Even if you are not doing anything particularly sketchy, you still want to make a habit of using multiple unrelated email addresses and always using alts with new unrelated names.

That’s some pretty bad opsec, using a single email address with the same nick.

These are big technical issues IMO, especially considering the large amount of tankies on Lemmy. It doesn’t help that many tankies have accounts on LW and other “normal” instances.

I told you would downplay russian atrocities and come up with some CIA word salad. You’ve never been to Ukraine, you don’t speak Ukrainian and you dare lecture me and tell me that russian invasion is not that bad?

Get fucked, you vile tankie! I hope the very atrocities you deny will catch up to you one day!

I am merely going by their actions, not by your words.

Of course, they support the killing. If they didn’t, they wouldn’t glorify Mao; a mass murders and an authoritarian scumbag.

Yes, they do wish Ukrainians death. They support the russian invasion and the russian occupation. The instance is rife with cheering for the russian army.

The NATO stuff is a ruse. Just a way to cover their support for genocidal imperialism. Ukraine was neutral … wait for it … before the russians invaded.

That thread is a cesspool of support russian genocidal imperialim.

Communists want the war to end and blame NATO for provoking and prolonging it.

This basically means we want russia to win to conduct more atrocities likes in Bucha. Just wild uncontrolled killing of civilians, rape and destruction. And Bucha is just one example that got in the news. There are mass graves in Izyum. Russians targeting civilians with drones in Kherson. Russians bombing a children’s cancer hospital with cruise missile.

But no, NATO made them do it! And not a word about russian atrocities.

I also doubt that Russia banned the Ukrainian language or sent people to torture camps for speaking it. Could you provide a source for this?

You do know how to use web search, right? You’re just going to say some non-sequitur about NATO and bla bla bla or that it’s all made up.

I answered a few messages above. I doubt that the devs wish harm to Ukraine or people in general. And even if they did, you would be no better than them 🤷

That’s not what I asked though.

We both agree that lemmygrad actively support the russian invasion of Ukraine. They cheer on the invasion and call for russian military success? Is this not true?

I asked you why I shouldn’t hate them for it? Nothing to do with being no better them or whatever. I asked why I shouldn’t hate people who support the invasion of my country and wish me harm?

From the source Bloomberg article:

Like Google and Anthropic, OpenAI is now shifting attention from the size of these models to newer use cases, including a crop of AI tools called agents that can book flights or send emails on a user’s behalf. “We will have better and better models,” Altman wrote on Reddit. “But I think the thing that will feel like the next giant breakthrough will be agents.”

The fact that Sam “worldcoin” Altman is saying this publicly (like anyone would trust an LLM to book a flight or to send non-trivial emails) suggests the grift may be coming to an end.

But you are trying to make something bad look good. Mao is a bad person. He is a mass murder, an authoritarian. Good things can and should be achieved without mass murder.

Their opposition to NATO expansion is just another facet of their support for genocidal imperialism because they know that being in NATO makes it much less likely that russians will invade. The “US greater evil” is all BS. If they truely believed that they would move to russia or china. But they don’t, they LARP as communists while stuffing their mouths with Big Macs and playing US-developed video games (in which they try to role play their imperialist fantasies).

For example, looking at the upvotes on this comment from Lemmygrad’s world news, it’s clear that they feel sympathy for Ukraine. There are individuals, like this commenter, who suggest bombing Ukraine, but the comment is downvoted.

Really, this is best you could find? You’re really grasping at straws here. How is this a proxy war? Russian literally invaded my country. This is a russian genocidal invasion. If the Americans forced everyone in a hypothetically annexed Basra to eat tex-mex pork chops and banned Arabic and sent anyone caught speaking it to torture camps, you wouldn’t call it genocidal imperialism? Just war, right?

I asked you some clear and direct questions and you come up with BS? Do you even believe what you are writing or are you just essentially shitposting?

We both know they actively support and cheer on the russian invasion. In an explicit and genuine manner. They want russia to be successful in its invasion of Ukraine. They want Ukrainian speakers in the occupied territories to be sent to torture camps. It is not difficult to say the russians were wrong to invade and it is wrong to commit atrocities and torture people (instead of just blaming Ukraine for mobilization).

Why should I not hate them for this? Why shouldn’t I want them to meet the same fate as the “Donbas Cowboy”, Russell Bentley? Just imagine what was going through his mind in his last moments - must have a been a true moment of clarity. I want them to achieve that same that same level of clarity.

Can you explain this to me? You keep ignoring this point.

Here is a really deep and complex ethical discussion for you.

You create a free and private email service and you don’t register nigge.rs and nuke.africa as your domains.

Imagine that!

Very difficult and super complex ethical choice!

Then why are you white-washing Mao’s atrocities? Surely, if you think the death and absurd brutality (cultural revolution?) is not good thing, you would support movements and leaders who don’t engage in such conducts.

Come on now. Don’t play dumb.

They openly support and cheer for the Russian invasion? Why would I not hate them for this?

Show me an example of them condemning russian atrocities. Just one. I shouldn’t hate people who white-wash russian crimes and claim they never happened?

Show me an example of them recognizing Ukrainian self-determination? One shouldn’t hate people who want you to be a colony of the shithole that is russia?

Where is the strawman?

One would have to be a genocidal imperialist to state that a country should not have the right to aspire to join NATO (especially if you border russia).

Try speaking Ukrainian in the occupied territories or opening a Ukrainian Orthodox Church.

No, you just want to white wash russian crimes and the degenerates at Lemmygrad.

For example, when the US invaded Iraq, did they do the following:

• Annex Basra and make it a new state
• Ban Arabic in Basra and send anyone who is using it to a torture camp
• Steal local children to continental US and force them to recite American national polemics
• Ban Iraqi citizens from using any public services in the newly annexed Basra and force them to get US citizenship.

I think Andreessen is lying and the “techno optimist manifesto” is a ruse for PR.

a16z has been involved in various crypto pump and dumps. They are smart enough to know that something like “play to earn” is not sustainable and always devolves into a pyramid scheme. Doesn’t stop them from getting in early and dumping worthless tokens on the marks.

The manifesto honestly reads like it was written by a teenager. The style, the tone, the excessive quotes from economists. This is pretty typical stuff for American oligarch polemics, no?

The nation introduced a labor policy in 2018 that capped maximum work hours to 52 – 40 hours of regular time and 12 hours of overtime.

To be honest, I would be surprised if this rule was actually followed. Perhaps someone with more knowledge could comment.

I always found interesting how some american oligarchs have a fondness for inserting themselves in the pop culture zeitgeist.

I get that. Sounds stupid. I mean hitler.rocks? Or nuke.africa?

It is probably good that they are shutting down.

WTF is this?

This seems like a win-win scenario for everyone involved.

He is an admin of lemmygrad. A cesspool of degenerate LARPers that support genocidal imperialism.

Mao is a mass murderer and an authoritarian. If you support him, you are white washing his crimes. You do understand that good things can be achieved without mass killings and implementing an authoritarian, one party state? Difficult stuff, I know!

No, they support the killing of Ukrainians and extermination of Ukrainian identity. They support interment of ten of thousands of Ukrainian civilians in russian torture camps. They support the destruction of the Ukraine as a nation and Ukrainian cultural identity.

It is fair and just to want such vile individuals to get a taste of their own medicine.

The NATO expansion stuff is a ruse. NATO expansion is determined by national self-determination; especially when your neighbour is a country where a strong majority of the population are genocidal imperialist.

Bluesky is a corporate hedge to delay the social network business from becoming not a business, it is headed by variously naive or disengenous tech people who believe they are creating the future when they are mercenaries for the past.

That’s a great sounding description.

It’s too bad we can’t add it to their about about page.

I personally lean towards disingenuous though. Tech oligarchs and their lackeys are many things, but not naive.

They are likely trying to promote the URL in the post body as opposed to sharing this (highly generic) info on Lemmy.

Thanks for sharing. Going to read this before bed (yes, I am a nerd).
