I don't believe he was arguing that Mahmound is a Nazi. He's noting that Trump, Elon, the far right etc... defend the hell out of Nazi's and white supremicists with "I'm not saying I agree with it, but I'll defend your right to say it, we're free speach purists", right up until someone with ideology that strongly opposes their views starts also talking... then it's shut him up, get rid of him.

That's literally the thing though, and perhaps where the USSR went wrong. There is no magic bullet that would make a small nation able to survive a large attack, asside from strong allies with a ton of bigger nations, and sadly being different, and a possible threat to the status quo, doesn't help with that.

That's like saying being a serial killer helps survival over being a law abiding citizen that cares about others. Proof when I put a law abiding citizen and a serial killer in a locked room... the law abiding citizen doesn't live as long. Of course the reality is, being a serial killer is evolved as the exception rather than the rule in humans, because, with numbers not making enemies is a more succesful strategy than always making them.

But 2 large economies tried to impliment communism... while engaged in a cold war against much more entrenched ideologies, while having corrupt leaders and they didn't do it well.

I think that is a current weakness that's being worked on, I'm seeing requests of more or less that https://github.com/LemmyNet/lemmy/issues/4485

to make it federate or block, but unless I'm missing much newer updates, that is kind of the problem. My guess is on the whole it mostly resolves itself as... he probably will piss off the mods of cafe eventually as well, and the limited audience of only being visible to cafe would result in a near shadow ban effect to mostly starve them out.

well we're talking tarrifs, what are the penguins exporting to the US...

and I suppose maybe they aren't doing a good enough job combating fentonyl crossing over to the US.

So... it's entirely because we don't do enough business with russia right now.

God damn, how much are the penguins shipping over here.

That's my understanding of it, I'm not an expert so.. I'm only giving 70% confidence in my answer.

Put simply, Lets say hypothetically he's like you on lemmy.cafe.

and we'll say he's posting to to lemmy.world/c/memes which he was banned from.

His post will show up to lemmy.cafe users connected to memes... but his posts will only show up on the lemmy.cafe version of memes. When cafe federates back to world, world will just ignore the posts and not share them.

In addition they won't be seen by, lets say programming.dev here, while it hasn't banned this person, it's looking to world for it's copy of the community, which will not have your friends posts.

What if we just delay another month! that should do even more confidence...

I mean the concept seems pretty obvious. Obviously it won't be supprising when a film is made completely through AI... What will be suprising will be if it doesn't suck.

I find it weird that this is being viewed as a difference between the 2, when to me the quotes seem pretty much the same. IE the father

father: "I see you did this, it's terrible and I want nothing to do with it, it's an insult to life".

Son: "I don't think it's unlikely people will make a movie entirely through AI, whether anyone will want to see it is anyone's guess".

I don't see any quotes from the son on his opinion of quality, and if anything I see skepticism towards quality. I don't think anyone can deny, a lot of people are going to try really hard to make full movies entirely from AI. That's as obvious of a statement as "people will try to make cars that drive themselves".

Again I think our problem is the concept of what we are calling "AI". IE I'm only talking of basically AI Generated art/avitars. If done in a consistant way I don't think it even quite qualifies as AI. Really just glorified puppetry. There's no "trustworhtyness", because it doesn't deal in facts. It's job is literally just to take a consistant 3D model, and make it move like the defendent moves. It's old tech used in movies etc... for years, and since it's literally dealing in only appearence any "hacks" etc... would be plainly visible to any observers

Don't worry we have a solution. Immigration gold cards... why would people illegally buy their way into the country, when there's a legal way to buy your way into the country with drug/trafficing money.
