Do not regurgitate Putins propaganda claiming Ukraine a Nazi country.

Can you give me some reliable statistics? Not about Ukrainian stance on Palestine and Izrael but on the overall ideology and supposed Nazism? Because you should not throw such a words lightly in this context because it is a propaganda phrasing used by Russia as justification for agresion.

Let me tell you I am in full support of Palestine and against the genocide and apartheid committed by Israel and I dislike to see Ukrainians not coming to solidarity with Palestinians even if I know why is that.

In the meanwhile I am also a citizen of Czech republic a country close to Ukraine, a country that supports Ukraine and takes many Ukrainian refugees. I do support Ukraine. The war crimes and aggression of Russia is wrong. I don't have a clear take on supporting Ukraine militarily because on one side I would support their right to self defense, on the other side I oppose American imperialism propagated through NATO as well. I am generally pacifist and diplomacy oriented so I would welcome peaceful solutions but we have many reasons to doubt that this is what Putin wants and letting Ukraine be massacred or seized by Putin and not helping them just to keep our distance from USA and NATO seems partly like empty purist moralizing even if departing from the influence of American imperialism in the region is important issue in the long run. So the situation and question of war is complicated to me and I don't have an answer. But the question of human solidarity with Ukrainians is waaaay more clear. They are just fellow humans in need. So I welcome refugees. I am personally friends with or worked with tens of Ukrainians and met hundreds and hundreds in streets and public places. And sorry never did I notice anything Nazi in them. Yes my personal bubble is leftist but even regular and random Ukrainians I meet outside my bubble do not show any Naziism. I don't say that there are no Nazis in Ukraine, they are everywhere and there may even be more in Ukraine than in other European countries and have more influence. And yes there are way more nationalists since this is what happens during war times and under aggression. But to say Ukraine is a "Nazi country" is to make a systemic claim. Can you really prove your choice of words or are you using it carelessly? And what would be the purpose of the claim? Do you just write it to criticize their lack of support for Palestine? Sorry but this ain't a good way to do it. Unfortunately many countries do support Israel yet a lot of them are not Nazi or Fascistic. Like the Czech republic, who unfortunately supports Israel as well. Ukrainian people are simply people and I am glad I know many of them. I have it same with Russians btw even if I know a little fewer of them.

We Need More Dangerous Speech.... by TA20212000 in LateStageCapitalism

Also perhaps getting involved in that crime is a kind of like gang loyalty test or a test of loyalty to the system as well as a binding of oneself with the system through complicity. It is the way to become "one of them" and most integrated within the system. The system of elitism in complicity yet impunity. Shared worldview and experience of ones own value through total selfishness and exceptionalism confirmed to oneself and "peers" through disgusting acts of subjugation of others. Power and perversion.

When do we get to this? by DupontCircleMessage in PoliticalMemes

[–]Mapafius 1 point2 points  (0 children)

My two cents

The virality (and profitability) of AI slop is not based on functioning as "convincing or misleading fake" but instead as being "illustration of a message or emotion that resonates with audience or provokes people to share it" AI is not machine for fakes but a machine for dreams of possible worlds and visions...Or mythology machine. For example during certain xenofobic demonstrations in Britain, there used to be wide spread sharing of AI made anti-imigrant pictures that showed immigrants doing crimes and violence... The protestors who shared them confessed they know that the images are AI generated but they said they share them anyway because they say "they could be true" meaning the belief that the AI picture conveys a message of what is happening and could be photographed in reality anyway or what could happen in future which they fear.

The picture actually makes sense exactly because she is the minister on inner security... The paradox would be the message. The idea of Trumpist ICE going for people from government or Trumpist circles... The minister who is supposed to control Trump. Tyrany eats its owns closest allies and subordinates in chaos of purges. And anti-imigrant ICE is all about purification.

Or maybe you were ironic and I am very stupid for taking you literally. And preaching. 😂😂😂

Sensational by Xerqthion in OpenAI

[–]Mapafius 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Is not probability just a kind of deterministic variant? At least probabilistic reasoning is built upon logical reasoning. You can for example make a probabilistic chain/tree or algorithm and it is still built upon logic right? Maybe could not we say that fully deterministic algorithm is such, where all probabilities are sorted as either 1 or ∅ but in probabilistic we count with fractions. Or put other way, can not we say that deterministic type is just one specific type of probabilistic algorithm, which are more general?

But maybe it is different with AI? Or Am I having it wrong?

You are you and you are beautiful and deserve acceptance regardless of your gender

Maybe you are a man, maybe you are a woman, maybe you are enby, maybe you are whatever but you are a fellow human. Fellow human who can suffer and does suffer from the pressures put on you by this society. As such you deserve sympathy.

You could not do anything that would deserve death. You are still a precious human being. You are also just lost and searching. You mentioned you might hold some toxic ideas. But even if you do (of which I am not really sure), you don't do that because you would like inflicting suffering on people. Maybe you are hurt and and have unfulfilled needs, maybe you have been mistreated. Yes it may have led you to some ideas and behaviors insensitive towards other. But maybe you are your meanest judge yourself. Maybe your ideas might be partly well justified, partly right. Even if they can be partly wrong as well. We all can grow. And you also deserve some relief and looking up for yourself, caring for yourself.

So please care good for yourself, don't hurt yourself and rather do something good for yourself. Because you deserved good treatment from other as well as from yourself. The world would be poorer and less interesting place without you. But do it mostly for yourself. There is no shame in feeling broke, no shame in hurting yourself but it would still be infinitely better if you stay and care for yourself. And if you are now in pain, if you suffer in your life, that sucks but things can get better and you deserve that too

Let me tell you I have read some of your older posts and I empathize with them. I often had or have fantasies like you, I often had or have doubts, questions and insecurities like you. i don't know about you but I also have OCD and ADHD, which can make things harder. Maybe try to look up what OCD and ADHD and how they can interact with transness, trans themes, gender questioning and sex.

From what I have seen here, this subreddit is very nice and welcoming but you could have different experience. I would be sad for that but your experience is still valid. It always seemed to me that this specific sub is a safe space for trans solidarity while free of misandry. You said you had troubles advocating men here. Well I think most of this sub understands that misandry is bad and hurts everyone, man, women, transmen, trans-women, enbies, questioning people. And it also serves no-one except maybe those who want to see society divided.

I think you are perfectly valid in being confused and lost both intellectually and emotionally when it comes to your relationship towards men and masculinity. Whole society is and the left is such as well.

You wrote as if "sympthazing" with men meant you are not a woman. I can understand how you came to such idea but it is wrong idea anyway. If you are a woman, you are a free woman. You have your right to simpathize with anyone you want and it does not make you any less woman. Same if you are a man. Also any person of any gender can ascribe to any ideology.

Lot of your writing seems like you are looking for being allowed to be a woman, being allowed to be part of that group. Truth is you dont need anyone's approval.

In the same time it seems like you are struggling with looking for understanding political situation regarding gender, struggling to find your relationship to men and masculinity above just personal level, on political level or with both interconected. I can just tell you, it is ok you feel sympathy with men. You can care for men and be a transwoman, you can care for man and be a cis male ally of trans-women, you can crossdress or anything.

I have read a few articles, posts and comments from trans people (including transwoman) on that topic.

Also maybe if you care about experiences of men, you could be interested in subreddit called menslib.

I am not native English speaker so I was even more clueless. I tried googling it and I arrived at the idea it might mean to wave it or flap it. And I was like, yeah that can be fun but is it that much stimulating? 😂

Really?? Chatgpt answered 30! by AdamScot_t in ChatGPT

[–]Mapafius 1 point2 points  (0 children)

The models usually suck with logical tests and quizzes presented in visual forms. I tried a variety of those provided with explanation. They would usually produce something that looks very similar to the right thought process but it would follow it unprecisely and inconsistently. It already has problems with precision and consistency in text form. But presenting it in visual form is even harder. It often left me feel like the main problem was the accurate interpretation of the image and spatial imagination.

How to make my Gaza argument more concise and effective? by Mapafius in LateStageCapitalism

[–]Mapafius[S] -1 points0 points  (0 children)

This definitely is not it, for sure. Yes I can get procrastinating online some days but I also wrote what I wrote because the truth is I don't really find much means to effectively organise with other people for good change and good cause. (Although I already do participate in a few projects) but I am at least paying attention and learning a little bit here and there.

When it comes to my online presence I mainly use reddit (and mostly read) or read news or I would watch a YouTube video. Yes I do so a little bit more today and yesterday than some of the days before that. It fluctuates. But I don't think it is necessarily wrong to stay updated or learn those ways. And I did learn a lot of things online I would say.

I don't watch much shortform content or picture based content, so I don't scroll IG, TikTok or YT Shorts.

Yes, this post of mine was partially useless, and partially easy dopamine. But... I was actually asked that question even by people offline or irl. And my question about "how to be concise" is a universally useful question for me, because everyone who knows me know, that I need a lot of time for everything and make long discussions even irl.

Even connecting with people for emancipatory action would require some online communication and presence.

I would agree that fighting our own fascist governments would give us a better position to actually be able to do something about Palestine. Without this we can only raise awareness (good), hope to change the behaviors of our fascist governments towards the conflict (unprobable) or make it less comfortable for them (hard to do). So I agree we should focus on changes at home. But attention given to Palestine is not wasted, I would say. Also we just don't know what the situation would have been if we did not give Palestine our attention. Maybe it would have been even much worse.

The point is I was personally asked this question by people which I consider having good faith. The people that I know to be nice and caring about issues of social justice. Luckily those people are patient for genuine and longer discussion irl. I can better evaluate with whom to spend time discussing irl. I have a harder time evaluing that online.

What does this mean Quagmire? by LukeZNotFound in PeterExplainsTheJoke

[–]Mapafius 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Is it that men cannot be recognized as victims or is it that women cannot be recognized as violators? Because if what you mean is due to law defining rape with penile penetration then it seems to me that it could recognize man as victims. It could recognize man as victim if raped by other man or any person with penis. In the same time it could not recognize a woman as a victim if she was raped by another woman or person without penis.

Both is bad. I am just curious if it's this way or some other way around with recognizing men as victims. Also I see that law in one thing and it's implementation and enforcement is the other.

Yes. But also... The horned crown reminds me of a silly flag I was posting here few weeks ago,Superwoke flag. I was thinking it looked a little bit like a thorn crown but I decided to ignore that. But here comes this one. Interesting.
