  • I’d say history. But it’s not even that. The US is at war with venezuela and always has been. Just kidding it’s eurasia. Nah haha but they are waging economic warfare. Well Trump did and Biden continues to.

    So should you believe the US claims? You’ll have to as your ideological master programmer of course. It’s not like you could just use historical facts and make some clear logical deductions!

    So yeah it’s ONLY a matter of ideology and opinion /s

    Oh btw Trump also really won the last US election and Biden isn’t even President. It’s not like these things are different in any way - one side is right, the other is wrong, and it’s only a matter of opinion.














  • Using IP laws to legislate this could also lead to disastrous consequences, like the monopolization of effective AI. If only those with billions in capital can make use of these tools, while free or open source models become illegal to distribute, it could mean a permanent power grab. If the capitalists end up controlling the “means of generation” and we the common folk can’t use it.

    It would be nice to have a “patreon” like monthy support and then an open accounting - so we know the money is split to development, instance server hosting costs and maybe admin wages. Or maybe can vote on it. I think fediverse is only the first step, we’re going to need some kind of global non profit funded by users to create federated software and content for users.


  • There are articles about what went wrong, but mostly they weren’t even trying to “nation build”. They often supported the worst kind of monsters. Like people cheered for the taliban because they removed them, the worst kind of warlords, the USA put them back in charge.

    What does work is prosperity, education and peace. Only then can you have democracy. Israel had 70 years to help build up Palestine, they could have had like 3 TV channels with propaganda to build bridges and give them a life worth living. The terrorism would have made that very hard, but if you occupy a country that would have been the way to go.
