OP shared a thought. I pointed this is a formal concept and pointed the name, so they can search for more. The concept describes a real and observable phenomena.
Why are you bringing moral judgement of people here? Even if poor people are guilt of their own poverty (they aren’t) like you are implying, it doesn’t change they are formally, but not really free. Marx description stills holds up.

A nation built on stolen land where the better predictor of your class is is you are descendants from the settlers or from tha natives.
Nothing is stopping…
Except the inequal distribution of aducational and work opportunities, that assure the intergenerational inequality reproduction.
Your comment about some people having fought for rights and others not is borderline racist. With precious comments about Darwin, it’s a red flag.
All people fight. Some fights are smashed with unimaginable violence. We are watching a live genocide in Gaza to prove this point. Oceania colonization is built upon a genocide. I’m not assuming you have conscience of how disturbing these comments are for a person like me, in South America, where all attempts to built a decent society where meet with USA interventions. Try to think in more broad terms, not only based on your experience, but trying to encompass the multiple experiences in the world.
Yeah. Marx called it formal vs. real freedom. All the people are free to sleep under the bridges or at a five star penthouse. But some are forced to sleep under the bridge and only a few have means to exercise the freedom to enter the penthouse.
Thanks. This is a great work for non-English fediverse enthusiasts.

Do you have the link of the source? Thanks.

China’s cumulative per capita emissions of 227 tons of CO₂ are significantly lower than those of the EU (682 tons) and the USA (1,570 tons)
Exactly. Trump wants do buy Venezuelan oil, and Venezuela wants to sell it, but US sanctions don’t allow it. What Trump needed was a way to lift the sanctions that didn’t look too much as a defeat, so they kidnap Maduro to pretend bolivarianism is over and lift the sanctions.
This. And also for Israel. And France.
This is a very complex discussion that I like a lot. And a very philosophical one.
For starters, we cannot separate the process of making groups (cinephile, gamer, etc.) from the concrete conditions where these groups are made. I would say that categorization is not a liberal agenda per se, but inside social media dynamics it’s a compliance dispositive.
I like this article a lot and will put some quotes,
The categorization today, under social media is mostly a performative act, where you declare your conformity to the group, not some sort of self discovery process.
Subjectivation is not a flowering of autonomy and freedom; it’s the end product of procedures that train an individual in compliance and docility. One accepts structuring codes in exchange for an internal psychic coherence. Becoming yourself is not a growth process but a surrender of possibilities that we learn to regard as egregious, unbecoming. “Being yourself” is inherently limiting. It is liberatory only in the sense of freeing one temporarily from existential doubts. (Not a small thing!) So the social order is protected not by preventing “self-expression” and identity formation but encouraging it as a way of forcing people to limit and discipline themselves — to take responsibility for building and cleaning their own cage. Thus, the dissemination of social-media platforms becomes a flexible tool for social control.
This is a product of how these platforms works, as they are neoliberal tools to promote neoliberal subjectivation.
Social media’s quantifying metrics aggravate the problem, making expression into a series of discrete items to be counted, ranked. It serves as the infrastructure for a feedback loop that orients expression toward the anxiety of what the numbers will be and accelerates it, as we try to better those numbers, and thereby demonstrate that the self-monitoring is teaching us something about how to become more “relevant.”
What is odd is that the connectivity of the internet exacerbates that sort of neoliberal ideology rather than mitigating it. Connectivity atomizes rather than collectivizes. But that is because most people’s experience of the internet is mediated by capitalist entities, or rather, for the sake of simplicity, by capitalism itself.
They do this by transforming ourselves in commodities. The categorization in neoliberal material conditions is the process to adapt the multiplicity of the human being to a market niche in a optimization process that take away all pieces that don’t fit that market niche, don’t generate value,
Social media offer a single profile for our singular identity, but our consciousness comprises multiple forms of identity simultaneously: We are at once a unique bundle of sense impressions and memories, and a social individual imbued with a collectively constructed sense of value and possibility. Things like Facebook give the impression that these different, contestable and often contradictory identities (and their different contexts) can be conveniently flattened out, with users suddenly having more control and autonomy in their piloting through everyday life. That is not only what for-profit companies like Facebook want, but it is also what will feel natural to subjects already accustomed to capitalist values of convenience, capitalist imperatives for efficiency, and so on.
If they continue this this analisys, they will discover leninism.

To have a decentralised network, you need a lot of servers storing some data and a access algorithm thar searches for the pieces. There are a lot of hard problems:
The architecture is good for storing and distributing many copies of a few very popular contents (and shines in torrent) but is bad for storing, searching for, and accessing many unpopular and mildly popular contents.
This is actually a great achievement. It’s super hard to overcome steam.
And to hide the collapsing demand that fuelled their bad quarter numbers (higher stockpile and time to get paid for sales).
Had to nuke the profile on my instance. The modlog tells the crocodile is toning down their true opinions to appear less egregious.
