So setting aside your epic warstories about people not being as right online as you, do you deny that there is a strong tendency among online left posters to be pro-Syria regime change, downplay the issues with Jolani, reverse the dynamic of Zionism to make the USA a helpless puppet, and paint Iran as an inactive deadbeat father of the resistance? Because I know exactly what they're referring to already. It's certainly not doing "Marxist analysis", it's reposting Al Jazeera, MEE, and other sources which are funded by US NGOs or Qatar. Sometimes with a quick ancient history lesson to remind everyone how smart we all are, if you're lucky you get a cute analogy.

I'm sure Hezbollah is doing great with the collapse of Syrian supply lines.

Anyways, this is the best time to ignore the DSA Third Worldist-HTS Caucus. They are preoccupied treating this like a basketball match and falling for disinformation left and right. What could better prove my point than posting a Telegram screenshot?

It would explain how people are acting right now if they stopped paying attention right as True Promise II actually arrived and never saw it, since that's exactly when the Israel Wins Simulator shut off.

I think it's a great way to trick liberals into reading a bit of dependency theory.

It seems nobody on Lemmy actually reads articles but me

Actual Bernie Sanders: "the protestors are giving Trump what he wants" 🤔🤔🤔

I already have a folder for this variety of news. 👀 Yeah, it needs containment, more to escape the focus applied by humanitarian orgs than freaking out. You do want to make sure you have an idea what you're looking for e.g. searching a particular country's name.

Interesting, I haven't seen the "pure AP" thing, will check it out. Yeah I'm not attached to any particular model of it, since there are pros and cons of each, and they have the same basic structure (communities on lemmy appear as users reposting whatever mentions them, you could represent imageboard communities the same way, etc etc). Hopefully people evolve beyond just imitating popular social media products.

Appreciated!

Yeah self-hosting stuff like RSSHub is the best way. If you want a quick solution the demo of this works up to 1,000 feeds. https://www.commafeed.com/ Which of course, nobody would ever reach, so don't ask how I know.

Try making an RSS feed and sticking to offbeat or informative sources (avoid AFP, AP, Reuters, Western mainstream media as a whole, or reactionary media anywhere, whatever they say which is actually important will be repeated elsewhere). I can imagine why Telegram and Lemmy would bother you, as many people get invested in a particular interpretation or prediction. This makes it a lot more stressful to figure out what's going on.

90% of piracy is technically savvy workers taking back something they produced for a tiny fraction of what it was worth, often something which was abandoned, or people stealing movies. Yes, there are teenagers who will pirate indie games. Most of them didn't have the money for them anyways.

If piracy wasn't possible I would probably be against computers entirely
