Ask Lemmy@lemmy.world•What's one book everyone should read at least once in their lifetime?
2·3 months agoThis book is very well written but I disagreed completely with the premise. I believe is true that we don’t choose to be born. We’re forced into existence kicking and screaming but that’s the nature of being. We are born we grow up we procreate and then we die. Some of us don’t procreate by choice but I feel the desire to have offspring is innate to being alive. Some people and beings have a stronger desiree than others, and there’s nothing wrong on following through and cires related to the suffering we impar into our offspring is not reason not to do it. Just like children’s role is not to take care of their parents when they’re old. All things considered, this is quite a philosophical debate.

World News@lemmy.world•People of Burkina Faso should forget about democracy, says military rulerEnglish
22·6 months agoI’m not anti democracy I just think a version of this ideals already showed up in that society with Sankara and he got murdered. I think the forces of democracy actually end up backfiring and the victims become anti democratic given the violent way they’re “democratized” also France has taken advantage of Burkina Faso for so many years by imposing the euro to their economy at fixed rates, and robbing their gold. At this point, they have tried the western ways, and the only thing that’s truly stupid is trying something twice that you know doesn’t work for you.

813·6 months agoThe guardian is a Western source allied with France view of the world. To truly understand what he said we’d need to be living in a context where western ideals aren’t a given. The history of this country is just suffering no matter what. He may be worse than the colonist but it’s their right to govern themselves as they see fit. Democracy can also bring you fascists who have no care for the population as we are all experiencing.
I love kagi and I’m questioning if my level of commitment is to renew for another year and year after that. I find pricey but worth it. The Internet is better without ads being pushed down your throat. The only thing that’d make it perfect is having map service to Google level. Open street maps is not there yet but is a fun time mapping my surroundings, however the level of usefulness of Google maps is still unmatched for me. Otherwise, Kagi has been amazing and I recommend them, I hope they trigger true competition in the search markets because when the search engines work for ads instead of people the Internet is so much worse

News@lemmy.world•More ‘No Kings’ protests targeting Trump are planned nationwide this weekend
24·6 months agoHope people really take over the streets everywhere. What this clown has done to the country is irreparable damage in the short to medium term. The world will keep turning but the US won’t be leading it any longer. For all the fear mongering China may as well take the lead from now on. At least those authoritarians bordering dictators have improved China unlike our corporate overlords on this side of the Pacific.
The UK is winning some and losing others, prosecute pedophiles but also creating a police state in the island. The surveillance level there rivals China. The internet is less free every passing year that we allow illiterate politicians decide for the people. The complete disregard of our privacy just because they don’t understand the nature of the internet or technology is astonishing, at best, and that’s giving them the benefit of the doubt that this is not plain out government overreach on the private citizens lives.

News@lemmy.world•Gen Z is the first generation dumber than their parents, neuroscientist claims
141·8 months agoThese young people think that being conservative is forward looking and rebellious…they’re so so wrong. Sadly they’ll be the ones creating the policies for the foreseeable future, and their dumb choices will hunt those of us that still have a quite a bit of time in planet earth. Idiocracy wasn’t a movie but a documentary.
I think I agree with you. I usually select the text to do an action and the choices are useful. I don’t select for the better reading, if anything it’s just to highlight the text.

12·2 years agoI hope this keeps growing. I’m loving it here, and the fediverse idea is amazing. I hope we succeed and descentralize social media. Power to the people again





Oh my goodness gotta cross border with burner phones now. What a horror dystopia and completely anti American. Well I guess is mask off time with the fascists. The federal government has antagonized everyone from other countries to its own states.
The end of this overreach can only be achieved by class solidarity hope we succeed
