  • Thinking of Jewish people as "other" and "separate" is a precondition to discrimination.

    Jewish identity has been formed because of the discimitation and segregation they have been subjected to. Their aspirations to have their own safe environment is a reaction to that. Antisemitism predates Zionism.

  • sim, infelizmente. acho motivo suficiente para evitar a Meta. só que os EUA não è Israel. È uma grande acusação dizer que eles estão passando esses dados para o IDF. Não digo que é impossivel, mas até agora não tem provas firmes para isso.

  • Oof
  • Also, wouldn't it be better if people could live wherever they want and still get self-determination?

    Well, obviously. And neither Europeans nor Arabs granted this to the jewish. Which made Zionism necessary.

  • Oof
  • I have no idea what you're trying to get at. I am talking about the jewish as a people, not as a religion. So you don't just 'convert'. Jewish is an identity that goes beyond religion.

  • Oof
  • yes, you're getting it! America is indigenous Land. Europeans stole it.

    Reality is a bit more complex obviously, but yes, indigenous people have the same right to self determination as the jewsh do.

  • Oof
  • "The idea that the jewish people deserve self determination after suffering from millenia of discrimiation and going through the most industrious genocide in history feels anti-semitic to me."

    yeah, an absolutely wild take. You're not helping Palestinians by denying the jewish people's right for self-determination.

  • After a vegan blue cheese won the Good Food Award, panicked dairy cheese makers forced the foundation to disqualify it
  • no, they just foribly impregnate cows every single year of their life, take away their calves the second they are born to take the milk from their overloaded udders until they collapse or stop being comercially viable. Then they are killed. Just like their male children a few weeks after being born.

    The milk industry is arguably more cruel than the meat industry. We should reject both

  • do outro thread no privacy@lemmy.ml:

    They really don’t provide enough to back up the insane claims they’re making. I would take all this with a massive grain of salt as it’s most likely bullshit wartime propaganda designed to stir people up.

    O artigo é mais especulação e não fornece provas. O whatsapp tem muito dados sobre os usuários, mas é pouco provável que eles compartilham esses dados com outro governo. No Caso, Meta não teria absolutamente nada a ganhar com isso.

Aber ich weiß tatsächlich nicht wie die Leute da von Bluesky denken. Deren Ansatz ist ja auch dezentral, nur haben sie ein anderes Protokoll, was nicht ohne weiteres mit dem Activitypub funktioniert.

    Against Masculinity - Young men do not need a vision of “positive masculinity.” They need what everyone else needs: to be a good person who has a satisfying, meaningful life.
  • So why do men look for guidance on how to be masculine? Why is it even appealing to be masculine? I believe it has little to do with the characteristics themselves (which keep changing and are hard to specify), I believe boys and young men aspire to be masculine because of the benefits you receive when you conform to these ideals. The more masculine you are, the more respect society pays you, you'll have more authority, people will find you more sexually attractive. All of these things are universally desirable, so young men will certainly want all of these things. So any kind of 'guidance' on masculinity, even if it is positive and affirmative, isn't a means for people to find out who they are, and instead it maintains a system in which men (also women, if we speak more broadly about patriarchy) are made to conform to gender norms.

    lemmy.ml moderiert fürchterlich - wie und wo klärt man sowas?

    Ich bin mir nicht ganz sicher, wo genau ich am besten diese Diskussion anrege - deswegen frage ich erst einmal hier. Ich bin etwas entsetzt darüber, wie in /c/worldnews@lemmy.ml modieriert wird. Große Teile der Instanz ist meiner Meinung nach wie lemmygrad oder hexbear auf Tankie-Territorium, sodass ich das schon äußerst grenzwertig finde.

    Ich frage mich, wie genau so etwas Konsequenzen haben kann. Feddit hat ja sowohl lemmygrad als auch Hexbear geblockt, nur ist Lemmy.ml um einiges größer und in vielen Teilen auch nicht problematisch. Würde man diese Instanz also blocken, würden da User*innen keinen Zugang mehr zu vielen Inhalten haben.

    Ich frage mich jetzt ganz algemein, wie klärt man sowas im Fediverse, besonders im Bezug auf größere Instanzen? Also würden beispielsweise die Admins auf Feddit die Moderation auf Lemmy.ml problematisch finden, welche Möglichkeiten hätten sie in dem Fall "Druck" auf die Admins dort aufzubauen, ohne gleich zu deföderieren?

    Very interesting watch in my opinion.

    looking for resources on ABA written by level 2 or level 3 autistics

    CW: Post discusses ABA and possibly Trauma, internalized ableism

    Hello there! I'm currently researching the issue of ABA. I'm reading a lot about the criticisms, but most of the resources I found so far are (likely) made by level 1 autistics. As level 2 and level 3 autistics are not as well represented within autism self-advocacy, I would like to understand their position better on the topic. A usual defense for ABA is that it can help high-support-needs autistics to learn important skills, but I would like to read about that from an autistic perspective.

    So if there are resources on the subject you can recommend, I'll be grateful! thank you

    edit: I'm updating because users in this thread changed my view on this issue. I've been caught up in functioning label, which at the end of the day "levels" of autism still are. Here is what changed my mind:

    > Those needs you are looking for in an autistic person are completely and utterly irrelevant to you as a reader of their experience, and as far as you’re concerned any or all of the people who have already written about their experience of ABA fit in to your narrow and ignorant category, they just didn’t mention it because again - it isn’t fucking relevant.

    There is no reason for me to specifically look for "level 2 or 3" autistics since their experiences are valid, regardless of them disclosing their support needs. It is ableist to expect them to disclose to me how "disabled" they are in order for me to validate their experience. Thanks @DessertStorms@kbin.social and @Ransom@lemmy.ca for helping me understand this. So in a way I found the answers I was looking for, and now I have some thinking to do

    How to get structure/routine and maintain it

    Hi there. Things have spiraled out of control lately, I don't have a stable job at the moment and when I do, I mostly work from home.

    I urgently need to establish some kind of routine and find a way to follow it. Productivity isn't even the priority as I do have a good amount of free time. Problem is that I don't use this boredom effectively at all.

    I wanted to know if there are books/guides that could help ADHD people establish routines and how to keep them up. I'm autistic too, which means I greatly benefit from routine.

    Thanks for any kind of advice!

    Brainstorm request: Hobbies for depressed autistic/adhd person

    I feel a little bad for asking for help again..

    So I need to do something. I have no idea what though. So these are things to consider for me:

    • I prefer something regular and scheduled. My Autism needs consistency, but my ADHD makes it really hard to establish and maintain.
    • I need to get out of my home. I am withering here
    • some (predictable) social interaction is okay. If it is too much I probably won't be able to keep up. I'd prefer something with a low upfront social cost (honestly the idea of being introduced to a new group feels overwhelming)
    • I prefer a somewhat sensory friendly environment (for example the music in a gym would be really really stressful)

    I would like to know what kinds of things you found in your lives that worked. Thanks!

    being "confident" doesn't mean you should double check just to be sure, it means you should pretend to be certain about things you are not certain about.

    I've spent some time reflecting yesterday and I realized that. When people want you to be confident they don't want you to be actually confident, they want you to pretend you are. It is idiotic and makes no sense, but it explains a lot of situations in which I behaved the wrong way.

    confidence to me means the opposite of that. it means questioning your asssumptions, approaching things from a different angle, reflect, recalculate, asking for a second opinion. Because I'll end up with greater confidence that my assertions are more truthful. But apparently doing all that makes people think I'm insecure. Shit!

    ADHD + Depression is weird

    I don't know where the purpose of my life is. I looked where I last saw it and it isn't there anymore. It's like losing your keychain. All I can do is hope I forgot it somewhere at home because I sure can't go outside without it. I wanna find joy in things again, and it is so difficult to get you shit together when everything feels so meaningless.

    The more I look for the keys the more I fear I lost them for good. Which makes me not wanna search for them at all and just distract myself with random stuff. I think that describes my situation quite well.

    Anyway I'm sad. But I hope you all are doing okay!

    there is a spider above my desk and it didn't move in like two months

    I have been planning for ages to clean up my room and remove the spider but since I've been depressed and my executive dysfunction has been at work, I didn't do anything about it.

    Guess what happened today - the spider caught a fly and is happily feasting right now. So turns out I haven't been all alone lately - both the spider and I have been in some kind of hibernation for some time. The spider also doesn't initiate smalltalk so I think it is fair to assume it is autistic too.

    Anyway I've posted here lately as I haven't been well, so I'll just let you know that I feel a bit more positive about getting shit done and change things for the better. hugs (for anyone who wants one)!

    inability to socialize

    I honestly feel bad posting here again, I feel like a burden. It's just me struggling.. so feel free to skip this post and look at more interesting things

    the past two months have been much tougher for me than usual, and when I am not doing well, my capacity to interact with other people is pretty close to zero. I feel a very strong desire to be alone. Having other people notice that I am not well is pretty much the worst thing - I can't talk about what's wrong, and every time I tried my best expressing myself it didn't help. All I really get is advice that does not work for me. So I usually try to pretend I am okay, but at a certain point I can't even really do that anymore.

    problem is I'm not living alone. I've skipped quite a number of meals in the past week because I don't want to get into conversations that I don't want to have. I feel like it would be disastrous unmasked, that's why I go this far just to avoid interaction. both of my roommates judge me for spending so much time in my room and I think they tell me to get out every time they see me. I never know how to react to that. Being open about my mental health isn't a good idea - it will end up in them giving me advice that might work for neurotypical, and then they'd blame me if I don't follow their advice. They already kind of do that. I've told one of them about my diagnosis but I don't really think that has no meaning for him.

    I feel pathetic skipping dinner anything because I want to avoid social interactions. But in all honesty, I still think it is not worth the stress.
