A board elected by a soviet, which is run autonomously and picks representatives based on local, popular vote

has boy boy made a video on Xinjiang I can watch yet?

Lemmy is the most ML oriented community I’ve been in… Well, it literally has been created by ML

Thanks, I also can’t see it. Discuss.onlinr should really federate lemmygrad

Sorry? I guess?

betting 100 dollars (not going to you of course) that feddit will remain federated for .world, sh.itjust.works and my home instance, discuss.online

just in: it’s reactionary to fully support a group being targeted in a genocide

I find it more disgusting than .ml and even hexbear, Chinese Human rights violations lean towards cultural genocide, Israel is killing, starving, dislocating and destroying their culture, ethnicity, community and land, it is as bad as it can get, any defence of Israel is disgusting for me, and criticism of Palestine on that front is very ill timed in that manner, you can’t worry about ‘terrorism’ when the alternative is extermination

thank you

American culture is exposed to everyone due to the internet

I would define the American culture to be highly individualistic and xenophilic (to a point), cuisine generally being borrowed from Germany, France and Italy with most famously their Burgers

Christmas and Thanksgiving is very ingrained, and whilst you might claim Christmas is very universal (partly thanks to America) Halloween isn’t, and it’s mainly celebrated in USA and mostly USA only.

in America, community is more loose of a term than anywhere else, and independence is a must-have skill to have, this is why the trope of being kicked out as soon as possible from a household is so prevalent even though this doesn’t seem to happen as much, or at all in other nations unless in very dire circumstances

America is generally depicted with the stereotypes of either southern conservative god-fearing people who attend protestant mass, or Californian liberals who seemingly accept anything and everything, enjoying luxury and being very upset about trivial issues, though due to individualism I can not think for the life of me a common dressing pattern, maybe military uniforms or suits

Due to how xenophilic and domineering American culture is, the media have essentially allowed for American culture to be available basically anywhere, mostly portraying itself within companies, holidays, local media and politics

I don’t speak Chinese, I can’t use it properly, I would willingly use if it I knew

Instagram, maybe? I can avoid twitter, but Instagram is a different kind of pain for me. The closest alternative is fucking xiouhongshu (rednote) and that is literally Chinese

I would DM you, but all DMS are public and my public name is on my email.

I read about 300 pages (in Turkish) and it had a really useful spreadsheet of the value of the pound from early medieval to 1800’s and it allowed me to check what events lead to the currency falling or rising, and how a kingdom affects the general population.

The book is boring as shit, it’s really fucking boring. But what he says is just the foundations of how capitalism works, and nothing at all like what some other people might want to claim him to be

My instance also blocks both Lemmygrad and hexbear, even though Lemmygrad doesn’t really do trolling

sometimes they don’t even store logs so you can’t do shit even if you were focused on just fixing this shit

The greatest lie the west ever convinced itself is that trump is a Russian puppet, how many levels of American bureaucracy has to be compromised to even allow for this? Hahaha

I used to have issues with middle click scroll, but my own solution works fine and it works on Wayland and X11 too

Most claims people make of others and other communities are highly personal and likely not true unless for specific circumstances

1. The concept of a family
2. Freedom to pick your own job (Government assigned positions)
3. Ability for me to be anything above lower-class
4. Nationalism and pride in a Culture
5. Accelerated Global Warming
6. My intelligence becoming below average
7. Every human lifespan is halved
8. Research of Space and Regression of Rocket Technology (forever sub-sound)
