Saying Primates have "human like qualities" is precisely the inverse of what's going on. Human's do "primate things" not the other way around. [Behaviour]

We should Describe Authoritarian policies as "INGSOC-ian" not "Orwellian." George Orwell was just the Messenger [literature][political slant]
I document my adventures on my Server's Discord, so I take lots of pictures. Here's a recent one:
What do you think about the concept of Ownership Transcendence?
What do you think about the concept of Ownership Transcendence? - Lemmy.World
I was thinking that, as it applies to Intellectual Property mostly, there comes a point at which a service or idea gains such traction and ubiquity in it’s use or implementation by humanity as a whole, that to apply any form of creative control or ownership to it is morally wrong, on philosophical grounds. This could also apply to physical objects as well. In short it’s the concept that Total Ubiquity defeats Copywrite and Patent as a matter of course. If said thing requires upkeep, it is not a thing that CAN be “owned” but rather operated in stewardship. I feel in our current Late-Stage Capitalist quagmire this might be a controversial proposal, so I wanted to bounce it off of some other people to get their take on it as an idea, and if there are any similar philosophies like it (other than communism, obviously). I got to thinking about it after landing on the Google start page and coming to the realization that so much of our world relies on what Google provides that for one corporation to be in sole control of it is a security risk in of itself. I understand I’m probably preaching to the choir here, so try to be objective in your answers please, but don’t feel the need to censor yourself either. Thanks, I look forward to hearing your thoughts!
Reddit AI Mods strike again!
Reddit AI Mods strike again! - Lemmy.World
r/AskReddit had a thread that asked how people thought the trump administration would end. I have never seen so many [Post removed by Reddit] notifications. I complained that not being able to threaten violence against these TEMU Nazis was just enabling them. Yeah… I appealed, because, Show me where exactly I actually made a"credible threat of violence" BRUH. I was just complaining that I couldn’t, not saying I was going to. FFS. (I EVEN POINTED OUT THIS DISTINCTION IN THE POST!!) 12+ fucking years. Over 53K in comment karma. Poof. So I did research to find alts for Ye olde Reddits and this place seemed to be the most recommended. So here I am! The real pisser is that I mostly used reddit to interact with the minecraft/hermitcraft fandoms, and was a member in (VERY) good standing in those communities. Reddit is going to hell in a handbasket and it’s infuriating to watch. It used to be so lovely to post there, but this over reliance on AI moderation is going to be the death of it. Especially on the more political side of it. Anyway, I hope this place works out better.
