  • Trump’s spell has been broken | The US president is hurting rather than helping his ideological allies such as Nigel Farage

  • There are always consequences, some more productive that others. Note that I am not claiming that progressive politics are authoritarian, only that there are authoritarian tendencies on the far left end of the progressive spectrum. I would probably class myself as progressive. Green/Labour left is probably closer.

    Where one might say 'overly zealous' another might say 'authoritarian.'

  • Yeah, quite different. The Civ style hex based grid took a bit of getting used to.

  • There is a tendency amongst those on the political extremes to:

    Silence opposing voices; Push for, and sometimes implement the policing and criminalization of certain speech; Root out 'enemies' through witch-hunts and humiliation rituals or 'struggle sessions'; Enforce a conformity of ideas and opinions through the threat of ostracization, humiliation or violence. Instill a culture of fear around speech or activities contrary to the 'party line.' Amongst other things.

  • That's the problem with 'deplatforming.'

    The crazies migrate to another platform and then that platform gets bigger and crazier and perhaps eventually competes with the original, more mainstream platforms.

  • Alberta premier faces backlash for asking America to pause tariffs until after election

    Jump

  • On one hand; not a bad strategy if your aim is simply to have tariffs dropped, even for a short time. Appeal to Trump's narcissism by promising him a Canadian leader aligned with him.

    On the other hand; wtf?

  • "Could."

    It sure looks like Americans do want rich people with political influence considering they just voted for a billionaire promising a cabinet of billionaires.

  • It's super fucked up, is what it is. What is going through the heads of these people? Lead in the eyeliner?

  • It's weird, because there's inarguably been a 'vibe shift' away from the more authoritarian side of progressive ideas and politics, and for a while it seemed the backlash was unstoppable and far-right. I hope we are starting to see a 'vibe shift' away from the extremes of the right, too. It can't be healthy for a society to swing from one extreme to the other. I suppose social media, and the difficulty with communicating nuance on such platforms is partly, maybe wholly, to blame.

  • Ah. I follow now. Sorry I didn't realise you had linked to google translate in the post.

  • Try DeepL. It's the superior translation app, as far as I'm concerned. Based in the EU, I believe.

  • The nature and scenery in the US is honestly stunning, and you're lucky to have the NPS to make all of it so accessible.

    In saying that though; there is natural beauty everywhere you look in the world and it's very easy, and often cheaper to go elsewhere.
