I appreciate all the hard work being done in creating good decentralized FOSS alternatives to proprietary platforms, so thank you.
The cherry on top is that as far as I can tell you guys are socialists/communists so here's hoping liberals/libertarians/conservatives also inspired by FOSS and decentralized spaces actually start reading marx.
I've gone long years without using any social media associated to my identity, as many others do, and i'll eat my cooked shirt if I start thinking, "hey sure why not let me into this shitty internet".
I'll be fine without using the internet if it comes down to it, at that point it'd be a liability. Dinosaurs think they can control the internet which is a hilarious proposition in the first place.
It's a damned shame bookchin wrote a terrible article filled with wild distortions of history of israel/palestine. It goes without saying that people should just not go to bookchin to have an accurate or rigorous framing of middle east's history and society. Ok, he inspired autonomous democratic movements like rojava, but that's beside the point of it all and more linked to his social theories of democracy rather than any concrete understanding of history - as far as I know he never studied the history of the middle east in any serious depth.
His social ecology essays are filled with interesting stuff and did have some very good critiques of different environmentalist currents, he did have some strange critiques of Marx at times, but I still respect some of that work even if I may not agree with much of it. His views on zionism is another story though, not excusable. The silver lining is (as far as I know) it was just that one article.
Not sure who Maknho is so thanks for the name drop I'll check their work out, but as far as I know, Bookchin was a lefty anarchist. I always assumed his later 'libertarian phase' was just another label that he'd eventually disavow as well but that his critique of the state also went alongside his critique of the market.
Can you refer me to other libertarians who are particularly anti-market, in the American context?
The system is rigged for the ultra rich and politically and socially connected, meanwhile people are struggling to hold a steady and alright job that can barely pay their basic needs.
Fortunate for people, historical consciousness is rising and people are realizing more and more how corrupt the systems are across the nation-states.
Let's hope it's not too late to instigate social change that can address all this.
considering all the international resolutions and breaches of international law by Israel for almost all of its existence, the crippling sanctions are welcomed any time now.
keep being a good influence; get anyone and all that you can in the good fight against centralized corporate control.
another reason why not to use whatsapp? for all that is good, don't use meta or any corporate technofascist company. there are better options.
'reserves the right' but won't respond.
everyday i am thankful for not using windows.
They are totally doing it to themselves. there is just too much crap there.
lol is this guy seriously discounting that people, fully non-anonymous and out in the public view, can be assholes?
He's seriously going full force on the Midas Touch.

If i'm not mistaken, the artist is Stephanie McMillan. I recommend checking her work out.

In my opinion what defines libertarianism overall is being non-statist and a belief in markets dictating all of life.
Left libertarianism is just progressive on social issues.
I have nothing particular to suggest but I just want to say this sounds great and happy to see. Enjoy!
As you mentioned Linux Mint is very beginner friendly so I'd recommend that.
let me think about this one... mmmm, no
this made me very sad. How could you ruin a funny ha ha meme for me and make it all serious
looks around the state of the world and the conditions of our collective existence shit.

Alright? thanks.
