    Vietnam: the majority of the people of Vietnam didn’t want the US there, the US was interfering in a civil war it shouldn’t be meddling in.

    Iraq: same thing, the US wasn’t wanted and didn’t have a reason to meddle.

    Taiwan: the people of Taiwan don’t want China there and China shouldn’t invade. No one should invade.

    People have a right to self determination. If China doesn’t control Taiwan and the people of Taiwan want to keep the same government they have, then they should be allowed to. China invading Taiwan would be an unjustified imperialist act. Taiwan has a right to call upon its allies and friends for help if invaded and the alliances and friendships should be honored by those allies.









  • What’s the last instance anyone would want to defederate from? The instance which deals the most with troubleshooting technical problems. programming.dev has a lot of technical communities and also a lot of users who answer technical questions.

    I also like the local experience on programming.dev. If the instance is too small, local feels empty. But, on the other hand, a lot of large instances have local feeds which are just like the all feed. I feel like programming.dev has a good balance of a distinctive yet active local feed.







  • Looking through Netflix or prime video or something and not finding anything interesting? Try reading a book. Not a snarky message, actually try it out if you’re bored of movies and shows.

    Not sure how to find books you’re interested in? Check out goodreads or forums like r*ddit. Search for the same genres as the shows you watch and try out the best rated books in that genre that pique your interest.
