Ways of Seeing is a 1972 television series of (four) 30-minute films created chiefly by writer John Berger and producer Mike Dibb.

  • According to the journalist Sennen Andriamirado, who wrote two early books on Sankara, the Burkinabè leader believed that “Stalin killed Leninism by stifling the soviets and making all-powerful the Cheka [secret police], the military,” and other repressive bodies.

    Hmm, I wonder if protecting the socialist leadership was a factor in this. Too bad he got assassinated, proving that using state power to oppose the reactionary forces is critically important in a nascent socialist state.

  • Looks nice but definitely going to take some getting used to the new UI changes. Liking it for most part.

    Not able to successfully post an image so far, maybe something broke with iterations going on. They never show a thumbnail after upload and disappear from the post.

  • NJB on why driving in the Netherlands is better than driving anywhere else is such a good analysis. When you design your transportation infrastructure to reduce conflicts between different travel modes, all the modes benefit.

  • So pf is literally bad for the threadiverse at a technical level. It doesn't really matter if this came from malicious intent or just rushed vibe coding or anything else because the result is a threat to the entire activity pub federation model regardless.

    Definitely seems like defederation is warranted until there's a competent code audit and fixes.

  • I really appreciate that the picture of the biologist shows them in a posture that is frog-like.

  • Semiotics is the study of signs. It is an interdisciplinary field that examines what signs are, how they form sign systems, and how individuals use them to communicate meaning. Its main branches are syntactics, which addresses formal relations between signs; semantics, which addresses the relation between signs and their meanings; and pragmatics, which addresses the relation between signs and their users.

    I wonder if memes are collections of signs with meanings in relation to each other and their users. I'm sure that's NOT the case tho.

  • That sounds like a political opinion. OH NO!

  • So this isn't a shitpost? Mods should delete this then.

  • Donetsk and Luhansk oblasts : Western Ukraine's fascist settlers :: Gaza and West Bank : Israel's fascist settlers

    That's why Ukrainian nationalists (Banderites) burned down a Trade Union building in Odessa in 2014. Ukrainian nationalists supported by the US took power in a coup. There was then an anti-Russian ethnic cleansing campaign across Ukraine but most especially in the ethnic Russian regions for 8 years along the Eastern border.

    History does not start in 2022.

  • You can just admit to being wrong without trying to insult everyone that was correct.

  • The cat is CIA, DEA, DHS, CPB and US military personnel. They operate the most successful drug smuggling and distribution networks. This is why they oppose any legal change on prohibition.
