  • Its mostly bots nowadays like the rest of the platforms, it feels genuinely suffocating to try to find real content on them beyond hobbies.

    As for hobbies, I think a lot stay due to the communities in question already having years of content on them, or can't be bothered to find other platforms (because their community isn't on the other platforms)

  • Haha😃 😃 great post Mr president hey just wondering what's the first part of that quote?

  • Im arab and will try to speak on an arab state (I am biased, since I am in favor of the idea). This is absolutely not possible in the next 40 (very optimistic view) years, but will be set in the far future.

    It's a very multi faceted problem tbh. But i think it can be split into three big ones, concerning the peninsula, levant and north africa:

    The peninsula should be one. It's less historic/cultural difference that there's multiple monarchies, but political (and British fuckery of course). Yemen is more complex. I don't want to speak confidently, but from my limited understanding, I think a republic composing of the entire peninsula is still the best choice (?). Provinces at least, maybe.

    It gets complex with the levant and especially north africa. While they are all arabs, they have different conditions. It's made up of republics (and Jordan) who, despite the modern nations being artificial created after the dissolution of the Ottomans and British/French occupation, they still have roots in actual history, and it can't be waved away as easily as the Peninsula's monarchies (i.e. Palestine, Iraq, Syria off the top of my head). There's also the fact that it has more minorities than the Peninsula. The Kurdish, Yazidis, Assyrians, Circassians. (These are the non-Arab minorities. There are arab minorities such as the Druze and Alawites) In fairness, China is very ethnically diverse too, however the PRC is not based on Han-nationalism. My armchair professional solution? Republics (the Peninsula would be a republic too alongside it, as a reference)

    North Africa is the hardest, imo (I know the least about their conditions, so it may not be actually hard but just me not knowing enough lol). However they've had the most major Arab nationalist movements, so it's not impossible. Off the top of my head, there's the Copts, Berbers (and all the history and differences inbetween) and Nubians. I won't touch on this too much, but in this scenario, they'd either not be included in the Arab union (unlikely? Egyptian/Libyan history for ref) or be included as republics?

    I think the best answer would be a federation that would integrate overtime. a complete Arab nation despite pan-Arabism, would have to be very diverse politically (not that it's contradictory, but explicitly noting) Of course this is assuming it would be state-atheist/secular, a unitary islamic republic across the whole three regions would implode in civil war in 3 seconds lmao. I'm curious how the historic ML Arab parties thought of Arab nationalism however.

    Thank you for coming to my ted talk. I think about this question a lot to myself honestly and would appreciate Arab comrades on lemmygrad for corrections and thoughts.

  • I used to know one, they were a very sweet person. They were a closeted queer and in a rural area so they did understandably vent a lot about living in China. I still think about them sometimes

    Edit: oh I re-read, overseas people too, One was total doomer and talked a lot about "liberating China" lol

  • Thank you!

  • Nice argument, but i've drawn myself as the high-pitched cawing fan-shaped smooth crow, and you as the deep croak, gronk, "rrrock" shaggy "hackled" raven.
