Is this post trying to insinuate that car-roads are more worthwhile than railroads? Or canals for that matter? Because they aren’t. You backed the wrong boom. Sticking with rail would’ve been better in the long run.

The man was a professional torturer and professional terrorist. He said he took those jobs because they aligned with his passions for torture and terrorism. You can be pragmatic without becoming a cartoon that will advocate for literal satans. There are levels.


It’s not like Chinese capitalists don’t hold any power in China. Capitalists and non-capitalist bourgeois hold their wealth in USD. (And the working class also have a lot invested into their savings, though in RMB). So it’s unpopular to do anything to drastically affect their savings. But on top of that, China and Chinese businesses obviously trade currency with the outside as a matter of operation. What are the effects on that trade if the world’s wealthiest country suddenly completely recontextualised the value of it’s currency?
(I liked the meme by the way).


How many protestors did cops in Hong Kong kill? Correct me if I’m wrong, but I feel like your phrasing is intentionally designed to imply a number greater than zero.


(The) argument that (children can’t buy internet) (…) is also bullshit
You can’t just say it’s bullshit and not provide a counter argument. Are you insinuating that children will use their parent’s internet? Fine, but how does that change for VPNs? They can’t buy a VPN subscription either, so they would have to use their parent’s VPN accounts, and then the age verification has been bypassed anyway.


Which forward steps are you referring to in this context? Starting with a head start (compared to the USA’s Internet laws) doesn’t count as moving forward.


Making a joke or completely missing the point of the post?
Free speech (…) isn’t supposed to (…) guarantee the opportunity to (speak) on other people’s private platforms.
That defense works if PieFed is advertised as Remu’s private fiefdom. It’s a space for all the Remu fans to hang out and say things Remu wants to hear.
Do you feel that is how PieFed is advertised?
So ignoring the censorship aspect entirely: Admins are asked if they wish to block right wing domains, and then if they say yes, the software blocks (some right wing domains and) left wing investigative journalism sites like The Gray Zone. Russian news sites like RT, Sputnik and TASS, Harry Potter related sites, all of Telegram, vk.com (Russian-language social media site), Video hosts like Peertube and Rumble.
Is the whole reason you made this list so you could sneak in some personal vendettas? Also pretty suspicious that the BBC isn’t on there. Or CNN. Or WaPo. Or Ynet. Or Mako. Or Times of Israel. Or DW. Given the era we live in, and their complicity in genocide, surely that’d be a higher priority than almost any other website if you’re aiming to block harmful news sites with right wing editorial lines.
Steam used to upload your whole resolver cache to Valve (So they could sidestep things not showing up in history when you use private-browsing). And they’re mandated to share everything they have on you with the NSA. So if you’re coming at this from a “I’ll trust Steam but not Wukong” angle, then yes, you are unreasonable. If you’re coming at this from a “All these private Chinese companies have insane privacy policies and send me hundreds of cookies, I’m not trusting anyone they work with!” angle then that’s completely reasonable. Closed source software is never safe, and capitalism doesn’t reward treating your customers well.
Do you think OP is presenting this street, completely full with people, as an example of normal pedestrian traffic? This is the inauguration. Nobody lives in these flats. The people on the street are having a party, following a plan by the party organisers, and then at the end they will move in to their new flats.
Most likely the party organisers have made deliberate choices to discourage people attending from watching from behind the stage, on account of how stages work.


Is this even the privacy forum? A lot of people here implying OP should consent to the spying for better service. Cloudflare absolutely does gather as much as Google, and with much deeper access. If you can go without those websites, then block Cloudflare.
How can you say North Korea is good? Don’t you know they have to push their trains to work? You even get executed if you have the same haircut or a different haircut than WPK’s General Secretary. They’re so evil that they’ll execute people with a 76mm cannon and then sew the mist back together and medically resurrect the person and re-execute them and then they’re forced to go back to work afterwards.

(The USA is an) imperfect system (striving for equality)
(China, Russia, North Korea, are) formal(ly) (unequal) (…) corrupt system(s).
Could you explain to me why among these, only the USA one meets your par?

You can use AI to summarise them. Or talk about individual articles. Really any sort of justification for why anyone could read these and think the USA one is the best one, never mind in a league of it’s own, is extremely fascinating.

Do you have even one bit of anecdotal evidence that he has fixed or improved anything? Or maybe a plan where there would be a dip and then a projected growth and we’re in the dip-phase per his proposed timeline?


Pretty sure this is called using human shields. Random hotel guests are now unknowingly sleeping in military command centres.


In case it’s too small to see, the third country that voted against is Israel.
Excellent. Thank you. But using an online AI provider to me seems against the stated goals. I know online is the preferred option for most people, but you should provide them alongside connecting to a local server.
