[03:43] kingoffrance http://techrights.org/2021/04/29/with-sponsors-like-these/ [03:43] -TechrightsSocial/#boycottnovell-social-techrights.org | With Sponsors Like These | Techrights [03:43] kingoffrance yes, there are many think tanks, foundations, etc. writing public policy (or "recommendations") which then filter down [03:44] kingoffrance gates too, thomas watson on carnegie endowment pushing "trade" etc. [03:44] kingoffrance i mean, rand is one of the larger well known ones [03:44] kingoffrance but many of them are interlocked [03:45] kingoffrance nowadays youll probably see them pushing 4th industrial revolution /etc. [03:47] kingoffrance american foundations were investigated in the 1950s, although most of that is going to be written off as mccarthyism. they werent on commie hunts or capitalist hunts. they thought it was against "charities" to be trying to influence politics, etc. but that is ancient history. [03:47] kingoffrance anyways, tehre is long history there with such entities [03:47] kingoffrance (above is from wikipedia re: initial capital, so maybe better to verify that) [03:51] activelow kingoffrance, to keep it brief, i am extremely angry for the reason alone i am being spied upon for a decade or more [03:52] activelow if anyone wanted to talk to me there was many opportunities to do so [03:52] kingoffrance i dont blame you, and i dont doubt you, just i think many of these go back 100 years or more [03:52] kingoffrance i mean, corporations of any kind, are relatively recent and exploded perhaps in past 200 years or so [03:53] kingoffrance foundations as a tax move so inevitably came along [03:54] kingoffrance it goes much further back [03:56] kingoffrance "mortmain" "dead hands" there are perhaps a few times in history when charities or "churches" etc. ended up owning so much laws were made to prevent this. thomas jefferson thought it was monopolistic of sorts, hands that never alienate == no individual ever gets title, it just gets passed to successors over and over. so for america, goes all the way back to the founding whether to have first "central bank" or not, but this is ancient [03:56] kingoffrance history [03:57] kingoffrance over the centuries it was a problem too [03:57] kingoffrance and laws were written to prevent "charities" owning everything [03:57] kingoffrance just back then it was "the church" [03:58] kingoffrance not necessarily the same today re: ownership, but as a place for corporations to park their wealth and evade taxes yes [03:59] kingoffrance just saying, there is a long history ● Jun 27 [04:01] activelow nonetheless, rarely do any traces followed point to elsewhere than USA and in particular California [04:01] kingoffrance and for these reasons, i dont think it is a "wing" issue either. "lefties" dont like corporations escaping taxes. "capitalists" dont like people escaping competition [04:02] kingoffrance sure, i am curious whatever you find [04:02] activelow it isn't "capitalist" for the reason alone a capitalist system implied economic rationality, and private property [04:02] activelow and individual responsibility [04:03] kingoffrance yep [04:04] kingoffrance and many people wonder why "private" entities are "recommending" public policy etc. too [04:04] kingoffrance its always ppp [04:05] kingoffrance im private when you ask me this, im public when you ask me this [04:05] activelow in terms of politics i consider it *economic warfare* [04:05] kingoffrance dont disagree [04:05] kingoffrance im private people in a foundation for public purposes, created/funded by private entities etc. [04:06] kingoffrance recommending "public" policy etc. round and round it goes, where it stops noone knows :) [04:11] activelow this was one i *was* in contact with, almost 20 years ago: AIESEC [04:12] activelow won't miss them either [04:15] activelow the reason to study technical lecture after 1990 was to avoid politics entirely [04:20] activelow remarkable, seems "leaders" are picked from the alumni hitlist of theirs [04:23] kingoffrance politicians i think like "private associations" to discuss things off the record then the public doesnt get a transcript [04:25] kingoffrance so they put on their "private" hat for one meeting, then maybe they put on the "public" hat for another etc. too [04:26] kingoffrance this even came up with trump and twitter [04:26] kingoffrance he tried to censor/block someone (may have been smoething else not twitter) [04:26] kingoffrance so q is was he acting in "president" capacity or not [04:26] kingoffrance is one thing for "private individual" to block a follower (in a public place, ran by a private company) [04:27] kingoffrance it is another thign for a gov official, the president, to "censor" someone [04:27] kingoffrance these things come up all over the place [04:28] kingoffrance and same thing, if some site tries to "block" himn -- are they blocking his "private" capacity or trying to block a "gov" official etc. [04:28] kingoffrance and is whoever blocking someone, "private" or "public" etc. [04:30] techrights-news #Techrights Bulletin for Saturday, June 26, 2021 http://techrights.org/txt full archive: http://techrights.org/txt-archives #gnu #linux #freesw #plaintext [04:30] -TechrightsSocial/#boycottnovell-social-techrights.org | Bulletin Archives [04:32] techrights-news #Techrights full #IPFS index updated just now http://techrights.org/ipfs available as plain text @ http://techrights.org/ipfs/txt #dweb #sharing [04:32] -TechrightsSocial/#boycottnovell-social-techrights.org | Techrights Full IPFS Index [04:36] activelow concerning the type of "leaders" there's little to discuss remaining, the consequences of their decisions and murderous corruption will speak for themselves in the next decades [04:36] activelow i mean, swinging the axe against international telco for business profits, this alone is beyond comprehension of mine [04:40] techrights-news "Projects like the Debian Janitor are more than fantastic: they make for a robust, thorough and automated way to fix QA issues in the archive and I don't have enough good words to describe the amazing work of Jelmer Vernooij on the toolsuite the Janitor uses." https://veronneau.org/writing-qa-scripts-for-debian-teams.html [04:40] -TechrightsSocial/#boycottnovell-social-veronneau.org | Louis-Philippe Vronneau - Writing QA Scripts for Debian Teams [04:41] techrights-news "I've been using #weechat to connect to IRC since late 2016 and one of its killer feature is relays.
