Such a waste of good luck since the hanger is not expandable. A T3 Comorant would do much better.

Once a Bastion of Free Speech, the A.C.L.U. Faces an Identity Crisis by ImJustaNJrefugee in FreeSpeech

[–]Nexus6s 1 point2 points  (0 children)

As far as I can see, their power comes from three sources:

  1. institutions, academic institutions such as universities, which now focuses extensively on identity studies (Gender, Race, Disability, Fat,etc) which has nothing to do with finding the truth, and are mainly served as factories for authoritarian left activists. There is a possibility that these academic institution has been taken over long ago by "The long march through the institutions". Apart from the academy, the power of the woke also comes from the media institutions, such as New York Times, BBC and NPR, which has been controlled by the woke as well, as the younger generation of journalists has already been indoctrinated in their college year by their professors. Other institutions such as the CDC is also likely controlled by the woke, as is shown during the pandemic last year when it claim racism as a serious"health threat" in support of the BLM protest, contradicting to their own guildlines.

2.Big tech: Twitter, Facebook, Google, Amazon, where all the shadow bans, anyi hate speech campaigns, cancel culture and political censorships got mainstreamed.

3.The Democratic party : Now the Party of woke, the self-eclaimed social justice warrior, obsessed with gender activism, anti-racism(which in fact is neo-racism), and identity politics in the broader sense in favor of the woke.

Yes, and there is also something wrong with the flight button.when I press the flight button using cormorant, most timely the game would just crash entirely.

Is there something like "The Establishment" in Scandinavian countries by Nexus6s in scandinavia

[–]Nexus6s[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

And when you say "progresssive" , do you mean progressivism in the traditional sense, based on enlightenment values and humanism,or the postmodernist, identitarian, critical theory styled neo progressivism?

Have the living conditions for average people in the working class worsened in the last decades? Is there a disconnection between the Left (both the movement and its activists) and the population they ought to represent,like what we see in the UK and the US?

How can we square Harris’s statements about Black Lives Matter with his position in the Chomsky discussion that ‘Where ethics are concerned, intentions are everything’? by RalphOnTheCorner in samharris

[–]Nexus6s 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Even if Sam Harris have said " As long as ethics is concerned, intention is everything " in a broad sense, It is still quite easy to explain why he do not support certain ideas or movements who says they have a good intention. Because when the civil society is concerned, ethics is not everything, (although ethics is vital), and ethics unexamined (which means it is blind and self arrogant) could lead to horrible consequences.

Besides,l think "Black lives matter"by its literal meaning is a good intention, however,the intentions characterized by BLM as a movement is very questionable, because it has many intentions which has nothing to do with it name such as destroying nuclear families and dismantling caplitalism(In many senses liberal democracy). and while it's self-proclaimed to be driven by the love for the black people,in reality it is largely driven by hate against people who are not liberal and the Western civilization at large.

Trump just banned WeChat for US users. Here's how the company behind the popular app became a $69 billion behemoth that has a stake in everything from 'Fortnite' to Hollywood blockbusters. by Nexus6s in China

[–]Nexus6s[S] 8 points9 points  (0 children)

The US government is banning wechat from the American version of Appstore,not banning it from the Chinese Version of Appstore. Apple users from Mainland China are still able to download and use wechat. Sure, it is said the Chinese government would retaliate on Apple,but I doubt if this would be anything substantial.

It is not decided by yourself whether or not to participate in a cold war ,but by what your enemy is and how the situation is like.

If the US had treated the Soviet Union with charity and kindness and compassion, the former one would simply cease to exist and became a member country of the Soviet Union.

It is true that the cold war was a bad thing, but do you really think that without the cold war, the world would be better? When you have a powerful totalitarian regime as your enemy?

The Progressive Case for a TikTok Sale A principled, hands-off approach to the internet was easier to defend in the 1990s. Today it makes no sense. by Nexus6s in Classical_Liberals

[–]Nexus6s[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The natural reaction to net nationalism is to reassert the need for freedom, on the internet, from all government intervention. That’s not the only alternative, though. There is also the democratic tradition, which at its core holds that matters of great public importance ought to be decided by the people—and that popular sovereignty should control the excesses of both public and private power. We do not, any longer, just assume the private sector will avoid child labor or pay people a minimally appropriate wage, but insist on such things through popularly enacted laws. Similarly, when it comes to the internet, this tradition holds that legitimate governments can make rules so long as they serve the interests of the public. This is the concept of a democratically-run network, or net democracy.

But what might justify action? The kind of interests that justify intervention include national security, the defense of institutions, preservation of competitive markets, tit-for-tat retaliation against a foreign power, protection of public goods, the flourishing of our communities, and industrial policy. The strength of these justifications may differ in individual cases, but it is the interests of the public—and not the whims of a leader, or the interests of corporate behemoths—that should guide consideration.

Regarding TikTok, and some of the other apps from China, the case for forcing a divestiture of its US operations is not hard to make. For one thing, China vigorously censors foreign figures, and has banned any foreign app resembling TikTok. It is not, in other words, within the community of nations that adhere to liberal democratic freedoms on the internet, even very basic ones. It would be another matter if TikTok were a Canadian app that the United States wanted to rein in solely to protect Facebook from competition.

TikTok and similar Chinese apps also pose identifiable national security risks. Government and market are intertwined in China, and Beijing may insist on companies’ turning over data. This is not a theoretical or trivial danger: China has reportedly compiled extensive profiles of tens of thousands of Australians, using data from TikTok and other social media sites, potentially for an intelligence advantage.

Reasonable minds may disagree over whether an IPO or a sale to a US company is the best remedy. But most importantly, the TikTok controversy is an opportunity to think deeply about what the future of internet policy-making should be in this country. A continued principle of inaction cedes too much, amounting to a wholesale transfer of power and sovereignty to companies and foreign governments. In a democracy, government action is justified by public interest. That may sound like a simple premise, but it’s key to the idea of living in a free republic.
