If you look in your access logs, or /var/log/nginx/access.log and look for user agents in the log file that indicate things like chatgptbot, etc. Then add if ($http_user_agent ~* "useragent1|useragent2|... useragents") { return 403; } to the server block of your websites config file in /etc/nginx/sites-enabled/. You can also add a robots.txt that forbids scraping. Chatgpt generally checks and respects that… for now. This paired with some of the stuff above should work.
Bidens state department openly enables and encourages genocide and then they feel slighted by his sub 40% approval (blaming the people for your poll numbers is really not helping the situation for anybody that needs to hear this). I don’t know what is so hard for them to understand. Nobody is happy with the course of action. A great way to reverse these poll numbers would be to stop providing Israel with material support for genocide and to provide Palestinians material support for simply existing, but Biden has made his bed with a base of liberals that is a rapidly shrinking block and without them he has literally no support what-so-ever. The message that these tone def liberals will inevitably not take from all this is that the democratic party needs to change dramatically if they ever want to win a national election again. Honestly this is the message they needed to get in 2016 and failed to pick up on when they went all in on Hillary. They took winning in 2020 with Biden as a mandate from the masses, which they misread incredibly (He won because we all had enough of Trumps shit and promptly learned that hey, actually Bidens shit is worse somehow) and they are now running on the mandate nobody ever gave them. Trump is going to trounce any Democrat they could run in 2024, because the one thing the Democrats don’t get is that the demographics have changed. Liberal boomers are not a viable course to victory and Black and Latino voters are much more conservative then they want to believe and are finding the modern democratic party just as racist as the modern republican party, so why not vote their religious values. The math is not good for a democratic base which makes a plurality of about 37% of likely voters. If the Democrats want to fill in that gap they need to do things to pull in more young voters, who don’t want genocide in Gaza. Denying it is happening is the most tone def way to appeal to a generation of voters who actually know what gaslighting is.
Fuck Israel and anybody that supports them. No Apartheid state has any right to exist.
I love star trek, so I love that instance, but Lemmy.world feels like its replicating the toxic discussion style from reddit. I’m not here because I loved reddit but hate what they did to it. I have hated reddit for years, I am here for a completely different thing from reddit. The slrpnk instance and the Lemmy.ml are the main instances I want to interact with. If there are other anarchist instances in the future, I’d like to interact with those, but ideally keep the toxic bullshit to a minimum.
I would be on here more if you could block entire instances. If its possible at this point, its not as straight forward as mastodon.
I love this idea. Will definitely look into installing on my desktop. I’m working on a searxng instance that filters out all the toxic sources that think they own the internet also. Its also very much a work in progress, but yeah, these putzes get too much attention on the internet and anything we can do for our own peace of mind to delete them from pur lives is absolutely worth doing. I put a lot of filters on mastodon to the same end and it has made my social media experience so much more enjoyable.
I modified my searxNG to basically look through the results for anything on a ban list and exclude those items. But out of the box its just pulling stuff from a bunch of unreliable sources. I think you have to do a lot of tuning by using their built in tools to add sites you want to index and get rid of stuff you don’t. The cool thing is that you can fine tune it though.
There are tons of defendants across Amerikkka in similar situations and the fact that the ACLU is constantly defending scumbags in the name of protecting all of our rights is the most asinine liberal bullshit I can think of. How many poor black people are there sitting in rikers on some stop-and-frisk bullshit, while the ACLU is prioritizing the rights of Neo-Nazis? There are plenty of other ways to address warranties searches and ironically this dipshit would probably benefit from any precedent that addresses this issue, but at the very least… and this is an example of the bar being in hell and them trying to lower… but at the least, don’t provide free legal defense council for society’s best arguments against civilization. But if none of that resonates, just don’t defend people that spend a not insignificant amount of time and respurces to attack the existence of things like the ACLU before and after you defend them. Because when they get off, maybe their next attack will annihilate the right to free council for everybody else in the country. Or as Aus Rotten put it; don’t give them freedom because they’re not going to give you yours. Fuck Nazi Sympathy. Of any kind.
