And quibilling about how accurate a metaphor is at any given time is just as useful?
Let me try this.
It doesn’t matter if the metaphor doesn’t stay consistent or whatever.
Because anyone who would be swayed by a metaphor like that is already swayed. It’s time to get in the streets.
That’s not what a metaphor is?
It’s an analogy, not a script. Of course it’s not a perfect fit. Metaphors never do. And of course it changes and life itself changes.
Your getting mad about a metaphor when you should be getting mad about facsim itself. Getting mad at nothing is just distraction.
So what’s your point then. That the may be fascist but the Hitler comparisons are a line to far for you?
Okay,
They’re still fascist as fuck.
Canadian here, most of Europe. We’re looking like we’re expecting Trump lite this year. Not to mention Harper was, a lot.
Sure, I don’t think any disagrees that there’s side effects that aren’t good for anyone, never mind teens.
But there’s nothing that you’ve written that’s specific to Tik Tok. It’s not substantially worse than American alternatives. Facebook has known for years the negative effect, study after study has come out. What legislation was passed to protect that?
So why target Tik Tok specifically?
Again, non of those have been legally banned in the US.
I’m not saying those companies don’t exist? Just answering the question of who the top commenter was referring to, which in my opinion is Tik Tok because it’s the only one being legally banned.
Tik Tok is the only tencent company I know if that’s been labeled a national security risk.
Tik Tok is what they’re referring to
That hasn’t always been true. This meme is older than Microsoft being open source friendly.
A) I thought it was up to individuals not groups.
B) we can’t even get people to agree the earth is round. You really expect to be able to change individual habits?
So you honestly believe the largest polluters will just stop polluting if consumers change habits?
Because like I cited, the vast majority of pollution comes from corporations. Not people.
Because even if all individuals stopped polluting today magically, it still wouldn’t be enough.
Take that energy you’re using to hold individuals accountable and hold those actually polluting accountable.
EDIT
You seem to want to blame anyone but yourself so you can remain comfortable and do nothing at all to help.
You seem to be holding everyone but the organizations that are actually polluting.
I refuse to put the blame on individuals for climate change 100 companies are responsible for 71% of emissions
There are plenty of things for individual things people can do, but the responsibility rests on corporations for this mess. And it can’t be individuals to clean it up.
And before someone starts saying that corporations only driven by individual consumerism, what other choice do we have? They literally make things to break more.
It’s just greed at the end of the day.
So who stores the login information? This is fundamentally the question here.
If you store it centrally you only need to ask for username/password combo.
But then someone needs to store it at a central location for everyone to check against.
If it’s not centralized than the user needs to provide it
Email has a hidden trick up its sleeve and that’s the domain name. In order for an email to be valid, the domain name must contain email info on its DNS records. There’s where you can imply knowledge about where the email/message is to go.
But here in lemmy, my email is just Gmail. There’s no way to find the information on where authentication could be located. Which brings me back to the top of centralization vs decentralization.
And now I’ll leave the earth, for no raisin!
The reason it doesn’t disprove it is because the assumption “time travel works” is really just saying, if we ignore some basic rules of physics, what happens to what’s left? It’s a nonesense premise to debate what is basically nothing more than science fiction.
Could the rules we know about the universe be wrong? Absolutely! But discovering those new rules is what will answer that question. Till then, we might as well try and say Harry Potter is just quantum mechanics.
Anyone who can look at the news and not understand never will.
