No one was saying that?

Even before this deal, France and allegedly Israel (the UAE too, but they're not western) was already funding the RSF. seems the west has already made up their mind.

Not implying that russia is a better choice.

Jesus fucking christ, i knew the holocaust was horrible, and terrifying, but that sounds like hell on earth. It's much more different and heartbreaking to hear his story directly, instead of just reading about auschwitz.

For three years too?

Please tell him that i'm sorry that he had to go through that.

Firstly, my condolences for your great granduncle.

Since it has been 80 years for him now, does he remember his experience at Auschwitz as just another old memory? (Albeit, a quite important one) Or does he still remember it as a traumatic memory, as if it happened only a couple of years ago?

Sorry if this sounds stupid, or insensitive.

 

My favorite flag of all time. It was firstly used in the Arab Revolt, designed by sir Mark Sykes.

After the Arab Revolt, it was used for the Kingdom of Hejaz.

Most famously, the flag went on to inspire most flags in the Arab world, and the legacy of the flag lives on through the flags of Palestine, Jordan, Sudan, Kuwait, and more.

Bluesky may be a circle-jerk, but at least it isn't a literal neo nazi platform. We still have a ways to go till the fediverse goes mainstream.

Accelerationism. Literally everybody but them understands this is a fucking stupid idea.

This even happens every US election season, a lot of them think the worse candidate will bring on the glorious revolution™! and finally bring them a communist utopia. Never happens, because they do nothing to even advance their own cause lmao.

No no guys, i promise after 3,000 more years of a capitalist totalitarian dictatorship, we will finally transition to real luxury space gay communism!!!!

Read theory, shitlib. /s

Hm, good point, It seems I over complicated the whole process.

Thanks for sharing your post by the way, it's very well written.

Good read, thanks for sharing. But i think both of us are over estimating the tech literacy of the average user. Many of them look at software, or ideas, or platforms at surface level, and don't care much about how software works internally.

The average user isn't going to care about federation, and might not even understand it. To us and the OP of the reddit thread, we're familiar with federation, and have gotten used to it. It seems easy for us.

This is why i think the bluesky exodus is going to be useful, because it may inspire new users to learn about federation, and later on, the fediverse.
