I am not sure communism really evr existed in big scale, so the meme is not accurate. Please don’t say Stalin was communist, unkess you don’t want to read me saying I am a pole dancer (I am not).

Lemmers?

I am quite new here, I didn’t have reddit, I come from fb. I choose Lemmy because it is not own by a fucking schizophrenic billionarie (I mean shittenberg, I don’t know who owns reddit, but it is USA and, not to offend anyone, but I am very fed of USA in general) and this for me is enough. I think the issue with our data is mainly what companies do with it (of course the privacy principle itself too matters), and the issue with centralization is that here I am free to say to an admin or a mod to go fuck himself, if I ever feel doing so. And change my instance. This is something unimaginable in the classic socials. You pointed out a list of reasons but actually didn’t elaborate any of them, and I am curious. Please elaborate.

Well I didn’t even know the meaning of that “s”!

Thank you! According to your explication of memes, which I agree on, the whole thing would be quite sad and risky, socially speaking. Because it means we all would be giving away our ability to pick a very specific term for an already-existent one, possibly since the second option is just cheaper, in terms of effort. This regardless that the one we chose is not the most suitable and could even be misleading, included “sanewashining”. For example, people reading that Meta is trying to buy Trump’s goodwill will be probably more gentle in judging Meta, while the journalust goal was maybe to describe how Meta is a dangerous company (if it wasnt his, it is surely mine). This specific attempt partially failed, of course. So “sane-washing” is in itself a sane-washing term to indicate a more or less serious kind of misinformation. In this sense, smaller newspapers are more likely to avoid this linguistic simplification, since they are probably less controlled by statal agencies (maybe I am wrong?). I appreciate very much your insight, and though I know everyone is biased, I will take a look at your suggestions.

Hope we can bend them over soon.

Liked this ahah

Not huge, indeed. It is possible, and desirable, that the EU is playing strategy with them. Maybe they hit softly now, just to show they mean to go on this regulation-path they choose, and to give a “warning”. Maybe they considered a too aggressive fine could make things worse. I’m not sure, just thinking.

Honesty and straightforwardness are no more part of the journalistic typical speech. They are mostly busy to be presentable, even when their job suffers from this.

Me inscribí a Feddit esperando encontrar gente mas inteligente y no los mismos gusanos que infestan Facebook. Evidentemente me equivocaba.

Very good article.

Be careful, “greatest” has never been a good match with USA. Never. My ears hurt when I hear that.

It’s not overused, it’s just that things can worsen without limit.

I’d shoot myself rather than using Airbnb again.
