Young Women in Afghanistan on the Taliban: "Your Arrival Transformed My Dreams into Nightmares" (www.spiegel.de)

The lives of Kobra, Najia, Madina, Sonya and Zahra looked as though they were just getting started two years ago. When the Taliban captured the Afghan capital of Kabul, they were about to finish school, working towards a university degree or beginning a career. Suddenly, though, their lives changed dramatically....

soviettaters ,

The Afghan government under the US was run by Muslims. I’d rather have a Muslim in government than a racist like you.

soviettaters ,

I knew racist wasn’t the right word, but it gets the point across.

soviettaters ,

Dude, Ukraine was invaded. The last time the US has had to use a draft for circumstances like this was the Civil War, and everyone now thinks it was warranted then.

Motorolas are my favorite type of phone. I’m never going to use Apple and Samsung phones are bloated with garbage I don’t want. It’s not like there’s another real option.

soviettaters ,

I got the version with the stylus of this phone solely because the version without the stylus didn’t have an NFC chip. The stylus is kinda neat though.

soviettaters ,

The Nothing Phone is the only other real option, but it’s also one phone while Motorola has several options for several different price ranges. OnePlus is purely Chinese (I know Motorola isn’t perfect but it could be worse). Google Pixels aren’t cheap.

soviettaters ,

OnePlus was fully designed and created in China while Motorola was bought out by Lenovo. Motorola is still fishy but it’s technically still an American company so I feel better about it. It’s just false hope that my data isn’t being stolen, privacy is dead anyways.

First people push for mass abortions of disabled people (see Iceland), next they try to make living disabled people’s lives horrible. Eugenics is making a comeback and nobody cares.

soviettaters ,

Same with Democrats tbh. There are many, many people who would vote for a moderate Republican if not for abortion.

soviettaters ,

I hate defederation with a passion and I’m close to leaving lemmy.world because of its rash defederating. There is no reason to restrict users based on what the few leaders believe.

soviettaters ,

They literally all exist because of big tech. There’s no point of a virtual assistant existing except to gather data.

TIL about Eugene Debs, a 1920 Socialist candidate who ran for President while jailed in Federal prison for sedition, receiving 3.4% of the vote at the time. He promised to pardon himself if elected. (en.wikipedia.org)

Eugene Debs, a Socialist leader in the early 20th century, ran for President five times. His fifth and highest vote count came in the 1920 Presidential election, in which he was running while in Federal prison for sedition. He received about 3.4% of the vote at the time (which included women for the first time since the...

Two U.S. Navy Servicemembers Arrested for Transmitting Military Information to the People’s Republic of China (www.justice.gov)

In two separate cases in the Southern and Central Districts of California, two U.S. Navy servicemembers were arrested for transmitting sensitive military information to the People’s Republic of China (PRC)....

soviettaters ,

They are distinctly not Chinese-American, at least one of them isn’t. One of them received their citizenship while selling secrets to China. He became a citizen to destroy us easier. These men were purely Chinese.

soviettaters ,

Where would someone go if they were being discriminated against? I’m assuming they would go to the DEI office before.

soviettaters ,

No, that’s just what Starbucks calls their Chai because it has milk in it. I know it’s not authentic but it’s quite good.

soviettaters ,

Ah yes, Slay News, the most reputable news source in America.

soviettaters ,

These were extremists…who killed other extremists. Crazy people will find any reason to kill and religion just happens to be the most accessible.

Maryland police are using drones from a Chinese company that were banned in four states (www.businessinsider.com)

Maryland police are using drones from a Chinese company that were banned in four states::One Maryland officer told a local news station that they have searched for other manufacturers of drones and none live up to the quality of DJI.

soviettaters ,

I mean…if you think that UAVs will help police spy on you then you’re just paranoid. They don’t have time for that, and even if they did they would just be more blatant since they have that right.

soviettaters ,

Those don’t look enough like real money to be illegal. These do.

This is local news at best.

Kuwait to distribute 100,000 copies of Quran in Sweden after Muslim holy book desecrated at one-man protest (www.cbsnews.com)

Kuwait announced this week that it will print thousands of copies of the Quran in Swedish to be distributed in the Nordic country, calling it an effort to educate the Swedish people on Islamic “values of coexistence.” The plan was announced after the desecration of a Quran during a one-man anti-Islam protest that Swedish...

soviettaters ,

If I had relatives killed by extremist Jews (yeah, yeah, just hear me out), would it be okay for me to promote Nazi ideology and idolize the Holocaust? Hate is wrong in every circumstance.

soviettaters ,

I haven’t seen it but I’m sure it’s about as reverent as every other show out there. Frankly, who cares?

soviettaters ,

The white liberals building this technology say they’re all progressive yet only surround themselves with people like them and only build products for people like them. A lack of diversity in tech like this is a lack of good testing.

TikTok has been pushing Chinese propaganda to millions of users in Europe: analysis (nypost.com)

TikTok has been pushing Chinese propaganda to millions of users in Europe: analysis::More than 1,000 ads from Chinese state media outlets have run on European users’ TikTok feeds since October 2022, according to the platform’s latest ad library update that was analyzed by Forbes.

soviettaters ,

The New York Post isn’t committing cultural genocide right now.

soviettaters ,

So all those ads that the government poured millions of dollars into which told people to get vaccinated were bad? Or are you saying that Chinese propaganda is good?

soviettaters ,

China literally has concentration camps dedicated to wiping out millions of Uighurs. Go back to China tankie.

soviettaters ,

If I don’t then people will say “oh it’s not actually genocide because they aren’t exterminating anybody”.

soviettaters ,

The 777X is moving along, albeit somewhat slowly. Boeing has just been limping along.

soviettaters ,

Not really. People who use the apps are trying to preserve (conserve) the time when privacy wasn’t an afterthought. It’s not working, but they’re sure trying.

soviettaters ,

What I mean is that privacy is no longer mainstream. The software shown does work but the majority of people don’t use it or don’t even know what it is.

soviettaters ,

What about sustainable fuels for ICEs? I know little about them but isn’t that a more reasonable option due to it being able to be used on current cars?

soviettaters ,

Yeah Samsung sucks. I am never going to leave Android so if I want a decent lower-midrange phone I have to stick with Motorola.

soviettaters OP ,

I’m curious, what specifically did you notice about Reddit shifting to the right? I’m talking about the content on it btw

soviettaters OP ,

You’re saying it’s conservative for being anti-China? China may say it’s Communist but any leftist is against the CCP.

soviettaters OP ,

It’s shower thoughts, a place to post random things you realize throughout the day.

soviettaters OP ,

I always hear people say that but I can’t figure out why; in some ways, Europe is more right wing (specifically anti-immigrant) than the US. Can you give any examples?

soviettaters OP ,

Agreed, although many people claim that Britain is increasingly privatizing their healthcare. I suppose I’m just saying that the American right simply cares about different issues than the European right.

soviettaters OP ,

That’s fair, thank you for your detailed response.

soviettaters ,

I’ve had it for a couple months and get compliments on it all the time!
