The most popular reviews in /r/BreadTube:
BadMouse has been a bit too charitable to authoritarian governments which happened to call themselves Communist. A lot of it isn't in his videos, but things like his social media feeds. Someone else linked the Three Arrows refutation video where he did some lies of omission like use a word font popularized by Nazis when speaking as the "pro-West Germany" side in arguments, basically using the Soviet propaganda that the Berlin Wall was an Anti-Fascist Shield meant to contain Neo-Nazi paramilitary remnants that supposedly controlled West Germany. Also near the end of his East Germany video he spoke positively of the Stasi, who were known for extensively invading the privacy of ordinary citizens in a way that'd make Edward Snowden retch.
​
On his Curious Cat he claimed that anti-Semitic actions by the Soviet government such as the Doctor's Plot were overblown. And another said that he was still undecided whether modern-day China was a communist country or not.
The Blender project refused to monetize their videos. Here's a blender.org post about it:
https://www.blender.org/media-exposure/youtube-blocks-blender-videos-worldwide/
At the same time, Youtube deleted all of MIT's opencourseware videos too. For the same reason.
https://www.dailydot.com/debug/youtube-mit-opencourseware-blender-foundation-blocked/
Youtube isn't pro-nazi. It just figured out how to make a lot of money by promoting nazi content. The Behind the Bastard podcast just did a very insightful episode about the topic. Listen here.
not really surprised there
btw as a heads up, when linking instagram posts you can replace www.instagram.com with bibliogram.art or bibliogram.snopyta.org to link just the post without corporate/facebook tracking, eg: https://bibliogram.art/p/CERiUUqJCYy/ or https://bibliogram.snopyta.org/p/CERiUUqJCYy/
It's better to link important things that way because sometimes instagram will put up a registration wall and won't let you view content without making an account.
> They're like the Linux of video sharing.
They really, really, really aren't. [GNU/]Linux has a philosophical foundation of Free Software; an ideology based on freedom and sharing.
DailyMotion and Vimeo are privately owned, and are not Free as in Freedom.
PeerTube is the Linux of video sharing.
Americans who say that america is shit need to provide sources to prove it beyond their personal experiences. Same with Russians, same with every country in the world. Except Venezuela, interestingly.
​
My family had to flee the former USSR in the 90s. I still refer to this book when talking about the economic genocide of Russia: https://www.amazon.com/Godfather-Kremlin-Decline-Gangster-Capitalism/dp/0156013304
​
Note how this book was written by a Russian, who could simply cite his personal experience, but instead lists hundreds of sources.
​
Evidence is kind of important.
That's not it AT ALL.
He defines communism specifically as:
"An open-ended agreement between two groups, or even two individuals, to provide for the other; within which, even access to one another’s possessions followed the principle of ‘from each according to their abilities, to each according to their needs’."
‘from each according to their abilities, to each according to their needs’, the old communist formula, basically means if you have a need and I have the ability to meet that need, I do it.
Keeping count or reciprocating is very frowned upon in these sort of situations.
This sort of communism is quite common (even under capitalism), in families, between friends and there's a little of it in every non-hostile relationship.
What Graeber calls communism is what anthropologists technically refer to as "demand-sharing".
I refer you to Thomas Widlok's work on "demand-sharing" if you're interested in understanding what they're talking about.
https://www.amazon.com/Anthropology-Economy-Sharing-Thomas-Widlok/dp/1138945552
Both the bread book and <em>Wage, Labor, and Capital</em> are available on the free audiobook site librivox :D
I remember the same thing was said by the users of r/leftwithsharpedge after they banned that one like 4 years ago for ACAB memes (don't listen to the brocialist / transphobe-sourced smears that keep getting echoed about that sub, it was completely lit).
It's interesting to me that there's data showing the marked discrimination against bisexuals and showing it can be worse for them in many ways (hiring and rent). Just bringing this up as this happens to be the first study I've seen related to this.
EDIT: link to graphs:
https://www.semanticscholar.org/paper/Intergroup-bias-toward-%E2%80%9CGroup-X%E2%80%9D%3A-Evidence-of-and-Macinnis-Hodson/03e6a3e5bbd89620716c110381b3818dc6f4fad5/figure/0
And here's the main site, if anyone's interested.
Ideally there could be something like BreadTube-instance, where hosting costs could be shared and so on.
However, PeerTube (and other federated social media platforms) are generally not very friendly to ads, so the creators would have to rely on crowdfunding for income.
Plausibly
Was published yesterday.
one of the best things about cody's showdy is the sourse list that is embedded in everyvideo. here is this episode's Source List - https://tinyurl.com/yy236zrw
They've obviously decided they don't want to give air to anti-capitalist viewpoints any more. This is a really obvious attempt to quietly shutter the biggest platform for leftwing organizing on the internet, banning it at the same time as that fash hive the_donald so they can play the "both sides" narrative.
I think it's time to set up accounts on https://raddle.me/ or whatever other leftist alternatives there are before the entirety of left-reddit is wiped out and we don't have a chance to re-group.
That one is particularly good. Largely based on Corey Robin's The Reactionary Mind.
https://www.amazon.com/Reactionary-Mind-Conservatism-Edmund-Burke/dp/0199959110
Lots of gems that crystalize just how conservatism is a reactionary political ideology, opposed to the expansion of freedom and rights.
>Conservatism, then, is not a commitment to limited government and liberty—or a wariness of change, a belief in evolutionary reform, or a politics of virtue. These may be the byproducts of conservatism, one or more of its historically specific and ever-changing modes of expression. But they are not its animating purpose. Neither is conservatism a makeshift fusion of capitalists, Christians, and warriors, for that fusion is impelled by a more elemental force—the opposition to the liberation of men and women from the fetters of their superiors, particularly in the private sphere. Such a view might seem miles away from the libertarian defense of the free market, with its celebration of the atomistic and autonomous individual. But it is not. When the libertarian looks out upon society, he does not see isolated individuals; he sees private, often hierarchical, groups, where a father governs his family and an owner his employees.
One such gem.

Means tv is the pet project of the pr group that worked to get AOC elected, they are now attempting to start a socialist streaming service. Being weary is fine, but Im pretty sure this is a legit project and not an astroturf.
I've been using Mullvad VPN, £5 a month, ad blocker built in, wireguard built in, port forwarding (for all you naughty torrenting folk), split tunnelling (so you can say these apps use vpn, these don't), they also take zero personal information. When you sign up you basically just generate an account number, and they keep no payment information unless you use a subscription which I would recommend not doing, just top up the account periodically.
I'm not getting any money for saying this btw, just a fan of the app.
Heads up this is an invite link by clicking to creating an account you are contributing to a cryptocurrency/blockchain product.
I don't know if this is against the rules of this sub. But I imagine people here would not appreciate both the lack of transparency on this and the carbon footprint on the use of blockchain. https://lbry.com/faq/invites
We actually made the billionaire cocktail (which is also featured here) for an episode of cocktails and capitalism I was on about the psychology of wealth and generosity, here’s a link: https://www.buzzsprout.com/1323175/8303910
Also I can verify the billionaire cocktail is delicious and will get you very drunk if you aren’t careful.
Hmm. Okay. Here's the direct YouTube link (age-restricted), and here's a link where you can try alternatives to bypass the age restriction.
If you're like me and you're more auditory in your learning, there are audiobook versions of bread book and <em>Wage, Labor, and Capital,</em> as well!
Here's a pretty good audio book series version of the Conquet of Bread that this sub is named after:
You want proof? Name one former co-worker (either actors, industry, or general employees) of his at any place he's worked at (e.g. FUni, Studiopolis, RT) that has openly defended him AT ALL throughout this entire situation. Zero. Everyone has either backed up the accusations or stayed quiet. You'd think if he was really an upstanding, squeaky-clean guy, at least ONE PERSON would have come to his defense.
Does that make him some sort of sexual monster or something? Not necessarily. But if you've been such a colossal ass to so many people that not a SINGLE person is willing to your aid, then maybe your firing was a long time coming.
FYI, proof of his being let-go at Studiopolis-based dubs is here, where he was clearly replaced for Season 3 of Bungo Stray Dogs: https://www.crunchyroll.com/anime-news/2019/05/14/bungo-stray-dogs-3rd-season-dub-is-coming-to-crunchyroll
Crunchyroll contracts Studiopolis for its dubs. Funimation has zero involvement in Crunchy's dubbing process, so you can't blame Funi for this one.
My inexpert understanding is that this woman rented in an apartment building and became famous for her apartment decor; then one day the hotels.com "Lisa Frank" hotel popped up in her building, ripping off many of her design choices, which made her (publically) angry.
And when she tried to pay her rent, the landlord refused payment and stated he wants her to move the fuck out. (Since that is illegal, I'm assuming she might be on a month-to-month lease agreement where a landlord is not required to give more than 30 days notice to the tenant when they want the renter to move.) She finds out that the landlord actually owns the Lisa Frank hotel apartment and is also the one profiting even more directly from ripping her off.
She now suddenly has to move, despite having zero plans or preparations to make that happen. Thus she now has a Go Fund Me to help her relocate and is sharing the details online.
That probably wasn't TL;DR. I don't know how to TL;DR.
i'm new to the term as well, so i'll just copypasta

In case anyone is unfamiliar (which is, statistically, probably a lot of this sub) with Debian, they are an organization focused on creating an operating system and curating software that is free and accessible to all. Not only is the software "free" as in "no cost," it also is free in that it allows anyone to read or modify its source code and share it with other people. It's kinda like all of the apps and components of your computer being able to have Skyrim-tier mod support, but even better. For more info, see the Debian Social Contract.
PeerTube is essentially a free/open source software ("FOSS") alternative to YouTube that is federated, meaning that no one group controls the service. In fact, it's more like a collection of separate services that work together. Anyone can create their own PeerTube-based website to host videos that can then "federate" with other PeerTube sites (also called "instances") to share videos and users with the larger network. My favorite PeerTube instance is definitely TILVids, though there are many others.
The next major planned feature of PeerTube is livestreaming, which might lead to us having a FOSS alternative to Twitch and other streaming sites.
There's more info in the /r/linux thread about this, too. Any self-respecting leftist should at least be aware of FOSS, even if for whatever reason they can't use it or support it directly.
what exactly do you mean by democratic?
“The Commissariat of Justice also heard and responded to workers' appeals. In August 1935 the Saratov city prosecutor reported that of 118 cases regarding pay recently handled by his office, 90, or 73.6 percent, had been resolved in favor of workers.”
“Workers participated by the hundreds of thousands in special inspectorates, commissions, and brigades which checked the work of managers and institutions. These agencies sometimes wielded significant power.”
“One emigre recalled that his stepmother, a factory worker, 'often scolded the boss,' and also complained about living conditions, but was never arrested. John Scott, an American employed for years in the late 1930's as a welder in Magnitogorsk, attended a meeting at a Moscow factory in 1940 where workers were able to 'criticize the plant director, make suggestions as to how to increase production, increase quality, and lower costs.”
I'm not a big fan of the whole "human nature" idea and here's why:
I think that our culture, our social relations, our ethics and values are all tied in very closely with the way that society is organised. I find the base/superstructure idea to be very compelling. It's worth a look. It is true that our culture will change under socialism but i think that humans are fully capable of adapting to a world less focussed on and driven by competition and profit-making.
I think the whole "human nature" debate is incredibly idealist and we will never get a real, empirical answer that is relevant to the real world.. therefore, i think it's barely worth considering, let alone using as a basis for agreeing/disagreeing with the validity of an ideology.
This is about women with high testosterone.
Martina Navratilova recently did a documentary on the BBC about transwomen competing with other women.
Watch until Friday 26th July.
For Framasoft's own instance?
I'd guess so the network stays well federated. In some earlier federated networks like joindiaspora, one pod seen as the "main" one ended up so big the software had to scale just for that one instance.
How Fascism Works: The Politics of Us and Them
​
One main point Stanley makes is about fascism being a method or process for gaining and maintaining power, rather than an ideology in itself. He suggests that fascism must in fact itself be devoid of concrete ideology beyond the acquisition of power.
ProtonVPN encrypted email. Their VPN is relatively new.
This never ending rhetoric have been brainwashed into these people by ""conservatives"". Take note, this is what fascism really is.
Hannah Arendt wrote and thought a lot about this. I honestly wonder what she would do in this situation.
OK, here's a challenge. Here is Umberto Eco's 14 characteristics of fascism.
Go ahead and tell me which you think apply to the communist regime and provide some evidence. I'll counter with evidence when you're wrong and agree where you're correct.
Doing fascism doesn't require all 14, but the more the better. I'll wait.
An excellent tldr that I post often follows. I believe we match a clear historical definiteion of fascism
Mussolini pretty much invented fascism, his wasn't just a "brand" of it. Most other fascist regimes specifically copied different aspects of it, from Hitler's to Pinochet's.
Umberto Eco wrote some of the most widely recognized essays about what is and is not fascism, and how it works.
A bunch of her fans responding to a Quora question isn't a very good source. And other sources give a different message...
Just tried to find the book he wrote on Amazon, looks like it has been pulled for some reason lol.
https://www.amazon.com/Skeptics-Guide-Hypnosis-Brad-Default-ebook/dp/B09Y7PXXBS
Kinda disappointed, would have loved to read what he considered to be mid work.
I seed absolutely absurd amounts of video files on a daily basis. I have a fully automated system in place to pull torrents from RSS feeds, pass them to a deluge docker container that can only access the internet through Mullvad, automatically remux them to mp4 with bash scripts, pull proper filenames from MovieDB or TVDB using Filebot+AMC,
I know what I am doing. The problem is that it is trivial to inject malware into an executable file and you will never know it. I know how to do it. Applications, including games, are binary executable files and you have no clue what that code does unless you are an infosec professional with decades of experience and decompiling software. Most of this stuff requires you to disable antivirus software so keygen software is not detected. Running it on a machine that is not virtualized is idiotic and a great way to get bricked by ransomware.
this is definitely not me excusing this company but I don't know if many creators even really bother to look into their sponsorships, do they? I figure at this point after shilling NordVPN and so on, everyone's come to an unspoken agreement that they do it for funding and not ever because they agree with or actually endorse the sponsor.
> people who are more interested in seeing those they dislike being punished than seeing themselves being helped.
sweet it has been updated since I went to school for anthropology.
Though i do have to ask if race has one hundred percent been disproven.....how do forensic teams determine someone's "race" based on things like a skeleton, if there are truly no biological differences, only social?
One of the books I had to read was about forensic anthropology at the Body Farm in Tennessee where they study things like rates of decay, damage of body disposal etc to help crime units determine what happened, who died, etc.
The teacher who wrote the book would pull a trick on the new forensic anthropologists every year basically lay a skeleton on the table and ask them to determine their race based on the skeleton.
The skeleton was of a "black" man however the skeletal structure was "white".
Everyone would guess wrong he would explain about not making assumptions wear everyone to secrecy and move on.
Except one year someone guessed right, he assumed that the student was informed of this and he called her into his office to find out who blabbed.
She said no one blabbed but she figured out the skeleton was black because of it's kneecaps.
She used to work in physical therapy for basketball teams and knew that a "black" person's kneecaps were concave on the backside while a white person's kneecaps were flat. This makes both knee surgery and physical therapy easier for someone who is "black" versus someone who is "white"
The teacher basically recommended that become her thesis paper.
For one thing, "social ownership" need not be egalitarian (countless examples abound in both East and West) and the rhetoric inherently promotes a (19th century) "factory foreman" view of the world. Time for some "out of the box thinking"!
https://www.amazon.com/After-Socialism-Reconstructing-Critical-Thought-ebook/dp/B001R05HDM
Well yes. But that doesn't fulfill the requirements for fascism. Every square is a shape, but not every shape is a square to a degree. I think using this term so broadly robs us of a understanding of the distinct characteristics of fascism.

Go watch the video of this poor girl explaining her side of the story and tell me with a straight face that Thought Slime's response was so outrageous that even after an apology, he should still be shamed.
You're proving Thought Slime's point perfectly by focusing so much more on him rather than what Xanderhal did.

This is a podcast and not really a video, but it was a really good listen. Here is a link to part two: https://www.iheart.com/podcast/1119-worst-year-ever-49377032/episode/part-two-how-the-furries-fought-55843374/
I find it interesting that almost no one mentions Tulsi's links to religious cultism. There was an episode about it on the podcast "Worst Year Ever" (by Robert Evans, Katy Stoll, and Cody Johnston from Some More News)
This podcast has a whole season dedicated to this topic.
Comeradical is pretty cool but there's only a handful of episodes, both hosts are really funny and one is Haley Rose from the Realtime Fandub Games series
But wadda bout meh gaemz?!!!!!
Seriously though. I've kept a Windows partition on my computer for years just to play games and it's fucking annoying to reboot just so I can play some five year old shooter online for twenty minutes. I've been playing mostly on Switch lately, so I'll probably just wipe the partition and abandon my (ridiculously huge) Steam library.
On a more serious note, If you do any kind of work from home, Linux is normally not compatible with whatever web app your company is using. I tried to get my mom to switch to Linux and she was able to log into her work app for a couple of weeks, and then it suddenly wouldn't load properly. I tried like hell to get that thing to work, but apparently their site didn't work with the Linux version of Chrome. And Just about everyone that I've talked to that does some or all of their work from home on a Linux box runs into this problem sooner or later.
<shrugs> It's probably safer to log into your job from Windows run in a Virtualbox anyway.
>and that was entirely inheritance based and can die in a fire. If they've improved the programming side then I'm interested again.
Well, it is still an object-oriented and inheritance-based engine using C++. However, it is also component-based, with most objects being Actors that have a collection of Components on them (though there are other more abstract options for certain elements of the engine depending on the depth of your programming knowledge).
>Is it really open source for free users? That would be a huge plus for me.
Yes, everything in UE4 is 100% free and open for development, and costs only get involved after you've sold an "off-the-shelf" consumer product (this doesn't even count against using it to create things for private clients, it remains free in those contexts). From the FAQ: "Unreal Engine End User License Agreement for Publishing: This license is free to use and incurs 5% royalties when you monetize your game or other interactive off-the-shelf product and your gross revenues from that product exceed $3,000 per quarter."
The open source code is huge, and we're gonna be seeing a LOT more UE4 games from studios of all sizes over the next decade.
I took a class on queerness in video games, and we used itch.io to find games a lot! Lots of games that center queerness if you look for it, obviously, including a lot of stuff by anna anthropy. Stuff runs the gamut between complex games to twine stuff to zines, so you should read the descriptions to know what you're getting yourself into, but there's a lot of cool experimental stuff that I've found without even really scrolling through it much.
This kind stuff is sorta what I do for a living. A good basic description of how search engine optimization works for YouTube can be found here (video and transcript). Basically, if you want to show up in eachothers recommended videos, use the same keywords. Might be a good way to infiltrate the rightwing recommended videos as well.
You should try finding easier books to read, or listening tonan audiobook version of your book as you read the text. If it's something you're determined to learn, taking notes is also a good idea.
(Librivox is a great resource for finding free audiobook versions of leftist essays and books.)
I'm an animator. This wouldn't work.
To begin with, the book is like a hundred and thirty pages long right? That's a lot of animation, and animation isn't cheap.
Second, animate it how? It doesn't have characters or a plot - the most faithful execution would be to animate a series of infographics. That wouldn't work because the book's length would make that at least four hours long, and who's gonna watch a four hour infographic?
You'd be far better off spreading the audiobook around and getting people to actually read the source material. We don't need to jingle everything like a set of keys and say "oooo look at the shiny theory! look, little baby! it's edutainment!" People are willing to read if you treat them like adults. Then you won't have to spend several hundred thousand dollars animating of a book they can just read for themselves.
There's a few sites that offer listings of FOSS or FOSS-like alternatives for popular apps.

not sure if they use some paywalled ssl issuer or if it's free. if it's not, maybe switch to like 1984hosting or njalla (two i trust) but of course there are cheapers ones if you just duckduck "anonymous webhost" or the like

> requires 3-4 comments to drag out of you
My point at the beginning was that ignorance of the issue and joining right-wingers without a message is just reactionary. I don't live in the EU and am not on the ground there to make effective praxis.
There is just so much theory that it becomes sort of what you focus. I recommend communism101, anarchism101, socialism101, reading the basics like Marx & Engels Communist Manifesto (like 20 pages total), The Conquest of Bread is a 5 hour audiobook that's free everywhere, etc. Honestly it is quite difficult to give the totality of 200 years of theory with at least 12 different branches of ideology a crisp summary. You kinda just gotta get steeped into it and consistantly self-reflect.
> I hadn't been able to find any information about the situations their writers live in.
They give it all away for free because copyright is capitalist. :P You'll find tons to read there, though as a communist that gets hated on by anarchists a lot I hope you read beyond that.
I dream of a master graph charting the collaborations between lefty Youtubers, something like AniDB's relationship graph for all of Gundam. It would have some downright weird connections. Off the top of my head, the one between Thom Avella and Chelsea Manning goes like: Thom played the sax on a piece of music by Eric Taxxon featured in HBomb's flat Earth video, Harris provided voiceovers in some of Natalie's videos, and Natalie interviewed Chelsea.
Not trying to slam you by posting same text that I did in the r/Anarchism thread but I meant to post here originally so here it is again...
Lunduke is an alarmist and very divisive figure in the linux community. He attacked Mozilla for donating money to Rise Up which is a FLOSS email service used by many people including antifa whom he called domestic terrorist. His arguments were weak which is possibly way he took down the video. I used to like him and got sucked into his shit by the clickbaity “why linux sucks” series.
Linux is great though. More lefties should ditch microsoft and apple for a truly free as in freedom OS. Try Ubuntu or Mint out. Or if you want an explicitly left wing OS check out antix.
r/linux thread
There are some fancier user interfaces for it, including most "download YT video" websites... and then there are alternative YouTube front-ends, such as Invidious and VidPolaris.
Here are two reasons to check out LBRY:
1 - You can copy everything over in a few clicks at https://lbry.com/youtube. You don't have to leave YouTube ever or until you are ready.
2 - As the CEO of LBRY I promise to personally be grilled by /r/breadtube on a regular basis (think the right-wing tube sites will do that?)
So why not join /u/queer_bird, David Pakman, and others on LBRY?
This isn't the first thread like this, and I'm always tempted to ask the OP what there job title is at Youtube's corporate offices. Unfortunately, there's a hint truth here.
Youtube takes up most of my time online. It's replaced Actual TV for me. It's only been a day of this walkout, and I'm already hurting. So I decided to check out PeerTube. Specifically, the OpenTube instance. If you want to know what Youtube would look like without left tube content or moderation of any kind, then look no fucking further. It's like an exclusively alt-right playground.
And can I just take a minute to talk about how inconvenient PeerTube is in comparison to Youtube. With Youtube, you go to YT and there are the videos. With PeerTube, you have to to navigate to the list of instances and choose an instance before you even see a preview for a single video. And you still won't have access to everything on PeerTube because not all instances are synced with one another. So your instance may be blocking videos that you might find interesting. The entire experience is a giant pain in the ass and leaves the door open to create even more insular echo chambers for people to get caught inside.
TL:DR: The walk out is leaving the keys to the kingdom in the hands of our enemies and the alternatives that we should be promoting are not only already infested with nazis, but also unready for mainstream public adoption.
You should join peertube. Here's a tool to move your videos to peertube. You can even run your own instance on a raspberry pi. We can't rely on major corps to fence sit forever.
Couldn't someone just create and update a playlist on YouTube itself with breadtube content?
I have a fantasy that people will abandon YouTube en masse and use something like PeerTube and use something like patreon for funding, but I'm not holding my breath.
Not op but here you go. It is a very very good episode and heartbreaking to hear.

I'l admit, I am directly looking for evidence now and cant say I'm finding any. Straight up googling philosophy tube bi brings up nothing, the one thread that I found which connects him to bisexuality is a joke on how many formerly straight men found out they arent upon being attracted to him.
In fact I'v found curioscat answers he's given where the question outright labels him as cishet and he answers with no correction.
I don't have time to check the claims of the source in detail, but the guy writing the article is a fascist. So he is pretty biased.
> American intellectual elites have gone from defending Richard Spencer's right to speak in public spaces to embracing Chinese-style censorship in consensus.

>On the surface it may look and feel like critiques of Jewish power, liberalism and globalization are fringe and reaching the masses is impossible, but every day more and more Americans are jumping through a myriad of hoops to seek out our ideas. Looking at the total shut down of the ability for nationalists to reach the public, this means that at least some of the steady growth in interest is from word of mouth.

> The nationalists are still winning. The question now is how to leverage this popular power for real world political wins.
I also have severe doubts about the methodology employed.
> The traffic for the Southern Poverty Law Center's website is also in dire straits. From August to September, the SPLC lost almost half of its traffic, from 1.4 million visitors to 750,000.
August was an probably an outlier in SLPC traffic due to the dayton shooting.
They seem to be comparing traffic between different months. Traffic can differ wildly between months, especially if you compare highs and lows. A more accurate picture would be average across several months/ a subscriber growth. In short, this guy has every motivation to lie and employs dubious methodology. Ignore the propaganda and move on.
A lot of these problems are due to the fact that the IPv4/6 protocol itself is insecure, unstable, and is based on the client-server model by design. Have you ever looked at GNU Net? It's basically an entire re-imagining of the web with things like decentralization and federation baked in. I thought it couldn't possibly replace the Internet as we know currently, but it seems like it's really well thought out, despite still being in the planning phase. Perhaps you could look into it. Look, I don't see you as no simpleton, but your comments make feel pessimistic about the future of these things when I think there's a lot of good stuff. Maybe it's just me, but it can truly hurt sometimes :I . Just the fact that people are making a true effort to go against the grain is awesome.
Another tip then: if you're on android and have a rooted device you can have ad blocking on a system wide level via this app https://adaway.org/
Agreed about the surveillance, but still having no ads is better than nothing.
That's not fun :(
I'm seeing activity, but there can be all kinds of problems that prevent downloading. A couple things you can do to check.
First, if you go to the WebTorrent.io website, they have a video at the top that automatically starts downloading. You should be able to play it if everything is working properly. This is your test.
Next, make sure you have a fairly modern browser with Javascript. WebTorrent requires the WebRTC protocol to communicate with other nodes. This usually means Firefox or Chrome (or some other browser that is fairly current with standards) along with modern Javascript.
Let me know what you see.
That site looks good. I found bellingcat.com from viewing tildes.net. You have to have a referral in order to join though, which sucks, but I guess it's necessary, in a way? Just my two cents.
Matrix would be a better choice because it supports group discussions and can be used privately without giving up a phone number. XMPP would also be an OK choice and would be good for people to have as a backup.
Briar is also an option, but it's decentralised in a much different manner, and is intended to aid local organising, not online organising. It considers a much different threat model, and is far more secure than something like Signal if you need that security.

It's not a site per se. It's open source software that anyone can run on whichever server they'd like.
Every server has its own rules. Most of them refuse to host nazis. Every single one of them included on the homepage of the project (https://joinmastodon.org) had to agree not to host nazis, so you'll be fine if you join any of them.
There are some freeze peach warriors that started their own servers. Tusky (my favorite mobile client) decided to voluntarily block people from using their app to connect to the biggest of them. Freeze peach warriors tanked its Google Play ratings, but I swear that the app is magnificent. You just may want to decide where to create an account from the homepage of the project before using the app.
Stanley is one of the most significant political philosophers of our time. His book How Fascism Works: The Politics of Us and Them is a vitally important tool in understanding and combating modern fascism.
For anyone interested in reading where this comes from I suggest <em>Founding Fictions</em>. Rather sprightly and enjoyable with anecdotes of historical figures/times as well as very dense philosophical discourse and historical details.
I can't possibly spoiler it, but, it's all in the names.
Republican vs Democratic.
These are not coincidentally argued over terms. Our country was formed during a time in the mid-1700's when the idea of self-governance (implicitly via a republic) was growing. The idea of democracy (which was largely ridiculed by most of the 'founders' and the entire world of the Enlightenment) didn't gain traction until the early 1800s.
We have been fighting in a tug of war between a "pure republic government" and a "pure democratic government" ever since before the very first Federalist Paper.
Where did you get this insane understanding of history. That is not what happened. Cite anything. Neoliberalism was gestated in the mont pelerin society, applied to Argentina, shilled by the chamber of commerce and heritage foundation, hitched on to monetarism, and taken up by Reagan and Thatcher, then decried by the antiglobalization movement.

Sure!
This is the link to my Mic really cheap!
This also really helped making my audio much better in post production, I basically copied the tutorial to the T, with some slight changes based on what I thought sounded better.

Manufacturing Consent is great for conveying the kind of compounding self-selection of state and media apparatus. It's useful to have a conception of problems as systemic and reoccurring, and not just the result of bad actors.
Oh, The Jakarta Method also seems like a very good text. I haven't read it yet, but by all accounts it's a great overview of the disgusting anti-communist networks that were nourished by the US following WW2, and of the repeated mass murder that was used to enforce the impoverishment of the global south.
The video credits Bensounds.com for the background music but not this book for the research. It's a shame.
For those curious, the author of the book didn't begin his investigation by trying to look for connections between American corporate interests and the Holocaust. Instead, he was simply poking around to see what he could find out about a punch card machine that had wound up in the possession of the USHMM. He would then find out that not only did the Nazis used the punch card technology extensively throughout their operations but that even the numbers tattooed on death camp prisoners had their origin as punch card serials. Also, of course, as it turned out, Dehomag, a subsidiary of IBM at the time, was not only responsible for leasing the machines, but, due to the delicateness of the machines themselves, Dehomag was also responsible for providing the consumables, including the punch cards, for the machines.
The book itself also addressed several common arguments in defence of IBM. Some say that Dehomag went rogue and cut all ties with the parent firm, but that was shown to be false. Some also say IBM wasn't aware of the extent of the atrocity at the time, but newspapers showed people were protesting and launching boycotts of all sorts against it. Some also say that Nazis owned the machines, but the Nazis simply didn't have the capacity to even operate the machines without specialists from Dehomag on site. For every excuse IBM PR can find, the author has already got a response. It's simply that much of a good read.
Sure thing! This is what I use (sorry, it's an Australian link but if you look for the Blue Yeti on your Amazon I'm sure they sell it)
My mic is better for podcasting (two people facing each other) and surround sound. If you want something more compact but with the same audio quality and just a one-way direction, then the Blue Snowball is also amazing.
I'm not affiliated with Blue or Amazon (I rarely buy anything on Amazon) but I think my Blue Yeti is a high-quality USB mic and I've heard that the lower-priced Snowball is good too.
I really don't understand why the hell people use Chrome over Firefox! Chrome is just as buggy for me, you can't get good ad-block to save your life on Chrome, and Firefox is run by a non-profit. Plus, people hate NordVPN so much, but Firefox literally gives you a free VPN!
Download ExpressVPN and set it to UK, this show needs higher viewership, it's a brilliant and painful to watch but they need to see there is a fanbase for these kind of revelatory programming that shines a light into the cruelty of conservative policies.
