Ok, you mean I could be getting paid to not panic about Threads? If you have a referral link, I’d greatly appreciate it!
Implying that anyone who disagrees with you must be a paid shill is not the rhetorical dunk you apparently think it is.
Which is to say, markets that actually matter.
That you’re being strongly downvoted for properly analyzing an unpopular perspective is disappointing but not remotely surprising here.
I might perhaps blame the people actually launching missiles at random trading ships, personally.
Info that is publically broadcast, that technically must be publically broadcast, that isn’t necessarily personally identifiable, and is only linked to a user-chosen pseudonym probably isn’t going to be found to have much of a right to privacy.
This may be a cynical view, but even if that does happen, the core ActivityPub protocol will still be intact and at worst be relegated to a small community of tech nerds, which is to say, basically the status quo.
Facebook, and literally anyone else, can already get all your content.
It would take all of a second to scrape your user page. Obviously that wouldn’t grant your IP address or anything, but neither would federation.
It’s publicly sitting on the internet.
Meta also doesn’t need to federate in order to do that, since federation just accesses public data.
If you casually state you’d wish for a third diaspora, you’ll have to forgive me for thinking that you’re not, in fact, fine with Jews.
And what happened to that last ceasefire, pray tell?
There are millions of Jews in Israel (or their children), right now, who are there because they were forcibly expelled from other Arab countries in the Middle East.
Why do you think there’s a 3000 year old synagogue in Aleppo, and only around four Jews in all of Syria?
If a new SCOTUS decides that marriage historically and thus always must mean a relationship between a man and a woman, yeah, I’m gonna fucking blame the voters.
Because the vast majority of Americans believe that a state of Israel has the right to exist in some fashion, which is all that Zionism means.
It does not mean wholehearted support for literally everything its government does, which Biden very much does not have. He and Netanyahu are not exactly friends.
Tell me you know literally nothing about how the American government works without telling me.
If, by “Zionist Jew”, you mean that he is a Jew that thinks that Israel has some right to exist in some fashion - which is what Zionist actually means - you are describing the vast majority of all Jews, and by extension arguing that no Jew should be allowed to be involved in this discussion.
Maybe I’m wrong, but I have a strange idea that you wouldn’t similarly support barring any Muslim from being involved in the talks.
Ukraine funding costs the average tax payer $330 a year, and given the top 1% pay 42% of all federal income tax, it probably cost you a fair bit less than that.
Genuinely, thank you for this. This actually helps me build a more informed perspective and I do appreciate it.

Flying is also dramatically cheaper and more accessible today than it used to be.
If you want the fancy treatment from back then, pay the prices people paid back then and buy first class.
