@admitsWrongIfProven OK, dann können wir aufhören. Ich glaube ich hab klar genug gemacht wo der Unterschied liegt.
Wir haben einen Angriffskrieg gegen ein dumpfes Gefühl der Bedrohung durch ein Verteidigungsbündnis. Aber klar das rechtfertigt einen Angriff.
@shadowsonawall Wait, this is public? I would have put CW if i knew that -.-
Is copying someones URL not a way to send a dm? Couldn't find how to dm you - sometimes there is a ... menu, sometimes there is not.
@shadowsonawall That was a good one!
Using a bible quote that was designed to make people give up their self (cutting into the we are one narrative), yet so broad it is basically meaningless!
I really struggled to make something out of this that was halfway coherent. I really appreciate that.
At some point this arc will surely become unservicable, but lets see how far we can take it before it feels stale.
@toplesstopics I started to watch you video, and it sounds really nice. Nudity as normal, actually just relaxed like it should be.
Your points are great, i totally agree (at least until minute 5), but i must say it is stressful to me. Not you, not your voice or appearance, just the format.
I literally cannot take this "being talked at" format, i guess too many meetings at work?
So i am relieved that the nudism you talk about is the real thing, not creepy adults i read about but actually enbracing that our bodies are as they are, nothing more or less.
I feel sorry that i don't watch your video to completion, because i feel you are making good points, but i am just not able to.
Hope that's ok, i'm just more of a text or talk in person kinda guy.
@admitsWrongIfProven question is, can someone be a troll still even if they see themselves as a righteous defender of good?
The stigma against #onlyfans cracks me up, tbh. If people want to sell access to their bodies, who tf cares? (And you don't even need to sell--you can always make posts free)
My issues with OF are purely the huge cut they take from every sale (25%), and the ridiculously long and convoluted list of words they ban in posts (like any numerical value, "young," "kid," a lot more else). They're also not fans of linking outside of OF, either (like I've been banned for saying "here's a behind-the-scenes clip from my most recent video you can purchase for $3 if you want to help me sustain my content, if you'd like to see the full video it's from, you can go to xyz.com and see it for free"
Intellectual property theft, boost please
So, DeviantArt opted in, by default, all existing art on the website for use by third-party AI.
Without notifying their users. For all existing art.
You have to go through your art pieces one by one and tick a box that you do NOT consent to this.
I learnt about it on Birdsite, by accident.
And of course, any inactive user or dead user will have their art used by AI models from now on, even though they never agreed to this.
Disgusting.
So someone messaged me privately and asked how absolute this is.. like would we block an instance calling for genocide. I feel my response is import to reiterate here, so here it is:
Its not just about the authorities, it is about the people whose lives are at risk by that call to genocide having the right to see those posts and use that information to look out for their own safety... If someone is doxed, they should know, if someone is threatened, they should know, and they should be able to take action.
Someone saying violent things online doesnt guarantee some police officer will meander by and take them down. The law only tends to get involved once someone is reported, and sometimes not even then. No one will be reporting a site if no one can see or know it is there.
The question is, if someone is being physically threatened and having their life in jeopardy how are you helping them by blocking the privileges of the **victim** and disallowing the victim the right to see the threat placed against them?
In short, I refuse to take away rights from the victim simply because there is a violent bad actor out there. If the victim doesn't want to see it they simply need to import the block list and the problem is solved for them, so why not keep the power in the victims hands?
Just to give you an idea of how bad the whole "we block anyone who doesnt block who we block" has gotten, someone sent me this:

I would **love** to give M.A a script that goes over all the instances in the fediverse and alerts them of every instance that doesnt follow the exact same block list as them and spit it out. I'm sure they will realize they have to block 99% of the fediverse... its getting laughable at this point.
@freemo
Just got the rate limited message again, this time when scrolling through ~100 posts in the home feed.
Might not have anything to do with tooting after all.
I speak german and english.
Interested in:
- crude jokes
- philosophy
- how people get along
- different viewpoints
- gaming, especially strategy/arpgs
- (java) programming
If i reply but did not favourite your toot: most likely i forgot. I get caught up in talking, i forget.
I generally invite questions. If you look for a clue if it is ok to ask hard questions: this is it. As long as it is in good faith and you want to know wtf i was thinking, go ahead please.
