That’s especially disturbing considering that it seems more like a political hit job on a left-wing activist. Dude killed somebody allegedly in self-defense, then he was gunned down - why was a fugitive task for necessary when the dude was just chilling at home?

He was executed my a shady task force, probably without ever firing his gun, and then the president boasted about revenge. https://archive.ph/OFvJi

Yes, exactly, it’s homophobia all around

“Cool motive, still homophobic”

I know it’s a funny play on “position” in the title, but “man being fucked on all fours” being an insult is a bit homophobic(/kinkphobic), so it might be best not to make that kind of joke

I don’t really see an argument for “extinguish” on that article. It looks like just “embrace, expand, unembrace.” I can think of a few reasons how meta could degrade the quality of the metaverse, but the example of xmpp doesn’t quite smell right - activitupub is mature (even if I disagree with lot of the core specs), and the fediverse is much more about “eventual consistency” instead of real-time chats where both side have to be online at the same time.

I don’t really see an argument where Google drew people away from xmpp - the author themself said that nobody cared about the few xmpp users, so it’s not like Google was drawing long-time xmpp users away.

I’d love to hear other opinions on that article.

“wow it looks like actual sushi!”

Quote from friends after my partner and I put together a big sushi dinner. Yours looks amazing and also like real sushi :)

They’ve had data export for a long time, I helped make exports in support of a lawsuit more than 3 years ago.

Companies (like the New York times) can pay 12ft.io to make them stop bypassing the paywall. archive.today doesn’t take that money

(12ft is still a viable backup if archive.today is broken for a site, though)

Most teachings of Christianity are leftist and teach love, while many/most vocal American Christians choose to most Christian teaching and instead use out-of-context quotes to bash vulnerable populations.

Telling somebody “you live a life of sin” or “hate the sin love the sinner” is abusive even if it’s couched in friendliness. (This is bigotry, even if they think they’re good people, even if they don’t “hurt” the people they’re calling sinners)

I don’t think many people would be opposed to a community that agrees with this version of Christianity. I would push to defederates from any instance that has a large population of “prosperity gospel” or far-right Christians (choosing a friendly instance is a great draw of the fediverse).

(I was raised in an inclusive church then parents switched to a bad church - I’m agnostic now)

Edit: reading through the comments, it’s pretty apparent that this user wants more of a free speech space and is baiting people to say no (e.g. “but what if the Bible teaches <hateful things>, it’s just a fact”). Christianity is so old and its history is so much more complex than just regurgitating the King James Version - I would be against a Christian community without any historical nuance.
