Fuck Bibi and fuck zionism, but I find speaking about "genetic or genealogical" claim to a land a bit... iffy.

That's the same logic that ethno-nationalists apply.

don't like this

in reply to Prunebutt

I am glad to see this comment. If we go by that, all countries in the world should belong to Africa because that's where humanity originated (unless that's found to be wrong since I heard it last...).
in reply to Prunebutt

No it's not.

You don't have to wonder in Palestine who the land belongs to. The owners are still alive.

That's a cultural, not a genetic argument.

The problem is the settler colonialist part, not the genetic part. Let's say that some swedish woman moved to palestine to marry her palestinian fiance and they start a family there, integrating with the palestinian community. Would her grandchildren need to leave Palestine, because she's not "pure"?

If the ashkenazi migrants would have learned arabic and peacefully coexisted with the palestinians without starting an ethno-nationalist project, they wouldn't be settler-colonialists.

in reply to Prunebutt

Yes but then there wouldn't be millions of them.

This is like wondering why there are so many white people in South Africa during Apartheid

in reply to geneva_convenience

Again: you fail to point out what genetics has to do with this. Don't use fascist talking points. Period.

in reply to Prunebutt

The crux of the Israeli argument is that they have a high genetic connection to the land which gives them a 'right to return'.

If they use a Fascist talking point for colonization it needs to be addressed and debunked. Period.

Yes that's a good if and you're right that the FACT that Israelis did not come from Palestine ( palestineremembered.com/Acre/M… ) is not the main horrible evil issue of Israel and Palestine today; it is as you said the ethnic cleansing of palestinains and Israel becoming a genocidal ethnostate and a Jewish-supremacy aparthied.

If you click on the link above, you will read in 1947 there was 2% jewish population who were granted 7% of Palestine, then after Nakba of 1948, the zionists massacred and displaced 80% of Palestinains out and took over 70% of their country too.

So the "if" we are dealing with in reality is that if they claimed their ancestors are semitic and have the right to return to their land all while their country heavily bans DNA testings, and bans actual Palestinains whom all their ancestors were born there from coming back until this day, then give a jewish guy from Poland or anywhere in the world the right to come to Palestine and claim dual citizenship and land from a Palestinian family who lived there for hundrends of years before their ethnostate was even created.

So to counter this zionist narrative, we are willing to test it and expose it, too. No where here did we make it facist saying "you did not come from here, get out." That is not our argument. Our argument exposes another zionist bs justification for their genocidal ethnic cleansing which was made up through unverifible untestable bs religious beliefs "God promised us all this land 3000 years ago which had no people, and it is for people without land ." when history and DNA testings alone expose it to be the BS Zionist narrative that it is made up to hide its actual colonist land grabing project truth

I disagree. I think that's a core assumend premise of the video. Otherwise, the statement that Bibi's from Poland doesn't make any coherent sense as an argument.

I disagree with the complete "blood and soil" premise that zionism is based on. But I critisize bs logic, no matter which camp it stated.

I understand you, and even the two-state solution itself does not ask for Israelis to go back where they came from no. The hope is for them to live in peace side by side, and stop the genocidal jewish-supremacy.

I think that's a core assumend premise of the video. Otherwise, the statement that Bibi's from Poland doesn't make any coherent sense.


Bro, it does make coherent sense; read my previous comment. It is to expose the Zionist bs narrative that it's their ancestors land 3000 yrs ago promised by god. And here where I disagree with you that you refuse to scoop low to their bs logic to prove it wrong. I'm willing to do that.

I really wish you have a good day. I really think we agree on more than what we disgree.

Small correction, not relevant to the other commenter.

The two-state solution still implies an apartheid structure and in fact is exactly what has led to what we are witnessing today. A single state, where all people enjoy equal rights; where Palestinians are represented in the state, allowed to return to their homeland, and receive reparations; should be what we are looking towards as the most stable end to this violence. There will not be extended peace as long as there is land reserved to remain as a zionist ethnostate.

Funny, everyone perceives China to be some socialist giant. I just spent a week there and it's more capitalist and consumer centric than anything I've ever seen. Certainly more than Singapore, USA, UK. All the brands x all the shopping. It's not a tourist spot, it's a shopping experience.

No they don't.

Holy shit you can't be that childish.

Okay, let's go with "socialist" then because you're so childish that you're pretending like the form of socialism China is known to claim to be isn't communism.

If you have to pretend to be that stupid, then perhaps you're not in a good position, argument-wise.

China is a unitary communist state led by the CCP that self-designates as a socialist state.

All I've said is that in my personal experience visiting China this socialist state feels more capitalist than many other countries due to the insane amount of consumerism and mass consumption.

This is due to reform and opening up in 1978 and a burgeoning middle class with significant purchasing power.

I'm not belittling China with these facts, I'm merely observing what has happened.

in reply to mrmule

And who, besides the CCP, is arguing that China isn't just as capitalist as other large market economy countries despite calling itself socialist?

At Piefed office hours, rimu@piefed.social and I got to talking about what's next for Piefed and the Threadiverse WG.

One of those things is moving stuff between communities (or in bbs parlance: moving topics between categories/forums).

Rimu suggested we use the already-existing as:Move activity, sent by the community (a group actor), with origin and target set, and with object being the post id itself.

I suggested we update this to use the resolvable context collection as object instead, which Piefed has supported since v1.2.

That should be enough to get a proof-of-concept implementation going between Piefed and NodeBB... a question remained as to whether this should be Announce(Move(Object)) or simply Move(Object).

Argument for former was that it was similar verbiage to other 1b12 actions.

Argument for the latter was that this is merely 1b12 adjacent and needn't follow prior art.

We'll likely put together an FEP for this.

Also Stalin wanted to pretend he was as good friends with Lenin as Trotsky was, OP's painting is a massive manifestation of Stalin's historical revisionism. Quite ironic to make this text+image with such an obvious example of historical revisionism.

in reply to Mr_WorldlyWiseman

The USSR was never imperialist, that's really a poor analysis based on the economy of the USSR. It didn't run an extractionary economy based on export of capital, nor was it under the control of financial capital.

Secondly, Stalin was better friends with Lenin than Trotsky. This isn't historical revisionism, Trotsky retained his Menshevik roots throughout his life in his style of theory and practice, while Stalin was a Bolshevik from the beginning and worked with Lenin directly for a longer time. The idea that Lenin disliked Stalin mostly comes from a letter demanding Stalin's resignation over the treatment of Nadezhda Krupskaya, Lenin's wife, for which Stalin tried to resign but was rejected.

Third, the USSR wasn't a monarchy. Even if Lenin personally liked Trotksy more, Stalin was voted in. Are you suggesting that the Soviet Union should have been a monarchy? Moreover, Trotsky's plan of assaulting the peasantry and hoping Europe would have a revolution and save the USSR from the backlash would have been suicide. Trotsky's Permanent Revolution depended on the peasantry being incapable of long-term alliance, but we know from history that that was obviously false and socialism was solidifed in the USSR.

Stalin was no saint, not everything he did was good, but at the same time not everything he did was bad, either. The CPC maintains that he was "70% good, 30% bad," upholding him as legitimate but recognizing missteps. Most communist orgs hold a similar line. Overall, he was comparatively much better than contemporaries like Churchill, despite being remembered as far worse by liberal historians.

in reply to Admeen

No, this is absurd. During the first 3 decades of the USSR's existence, ie the core years with Stalin as head of state, life expectancy over doubled from the mid-30s to the low-70s, housing was free or up to ~4% of incomes, education and healthcare were free and high quality, there was sweeping democratization, and society went from what was known as a "feudal backwater" with living standards common to the 1500s to a developed country that even competed with the US Empire in the space race. Socialism was dramatically better than Tsarism and modern capitalism, and the vast majority that lived in it want it back.

The Nazis, on the other hand, instituted industrialized mass-murder, solidified capitalist rule, killed off communists, labor organizers, disabled people, queer people, and more, as well as the mass slaughtering of Jewish peoples, slavic peoples, and more. What you are doing is Holocaust trivialization. I recommend reading Blackshirts and Reds. You also may want to read some of the articles, essays, and books listed under "demystifying Stalin," all are free to read and easy to do so on mobile.

Pretty decent overview, especially for the actual moments of the October Revolution, but I don't see how that's relevant to the USSR's history and economic model following the revolution, the split of Trotsky from his temporary adherance to Marxism-Leninism back into petite-bourgeois menshevism, or Stalin's merits/demerits. The sources I provided as a whole go far more in-depth, and go far beyond 1917.

Not really sure what you're trying to say here, other than "actually existing socialism bad."

As a side-note, the Prolewiki version of Ten Days that Shook the World is also a nice option for those who prefer that format while reading on mobile!

good friends with Lenin as Trotsky was


Tell me you've never read Lenin without telling me

Trotsky arrived, and this scoundrel at once ganged up with the Right wing [...]

What a swine this Trotsky is: Left phrases, and a bloc with the Right.

This is an instance of high-flown phraseology with which Trotsky always justifies opportunism... The phrase-bandying Trotsky has completely lost his bearings on a simple issue.

Trotsky has never yet held a firm opinion on any important question of Marxism. He always contrives to worm his way into the cracks of any given difference of opinion, and desert one side for the other.

Trotsky behaves like a despicable careerist and factionalist of the Ryazanov-and-co type. Either equality on the editorial board, subordination to the central committee and no one’s transfer to Paris except Trotsky’s (the scoundrel, he wants to ‘fix up’ the whole rascally crew of ‘Pravda’ at our expense!) – or a break with this swindler and an exposure of him in the CO. He pays lip-service to the Party and behaves worse than any other of the factionalists.

Microsoft blocks Israel’s use of its technology in mass surveillance of Palestinians


Microsoft has terminated the Israeli military’s access to technology it used to operate a powerful surveillance system that collected millions of Palestinian civilian phone calls made each day in Gaza and the West Bank, the Guardian can reveal.

Microsoft told Israeli officials late last week that Unit 8200, the military’s elite spy agency, had violated the company’s terms of service by storing the vast trove of surveillance data in its Azure cloud platform, sources familiar with the situation said.

The decision to cut off Unit 8200’s ability to use some of its technology results directly from an investigation published by the Guardian last month. It revealed how Azure was being used to store and process the trove of Palestinian communications in a mass surveillance programme.

In a joint investigation with the Israeli-Palestinian publication +972 Magazine and the Hebrew-language outlet Local Call, the Guardian revealed how Microsoft and Unit 8200 had worked together on a plan to move large volumes of sensitive intelligence material into Azure.

The project began after a meeting in 2021 between Microsoft’s chief executive, Satya Nadella, and the unit’s then commander, Yossi Sariel.




How do you get used to small form factors?


I do really think the smaller keyboards are cool, and i like that they wouldn't run into my mouse as much. But all my life I've had a numpad. I tried a keyboard without a numpad and lasted about 5 minutes before raging. How did you guys get used to it? Maybe I just need to get better at "top row numbering".
in reply to bridgeenjoyer

I've spent years with a lovely huge IBM Model M.

Then I've moved to a TKL (no numpad) keyboard: no pain at all, except (sometimes) when in need for Windows Alt-numpad sequences for special characters.

Then I've moved to a 68 keys split keyboard! And I love it, since I (almost perfectly) customised it for my needs.

And I'm now thinking to go to a 42-keys split keyboard... (see Piantor Pro)

in reply to bridgeenjoyer

It took me something like a month (whole August 2023) to get used to it, and I often change the layout (last time was past week) to adapt it to my needs.
But it also took less than a month to see my (tiny, still) wrist pain disappear because of better hands positioning.
in reply to bridgeenjoyer

I got a good keyboard at a good price, so I just kinda sunk cost fallacy-ed myself into accepting it. I didn’t use the numpad too often though.

Hegseth abruptly summons hundreds of top military commanders to a meeting in Virginia next week


In May, Hegseth ordered that the military cut 20% of its four-star general officers, directed an additional 10% cut from all general and flag officers across the force, and told the National Guard to shed 20% of its top positions.

In February, Hegseth fired Adm. Lisa Franchetti, the Navy's top officer, and Gen. James Slife, the Air Force's second highest officer, without explanation. He also relieved the military's top lawyers.

Since then, Hegseth has fired other military leaders without saying why. Most recently it was a general who led a military intelligence agency whose initial assessment of U.S. damage to Iranian nuclear sites in American strikes angered President Donald Trump.

docs.joinmastodon.org/spec/act…

It wasn't readily know how this collection is updated and federated (not without code achaeology), but claire@social.sitedethib.com recently shared some additional info :smiley:

  • The actor itself will issue an Add activity targeting the collection with the status in object.
  • This activity is sent to all followers of the actor.
  • No activity is sent if the actor has no remote followers.
  • A Remove is sent when a pinned post is unpinned.

This is what the Add looks like:

{
    "@context": "https://www.w3.org/ns/activitystreams",
    "type": "Add",
    "actor": "https://example.org/users/testUser",

    "object": "https://example.org/users/testUser/statuses/115266412340579560"

The corresponding Remove is identical except for type, which is of course, Remove.

Best practises for URL linking in sidebar


Hi,

I moderate/curate a few communities on Piefed.world:

  • !strategy_games@piefed.world
  • !turnbasedstrategy@piefed.world
  • !space_games@piefed.world

I have a sidebar with links to other gaming focused communities.

Currently, the sidebar includes links using the following format:

Text Description - [!]community_name@instance

What would be the best way to make "Text Description" a direct link. I don't want to use the direct/absolute URL links since it would be instance specific. Is there a way to make the "[!]community_name@instance" the URL linked to the Text Description?

I am looking to make the sidebar less verbose. Best option is something that offers transparent compatibility across Lemmy/Piefed/Mbin.

Would I use something like

[Adventure Games](!adventuregames@retrolemmy.com)

I believe the format above doesn't work well (I could be wrong I asked about this more than a year ago).

As an example, you, as a piefed.social user, if you clicked on !anime@ani.social, then you are taken to that community, but on piefed.social. If a user on lemmy.world clicked that link, they would be taken to that community on lemmy.world.

Without that notation, if I just made a standard markdown-formatted link:

...then users of other instances would always just be taken to the ani.social instance instead of staying on their own.

Oh, thank you, makes total sense now. I should be using those instance-agnostic links with the ! in front of them instead then. (Hadn't even thought to check how it's behaving on other instances yet.)

And, I just broke the link and can't seem to get it to work again...

Was able to fix but I guess I'm not able to get the ! version to work and so yes, links are not instance-agnostic but direct folks back here to piefed. Just tried it from lemmy.world.

So am I correct in understanding that the notation [Adventure Games](!adventuregames@retrolemmy.com) wouldn't work? A markdown URL link that refers not to a URL, but to markdown notation for threadiverse non-absolute links.

I am looking to make link where the text is "Strategy Games" but the link is not a URL, but a non-absolute link that sends you to the community via your own instance.

I am OK with the current format (e.g. used in !strategy_games@piefed.world), but I prefer a cleaner non-absolute link that works in a transparent manner.

Correct. The markdown syntax of [text](url) doesn't work in a way that keeps people on their own instances. Also, when the part in the () is not a fully qualified url, you can get unpredictable behavior and it might behave differently for different fediverse software. Testing it now, it looks like piefed falls back on assuming it is a pointing to a post(?) but ends up just 404'ing.

It is currently not possible to customize the text of links intended to keep people on their own instances. However, I actually think that the notation you are presenting here makes a lot of sense. It might not be fully compliant with the commonmark markdown spec, but the fediverse breaks that in its own ways plenty of other places. I have done a lot of the work on the piefed markdown_to_html translation, so I might see if this could sneak into a future release. No idea if there would be buy-in from lemmy/mbin though.

Thank you for the clarification.

I do think it does make sense to support this style outlined in context of the Threadiverse. On top of that, a fallback absolute URL would also be great, albeit this is outside my pay grade. 😀
