How tf do you think those leaflets are delivered?

Centrism does not mean coming up with a middle-ground solution for all issues. It could be taking a left-leaning stance on one issue, and right-leaning on another.

I think we should just use Lemmy. Encourage people with upvotes, comment something interesting, join communities and stuff. The more shit there is on Lemmy, the more incentive for people to join it.

Bro, Europe can not help Ukraine force out literally 1984-style genocidal occupiers (Russia and North Korea), no way they would do anything to America.

I hope Ukrainians do consult with North Korean POW’s on whether such leaflets would work on their comrades. Would be a waste of resources to deliver leaflets that just do not work

Also there is Ecosia from Germany and Startpage from the Netherlands. Although I love DDG most

If we ban centralization then IRC, Signal, Xenforo, vBulletin

Signal is not social media, IRC is an open protocol, isn’t it? I do not know about the rest.

Even when you have federation, each unit in that “web” will usually have a centralized moderation team and administration.

I do not have a problem with that. The problem with centralized social media is that users are locked in to using some specific app because all their friends are there, which makes it harder to switch. This gives monopolies like Facebook an unfair advantage.

Can you suggest a comparable alternative?

I dunno, how Lemmy does this?

Do you mean that they at most should be non-profit? And if so, why?

Yes I mean that. For-profit social media profits from increasing user engagement, even if that means through getting people addicted, intentionally not dealing with misinformation (because misinformation is usually more outrageous and gets people more engaged), data collection and other unethical practices, all because shareholders need the line to go up.

I support blocking commercial, proprietary and centralized social media everywhere.

which one?

But we should try to build friendly relations in hopes of influencing them to treat their people better

It’s like dating an abusive person and hoping to fix them lol.

Could it be possible for Scotland to gain independence while maintaining good trade relations with England?

It’s economic growth has been higher than US and all of its colonies.

Yet inflation is high, interest rates are high, and rubles are cheaper than at any time since Feb 2022

They are not called tankies because of rolling tanks though

The term “tankie” was originally used by dissident Marxist–Leninists to describe members of the Communist Party of Great Britain (CPGB) who followed the party line of the Communist Party of the Soviet Union (CPSU). Specifically, it was used to distinguish party members who spoke out in defence of the Soviet use of tanks to suppress the Hungarian Revolution of 1956 and the 1968 Prague Spring, or who more broadly adhered to pro-Soviet positions.[6][7]
