How did you find a meme funny or interesting that you are seemingly unsure of how to interpret? Don’t get me wrong, I am not saying you are being paid or anything. I am saying your behavior is weird to me and I am trying to understand the motivation. And seemingly many people find you odd.

My issue is that I believe that there is an Agenda but their post history is just so random at times. Sometimes pro and then contra Stalin. I Don’t know, they might be just weird

I post when I have something to add to the platform as a post and not a random meme that I don’t understand and think it might mean something but I am not sure.

Mhm interesting perspective, that would explain it.

Fair, thanks for the talk

I know some environmentalists and I have heard that they want to put anything in the museum in that sense. But honestly having a replica might be good for a museum

I am thinking then we both understood some and misunderstood some.

My point was, if I want to critic the blog for it’s internally odd Argumentation, then obviously it makes sense to use the blog as a source and it is in fact the only valid source for the critic of internally odd Argumentation.

My intention wasn’t to use the blog as a source for anything beyond that.

Let’s say you are 100% correct, how does that matter in the regards of how you have to understand animal farm as a text?

I think we would be off-road quite a bit here and I am not interested in that.

Something that you might want to consider when evaluating people at any given time is their environment, how it impacted them and in case of idealisms, what does it mean for the possible success of it. I am specifically not claiming it is the case, but e.g. Orwell could felt threatened by his environment, both personally and his believes. Stalin and his supporters could meant for him to possible death of the ideals that he hold because from his pov, it was a perversion of his ideals. At the same time, he didn’t want to become a victim of the liberal capitalist. So from his pov, distracting the capitalists by destroying the perversion of his believes, might sounded to him like the best way of action for his ideals and himself, which was worth protecting even in a strictly idealogical perspective, as he had a loud voice for the movement. I don’t claim that this is the case, I am just saying that you could make sense of it without making him a “both sides guy”. This is not an invitation of discussion but of consideration when evaluating people from a different time.

I am sorry, misunderstanding on my end. It read to me as if you were expressing that I shouldn’t be using the blog as source. I had a huge jet lag, idk maybe there is the reason. My bad sorry

Weird, you are the poster but you THINK the meme is something. And who thinks that animal farm is the whole leftist theory?

Next up, my meme is that there is more to tomato sauce than bacon. (Some people put bacon in their tomato sauce).

He wrote from his pov a list of Stalin supporters, according of your source. Pro-socialism, contra-stalin. What I claimed.

I know and it was in favor for socialism/communism, just not for Josef Stalin.

Why do you think he wrote the allegory? What was his point? “Stalin pig”?

I don’t get it. Animal farm is pro socialism and maybe pro communism, it is a cautionary tale of the corrupting force of power.

Or is the meme about how leftist became leftist because of animal farm?

So I shouldn’t use text written by the author to understand the pov of the author and critic his pov because it is “only” a blog post, noted.

I agree and I am fully supportive of an open source computer from top to bottom. This shouldn’t be here.

Aren’t you misunderstanding my point a little bit? My point isn’t that the e.g. us should ban TikTok or that national security is the most important thing ever. My first Point was that there is a national security incentive to ban TikTok in ways that e.g. Facebook doesn’t have, but like you expressed obviously there are other consideration to be made. My first Point was just that TikTok is not like Facebook from an us national security pov. Then you spoke from a ban for service members, to which I simply pointed out that there is one to some degree, especially important as there is a ban on private devices in some environments. Deployment can be reason for the ban. In other words, your suggestion is already in place to some degree. My 2nd point about Russian propaganda is also strictly about the fact that “national security” doesn’t end at the government employee line and suggesting that is ridiculous.

As you might have realized, I haven’t expressed any desire to ban TikTok. That is because I am not in favor of a ban. I am just able to argue a perspective unlike mine own and think it is necessary when people treat Facebook and TikTok the same. Do you think china doesn’t care about where their software is coming from? Do you think no one is avoiding e.g. check point firewall due to e.g. gil shwed and his story with unit 8200?

Well look at that. And no, that isn’t enough from a military perspective. Look at the Russian propaganda war in e.g. Germany, that shit can have a negative effect on the defensive abilities of a nation.

Because it isn’t new nor special.

Apps are a Service and services have been and are regulated for decades now and the system have been always arbitrary as fuck.

In the case of TikTok, the west, as a military alliance, should be concerned due to the nature of current valid Chinese laws and the implications of it.

And e.g. facebook has proven that they don’t like to stick to rules about how to handle data. In case of TikTok, this could easily have bigger implications for e.g. the American military.

Realistically capitalist

My comment was directed to the blog post and the claims contained in it.

The blog post claims it is popular in academy, if that is a deserved label, then I don’t understand how the author of the post lands on “there is no good or bad way, they are all valid”. I am in favor of strong juxtaposition but that is not the case that I am making here. Sorry for the confusion.
