And it’s European! 🇪🇺🇪🇺🇪🇺

It isn’t / wasn’t

There are/were a lot of systems where you need to be granted a privilege in order to do something.

And just as many where the laws aren’t defined so anything can be laid out as illegal

Jesus fucking Christ, you’re really a tankie.

In china, there is the largest discrepancy between rich and poor. In china, a huge part of the population still lives in poverty while rich billionaires vacate on yachts and the government eyes imperial expansion Billionaires and Party-Officials are practically untouchable, the government is actively putting minorities in concentration camps. When the people try to protest, tanks roll over them. So much for your “democracy”

btw, freedom to marry anyone (china recognizes homosexuality as a mental disorder), freedom to exercise your religion (china is putting muslims in concentration camps), freedom to protest (see tianamen square massacre)

The lemmy.ml guy would think freedom means the freedom to roll with tanks over peaceful Protestors demanding Freedom and Democracy.

See? Prejudice isn’t nice, right?

That’s absolutely not what it means

In the very closest definition, liberal means “if there isn’t a law against it, you’re allowed to do it”

liberal more broadly is just as simple: “if it doesn’t hurt me, you’re free to do it”

I mean, what do you think a “liberal democracy” is? The majority of Europe is made up of liberal democracies while also being social-democratic. France is a liberal democracy despite being heavily unionized and having huge welfare. How does that work?

It works because that’s not what liberal means.

Socially-Liberal, for example, is when you are liberal (freedom-loving / diversity-loving) in social aspects. You support gay marriages, you support freedom of religion, you support cultural diversity. Other Examples include religiously-liberal, culturally-liberal, or even politically liberal (you support the right to different political opinions than yours)

What comes closest to what you think it is is economically-liberal. Which essentially says that “as long as it doesn’t hurt me, you’re free to do what you want economically”. But even that isn’t what you mean. Is Pollution and accelerating Climate change harming me and therefore not protected under liberalism? yes, says the absolute majority of liberals.

Is lobbying harming me by making my Voice less weighted? Yes, say a lot of us.

So not even economically-liberal is a good term to describe what you mean.

I don’t know, what a good term for it is. But it isn’t Liberal. So please, for the love of god, stop misusing it. Words have meaning. Invent a new one if you have to, they all began that way anyways.

Don’t know why you’re being downvoted.

Liberal literally means free. As in “If it doesn’t harm me, you’re allowed to do it”. So yes, openminded, permissive, tolerant.

Don’t know why a lot of the US-Americans had to twist the meaning of it.

yeah, immigrants really are destroying our planet.

Under the Climate Protection Act, Germany has committed itself to reducing greenhouse gas emissions by 65% by 2030 compared to 1990.

Projected data for greenhouse gas emissions show a drop of almost 64% by 2030 compared to 1990 — bringing the goal into reach. In a 2021 report, a reduction of just 49% had been expected.

I am really positively impressed!

It’s an Issue known on Github.

TLDR: The Website is supposed to give you a Value as a Integer. However, some Auth-Backends used by some Websites give the Value as a String instead. Bitwarden doesn’t parse the String for security Reasons and so the signup fails. We can’t really do anything except wait for websites to fix the Bug.

It did

Yours truly

I want one. Where can I buy one?

Yeah, of course google didn’t physically block anything, But you had multiple visions diverging and that harmed progress.

, and which would that be?

The enthusiasts faction running the servers.

It sounds paradoxical, but that’s exactly what i meant.

There were multiple authorities with different ideas which blocked developement. As soon as there was only one Authority left, developement sped up rapidly.

Russia is a lot more racist than the US lol

yeah, I’d pick the US over Russia (at any point in history) every single time.

I’m sorry to break it to you, but look at how much E-Mail, the biggest open Standard has developed.

Without a central Authority behind it, Developement doesn’t work.

Heck, even with a central authority it’s difficult. Just look how many Businesses still use Java 8.

Why is it, do you think, that everyone is Airdropping Aid into Gaza instead of using Trucks? These Airdrops are obviously communicated to and coordinated with Israel, so it can’t be to circumvent an Israeli Blockade.

The Reason everyone Airdrops their Aid is because Gaza is a Enemy Territory controlled by brutal Terrorists that would gladly kill the Aid-workers without any second thought.

Heck, have you seen the Photos of the Philippine guest-workers being taken hostage in Hamas-Bunkers? Did you see what was there? Bags and Bags of Japanese Wheat, stolen from the starving civilian Population to further their terrorist goals.

Or did you see the Video of Hamas digging up Water Pipes to make Rockets to fire at Israeli Civilians? Gosh, i really wonder why the majority of Gazans don’t have access to running Water despite the EU investing Billions into exactly that.

I’ll say it again: The Problem with sending Aid to Gaza isn’t Israel, it’s Hamas. It sees Gaza not as a Territory it must develop but instead as a Asset it can use up in order to fight Israel. They have no concerns for Gaza and its Population as long as they can hurt Israel.

Acting as if Hamas cares about Palestinians at all

It’s really not Israel that’s the Problem.

The Problem is that Gaza is controlled by a Terrorist Organisation and nobody wants to risk their Trucks / Ships to bring Aid into it, Especially since Hamas uses Food as a means to control its Population and therefore will not be happy about a third party distributing it freely.
