  • One of them did a nazi salute in public, twice. The other staged a coup because he didn’t want to accept the election results and proclaimed himself king of America and said that with him people don’t need elections anymore.

    If you don’t know what a fascist is, frankly, that’s on you and you should go look it up on Wikipedia, because you don’t seem to understand. Because if you did, you wouldn’t make such stupid claims.

  • We’re to the left of the US but if you look around Europe, our parliaments and governments are full with right wing extremists. The so-called centrists are politically and rhetorically where today’s Nazis were 10-15 years ago (at least that’s how the Nazis presented themselves to the public while they still had to).

    Otherwise I do think your explanation makes sense.

  • Yeah you would. It depends on the exact implementation and luckily with so many countries involved there’s a lot less possibility to get consensus on privacy invasions, but from a technical perspective there’s nothing that stops the EU from later changing what they agreed upon now.

    So what this means is that you’ll have to trust the EU that

    1. they implement this how they say they will
    2. they won’t later change the system to use it for mass surveillance

    A proper replacement for cash is Monero. I know blockchain useless and crypto bad and all but that’s a real private digital currency where you’d have to be wanted by the CIA or Mossad to even face the threat of having your payments tracked.

  • South Africa was a nuclear power backed by the same countries that now back the genocide. It was hard to imagine back then that the apartheid would end, but it happened.

    Yeah as I said, I’m against violence so I advocate for the boycott solution and not for the Nazi Germany treatment even though some might feel like the Zionists would deserve that…

  • Apartheid South Africa and Nazi Germany and all the colonies of the empire didn’t dismantle themselves because people asked them to do so. This has to happen through boycott, divestment, sanctions because I don’t think more war would be the answer, and I am against violence in any form.

    Make Israel collapse by putting so much pressure on them that they just can’t anymore. Our governments won’t just do this, so we have to do it ourselves. It’s a slow process, but it’s a process and with every escalation by them it speeds up.

    Unfortunately it doesn’t help the Gazans who are being annihilated right now, but the future I outlined is the only future Palestinians deserve.

  • So your solution is annihilation, let me guess you’re a liberal Zionist or something like that?

    There’s only one solution, free Palestine, from the river to the sea. Palestine needs to be decolonized and Palestinians need to be given back what rightfully belongs to them.

    Israel as a state should have never been established and this apartheid genocide state just needs to stop existing. All the rabid Zionists who can’t accept that Palestinians are human beings with equal rights can make use of their dual citizenship and leave. Or move to Germany or Hungary or something who seem to love them anyway.

    There needs to be Nuremberg process to try all the war criminals and put them behind bars.

    As for those who are willing to coexist with Palestinians can stay, but if they live on stolen land or in stolen property they can’t stay there and have to return that to their owners and move somewhere worse.

    That’s (5) and what humanity has to strive for.

  • Meh I think the decentralization is a pretty nice use case actually. It’s great that no one can shut it down and no centralized entity can just decide that your money is gone now (for cryptocurrencies).

    Look at Monero. Since it's almost impossible to track governments are actually trying to ban it but they can’t shut it down because anyone can just spin up a node and there’s nothing any government can do about it except banning it from exchanges. I think that’s pretty neat, although the environmental cost for this technology together with LLMs are absolutely crazy

  • https://www.commondreams.org/news/israel-drones-gaza

    Unfortunately that’s already a reality in Gaza. They use AI powered quadcopters murdering civilians there. There have been reports that they would even play recordings of cries for help etc. to lure people out and then shoot them.

    Now imagine where this is headed. Genocide drones will be equipped with heat sensors and trained to enter flats through windows and they’ll be instructed to kill any human they can find. It’s only a matter of time at this point because what we are afraid of is already in use, we’re just not at the receiving end of it (yet).

  • No that was my personal take, and Germans can downvote me as much as they want but they’re a shitty neighbor and I don’t need them to show up as a "strong leader". It seems to me that even the progressives there are mostly ignorant as to how seriously bad the current trajectory is, and they expect us to trust them?

    IMO centralized power is always bad but especially bad in a country that has a terrible fascist history and that seems to be repeating its mistakes while being offended by anyone who warns them about it because they still believe they learned their lesson and are now the main moral instance on combatting fascism.

  • Kinda makes sense that honey pots show up here, idk there was another post the other day about some anonymous file sharing thing and it also seemed either a honeypot or just an amateur project which is okay in many cases but not when it’s about cryptography.

  • It’s just pathetic. We’ve been on the streets for the last 20 months and we’ve said as early as October 2023 that this is genocide. We’ve been cancelled, beaten up by the police, harassed, threatened, lost jobs, been called extremists, delusional, Nazis, antisemites, terrorist supporters by the likes of Piers Morgan and unfortunately by most liberal journalists and politicians as well.

    There’s no coming around and there’s nothing to applaud when people are taking a stance against genocide. It should have never been controversial and all of these people "waking up“ now are deeply complicit in this and they will be deeply complicit in the next thing where consent will be manufactured to commit other atrocities in the name of democracy and Western values.
