That's great, keep learning.
Ah I wasn't aware of that. They were one of the few large channels at the time, so when they shut it down I quit using Matrix altogether.
I lost interest when they moved from matrix to discord
I assume they'd go to Russia for defense $ since that's where most are from.
Please educate yourself.
Or just stop giving them billions. That's the threat Bush and Reagan used.
But I like your idea more.
Telling Biden to stop the genocide.
No they wouldn't. The local elections here are non-partisan.
Greens / libertarians are just slightly different flavors of liberalism. There's still only one ideology allowed.
The other guy was saying I put in too much effort. Can't please you libs
America dropped "you are lynching negros" in favor of "whataboutism" because it made people think for a moment, hey, why are we lynching negros after all? Aren't we kinda hypocrites?
Free Palestine
Your rebuttal was nothing more than a word choice. And you're still using it.
The reason you're doing this is because if you use the actual fallacy's name, rather than the US empire's "and you are lynching negros", you're more likely to see your error.
-
it's a euphemism for "And You Are Lynching Negroes" - that's literally what people used to say instead of whataboutism.
-
It's not the name of any logical fallacy. You're thinking of Tu Quoque.

So you have even less reason to use the racist-in-origin and logically fallacious term.
"Whataboutism" is what Americans say to profess blind faith in their exceptionalism.

> The meme enrages Israel supporters because Israel apologia depends on mountains of verbiage to spin obvious atrocities as reasonable and appropriate. At some point the kids noticed this was happening, and started dismissing all the narratives.
> ...Without mountains of narrative, all you’ve got is a nonstop deluge of raw video footage depicting the blatant genocidal criminality of Israel. No narrative overlay is required atop a video of a baby beheaded by Israeli military explosives. It stands on its own. You’d only need narrative to explain why the footage of the headless baby doesn’t say bad things about the side that’s dropping the bombs.
> ..Manipulators understand that they can use narrative to promote material agendas if they can get people to believe those narratives, and it enrages them when people handwave away the narrative and stick solely with the raw data of material reality. If you’ve based your life around trading empty narrative fluff for real material resources and gains, having your narratives dismissed can feel like holding a huge pile of currency that suddenly got devalued to zero. Of course the manipulators would be upset about this.

Federated and local forums on the same homepage?
I'd like to restart an old community with fedibb. The throwback phpbb UI is irresistible!😳 In addition to our own local forums, is it possible to include a couple forums from https://fedibb.ml/ such as "Music" and "Video Games" on the homepage and have my users interact?
