That’s the way ActivityPub works. Similarly on Lemmy, if no one on instance #1 has joined a particular instance #2 community, then instance #1 won’t ”cache“ that community.

One workaround is to create accounts on other instances and use it to follow yourself.

Poor people with poor class consciousness are apt to fall for false consciousness.

The “forever” part is hyperbolic, but I hear that it’s otherwise quite good. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=29tITqtnJU4

There’s a new edition of Gabriel Wyner’s Fluent Forever, and it’s a perfect time to revisit. Will it make you fluent? Forever? It changed my approach to language learning ten years ago, and he’s updated his approach with even more language learning tips. So if you’re not sure how to learn a language, we’ll talk about exactly what you can learn from fluent forever to become a polyglot.If that’s your thing.

The mask comes off

While he denied and whitewashed the genocidal crimes of colonialism, Marco Rubio stressed that the basis of “Western civilization” is fundamentally predicated on capitalism.

The US secretary of state emphasized that anti-communism is a point of unity between Washington and Brussels.

It’s no mystery why they first came for the communists: capitalists recognize the greatest threat to their existence.

Her name is Fuxing Hao and she’s beautiful.

Most of them don’t even think it’s real, yet will happily promote the idea. See False Witnesses, an article in the ”Brainwashing” series.

The USSR was only isolated from the imperial core states, not from other socialist nor non-alligned states. The imperial core, in its hubris, often calls itself the “international community,” but they’ve always been a minority in terms of population, land, and natural resouces.

There are also inexpensive ESP32-based Nest Flock camera detectors out there. They work by detecting their Bluetooth & Wi-Fi traffic, specifically by scanning for manufacturers’ OUIs on MAC addresses.

You need to abandon the term “globalism” altogether. The left doesn’t use it, and on the right it’s a dog whistle. The word has no coherent meaning. It’s a floating signifier.

When the right speaks of “globalism,” it is a dog whistle for anti-communism & anti-semitism, a euphemism for the “global Judeo-Bolshevik conspiracy.”

When the left criticizes the World Economic Forum, it does it in the context of class war, not in the right’s racist, harebrained context.

IT’S MORGIN’ TIME

That guy is such a grifter. He can be easily replaced by a Markov chain of new age nonsense.

Global North liberals without prejudice or chauvinism are hard to come by.

Im getting a little tired of all the North Korea apologists recently.

Oh well.

North Korea absolutely sucks to live in right now.

It’s not, which is why we’re “apologizing.” It is imperial core propaganda that we’re tired of, and we don’t let it go unchallenged.

It’s pretty amazing how quickly the US speed-ran through decades of anti-communist & anti-China propaganda.

What is “questionable” about UpScrolled’s ethics is that it is pro-Palestine. So basically the same reason that TikTok came under attack: it wasn’t promoting Zionist voices and it wasn’t suppressing anti-Zionist voices.

My issue with them is that they’re corporate (and also that I have no interest in blipvert social media).

I still have a hard time wrapping my head around Bayes’ theorem 🤷
