Yes. It was during the early Nazi period.
And almost zero countries accepted.
“…the world thrives on its faults and strives, by every possible means, to aggravate them, while at the same time masking them like a congenital deformity. The signs are everywhere, though I could not always read them.”

Yes. It was during the early Nazi period.

This sounds like the time Germany asked the world if they wanted to take some Jewish refugees.
Before, in the olden times, the internet was just a bunch of random websites and forums and IRC AND USEnet.
Now it’s, “Where SHOULD I GO to be seen others and be validated?!?!”
I sound old. And I am. But,
I just thought the fediverse was going to be free of corporate/advertising/tracking shit-show.
If it isn’t going to be free of corporate bullshit why be here instead of Instagram or Twitter or Facebook?
What is the difference? None.
I used to care. But now? I don’t care where people go on the internet. Why be invested in fediverse if the fediverse is just another FaceBook?
They will take everything and shit on it.
What’s the point in being here if the corporations are coming here?
If he doesn’t believe in giving low income families a meager 40$ a month “welfare” then he should reject the saving Grace that is given from Jesus.
The point of the Gospels of Jesus is that the we are saved ONLY because of the Grace of God, and NOT because of our good works. PERIOD.
Nothing we do gets us the Grace of God. We can’t DO anything to deserve it. It is just given.
Edit: add “Like welfare!” To the end. I forgot.
“but with its currently starting commercialization”
Wait. The fediverse is going commercial?
Or oil and corn and meat and dairy.
“mass request”
Pirate “services”?
This stuff just gets more terrifying by the day.
Are there democrats doing this sort of violent threats a lot? Do I miss those news stories because I am on Lemmy??

You’re opinion is not an obvious fact. My opinion is not an obvious fact.
And no, I do not believe that. But many people do. And it’s all, just opinions. Just the opinions of of bunch of hapless great apes with too much consciousness.
There are few obvious, objective facts that can be discerned by human beings. And the few that can be, are not known by all. As a matter of fact human beings know very little about reality. Including the smartest of us.
Almost all of us are deeply ignorant and just cannot know much about reality. Yes, I include myself. But I don’t fool myself with thinking that how human apes run their affairs is anything other than preferences.
So they are not afraid to do their job. The police need to have the freedom to do their job most efficiently and effectively.
Nothing is horrible, but thinking makes it so.
Humans still do most of all these “horrible” actions. We have not changed. Some of us just are more empathetic and compassionate. Like we have always been.
Do we decide? We have already decided. That is my point. I reaffirm nothing. I only say, the word “murder” doesn’t apply.
The case has been decided, that non-human animal suffering is just not important. Not to the vast majority.
Hell, we can’t even agree that human suffering matters.
Terrifying.
