As #Musk dabbles in the politics of free speech, I’m reminded about this basic human truth: software products are not human beings. Algorithms can’t fix hate. Humans do.

Fascism and control comes from people being paid by state ? 

Fascism and control comes from people being paid by state and control comes from people following state ? (Even if it's a lesser kind today?)

This is a remark to ask yourself if true or anything majorly wrong.

(Basically fascism/auth/totalitarianism/capitalistic stuff gets replicated from those paying others to do their bidding under soft or hard ultimatums ("for my family" / "for food" or because "it's the law/illegal otherwise/penalised heavily ) , so if you agree they care about authority/control/mostly etc just numbers/seeing people as their property or lower subjects / captured etc... then that's very similar / as good as fascism as main branch with other things mixed in)

Fascism and control comes from state and people who are paid by state to enforce or apply it even in education, sub-companies etc - just diluted but structurally still there to make profit for and follow state guidelines/rules

(So in one form or another tight control, paid for... else it would not be allowed by system/statesmen/top levels and their own pyramid of gate control/passport-control type checkers like a 'quality control' for humanity)

What do you think... is it quite true as a common component to fascism/hierarchical authoritarianism that all is planned and paid for whether it's police or teachers (professionsls) at the end ?

So people paid by the state like police people are in some forms paid to do the states bidding - maybe even have a quota or 'incentive' plan (like all jobs to basically penalise via your salary pay at the end if you didn't follow orders or achieve what they laid out).
The states apathetic point of view(s) and much that is missing from morality and sharing our seems to keep the shape but perhaps even worse it's indirect / less obvious... so you see a school or hospital but hurrendous siphoning or money and waste to fat cats while people are happy for front shops with less care about banking and bankers.

And similar to not funding things- things just die unsupported or indeed doesn't even exist like fascism wants... it's even more unseen in modern terms but still fascistic / systematic perfectionism and hurts things by not growing it or killing it off without it even being born by not funding it in the first place.

Computers perhaps don't cheat us

But the people behind it and it's speed can deceive us. SPOILER ALERT!

Fascism and control comes from state and it's people who paid by state to enforce or apply it even in education etc

(So in one form or another tight control, paid for... else it would be allowed by system/statesmen/top levels)

So people paid by the state like police people are in some forms paid to do the states bidding and wants for it's apathetic point of view(s)... and just the others seem lesser so but still form the shape perhaps even worse as it's indirect / less obvious... similar to not funding things- it's unseen but still fascistic / systematic perfectionism and hurts things by not growing it or killing it off but not funding it in the first place.

Money forces a certain perspective and this is like a wedge between people which we need to minimise and snap out of to see more of an overview or meta perspective of the system and transition slowly (with a bit of money) to something with less man-in-the-middle attacks / less over-taxing / less greed and banks... literally!

(they are towards profit or causing6 loss (profit for soneone else) and everyone can't profit.... and they don't want to share even if they had the money...

anyway it's not a moral tool since banks dont care abiut people or morals or ethics only and mostly are about finding a body /host for lending people more debt eventually for wars that they fund / loan the states etc etc )

phrase: "Cut off the nose to spite the face"

It takes skill basically to balance things and feelings 《--- a needed evolution else it is war (diluted or direct)

I believe people have different ability so therefore as long as in good faith (not taking the puss) then different people can do different things in various longevity or strength (like different animals and different personality)

Important is to see the personality also as most systems see you as body only/mostly and try to fit you into a matrix of repetition when different people like it differently... but hey try telling a machine with rigid design to customise itself to the human using it! It can't unless the managers of machines relax and don't expect people to keep up with the machine!

Reflection about Humanity
(My Experience)

Nobody* likes to see another person get a free lunch (even if there isn't much to do in life or free food around)

* maybe I'm wrong and you wouldn't mind working to do what you love to do already while someone else eats for free / just lives

Fascism and control comes a lot from people paid by state

(What do you think / is it quite true as a common component to fascism/hierarchical authoritarianism?)

So people paid by the state like police people are in some forms paid to do the states bidding and wants for it's apathetic point of view(s)... and even those employed in a "company" to similar degree perhaps less obvious or directly are still also regulated and enabeled by state... ultimately "allowed" to do things for it else it's phased out of design or hit over the head

think of the companies you have worked for as perhaps a mini-state or extention of state almost exactly

Systems without soul(s) suck

Any system without people in mind actively is a bad system

(true / false for you?)

(In the sense to not only respect individuality and not ignore it but to integrate and help interact with it to even change/allow things more and more. To grow with people)

TWITTER NEWS 2021 - CEO CHANGE

JACK DORSEY (meanwhile to PARAG AGRAWAL CTO (maybe to ELON MUSK in 202X?)

Jack Dorsey Leaving Twitter to Work Full Time on Bitcoin

And some good commentary about at least working towards freedom (not helping censorship)... like YouTube also

Shows tweets shown from
-Nic Carter and Glenn Greenwald (Edward Snowden leaks),

Mentions then-President Trump being booted off Twitter! Not the president surely!

Generally good comments from this episode, really if you don't like Bitcoin makes sense as it largely doesn't need you to like Bitcoin, just see the Banks etc as not making sense and Bad!

MASTODON SUGGESTION
- JUMP TO 1ST MESSAGE BUTTON OR LINK?

(OR SOMETHING BETTER THAN NOTHING!)

Ah I did enjoy the ?min_id=0

but more than that seems we are missing features like pagination or numbered pages... or something to go to beginning of people's posts.... :(

which this change only highlights (click post, but in general the URL haD parameters that allowed jumping to first post on any profile!)...

URL parameters are cool (probably have downsides but not sure compared to how many happy users... now wondering if there is something that can relpace it.... ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ?

Update: Now even user profile pages on #Mastodon don't display the old version. That means using ?min_id=1 doesn't work anymore. You are now limited to specialized Mastodon clients to collect older posts, or you can view my post below where I collected some of those posts:

mstdn.starnix.network/@james/1

With this change, any URL that started with /web/ after the domain has now removed the /web/ prefix. Settings and other options have still remained the same.

Now, user profile pages and posts are using their original URLs when logged out. However, remote follows and replies suggest copying the URL into the search bar of your instance, instead of a popout to enter your instance.

P.S. If you view a remote post or profile on an instance, refreshing (or sharing the link) will redirect to the other instance's post, as used in these examples below:
mastodon.social/@james@mstdn.s
mastodon.social/@james@mstdn.s
