This is literally why the FBI & CIA exist.

This is why we need federated comms.
Each instance has a low-activity community under instance.tld/c/community
. For most instances and most topics, this will mean checking a comm yields maybe a few new posts a week, and if you want to see all the content related to that topic, you'll have to check every instance your server federates with individually.
Having a single instance.tld/f/community
that aggregates all the per-instance comms so there's one topic-specific place with everything would be far more enjoyable of an experience.
This functionality is probably the biggest benefit that could be facilitated by federation, since we already have federated post comments. Activity is high enough now that posts feel lively, and the main feed has enough interesting stuff, but the one thing that still feels lacking compared to reddit is being able to browse a sub and find a reasonable amount of fresh content if you haven't checked back in the last week or so.
Subscriptions are also far less useful if you have to manually find and subscribe to every instance's comm with the same name. Being able to sub once to the federated comm and sub to all the instance comms would make the subscriptions feed go from my least used feed to my most used.
Trump finna turn the masses against the military and the military against the state. Fascists are so good at shooting themselves in the foot.
The Pentagon ran a program intended to kill untold number of innocent civilians just to hurt China and all lemmyoids can do is bicker about the effectiveness of Chinese vaccines.
The CIA thanks you for your service
"Mom, not fair!"
Doing their part to fight climate change by shitting in the AC unit.
You're advocating for imperialism.
You mistake analysis for advocacy.
If Mexico started making military and security agreements to host Chinese security assets on our southern border, I wouldn't be surprised if the US took military actions to stop it. I'd fight that decision, but I'd understand why the US made it.
I simply want the deaths to stop. It is looking like the only path to that is Russia having control over the eastern parts of Ukraine.
Who would have guessed that sovereignty is violated by war?
This conflict did not begin in 2022. The western conceptualization of it did, because the preceding events make their current narrative look illegitimate. US foreign policy is to instigate events like these in neighboring states of other regional powers.
Let's not forget the US violated Ukrainian sovereignty by interfering in a coup to overthrow Yanukovych in 2014. Was Ukraine sovereign when the US gave intelligence to Svoboda loyalists so they could hunt down the former head of state? Was Ukraine sovereign when Victoria Nuland was ruling out candidates for subsequent heads of state?
I wish for Ukrainians to live happy, healthy, and long lives free of interference by foreign powers. I understand this to be impossible at present. They will never have an independent state or foreign policy again, regardless of who wins this war.
You wish for Ukrainians to continue to throw themselves into the furnace to beat Russia. They will have just as little sovereignty, but far more dead Ukrainians.
I feel so sorry for Ukrainians, especially those who wanted none of this.
The president can only exercise policies to execute those laws.
If the United States determines at any time that a transfer is no longer in accordance with United States foreign policy objectives, national security goals, or legal obligations, the United States may cease the transfer of or future support for a transferred defense article or service.
Biden could act unilaterally here.
This is elementary school civics in the US.
Yes, and he needs a declaration of war to go to war. 🙄 Just because your education ended with an elementary school reading of the constitution, doesn't mean that's how the country operates in practice.
"Checks and balances" exist in name only. Sure the supreme court or congress could strike down new social programs, but war and spy powers exist independently from the legislative and judicial branches.
Quite possibly. My comment wasn't intended as a refutation.
No they won't. My favorite projects aren't Google projects.
