My 2ct: Wenn #Palantir CEO Alex #Karp fabuliert
➡️ „Silicon Valley ist vom Weg abgekommen“
dann muss man das als Re-Framing & Manipulation des Demokratie-Begriffs verstehen:
Die #USA haben sich nach dem 2. Weltkrieg immer als globalen Hegemon gesehen und "Freiheit" stets als "Ihre Freiheit"!
Im unipolaren Moment 1991 - 2017 wurde das pathologisch und im Valley wird nun aus "#neoliberal #feudal" eben "#autokratisch #faschistisch".

people like him are saying the same thing of the US government.; and they are making progress at destroying the democracy. most from folks who own corporation that are bigger (more money and lawyers) than countries and themselves too good to be regulated by a common people's #democratic government.
The #conservative people around the world all have the same goal. bring back the age of the #aristocracy and #feudal system of government. see 1390's for reference.

#Authoritarians understand the disruptive importance of social platforms, which is why the #Trump administration pushes back on EU regulation. We have to stand up for our values and our way of life as the big tech bros just want to push autoritarianism - it makes them and their cronies rich and the rest poor. If you wonder what such a #feudal #kleptocracy looks like, modern day Russia, Hungary or the ancient Versailles regime under the sun king are great examples.

Anyone here knowing their stuff about #Haiku ?
I am looking for historical but funny/weird Haiku.
None of the 21st century something about resisting chocolate or cat on a keyboard stuff.I want to have a collection of Haiku where people already hundreds of years ago distilled the pain of life in a funny Haiku, from #feudal #Japan 🤗

Nowadays people have mutual trust issues… for trust we have to communicate and negotiate… physically. Yet, we’re putting devices and rulings between us to avoid just that. So, the next step is a hierarchical #feudal solution. Enter stage right is the so called #AGI… for we don’t really accept being told by others what to do (remember no trust?). It doesn’t matter whether #AI will be actually intelligent or not, we just need to believe in the system. Supported by the magic of not knowing. 🧠🔨🥶

so if you believe that #tRump is not a #russianAsset, please described what he would be doing differently if he was a russian asset.

#democracy is more than voting! -
one of the goals of #tRumpism is to prevent individuals from suing #bigcorp. but in their fight to establish their #feudal governments they are suing.
"...[t]hese crypto coiners have found themselves at the centre of political intrigue and have had to resort to suing Honduras through the investor-state dispute settlement, a little-known but central component of global capitalism’s neoliberal bureaucracy. "...

Every day, I’m sounding more and more like a #conspiracy nut, but I think it’s pretty clear that #Trump and #Vance and who knows who else, are controlled by #Russia. I have no doubts, by next week, the US will send money and equipment to Russia. In a month, Trump will send troops to back Russia to fight the #Ukraine. Back in the #US, they are doing as much damage as they can, on purpose, so they can sweep the current system away, and make a new, #feudal #dictatorship run by #musk and his #billionaire buddies.

@onikaze @mattblaze
That implies that they intend to run the democratic government that we hired them for and are doing it poorly.They are showing no signs of such intent.
Every action that they have taken points towards a desire to have a #feudal system.
People that are hungry, sick, uneducated, scared, confused and broke are easier to rule.

It's true, sometimes the only feudal/fantasy giant robot ideas in people's head are Visions of Escaflowne. But there's a whole lot more in the genre than that (even leaving aside BattleTech).

@commonscapitalism @sule_becalm Ok guys, you know that capitalism does not equal democracy and that we had different economic models in existence in the 20th century? How workers cooperatives work in #USA is jot the only model in the entire world. With the existence of #billionaires we already live in some kind of a #feudal system.
-
@proscience
by framing the fascist rise as country vs country is missing the bigger picture.It's really #bigCorps vs the people; a return to a #feudal system of government.
The future USA gov and the present Russian gov can be viewed as the military arm of the bigCorps.We have a front row seat the the return of the #aristocracy and the death of #democracy.
Its how to take down a country, part 2. The #oligarch take over while we all focus on the head puppet.

Liberalism – is not for you
The Myth of the Middle Class: The so-called "middle class" is a constructed concept that never truly existed. If you work for a boss and earn wages or a salary, you are a worker, a member of the working class, and should take pride in that identity. The term "middle class" was created to isolate more privileged workers, serving the interests of the powerful by dividing the working population. This division prevents unity among workers and keeps them from collectively challenging the […]https://hamishcampbell.com/liberalism-serves-the-ruling-capitalist-class/

@mnot
#georgeOrwell, 1984, would be so proud. All he got wrong was the date.#progressive, #woke, #pagan religion are all good terms for good things. #Regressive is what the likes of Palantir are doing; regressing to the 1300's, rule by a #feudal system of government.
It is amazing how they can use word salad to completely turn around the sounds of forward progress. Their creative fiction writing professor would be proud.

@malwaretech
I'm encouraged because even thou we have challenges ahead, at least with the fediverse we have the will, skills and the tools to fix it.The #fediverse system provides a way forward unlike twitter or meta or any other closed #feudal system.
The challenge before us is to use the tools to save ourselves.

"I wonder what happened to turn John’s [#Gruber] attitude…
The #EU… does not allow big companies to “own” markets because #freemarkets (in the EU’s eyes) are good, and privately owned ones that allow big companies to stop being capitalists and act like #feudal lords are bad. Facebook, Apple, and the rest have been doing this in digital for a long time, and the EU has decided it’s going to stop."

Did you know that there's a place in #Europe that still has a #feudal system?
The #crown dependency of #Sark is a curious place. It has no paved #roads & #cars are forbidden, #women only got the right to inherit #property in 1999, & the whole island is, to this day, a fiefdom.
This means the #monarch is the head, with a #lord (seigneur here) as the executive power & the tenants (effectively liegemen) as the vassals.
Sark has to pay the #king a yearly #knight's fee.
It's £1,79. -

Well I think rather #notMyKing is a permanent part of that portion of the British establishment that achieves elite status for reasons unrelated to any sort of merit - a long term sickness as distinct from the short term near-fatal fever that is the current bout of #toriesOut #rightWingPopulism
In essence we retain #feudal fealty that sits oddly with democracy - and the huge cost of the Windsors is totally unjustifiable
-
...and the #GreatDepression.
Listening to #MatthewCooke's American Origin Stories finally convinced me that all #US institutions were set up chiefly to protect the "landed gentry." #Billionaires are the new #aristocracy, and they are not benign. In a #feudal society, #fealty was rewarded by the feudal lord. Today, everyone is just a disposable "input factor."
We live in a virtually global #plutocracy.
This must be remedied.

takahē - A new Fediverse paradigm
Fresh out of the oven is #Takahē, introducing a very interesting basic functional motive for development and delivering a beautiful #UX. It also derives inspiration in the form of its #mascott from a species once thought extinct for about a century.
That is, until a single man obsessed with the saga of this large, flightness bird since his early childhood, endlessly sought out and eventually rediscovered it was actually extant 75 years ago through his tireless efforts.
In recent years, and not without some particularly problematic attempts in the management of this #endangered species, the population of these magnificent birds has more or less stabilized at around 100 members living in the wild, thanks to the committed efforts of a government sponsored #refoliation, hatching, and rearing program; in conjunction with a comprehensive scientific tagging, tracking, and monitoring effort of those members released into the wild alongside the wild-born members of the #population.
The software project itself has struck me as rather special too, and not just for its two functionally unique characteristics amongst other #Fediverse platforms - first, and similar to name based #SSL hosting on #HTTP servers with #SNI, Takahē provides multi-domain virtual hosting capabilities to #ActivityPub - **this is huge**, and opens the door for for even the casusl home self-hoster to provide #turnkey #SaaS offerings to their friends and family members in the form of small and #single user "virtual Fediverse server instances", in consumer based home #LAN environments - let alone the potential for commercial hosting endeavors.
To my knowledge, ***this is the very first time* this novel approach to Fediverse networking over ActivityPub has been broached**.
jointakahe.org/
***If you hurry***, you might still be able to secure for yourself an account in their limited beta program.
Go ahead, you can do that now, I'll still be here when you get back 😎
And as if that alone were not enough to revolutionize the paradigm and dynamic of the Fediverse, **Takahē also introduces multiple account (alt) identities for each user user account on the server**. This can only be described as freaking groundbreaking!
A single user account for a person might be the base for say, both @[email protected] *AND* @userone@SLD02 .TLD02 *AND* @usertwo@SLD02 .TLD02 - that, at least to me, can only be described as, **"The Bees Knees"**.
I'm sure that many will cite, and of course it is not only possible but quite likely, that this will lower the bar for abusive actors to engage in shenanigans. However true as that may be, such potential (and existing practice) exists already within the Fediverse so the ease with which bad actors will avail themselves of such toolings only is only trivially simplified, not introduced; besides, complaining about such a thing is irrelevant - *the cat is already out of the bag*.
Indeed, there are already other Fediverse server platforms (such as the Hubzilla (ZOT) and Misskey families of forks and variants that already support the creation and management of multiple identities under a single account anyway - but Bringing the SNI shared hosting experience into production with a single Fediverse server instance is truly unprecedented in Fediverse space.
There's a lot more. **Did I mention the beautiful, and exceedingly intuitive UI?** Of course I did!
There's another corollary that I alluded to. Did you miss it? It was right there, *before your eyes*.
Yes, there's a metaphor, craftily scripted between the lines of everything you just read (that is, if you didn't tl;dr).
The impetus for much of #decentralization (DeSoc) and the #Genesis of the Fediverse is arguably the notion of what was indeed a #decentralized #World Wide Web over the fully decentralized #Internet, having falling victim to capture by special interests - the #deprecated, #proprietary, #privacy disrespecting and #legacy #monolithic silos - owned, spawned, and managed by mega surveillance-capitalism #data mining corporations.... IOW, the so-called, **Sunnyvale Syndrome**.
This effectively killed of much of the notion that there even still existed an independant, #distributed network of services and sites truly belonging to the #individual participants, i.e., average #schmoes like you and me.
For sometime now, many have even claimed and argued that the kinder, friendlier #web of days gone by, where small #communities of #people and #websites belonging to #individuals and small businesses were actually #extinct in reality - with only those well heeled analytically correct, SEO optimized, #subjugated websites and #chattel in the form of people that had sworn #fealty to their lords and masters remaining. #Apple, #Amazon, the #Google and #Faceplant having long since taken #possession of their souls and #identities.
It's dark, so *incredibly dark*. And you have awakened to find yourself at the bottom of a well that you *apparently* have fallen into. There's plenty of water, you're knee deep in it, and a voice from above booms aloud that food will be delivered so long as, ***"It puts the lotion on its skin!"***
And in a manner of speaking, following an *"Internet century"* (think, 'dog years') of a #dystopian #feudal Institution where _Homo sapien_ drones existing in #Lords and Vassals lockstep, told what to think, how to believe, where to shit, and when to wake up and punch the time clock, had completely replaced the actually extinct human race...
