Divide and conquer is so terribly effective.

Edit: is it just that they are a German company?

Yes, they are.

Often times there’s just no reason to package a web app into an app container.

Why don’t you read the article?

I don’t think the problem with structures like the church is that it’s always an asshole that makes it to the top. It’s that there’s always a risk that one will make it.

I agree with your criticism about the Catholic Church (I wouldn’t call this the biggest problem though), but from what I’ve read, the current Pope is more of an asset than a liability on this topic.

Who cares what representatives of neoliberal governments and fossil fuel companies have to say about this? The Pope is not the biggest problem at the COP.

Advertising should be banned.

Do you think it’s not going to help them?

“I think the imminent danger is an attempt by the right to say – and Sunak is a case in point – ‘we cannot afford climate policy because it’s too costly, especially for people who don’t have a lot to spend’,” said Timmermans.

“It’s quite astonishing to see people who generally have not shown a lot of consideration for people with low incomes to all of a sudden become the champions of people with low incomes, fighting climate policy,” he added.

“They are doing it for clear economic interests. The threat to progressives, to the left, is that this contradiction between social justice and climate justice is exploited by the right and is divisive for the left.”

Divide and conquer, it works so well unfortunately. And the right shamelessly exploit it.

Yeah they should all do something useful with their lives, like making comments on the internet. That’ll save the world!

You’re missing that the climate crisis is not a problem that can be solved by consumers, that’s what BP wants to make you believe by introducing the carbon footprint. Those companies are actively working to hold on to the status quo because they have lots of money flowing their way until things change.

The message behind this is not to stop buying from those companies, it’s that they are knowingly destroying our future and that we have a right to defend ourselves and this future.

They pledge to defederate from Meta, I’d go one step further and defederate from any instance that federates with Meta.

I think there should be an alliance of instances that defederate from any instance that federates with Meta.

A bit pessimistic though.
