  • Accusations that could be thrown at the center(, if you keep in mind that we’re downplaying our authoritarianism/manipulation/control for ourselves and allied countries, but are over-estimating or even inventing it for countries we dislike).
    For now there’s not a lot of internal dissent but it’s already too much for them, so their reaction would probably increase with it.
    And i.d.k. if you’re an american, but you only have two political parties and it already seems too much, i’d never have guessed that D.Trump could have won with such worldwide unified campaign against him, there’s a troubling lack of diversity on the net and in medias that isn’t reflected in the polls/votes. And this criticism of populism as if it was a bad thing, …

    Direct democracy then.


  • What they said is that the proletariat is in charge forever, not capitalists/bourgeois/‘the wealthiest’ anymore.

    You can trust our capitalist-owned medias on whether they succeeded or not.
    To only give one example that’s not known, you’ve never heard of their imperative mandates, only about their fake elections that seemed worthless(, see #25 here)
    Not only can our capitalists buy medias, but they can also directly give money to candidates they like, and we’ll sanction/invade the countries that don’t vote for the right person, our system isn’t a model, if only because it needs so many lies to be sustained.
    Capitalist-owned countries from the global South think that they should imitate our model to be wealthy, when it’s that model that perpetuates neo-colonialism.

    The problem is that the u.s.s.r., the People’s Republic of China, and other socialist states, were too attacked by foreign actors to establish a direct democracy, so it was only direct in some cooperatives, and Lenin stated that reactionaries were powerful enough to justify having a strong state.
    It’s not in the communist “d.n.a.” though, on the contrary since ‘the final state of socialism’/communism is a stateless society.
    The gulags only existed in a period of crisis when they endured wars after wars until WW2, but we abundantly talked about it when they were already closed. If repression and control of the population was as pronounced as we say they wouldn’t have been dislocated, just ask a chinese person about their social credit score or other lies if you ever meet one.
    Et cetera

    And islamists/muslims/theocrats are the best, no distinction between the spiritual and temporal, i won’t trust a faithless civilization or faithless people, even if most of them are great people.

    Also, i honestly don’t really mind if we(sterners) end up with “anarcho”-capitalism, feudalism, or whatever, diversity is good, as long as (people live there willingly and )we don’t prevent other countries from choosing another path, which can be done, we could at least try to conceive a system which would made wars(, and covert actions, sanctions, …,) completely impossible.

    Thanks for the reply though, ++


  • As long as you don’t censor us, which a decentralized Lemmy can’t do in comparison to Reddit.
    The government is way more worrying though.

    Hard to imagine that it was only a few years ago(, before E.Musk bought Twitter,) that we were denying the influence of governments on social media censorship, and said that “private companies aren’t censoring, because they’re not the government, if you don’t like this platform just change/leave”. It has changed and now we’ve quickly accepted that states should enforce (more )laws all over the/our internet. And many don’t see that our fact-checking is unilaterally biased, etc.

    Someone from programming.dev may have heard of the declaration of the independence of cyberspace , among others.
