IT WAS ALL THOSE DAMN AVOCADOS, WHY DIDN’T WE JUST SIMPLY STOP EATING THOSE AVOCADOS

The obvious difference being my/others mastodon posts aren’t showing up on wordpress and being monetized. One way federation to masto doesn’t matter bc it isn’t data farming / putting ads on masto content.

Yeah I’ve seen almost no movement against Tumblr while everyone got very riled up about Meta federation ie fedipact, probably a blindspot bc users have positive associations with tumblr, but it’s still an ad/data company all the same.

They both definitely wish/wished there were no muslims in their respective countries so they have that one in common.

I get you like this article but posting it 5x is a bit much, you can just post it to lemmy.ml if you want everyone to see it almost everyone is federated with them.

Yeah like is the New York Times in the room with us right now? God forbid the US officials/media are hypocrites, anything but hypocrisy! Just an excuse to not engage with the article.

There is no such thing as the “North Atlantic” it is a nonsensical organization, there is no logical reason for the US and Canada to be in a millitary alliance based on the made up polity of the “North Atlantic”, not saying that European countries shouldn’t care about regional defense, but that has nothing to do with the US or Canada. Nato is just an excuse for the US to park it’s nukes and bases in Europe and extend it’s millitary power, no one needs nukes, and people especially don’t need foreign nukes in their country.

edit: also Trump would never pull out of NATO, the farthest he would ever go is threaten and then coerce European countries pay more of a share of the budget and say he made a “better deal”, but he’s quite obviously bluffing

I’m mostly hoping that the few accounts I follow that are basically only on twitter and facebook eventually open an account on bluesky or even better mastodon so I can follow them with RSS, but that will probably take a while so I see your point.

Aren’t they all gonna be defunct by the end of the month with Elon’s changes to guest accounts or did I not understand the earlier posts about that correctly.

I doubt anything will come of this, it’s just an interview, probably just some big talk from people in EU parliament, I guess Russia did the exact same thing when they sanctioned Sean Penn and Ben Stiller, but I would be surprised if the EU stoops to that level, it’s frankly petty to target private citizens doing media stuff regardless of what it is or how much you disagree with it.

That’s pretty unlikely unless he’s doing a big pivot in his branding, he quite literally has said the US should team up with Russia to fight/oppose China.

Carlson’s dissenting line on Ukraine policy has to be understood in light of his obsession with fighting China. As he outlined back in 2019, his dim view of Washington’s Russia strategy came from the fact that he viewed China, not Russia, as “our main enemy,” and that “the United States ought to be in a relationship with Russia aligned against China to the extent that we can.”

He reiterated this point three years later: because “China is the preeminent threat to the United States,” and because it’s impossible “to engage meaningfully simultaneously in Europe and in Asia,” the US focus on Ukraine only “detracts from our attention to China,” while at the same time pushing Moscow “into an alliance of convenience of necessity with the Chinese government.”

Let’s be honest they aren’t risking any response from the US by doing this.

Obviously a very progressive/inclusive decision, this person is as Japanese as living in Japan for 20 years can get you, the “controversy” is ridiculous and quite frankly racist, would be like if someone an ethincally Asian UK citizen won miss UK and then got accused of pushing an Eastern standard of beauty in an ethnically Anglo-Celtic-etc nation.

You have to be such a asshole to read

“I’ve had to face barriers that often prevent me from being accepted as Japanese, so I am filled with gratitude to be recognized at this competition as a Japanese person,” she said.

And then comment it’s kinda fucked up she won this contest (as literally the first naturilzed person to do so) they should have given it to someone ethnically Japanese etc etc.

Inb4 some center to right wing politician ends up calling their former colony Hamas within the next week.

I didn’t think this story could possibly get any worse, but someway somehow.

Yeah for sure, but, I imagine if 1/5~ people had a cow sleeping on the foot of their bed there would probably be a push to ban beef, it’s easy for a lot of people who are exposed to pets to make a distinction of pet vs livestock. It’s a whole other thing for most people to extend the empathy they have for pet animals to livestock animals.

I don’t live in Norway it’s not like I could do anything about it anyways, it was quicker to look this up than a legal analysis.

He’s alive and he got sentenced 21 years which was the maximum sentence, I’m not familiar with Norwegian law enough, but I assume they will somehow extend it when it expires in the 2030s, don’t see how someone like this could be trusted to not do something else comparable especially since he has basically shown no remorse for his actions.

from a quora search

He’s going to be in prison the full 21 years. After this, there will be a parole review, where they can decide to hold him for a further 5 years. After that 5 years, the same thing will happen again and again and again.
