It’s funny how you assume that structured can only happen with violence. You’re right, an advanced anarchist society would be a real democracy (not a representative democracy like we have today). It would in fact be way more structured than societies today. If a small group of people can’t simply enforce rules on all the others, the bodies that make decisions for the group will have to do a lot more work to make sure they are including everyone in the conversation in order to avoid conflict. It would involve a lot more conversation, deliberation and balancing than our current societies.
I disagree. There can still be a communal security service that resolves conflicts and tries to keep public spaces safe. I read an awful lot about shooting in this thread. I guess that might be a United States of American bias on the web, but still, I don’t understand how y’all think going aboiyt shooting others would be the first in anyone’s minds if they would be free 😅
The vast majority of humans are actually nice, altruistic and not selfish if you treat them with respect. And hence anarchism would not resolve in everyone killing each other.
Is this how stats will be reported on the Fediverse?

Maybe could have framed this “non-US TV shows”. Now you’re inviting the majority if users to just tell you their favorite US series 🤷
Tbh seriously, I think reading “PHP & MySQL in de praktijk” (PHP & MySQL in practice) must have had the most impact on my life. It definitely kickstarted my interest in programming.
Other than technical books, I thought “Testament Of Youth”, about the 1st world was, was pretty profound.
I think it’s mostly the uther lack of consideration for the locals at the time. Europeans went there with the explicit aim to “conquer” and loot a continent that was inhabited by dozens if not hundreds of societies. They went there, killed, raped and enslaved hundreds of thousands of people. Can’t imagine to hear anyone defend that kind of behavior.
I doubt any of these examples have anything to do with reading comprehension problems…
It’s dangerous to confuse a national identity with an ethnic one. But I grant you, it’s nations who are at fault with claiming the terms and other ones by acknowledging them.
But aside from that (and I just wonder), is there such a thing as a Chinese ethnicity? I always imagined China was pretty diverse, ethnic-wise. With the northern mountain people, the coastal people the western people (I don’t know names or terms) being quite different from one another… Is that not true?
They are. There’s a FOSS version of Telegram on f-droid.
I read the title as “saving cats from being slaughtered and sold as […] meat”… When will police start heroically saving the millions of pigs or cows from being sold as whatever meat?
Exactly. The title read to me like “look at those good police saving the cars from being killed for meat”. How about the millions of pigs that get slaughtered to be sold as pork meat. We don’t care about them?
I’m trying to get your point. But a jew indicates a person of Jewish religion. In most dictionaries “Chinese” will mean “someone or something from China”. I don’t know what the word meant before the nation China arose or if there are ethnic meanings to it, but words mean what people understand them to mean, that’s language, so Chinese kinda means “from China” today. That’s why America now kinda means the country and democracy means republic or other form of majority-rule representative democracy 🤷 (the two lost words I miss the most)
Pigs are way way nicer animals than cars. Cats are evil and grumpy. A pig is cheerful and friendly
Hmm, I think many users just weren’t aware. No everyone follows the main subreddits, or checks r/all. Not all subs closed. I guess the majority of users saw some stuff pass by but probably didn’t read into it too much. You know, most people spent the majority of their awake time working to “make a living”.
How dare he carry cards 😱
