(the latin alphabet is the same alphabet english is currently written in.)
German and Italian manage to be phonetic using it.
- Comment on Children never lie 1 day ago:
You dont need IPA to make it phonetic though:
You can stick with latin and just make phonetic rules consistent so if you hear a word you automatically know how to spell it. Like in german.

Oh, interessant! Mein Deutschlehrer hatte ein Lernburn aus 1985, vielleicht ist das der Grund, warum ich es so gelernt habe.

I’m armchair Freuding a bit, but I think that’s one of the reasons “Femdom” type pornos seem to be enjoyed by some men.
Like I totally get wanting a woman to take control. But the “femdom” stuff online tends to be degarding, straight up mean. (Which some people like and is okay, but it’s more mainstream than I’d imagine).
- Comment on Children never lie 2 days ago:
Yes. But phonetic languages phoneticise loanwords.
Ie. In Japanese the word “coffee” has bexome a loanword. But they don’t keep the unphoneticised english version. They phoneticise it to fit with their pronounciation and it becomes kohi.
(This is complicated of course by katakana and such but just an example. German tends to so the same, since it’s phonetic.)
Ie. German Kaffee from turkish kahve

Fuck spelling norms.
Make English Phonetic Again!
MEPA!

Do you not understand the concept of a safe space?
When you’re literally one of the most politically targeted groups and create a community the point might not be to make it a “free speech zone” but the one place on the internet you feel safe.
That doesn’t make them authoritarian politically. They’re just admins following through on a vision. Where people can freely join their instance or not. Not politicians enforcing their views on people who didn’t consent to it.
Blahaj doesn’t pretend to be a neutral instance like lemmy.ml does. It’s explicit.
- Comment on Shitsharing 2 days ago:
Youre mixing up moderation style and political ideology.
Blahaj is moderated to be a safe space for trans people. That means they remove anything remotely insulting or harmful. That’s their moderation policy. That doesn’t mean their political views are authoritarian.
- Comment on Shitsharing 2 days ago:
Lemmy.world, sh.itjust.works and Feddit.org are the most centrist ones probably. They’re like liberal leftism while the rest of lemmy tends to be explicitly anti-capitalist.
- Comment on Shitsharing 2 days ago:
Blahaj is explicitly anti-tankie. I mean look at the banner of !onehundredninetysix@lemmy.blahaj.zone, so they are clearly lib left.
Whilst dbzer0 is literally explicitly anti-capitalist.
So both of those go lib left. Perhaps dbzer0 more lib and blahaj more left.

In all seriousness where I currently live all the small far left parties ally into a metaparty/alliance called “Together: The Left” so there’s no vote splitting and they have better chances and name recognition.
- Comment on YSK that apart from not having a car, the single greatest thing you can do for the climate is simply eating less red meat 5 days ago:
I think it’s also a bit of a thing where most people treat it like a binary.
They either think you have to go full on vegetarian or you eat meat.
When what we should really be encouraging most people to do is cut down on meat. (You’re gonna have a lot less sucess if you ask them to straight up stop).

Did you miss the “one country two systems” -> “national security law” -> anyone who opposes the ruling party goes straight to jail thing.
(Which happened 20 years later).
- Comment on As China prepares to invade Taiwan, a reality check: sitting on the sidelines won’t help Australia 6 days ago:
I don’t think they will straight up invade.
I think they will blockade, fund disinformation campaigns, increase “cooperation”, it’ll be a government capture à la Hong Kong.

I don’t see how relevant that is here. Arguably the EU is supporting Israel’s genocide.

Lemmy.ml is not anti-imperialist. They remove anything critical of China and Russia, both imperialist states.
Instances that are actually anti-imperalism in that they criticise both Western and Russian/Chinese etc imperialism might be lemmy.dbzer0.com or slrpnk.net.
lemmy.ml is arguably one of the most imperialist instances especially in terms of censorship.

- Comment on I understand what Trump cares about, says Starmer 1 week ago:
did trump elect him? Because he’s doing more to please the dark money groups and far right facists than he is doing for the population.
Maybe that’s a comment on where the real power comes from in our world.
