I think there's a lot of high-quality content coming from a few impressively active users on here. I wouldn't want to be without it. Then again, each to their own.

But it seems wiser to me to just block whoever bothers you.

He'll be dead soon enough, until then he can easily leave Florida whenever necessary. He doesn't give a shit.

I'm Scandinavian, so I come from a country defined by workers unions in the post-war era. The Norwegian post-war social democratic agenda was defined by a group of socialists while locked in a nazi concentration camp. They were locked in there not for being centrist.

Recently, the labour parties of Scandinavia have moved towards the centre, so I am alternating votes between the socialist left party, the communists when it makes sense (they have a problem of ageing ML members, but their younger people are mostly fine), and the Greens. The Greens are in some ways further to the centre than the Labour party, but they have their reasons to compromise.

The labour party is, however, still left of centre. We're a representative democracy with four parties in parliament describing themselves as the centre, so it's not very hard for us to make the distinction.

And recognizing that capital can be a useful way of organizing one's economy under controlled conditions is different from capitalism.

The whole take is just stupid, and always made in bad faith. It doesn't take American relativism for social democracy to be a left wing ideology. The generations before me faught like hell against the capitalists in order to give me rights, and implying they were not leftists because the social democrats left the comintern is ahistorical.

Furthermore, there is no "to be fair" in relation to sending your political opponents to labour camps to basically have them killed. This is something tankies will never understand.

And Anarchists need to read about the Spanish Civil War and learn to keep the fuck away from tankies. I love you guys, but just because you're right on a fundamental level doesn't mean you can ignore history.

It did originate from Twitter. Somehow Twitter at the time considered it wise to split it into a separate entity, and Dorsey was fine with not controlling it. And then Twitter was sold, and Dorsey and Bluesky grew apart from each other.

They did! Thank you so much - I tried to Google, but all the pictures were awful. Love yours!

Case in point.

non-sectarian "left-unity"

Lol. I'm a social democrat. They'd send me to a camp if they had the chance to.

Then again, when put in charge of things they sent each other to camps as well, so maybe this is what tankie unity looks like.

I often see people say that pointing new users towards instances with a lax attitude to defederation is a good idea. I kind of understand the rationale, but I'm not sure I agree. Pointing new users to an instance federated with Hexbear seems to me to be a terrible idea.

Most that is released is mass produced trash, sequel or not. But for sure there's a bunch of sleazy suits trying to make a buck off nostalgia and name recognition, there's no disputing that.

Counterargument: Beetlejuice Beetlejuice is fantastic.

I guess hieroglyphics were to the priesthood of the time what Latin is to the Catholic church today. A dead language that you artificially keep alive in order to situate yourself in some sort of historical legacy.

It's a pretty bold move to launch an open source service like this, especially one that is as complex as a video sharing site. One would think a gradual increase of user base would be easier to handle than a sudden influx of people at a moment when one has been scrambling to meet a deadline.

Good thing they/he is not afraid of postponing the release and making sure it's ready. And if it works well it will be one hell of a release. Fingers crossed. :)
