Liberalism is the ideology of the ruling capitalist class, and supports their “freedom” to extract surplus value from wage workers.

It has many defenders (a few even among the working class!), just like feudalism / monarchism had some peasant-class defenders.

Anyways the class contradictions between workers and capitalists are irreconcilable, are there is no sense trying to “unite” with our exploiters and class enemies.

Gottem

Same, I use endeavorOS. Its just arch with a nice installer.

😯 why is this not a thing yet.

Nope, peaceful protests have never worked at any point in history, and you are sold that they do, because it serves the interest of those in power who do not want to be challenged.

Bullies target the defenseless, and always pick weak targets. So unarmed protestors who pose no threat, are going to get attacked far quicker than an armed and disciplined group.

But unfortunately US cops can kill anyone with impunity so no one is safe even if they do defend themselves.

Depends on the instance. A lot of instances let themselves be overrun by US reddit reposters, filling every community, and they moderate none of it.

At least on lemmy.ml we try to keep US content quarantined to US-specific communities.

That’s a really long AI post that I’m not reading.

Most of these concerns are being alleviated by all the work @nutomic@lemmy.ml is putting into join-lemmy.org , which is our centralized onboarding site.

If you have suggestions there, you can open up issues on https://github.com/LemmyNet/joinlemmy-site

No, other apps like matrix and XMPP suit this need better, and have already put thousands of hours of work into perfecting secure group chats.

Mods / admins can link those groups, or email addresses in their community sidebars.

@nutomic@lemmy.ml brought up https://github.com/LemmyNet/lemmy/issues/5871 , which would at least be a way for communities to explicitly link to each other, and we could possibly create a superset of Subscribed.

In 1.0 there is the Suggested filter, where admins have a preset / chosen list of curated communities they like, and a way to view all the posts from them.

I’d rather not do complicated algorithms to try to figure out interest / community adjacency based on user activity, as this could get really complicated and also probably show things people don’t want to see.

I totally agree that content discovery could be better, but I’d like it to be explicitly chosen by the user, rather than generated. So I think the best way is still just to go to the communities page, and click subscribe on anything that might potentially interest you.

We will have community-created post tags in 1.0, but its not possible to filter by these yet.

Specific content filtering can get incredibly convoluted though, and I’d like to keep it as simple as possible.

Use the lemmy github, and have the developer reach out directly, not by proxy. We can help them there.

Vote manipulation from certain instances is one of the biggest problems on lemmy currently. Its why we’ve allowed admins only to view votes.

Depends on the country. There are many US specific communities like https://lemmy.ml/c/usa

US Liberals are still doing it to this day. One of their heroes, Obama, dropped an average of 80 bombs per day on the ME and North Africa.

After winning the Nobel peace prize, he dropped an average of 30k bombs / year (80 per day) during his presidency, mostly on Muslim countries, 2, 3. In 2016 alone, dropped 26,171 bombs in the Middle East and North Africa, up 3000 from the previous year. The countries bombed include Syria, Iraq, Yemen, Afghanistan, Pakistan, Libya, and Somalia.

There’s a good chance the US actually did kill Chavez with a slow-acting poison of some kind. You can find a lot of articles about his rapid deterioration.

Free Huey is a great one:

Maybe that time a dove landed on Fidel’s shoulder during a speech right after the victory of the Cuban revolution.

Pretty much every country lol. Why do you impute the values of like 10 imperialist capitalist countries on the other 190?

There’s a lot of marxist debate over this, but the general view is best shown by this phrase:

“When the Spanish came to the americas, they demanded the peoples to become christians. When the English came, they wiped them out.”

Even the Spanish Queen Isabella in the 1500s after Columbus’s voyages demanded that the indigenous peoples be considered subjects with full rights. The Spanish never tried to systematically wipe out the indigenous in the same way the english did.

And by the time of Bolivar, a big chunk of Latin Americans were, although christian, supportive of indigenous resistance, and slave rebellions like in haiti. At the same time presidents in the US were decrying the haitian revolution and carrying out the largest scale genocide of our time.
