My concern is more the possibility of defining disinformation in some politically conveniemt manner.
Its already happening. In fact, looking at it from a wider perspective than nowadays teenagers are often able to, the modern “fight against disinformation” is just fighting propaganda with one’s own propaganda. And if you read the Hittite and Egyptian descriptions of Battle of Khadesh, it isn’t really a new thing either.
Duh. I keep hearing about a war in Ethiopia since I was born, approaching 4 decades.
In the meantime, the war in Ukraine is just 5 hours from my home city.
So of course I will be interested in a war between a nation that tried (and succeeded in a way) to conquer my country previously, a conflict that is so close that I could easily drive to the warzone in less than a day, than in an eternal conflict in Ethiopia.
“not get You” Don’t forget the packet loss and non-ordered packets.
I wouldn’t say necessarily more, since fediverse lacks tools to find interesting content in the first place, and everything is still in the wild west area, but certainly, if you dislike a book, movie or a dish, it tells something about you. It would be however prudent to not make a boatload of assumptions about the consumer.
Well a lot of stuff posted on here seem tech related
I am subscribed to the tech-related magazines, but their content is only a speckle of what is posted on reddit, even after a bunch of tech people migrated. And the discussion is also less interesting, on Reddit there usually was a number of lengthy posts explaining the background and commenting on the news, not much here. At least in the magazines I subscribed to.
Most stuff on the main page is just circlejerk about how kbin/lemmy has is so much better (community, content, discussions) than Reddit. I don’t find that interesting at all.
So far it feels like the fediverse is full of immature children who are more interested in validating their own opinions rather than deep and lengthy discussions about topics.
Yet to find interesting content.
suppression of the opposition != genocide, same with racism.
If you don’t want to do your own research and information gathering that’s fine, but I suggest doing so in the future. Knowing exact terms and their meanings in a political conversation is incredibly important.
Not only you provide a definition, that doesn’t prove anything, but you are also smugly passively aggressive. This is not the way discussion should be led.
If you don’t want to discuss, do not get into conversations that do not relate you in any way.
Prove it.
Fascism is not focused on Genocide. Even for Nazism, Genocide is only a (welcomed) byproduct.
Hate tankies as much as you want, but at least they don’t deny that USSR was the real communism.
You just became a Disney princess.
It’s a bit more nuanced
That is not more nuanced those are plain facts. OP is plainly lying.
She is accused and jailed for voluntarily being a part of a smuggling operation, even when she was explicitly told not to do so by the Italian government.
Compared to completely normal rescue efforts when a boat or plane capsize, when workers are trapped in a mine, when someone is lost in the mountains, or when a bunch of nobodies are taken hostage by a criminal organisation, be it local or abroad.
Again, this is not nuance, those are commonly known facts that OP is lying about.
