Why am I cross-posting .ml content?
I cross-post from .ml to the nearest relevant non-.ml comm to reduce the influence of .ml comms and indirectly, the instance as a whole, to make it an easier decision for other instance admins to defederate because one key reason I identified that admins don’t want to defederate is because .ml still has some very large comms and some niche comms.
Some highlights from the link:
"Don’t worry guys, the Uyghur Genocide was REALLY just birth control! ~dessalines, .ml admin, dev https://lemmy.world/post/30580167
“See! nobody died IN Tiananmen Square, just AROUND it, so it doesn’t count!!” ~ Davel, .ml admin https://lemmy.world/post/30673342
.ml admin, Nutomics continued transphobia https://lemmy.world/post/29222558 The original transphobic Comment from Nutomic: https://lemmy.world/post/18236068
“NK is actually good and anything counter to that is Western propaganda!” ~dessalines, .ml admin, dev https://lemmy.world/post/31595035
General negative sentiment to other instances who haven’t “seen the way” yet ~davel, .ml admin https://lemmy.world/post/27426510
“If you don’t support Russia then you just don’t understand geopolitics” ~dessalines, .ml admin, dev https://lemmy.world/post/27352415
And so so much documentation on clear heavy handed censorship and bias also on the link. So much I can’t even put them all here because this comment would be really long.
I believe the behavior of its admins (the main admins are Lemmy devs) does harm to the overall growth of the Lemmy-verse and maybe even the Thrediverse (since Lemmy kinda kicked off the Thrediverse) because of its association with the devs of Lemmy and their insistence to use .ml as their personal political platform to spread harmful propaganda
On the outside, bringing up Lemmy frequently leads to comments like “Lemmy? Isn’t that the place with a bunch of tankies?” Or “Tried Lemmy, but found it full of pro Russia crap so I left”. The best way forward from that I see is to either widely defederate from .ml like the rest of the Triad, or pressure them to put a fair and unbiased as possible admin team.

Technology@lemmy.zip•Owners, not renters: Mozilla's open source AI strategyEnglish
36·11 hours agoThis is a conflation of “AI” and shitty AI companies. The AI technology, which can be fully open source, is what’s here to stay and it is a useful tool. Not the end all be all by any means, but, just like a drill or hammer it has its uses. And just like a drill or hammer, you can use it for improper use but get a less optimal result
Boycotting the tech itself, to include full open source and selfhosted AI is what’s not going to work, but the shitty companies probably will come and go.
The real solution is to roll up the sleeves and built an a version of this technology that’s open, transparent, and community driven.
No, the solution is to educate the general populace about the extreme harms of AI on our economy and our environment and our sovereignty and our education and to show them that we’re getting absolutely nothing in exchange except for lining the pockets of CEOs and twist the arm of the gov to get involved in some sort of regulation…
Both of these things can happen, AI can be harmful. Any tool can be harmful and for dangerous ones we do educate people, to varying degrees depending on the tool. And just like any tool, it has its restrictions AND promote open and transparent systems over the ones that do line CEO pockets

81·18 hours agoA little off topic, but I noticed you’re new and have been posting to the writing .ml comm in addition to the other comms.
So, a lot of us have been boycotting the .ml instance in one way or another covered in the Megathread here https://lemmy.world/post/29072279 so wanted to see if you’d join
If you’d like another writing comm to post to !writing@slrpnk.net is another one that could use good contributions to

Just as the prophecy foretells!
Try the good wikipedia source, not propaganda-wiki
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Tankie
Tankie is a pejorative label generally applied to authoritarian communists, especially those who support or defend acts of repression by such regimes, their allies, or deny the occurrence of the events thereof.
While I agree with the mindset, I share the same view, some of your details are kinda…barbaric
permanent private living space of at least 80sqft
That’s the size where prison cells float around. Iirc there was a study done that concluded that for an average person to remain mentally healthy they need at least 3-400 sq ft per person. Allowances must be made for families and partners
even if only some flavorless nutritional paste
Shit, that’s been widely considered to be cruel and unusual punishment for prisoners. There’s a balance between “not even good enough for prisoners” and “Lobsters every night”
if you have no ambition in life beyond sitting in that little room staring at the wall and eating soylent
Yeaaa there’s plenty of other ways to entice people to work or to aspire. You don’t need to make people eat flavorless paste, just luxury material goods alone would be enough. Like a decent smartphone, games, attractions (amusement parks, circuses etc), electronics etc. Plus most people want to work anyways just to have something to do
If we enacted your plan as-is, the suicide rate would skyrocket lol
This is more of a problem with the pizza places around you and I’m sorry they’re doing your area so dirty :(
But across 3 states for me, the pizza places you expect their quality to be is the quality I’ve generally gotten (like little Caesars is bottom tier and then local good places are top tier etc)
I hope your pizza joints get their head out of their asses so you can get good pizza delivered again lol
Yes, yes, yes. But do you know the song that goes beep boop boop beep??
Even the cheapest frozen pizzas are better than the majority of pizzas delivered to door and pizza companies are the best at delivering fresh food to your door.
Man you must have some absolute shit pizza places near you, I’ve had lots of frozen pizza and lots of pizza delivery. Frozen pizza can beat out the bottom tier chain pizza places (e.g. Little Caesars), but that’s about it

63·2 months agoIt would be a pretty hilarious plot twist if true lol, sadly I don’t have much faith in that. If you go to other Tankie places, it’s pretty in line with what gets posted there. Even dessalines has been known to post a meme in the same vain (they even posted a NK praise meme couple months back, iirc it was one of those “apology form” meme templates)
