  1. A quotation from Orwell

    A nationalist is one who thinks solely, or mainly, in terms of competitive prestige. He may be a positive or a negative nationalist — that is, he may use his mental energy either in boosting or in denigrating — but at any rate his thoughts always turn on victories, defeats, triumphs and humiliations. He sees history, especially contemporary history, as the endless rise and decline of great power units, and every event that happens seems to him a demonstration that his own side is on the upgrade and some hated rival is on the downgrade.

    George Orwell (1903-1950) English journalist, essayist, writer [pseud. of Eric Arthur Blair]
    Essay (1945-05), “Notes on Nationalism,” Polemic Magazine (1945-10)

  7. Octobre 2019, 10.000 #factieux de #alliancepolice prennent la France en otage.
    Ils manifestent à Paris, menaçant la #Macronnie d'une grêve si ils n'obtiennent pas la réintégration des #milichiens de leur #faction exclus pour violences ; ils l'obtiendront.

    Ce jour là, on a pu les voir rigoler en voyant leurs affidés se moquer des #giletsjaunes éborgnés en se mettant la main devant l’œil.

    On oublie pas !

  9. Could one #instance or #cartel or #faction of ideologically-affiliated of instances, with a plurality of users, disrupt the #fediverse?

  10. @sylviawrites Journaling is fantastic if you are willing to face yourself and even enjoying it!

    The person / character I have in mind doesn't seem to be into journaling and effective self-reflection is quite off topic or could be part of the hyperthinking.

    Might not even realize the precarious state of mind he/she/it/they is/are in.

    what happens inside a character who sinks a newly won empire because reality doesn't bend to the characters wrong believe?
    What will he do when he realizes he's not up to the game he started?
