanting to go back to the days where farming is done by hand?

Sure it’s good for the soul to get together and grow things but as a means to feed society it’s just not viable.

Do you really think a small group of farmers is ungovernable? Peasant farmers have been exploited for pretty much the entire history of humanity!

Ungovernable means civil disobedience, it means sabotage. It does mean building community, but if your community only wants to farm, remember to pay the king after the harvest.

Where? Show me.

Dude wtf are you talking about?? Islam does not call for the death of non believers. You’ve fallen for propaganda. Muslims are not your enemy.

I heard the english version with images sits at around 110GB. Haven’t verified myself though.
