Doctoral candidates still have around 1% chance of success in my country. Academia is more often a way of expressing niche knowledge, and it represents a different can of worms. Things like grade inflation, ivy league nepotism aren’t even addressing the problematic areas of higher education. But anyway, the areas of specialization are too narrow to be broadly celebrated as leadership qualities. Given the unreformed state of islam, It is more than likely that religious bodies in Iran selected their negotiation team for their work ethic, since most of their government officers are easily distributed along similar religious and political lines. The PhDs in Iran’s team do not contribute to their own specialization because doctorate work requires ultimate devotion, unless they’re willing to fail and join the 99% of candidates.

Some apostates are still in iran. Not all of them landed lucrative projects in regime change think-tanks. This is why I don’t trust America and its eager bloodthirsty soldiers to liberate any of my cities. For warmongers, war is just a way to quell boredom and to sacrifice civilian lives in the name of pretentious logic.

Pride month celebrations were my go-to events in secret. My family doesn’t really understand the niche appeal of the game, and state religious agents can’t really “disguise themselves” ingame. But if Jagex is veering right, they might (like twitter) sell my information to security agencies the same way the Sauds/Turks did to Twitter a few years ago.

At least I get to wear my pride cape 24/7 until my membership runs out. In hindsight, It was a bad idea to assume that shooting stars/maple forestry/w301 hate chats were “isolated incidents”. They’re clearly part of an ongoing trend that has the CEO’s approval. Oh well, there’s always a countdown to good things. I should enjoy it while it lasts.

Moderation rulings are subjective. There are legitimate interests in free speech, even if the idea itself has no distinct and clear impressions. At best, he’s only applying an inference. At worst, he’s suppressing free speech that he doesn’t like hearing.

Supposing that the mod is using the “german definition”, there is still the issue of hosting an incredibly popular instance. In online places where a huge influx of non-german users live, I’d argue that it should be treated like a public place where free speech is granted. How am i supposed to understand the cultural realities of Germany if I live thousands of miles away from it? Am I supposed to tone down my right to free speech just because they’ve treated their subjective experience as a universal law?

But I like that on Lemmy, I’m seeing diverse discussion on German/Austrian law. I don’t get to see that on other prominent platforms, which tend to favor wikipedia-type discourse that often ends with american pop history/culture inferences.

Lemmy has a variety of fresh opinions, and I like how everyone has different experiences. For example, I hardly see a unified opinion on what people think of Gen-Xers, Millenials, Gen Z and Gen Alpha. They seem well-distributed and for the most part, there’s less of those subtle reddit-style “generalizations” here. I typically look for internet spaces that emulate reality, and I think Lemmy does that well.

I see everything as a risk, since I’m living a double life. It is often that the road for me to leave as an apostate is narrow, and chances of me being free is close to none. But I don’t stop there. I remind myself that I have friends who looked after me, and I mourn those who passed away from terminal illnesses. Grief seems to talk to me not in stages, but as a constant companion. I balance everything with the good and the meditative. It doesn’t always work, but I like to try them everyday anyway. Good luck buddy.

Cultivating and making a new home in the Internet, away from all the usual noise. I selectively choose my sources, but some apps like Lemmy tend to do them automatically. I say to myself that I don’t have infinite time and will only read reliable world updates. A new home takes time, but I think it’ll pay off in the long run.

Yes. Financial independence would give ample time for me to escape abuse but alas, I’m trapped under family’s false insights and paranoia.

The opposite of “in hiding”. State religious authorities catching wind of my apostasy, and bringing me before a “religious rehab” judge. Judge delivers his sentence on me, in accordance with his religious rules. My community loses another apostate, and other like-minded individuals secretly turtle-up even further.

But hey, perks of being an apostate is having fun and leading a content life in the digital universe. So, I’m happy living in new homes that serve as permanent alternative spaces to Meta and others.

Happy to be here! I’m looking forward to my new home in Lemmy!
