Both. It’s kind of like asking if monarchy is the problem or if the problem is just evil kings. Theoretically even a dictatorship can work out well for the people given a benevolent dictator. The issue is with the vulnerabilities inherent in the system. For capitalism, it’s that those with more money have more influence and thus it creates a feedback loop where those with more money have more power to get themselves more money and therefore more power and so on.
I sometimes run into this when I extract an archive file on Windows and there are files named with different cases but are otherwise the same. I prefer case-sensitivity because I like precision and fewer assumptions being made about a system and how it’s used.
Who is the OAuth provider in this case? The instance you sign up on? That’s already the case.
That intermediate step is amongus sitting down.
Casholic with a lisp.
I thought that was an apartment building at first.
Wouldn’t they want to roll this out to all users as soon as possible to save on bandwidth? They have an “are you still watching?” prompt to save on bandwidth as well, right?
I liked the other angle more.
Worse, based on trends over the last couple decades.
You mean like how the comment you responded to is one of the most upvoted comments on this post?
You’ve got the smug know-it-all liberal schtick down perfect.
That’s true to some extent. I don’t agree with hard censorship like that, but there is also the risk of getting astroturfed and brigaded like reddit, which had a clear example as far back as 2013 where Eglin Air Force Base, FL showed up as “most addicted city”. The goal of censorship is to give your own opinions more space, so I’m not exactly upset if other instances are moderated in a different way when there are plenty of other instances moderated in a different way. The fediverse offers plenty of space.
Clearly the American point of view is neutral, the default, and the truth, so it doesn’t count as propaganda.
The onslaught of fediverse karen posts about lemmy.ml continues.
You mean like all the biden supporters on here defending his support for genocide?
Zero.
It’s hard to keep a protest going when you don’t have focused power behind it. The general messaging of economic inequality carried on and we’ve been talking about the 1% vs the 99% since, but the key advantage that the billionaires have is that even though there are far fewer of them, the system is structured such that they can use their money to direct the focus. The raw numbers of people mean nothing without that focus.
It takes an extraordinary event to bring out the sheer number of people, so I’m afraid something like it won’t start back up unless something catastrophic happens (e.g. popping of the everything bubble leading to a new great depression). Sustaining it will be a matter of organization which is much more difficult to figure out, especially when individual resources are scarce.
If you’re referring to bitcoin for that alternative money supply then I regret to inform you that it’s manipulated to hell and back, from "stable"coin printing to now ETFs.
Rapid Abandonment Is Imperative
I dunno, apparently someone can support a genocide and still be considered a good guy these days.
