@admitsWrongIfProven I couldnt read the german of the person who messaged (and need to install google translat or something).. But yea i dont want to go **looking** for child porn especially if i need to follow people... I also dont want to block an instance on suspicion without some level of confirmation
@admitsWrongIfProven It would prevent content from showing in your federated feed yes.. only way youd see content from there is if you follow someone who boosts it (boosts dont show in federated feed I dont think)... if you want to be safe you may wish to block the instance on your account level.. I am a bit concerned though to just leave them open on any level if they have child porn.
@admitsWrongIfProven They have auth-fetch setup... So I cant see their timeline, and someone would have to follow them and report it for me to see it and be able to act on it.
I dont really have the desire to start following them. Their rules do explicitly state that csam is not allowed, but they could just be bullshitting... sadly i cant see their timeline to confirm.
@admitsWrongIfProven sure thing, ill take a look.. as you know I dont control that server.. soif it turns out to be csam my only choice will be to block the server (and I will) after giving the moderator a chance to respond and act
@admitsWrongIfProven I have in fact done some menthol chemistry :)
@admitsWrongIfProven Water, its like an explosion in your mouth!
So I managed to add #ActivityPub to a static website I just put together. I will be modifying it so I use the same code on my personal blog too.
Basically it supports followers, and when a new page is added (like a news entry, or a new project) then if your following the website it will show as a status in your feed.
Even cooler, if you comment or like the status from here you will see that comment and status on the website. Yes I can block people if they abuse this, as well as servers.
Check it out by following @flear which represents https://flear.org
Its a very early beta, so the look of the site will still be heavily modified and I will add some more #AP support soon. But this covers all the basics needs.
Sorry I was busy..
So yes, but that wasnt what we were discussing.. We both agree there are whtie and non-white genocides... we also both agree there were white and non-white annexes. What we were discussing is examples of genocide used along with anexing to create the modern day country.
With the china and the Dzungar people, for example, the Dzungar historic territory does not lie within modern day china (it is to the north west). So it wouldnt be an example.
The russian example would be a good one, even if it only makes up a small part of russia, that one definitely counts.
@madbarrister damnit now I want some mcdonalds!
Sure is, which is why I argued for comparison based on actual acts of apartheid rather than simply annexing land.
If you know of any non-judeo-christian countries which murdered 99% of the people of a land before annexing it to put its own people on the land, then please, share, I'd love to increase my knowledge... I cant think of one off hand myself.
That said after more consideration there is one huge difference... genocide/apartheid... China and russia took over regions, but didnt exeterminate 99% of the people and then moved in... They moved in, they stole resources, so its worth being upset over... but extermination to take the land is definately one level above what china and russia does... not that they are **that** much better.
@emmreef Yup, it is absolutely an incomplete list and more countries should be added to it. China is a good one, so is russia.
@emmreef I am no lover of the extreme left.. but they certainly do have a point, these are all examples of nations who stole their land from existing indigenous peoples. While I wouldnt go so far as saying the solution is to abolish the countries there is a very valid point in there.
@gabrielesvelto If that is all the evidence they have I would dismiss it outright... sadly most people arent so critical. As with most things the people who find it agrees with their assumptions they will sell it as fact. and vice versa... here we go again.
We will keep @flear@flear.org strictly to major posts and have it linked to the website at https://flear.org
Meanwhile this account will mostly focus on non-professional microblogging posts and statuses. I wil reboost posts from the main account here as well.
The posts from here will appear on the main side in the side bar.
I get giddy every time I see my static website generated blog announce a new blog post to the fediverse... Cant wait to port it to my main website soon too :)
@lowqualityfacts Thats just silly, everyone knows the worker bees would suffocate and kill a corgi long before it had a chance to reach the queen!
