Listened to this podcast with author of book "Don't talk about politics" Dr Sarah Stein Lubrano.
https://api.substack.com/feed/podcast/189991441/e888cad16e3c5835d2a100dc101d783c.mp3 (yes, I know the platform is bad)
Basically confirms what I felt was true: politically debating strangers is useless if not counterproductive. What does is friendship and experience.
But further: forming friendships with people outside of our comfort zone is a social skill that can be trained or atrophy, and that SM is a bad medium for it. Importance of 3rd spaces.

@resl yes, yes I have 😮💨
I've come to the point that if an activity does need everyone's participation, then I won't start unless that's the case 🤷 intersects with consent.
This _may_ mean having to exclude people who don't want to participate... but I see no other way.

@resl my impression is that he was and is a good old socialist. I knew some people in momentum, the movement to try and get him to lead the party to victory - apparently he & team were really not up to date with tech stuff. I believe he did not take a clear stand on Brexit, which I think was a mistake.

@UlrikeHahn farewell reddit anon 😢
Interesting world we're coming too, where anything published online will likely be preserved for ever and quite possibly identifiable to author.
Most people will still remain anonymous by sheer volume of content, but politicians, etc will likely need to be trained from adolescence to keep squeaky clean record...

"What if all governance is onboarding?"
https://enfascination.com/weblog/post/2857
The title is the thesis, but the detail is worth reading. Kind of reminds me of CAP theorem, except for people https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/CAP_theorem

@hongminhee I'm reading this thread as a relative noob, but what I see again and again: almost no one "properly" implents #ActivityPub largely because #JSONLD is hard but also because the spec itself is unclear. Most people who get stuff done have to go off-spec to actually ship.
This seems a fundamental weakness of the #fediverse - and that disregarding the limitations coming from base architecture. Seems to pose a mid/long-term existential threat.
What can we do to help improve things?

@relistan I don't know... Printing press released religious war in Europe, radio arguably enabled fascism... One person's "panic" is another's "reasonable concern".
I mean the fact that we're kind of having cold war 2/WW III + continued biocide does not support the argument these developments were unproblematic. @JamesBaker @lkanies

@wikipedia I've been following the issue. Huge news! As with all Wikipedia development, a lot of care being taken on legacy/compatibility. This is going to simplify a lot going forward.
