Your interests make sense for a person who’s always going to be in curated spaces online. And that’s not a bad thing since you’re used to having high-level, detailed, empathetic conversations with other people. Try to find intermediary interests between your current most passionate interests and those that you know will be more relatable to other people. This isn’t manipulative. People who fear silence (most Americans) tend to feel more relaxed if you’re one step ahead of the conversation.

Oh I missed which instance you’re on. World is basically for people who miss reddit. I only vouch for the rules on this particular instance. Which are stict, but fair. Lemmygrad and Hexbear will ban you no matter what if you disagree with a regular or mod. Same with World or the 500 other liberal ones. Good luck. ☺️

I used to look down on the whole debate & logic thing since I flirted with American policy debate in high school, which is disgusting game for charlatans. However eventually I realized that the issue was bad premises, me being too rude to people, and that nobody explained logic to me until I was studying comp eng 🫠

Be passionate about logic, self-critical, and kind. Then you never have to hesitate before striking a man down.

It’s great I come here to argue with people until I am forced to assign myself homework. Reddit just bans you over and over unless you are 100% chungus at all times.

The way you use the internet is called being a “reply guy” - major websites treat you as a problem to be engineered out. In addition, you can only use one app on your phone at a time.

That is not a good reason not to ask a question here.

Symbol is literally perfect

Who cares about URL legibility in 2025? 😂 Aren’t you guys busy making like 7 different apps where URLs are even less visible?

Epic thx

You should read Grover Furr’s book on Trotskty’s collaboration with the Nazis.

At this point, the MoD is taken a lot more seriously relative to the neoliberal central bank when it comes to determining economic policy. The MoD has a separate academic world from the highly westernized economics departments. This is the main influence apart from the PRC when it comes to balancing out the neoliberal comprador tendencies of the Kremlin.

Putin makes decisions based on a kind of mnemonic policy sentimentalism, if you get what I mean by that. He sees a serious comparison between Israel’s colonial predations and the Chechnya War, in that both are “struggles against terrorism”. However he also sees that China’s foreign policy of mutualistic development & building up the economy of other “developing countries” (overexploited countries, as Parenti would clarify) is the only way out of this global trap. What’s pushed the Kremlin and all of the industrial capitalists in Russia towards China is - ironically - the US becoming convinced that Russia is too large to not be brought to heel, for fear of its fully redeveloped industry and heavy petroleum resources and vast land reserves imbalancing the precarious dominance of the empire. Russian politics were oriented towards becoming a subimperialist ally of Europe for a long time. Now that it has totally foreclosed on that possibility, we see frantic “good cop, bad cop” ploys from Trump to reel them back in. The damage is done, though.

The oligarchy is done. Its power was predicated on access to US-controlled capital concentrations. The US severed this link itself.

Don’t think you will like that one 😅

Yes, like German citizens during the holocaust allowed it. Like you just sat on your ass throughout Israel’s genocidal campaign and continued to reproduce the political system and lifestyle that enables neocolonialism. I would estimate 80% of the US public is totally complicit. This is obvious.

You’re still salty from your other thread, I see. That’s a mute.

There are zero sites worth visiting that block VPN endpoints. Reddit is easily accessible without participation through Libreddit/Teddit/probably others, and I remember being able to use it fine with Mullvad, although my account was clearly being treated with suspicion.

Thx crude scans are the only way you can get a lot of the more fringe books on https://annas-archive.li/ etc.

It’s fine Snap, I didn’t need to be able to set a default browser or connect it to other programs anyways ☺️

Yeah also if you make a Zim wiki or convert a website into Zim then you can run that stuff too. If you use Emacs it’s easy to convert some pages to wikitext for Zim too

I keep my cards in a little fluorescent-colored zipper wallet that holds like 50 of them I got off Temu highly recommended

Yes yes, using the share button is also annoying because then you have two Jerboa windows open.

The democracy is there to waste your time. If your step out of line you will be treated like you’ve been seeing them treat black and latino communities this whole time. Why did you allow them to do that even if it was legal? A question that no doubt affronts you.
