Iirc the sum she allegedly sent from an american bank to the UAF fundraiser is reported as low as $58. Sentences for treason are between 12 and 20 years. Originally she was arrested for small administrative charges but as she was held captive they probably accessed her phone.
Puta can have many meanings, almost all of them are obscenities. Here I believe the translation would be 'little bitch', although the correct phrase would be putita.
You've also got 'puta X' which roughly translates to 'fuck X'.
It is a very flexible word in the Spanish lexicon xD
The point was to have lots of different places, so if you don't like the rules of one, you can go to another.
It's the freedom of choice to choose what communities you want to be a part of, not the freedom to say whatever you like with no regard to other people in the community.
Yeah of course, I’m not talking about “free speech absolution!” or any other Elon Musk bullshit, just freedom from the disingenuous nannying of corporations and the need to be “advertiser friendly.”
I, of course, understand the point and merits of instanced federation, but I think it’s still okay to speak in wide generalities when more specific language isn’t needed.
My point isn’t that instances shouldn’t be allowed to censor however they see fit, of course they should, my point is that the “default” censorship of much of the internet has nothing to do with merit or conduct or even morality and is instead almost entirely catering to advertisers so we shouldn’t embrace said “default” censorship.
Having safe spaces in the public square is fine so long as nobody is trying to turn the whole of the public square into one. I see the value if an instance wants to wholesale ban all negativity so as to create a island of positivity in the ocean of discontent, for one example. My objection was only to the implication of terms pertaining to the whole of the public square.
The censoring is a local setting, meaning the actual data in the database is untouched. It's only being censored at user level. But yes, any instance being viewed though that instance's web app is being censored.
There may be an option to turn it off. Look in your user settings.
Russia is arresting anyone with ties to the U.S. in an attempt to build up their negotiating chips. Several U.S. citizens are being held in Russia right now on fake charges.
A conservative (like Putin) is not capable of honesty. Every word uttered by a conservative is deception or manipulation. Every word.
