I’m annoyed by the notion that our bodies somehow need animal protein to build muscles. What we need is a specific mix of amino acids. Animal proteins generally provide a similar mix, but that just means that eating meat is the easy route. It is definitely possible to mix plant proteins to provide our bodies with everything they need (at least in terms of proteins).
And honestly, I’m just tired of animal suffering, man.
“Die Weihnachtsgans Auguste” by Günter Rätz. I guess one can understand most of it without speaking German.
I am not defending US imperialism, just criticizing a double standard.
Imperialism is a state seeking to maintain and/or extend power over other states. That is exactly what China is doing with Taiwan. Of course, unequal exchange is also a form of imperialism.
Imperialism is when you have a civil war.
That’s just wrong. What is true though is that civil wars more often than not are influenced by foreign powers trying to influence them to their own benefit.
Imperialism is cool as long as the people doing the imperialism call themselves socialists or communists 🙂↕️
Considering how often I see nsfw or nsfl stuff because it wasn’t tagged… no I don’t think so, at least there doesn’t seem to be anything widely adopted on Lemmy.
For images at least it should be possible to create a bot that downloads any uploaded image, runs it through an API like Sightengine, and then automatically removes posts or bans users. Each instance would then of course decide whether to set up such a bot, so there is not going to be any fediverse-wide automod.
It’s not like I hate other operating systems, I just really like the idea of FOSS and try to use it whenever possible.
I think there is probably a difference here between small companies where there is one owner that knows all their employees and corparations with thousands of employees and anonymous shareholders.
