  • The distinction between anti-Semitism and anti-Israeli nationalism needs to be clarified more often.

    I respect Jewish people’s right to peacefully practice their religion. (Though I disagree with all organized religions for their seemingly intrinsic capacity for inflicting harm by providing a haven for opportunistic demagogues and predators). I do not respect the Israeli military and police blowing up and beating Palestinian children to death, or ordinary people who say that violence is neceasary because they want more land.

    There’s plenty of crazy people who think the other way, calling the religion unacceptable but embracing the nationalists who make human piñatas.


  • I used Reddit is Fun for about 7 years, I can’t imagine going back to the official app with its clunky format even on the most compact setting and its hundreds of trackers mining user data for who knows what. The browser version still a useful enough tool for news, but that only lasts as long as users keep posting. Once they migrate here or somewhere else, that’s the end for Spez’s moneymaking scheme. I heard the RIF developer’s working on an app for Tilde, but Connect for Lemmy has been a pretty good alternative so far.
