frustrating to see this, cus it's leaving out the fact that conservatism has also derailed, arguably more so than something so common as a liberal worldview
14:54
does being louder and more annoying about your political beliefs somehow make you "more left" ?
14:54
seems like a load of bullshit to me
14:55
people think the coronavirus is fake, that supporting Russia is better than being liberal, and that we should go attack the capital building cus "muh president"
14:55
but yes let's talk about the liberals getting "crazy"
there's social liberalism and political liberalism which can and definitely do vary in practice
15:03
you could for some reason no support legislature that support <insert human rights laws here> and still be like "fuck trans people" etc
15:03
you may ask why this is the case
15:03
it's because we're stupid
15:04
i don't think many countries are much better but it feels like a largely American issue
15:05
where your politics are somehow not based on your moral system anymore
15:05
they're externalized and probed and biased towards whatever ur friends or mutuals on twitter are
15:05
or something as stupid as "em my family is allll conservatives"
15:07
anyways liberalism has been a thing for forever but rightists will insist we are getting "more left" while they invent even more fucked up things to believe about themselves
I mean what the US calls "socialist" isn't really what socialist would be properly defined as either. Bernie Sanders a self-proclaimed "socialist" is actually a social democrat
duckduckgo says "Favoring reform, open to new ideas, and tolerant of the ideas and behavior of others; not bound by traditional thinking; broad-minded. synonym: broad-minded."
15:18
this already seems like the opposite of conservativism
less regulation for some part of the world. e.g. less restrictions for individuals (more freedom of expression, speech, etc.). or less restrictions for companies (favoring the "the market will sort it out" thinking)
i don't know if i would describe myself as an ancom but im probably close to around there
15:22
"fuck everything and then let's form our own fair system naturally"

Primitive as in organizationally simple, say all governments disappeared overnight, I think we'd establish something very similar the day after, albeit much less complex to start with
sure the path to "can we do communism" is not a straightforward or even peaceful one but i think more about the logistics in that situation
15:28
supposing we are already prepped to try

and if that's the case, hey, we got here tearing shit apart, i guess we can just do it again
15:30
the anarchism part to me spells out the form of natural systems that you can still elect people for but aren't necessarily required to be considered "government" or something
15:31
like Paul may own all of the wheat in X town but chooses to organize distribution with other people. they could form a system around this without being recognized as government or smt
if ppl don't like how Paul is doing something they can do similarly "political" things in order to find the most fair solution but all of that would be automatic
15:32
sure yea
15:33
US should have a credit for voting so more people do it. Currently only angry people or people angry at the angry people do it
exception: if being an asshole is better for society overall, like someone else is being an asshole, then fine
15:37
people voting no one is not a big deal, people after voting a few times will absorb the idea of the value of it through time and from others and actually care(edited)
15:38
like example, i really don't care about who our president is, they're all shitheads
15:38
i would rather discuss state politics or representative politics
15:38
even though I know next to nothing about it since no one cares to talk about it instead of the president lol
Direct democracy or pure democracy is a form of democracy in which the electorate decides on policy initiatives without elected representatives as proxies. This differs from the majority of currently established democracies, which are representative democracies. The theory and practice of direct democracy and participation as its common characte...
problem is the common people don't know complex things, would you want direct democracy to decide education funding? Would you be okay if they cut funding to all secular schools and only religious schools are allowed to exist?
maybe i prefere a more conservative aproach to technology but want a more progressive aproach to issues regarding global warming
15:53
why should we be locked to 1 party only for everything?

this is outside of taking the current opinions of people i think

i am actually surprised we arent all a unified global power already, despite how much nationalism there is in the world you would think people would be like wait, we can just not have borders and shit and kill people over made up money
15:57
but that just shows how bad our systems are
15:57
they're meant, DESIGNED even, to prevent this

Trekonomics: The Economics of Star Trek is a 2016 book by French economist Manu Saadia. The book deals with the topic of the scarcity in the economy by looking at it in reverse. The author describes the 24th-century Star Trek universe in which scarcity does not exist at all. The book explores a post-scarcity age and how our society would need to change to adapt itself to such an environment. It looks at the expectations regarding automation and artificial intelligence and takes readers through a journey of the fictional, moneyless world of Star Trek. It also looks at the challenges to the Star Trek economy.
The constitution which is very annoying and hard to change, even for a majority. E.g. the system in the US is specifically designed so it's very very hard to change things so reactionary stuff like this doesn't randomly change the country everu 10 minutes
Anyway, direct democracies are dangerous because there are some things the common man should just not decide. Water supply policy, agriculture policy, financial policy, energy policy. I consider myself fairly well read and I wouldn't touch any of those myself

Representative democracy is supposed to digest this stuff into more easily understandable, sensible positions, it doesn't work very well, sure but I think it'd be in our interest to fix it instead of removing it
The problem is they are not elected, they have legitimacy but not authority. If we let experts decide things they would pretty much not be responsible to anyone
It's really hard to define what an expert is too. Is Jordan Peterson an expert in Psychology? Probably. Would I want him anywhere near government policy? NO
i think the idea of an expert being in the position alleviates a lot of this
16:18
they can manage explaining their actions better than any politician can

Benevolent dictator for life (BDFL) is a title given to a small number of open-source software development leaders, typically project founders who retain the final say in disputes or arguments within the community. The phrase originated in 1995 with reference to Guido van Rossum, creator of the Python programming language. Shortly after Van Ross...
without a team they have little representation. there are already many things that should exist but we don't have the time, it's disputed etc. a team manages this for devs, mappers, testers, and admin team to ensure the game is in the player's interest
multeasymap is so different from what ddnet is, it's players treat it like it's own gamemode, ideally it would be a constantly evolving map, but the rest of the ddnet maps benefit from the complete opposite, stasis.(edited)

yes, but we should at least manage our own expectations as well as others
16:28
the fact that we don't even know what we make of it is again a point of the team
16:29
is this "kind of thing" a ddnet thing or not
16:29
good or bad
16:29
and chat with players and find what the important things are
16:30
i can self-organize this ofc but I'm still so busy with everything lmao
16:30
just my basic needs are in danger because i refuse to get a job
16:30
16:31
@Learath2 and there is already a pain point with not having this team, sometimes people don't want to listen to me, or even know why i am whispering them in-game. who are you? how do i know you're even going to do anything? i have no credibility
16:32
even if i self-insert this team somewhere they're going to think well this is not official, probably some lame politics shit
16:33
you have seen how many things i have talked about, even outside of blockers, multeasymap, that line of things. i talk about all aspects of ddnet and if they are supporting the players

but let them know that ppl are going to get their messages relayed to discord
16:36
you are supposing about people that may or may not exist. as the leader of the Community Team (hooray you just made it a fucking thing) it's worth investigating who actually doesn't want to use discord. I already know chillerdragon won't
Chopin is very interesting melodically indeed, but I find myself listening to mozart more for one reason or the other. Maybe it's because he is always in my recently listened and spotify is manipulating me
lynn you are the only person who mentions me the most
not sure if you are my biggest fan or just jelous
or maybe your life doesn't exist without thinking about me hehehe =]
Meekrioz u laughed from me on Heartcross (you wrote kek) so for that I don't love you anymore we must seperate, both of us must go diffrent ways....
Choose your path, be free. Be like a bird... fly above people and "sheep" on them with everything you have
I bet you didn't realise you will get such a reply ^^

I killed it and i wanted to keep it dead, its people like you who must write about it all the time and when I reply about it then you have some kind of heart palpitations
u all never realise one thing
by writing bad about ddmax is writing about all the mappers who did spend a lot of their time and effort to do something for others
Thats why I can't allowe to insult them.
and whenever ddmax is mentioned its rarely just to talk shit about it. it literlay just evolved into a way of describing parts/maps because people understood what is meant

if u check every time tsin has replied to me it started with like 2 sentences from me

and whenever ddmax is mentioned its rarely just to talk shit about it. it literlay just evolved into a way of describing parts/maps because people understood what is meant
when it comes down to it you will always find a way to describe the part. with screenshots, tele numbers or saying which moves are done or what part come before or after
