As a mod, what are the rules in regards to leftist/socialist communities and posts?

I’m a mod of !leftism, and the last resort preemptive defederation from hexbear has me concerned. As a mod, what are the specific rules that I need to know about to make sure our community fits the guidelines of LemmyWorld? We aren’t a huge community and there aren’t a huge number of posts every day, but I want to see this...

rockSlayer,

This is amazing, do the British museum next

rockSlayer,

I work in the games industry, and have extensive knowledge of NDAs that may or may not be attributed to unionization efforts. If you find a random disk somewhere and the contents are confidential, you are not subject to the NDA. They can ask, and even sue, for the property back but it’s not a guarantee that they’ll win. There are cases like this that have gone both ways.

The owner of the disk could have anonymously leaked the contents, sold the disk, or anything they wanted with it. It doesn’t matter because in general, if the disk was legally acquired then it’s their property to do with as they please. Leaking the contents is the only legally questionable thing that the owner could have done with the code.

rockSlayer,

Unfortunately yea, our legal system basically exists for the wealthy to exert control over the rest of the country. Not much can be done in that situation

rockSlayer,

To my fellow minnesotans, you can buy from a store called NativeCare in the Red Lake reservation north of Bemidji. Their website is here so you can check out what they have, though right now it’s just prerolled joints and flower

rockSlayer,

Solution: learn to make LSD, sell LSD for money, take LSD for fun

rockSlayer,

Good thing you’re doing regular maintenance, a gender leak would be devastating to the gender manifold

rockSlayer,

rockSlayer,

The reason it will impact security worldwide is that the UK is part of the “14 eyes” alliance, an alliance between the US, UK, Canada, Australia, New Zealand, Denmark, France, Netherlands, Norway, Belgium, Germany, Italy, Spain, and Sweden used to spy on citizens. This data from the 14 eyes is also shared with countries in strategic alliances, like NATO members not listed here, Israel, South Korea, Japan, etc.

Any encrypted data going to or through the UK will need to have this backdoor, exposing all encrypted traffic to this vulnerability while also sharing that data with foreign governments. Edward Snowden exposed that the US government was paying the UK government to spy on US citizens for the data. This is what will happen in the UK, but for people around the globe.

rockSlayer,

The 5 eyes still exist, they’re like the “inner circle” of eroding privacy. I think it’s no longer useful to just refer to the 5 eyes, because data about our personal life is shared with far more than even 14 governments

rockSlayer,

I’m aware, but most software utilizing E2EE are maintained by corporations. If those companies want to operate in the UK, they will need to implement a back door, most companies utilize encrypted traffic to and from their server rather than E2E, and most people don’t know someone outside of the UK able to create a vpn tunnel that isn’t operated by a company. I’m willing to bet that the UK is also prepared to leverage lawsuits and warrants against individuals that write encryption algorithms without a back door, regardless of what country they live in. I’m willing to bet github and gitlab also don’t want to take the risk in hosting encryption algorithms that don’t comply.

rockSlayer,

End To End Encryption (E2EE) is a very precise term meaning that something gets encrypted on your device and doesn’t (usually can’t) get decrypted by anything other than the destination. I don’t know what they call it, but if Whatsapp calls it E2E then it’s a misnomer. They encrypt to and from their central server, which is not E2EE.

rockSlayer,

I generally agree, Apple has threatened to remove some apps from the UK market over this, so it’s not like this will be accepted lying down. But the reality still exists that most things like VPN tunnels are operated by companies, so they can’t legally operate in the UK without the backdoor. Overall, this will primarily hurt UK citizens, but this law threatens to impact everyone on Earth

rockSlayer,

Don’t worry, the historic buildings were destroyed years ago to meet minimum parking requirements

rockSlayer,

In the immortal words of the newsdude, “Jail every president, even the dead ones.”

rockSlayer,

I was following along until the bussin loop. What is it trying to yeet?

rockSlayer,

Xcom mixed with game of thrones? Fuck yea I’d play that

rockSlayer,

I posted the longcat copypasta a couple weeks ago, because I wanted to talk about longcat

rockSlayer,

Believe it or not, this used to actually work for SEO manipulation before Google got wise

rockSlayer,

You ain’t done nothing if you ain’t been called a red

If you’ve marched or agitated then you’re bound to hear it said

So you might as well ignore it, or love the word instead

Cause you ain’t been doing nothing if you ain’t been called a red

rockSlayer,

I didn’t believe you at first, but it seems to check out! That’s awesome!

rockSlayer,

The civil war in the US was about slavery. A lot of people (mostly conservatives) argue that it wasn’t actually about slavery, but instead a vague notion towards the relative autonomy between states and the federal government, also called “states rights”. The idea behind this meme is pressuring a straw man conservative into answering “what state rights” with the implied answer being “to allow the ownership of humans”.

rockSlayer,

You can just see it in his eyes, head empty no thoughts

rockSlayer,

This is a normal part of bargaining, tentative agreements are regularly rejected. When the contract lapses, then they’re likely to vote on striking

rockSlayer,

At least the Cyclops has an accurate crush depth

Fun fact, you can put anything on your resume if you lie

rockSlayer,

The spitters had it coming, the factory must grow

rockSlayer,

Honestly I’m just glad to hear people recognizing that Anheuser-Busch isn’t a trans icon or even queer friendly.

rockSlayer,

Ah, but you continued the cycle of stealing the stolen to talk about stealing

rockSlayer,

It doesn’t matter when the effect prevents basically everyone from getting an abortion.

rockSlayer,

A lot of people here are giving various answers, and that’s for 2 reasons. You asked a very loaded question in a lemmy instance that started with an explicitly socialist bend, and you’re essentially asking people about very personal reasons they hold a political belief.

Everyone’s political beliefs are shaped by the conditions of their life. For example, I grew up poor on a rural farm in the Midwest of the US. Over time due to various things, I had several life situations impact my views on politics and the world. I started to learn things, things that didn’t make sense, things that challenged my world view, things that I knew were wrong but didn’t know why they happened. Eventually, I rejected liberalism and needed to find something else. That something else came in the form of a walkout at my workplace. I was thrust into the labor movement. Now I’m an anarcho-syndicalist (I believe all hierarchy is bad including capitalism and governments, and the people should govern themselves through unions and other forms of organizing).

This is a very, very brief description of my life from when I was born to literally right now, and how it impacted my beliefs. This process of life impacting personal political beliefs is called our “material conditions”. People may have similar material conditions and completely disagree, or drastically different material conditions and agree on everything. More and more Americans are seeing and feeling the dramatic impacts of capitalism and the power of a few people on the top. That is driving people both to the anticapitalist left and to the fascist alt-right. Whatever reasons you read here, know that they’re justifications for their material conditions causing them to take a radical position.

rockSlayer,

Not even necessarily billionaires. Spez is one of those weirdos that thinks they can buy loyalty in the apocalypse

rockSlayer,

No, he’s worth about $10 million

rockSlayer,

Nondeterministic turing machines are the same kind of impossible theoretical automaton as an NFA. They can theoretically solve NP problems.

rockSlayer,

They exist in the same grammatical hierarchy so theoretically they can solve the same problems. What I should have said was that nondeterministic turing machines can solve NP problems in P

Jesus, it must be Christmas! Yugopnik uploaded yesterday, First Thought will be uploading at noon, Second Thought uploaded last Friday, Hakim today, and the Deprogram this Friday

rockSlayer,

My personal favorite is “don’t listen to those union organizers, a union is a third party. Don’t think about how you are the union”

rockSlayer,

Woah now, let’s not get too crazy with our solutions /s

rockSlayer,

Wait, if cops in the US, France, and Germany are bastards, does that mean All Cops Are Bastards?

rockSlayer,

Such a majestic floof

rockSlayer,

Actually no lol no one I know uses Instagram

rockSlayer,

Defiance is the only option when it comes to these authoritarian rulings. I hope Greg and the others know this.

rockSlayer,

It’s because the Australian government is sliding into fossil fascism. They watched a quarter of their island burn and said “not enough”.
