@chessdojo.bsky.social considers fabi dead lost...

Interesting, didn't know this meaning of political alignment but im esl. To see if i got it correctly: if I propose X because of Y then someone who says we shouldn't do X because of neg(Y) is aligned (as both validate Y -> X), whereas someone who shares aim X, but with motivation neg(Y), is not?

I don;t follow, what do you mean by political alignment seperate from politics?

fwiw, I dont think the word kapo is appropriate because there is no systematic murder of jews happening.

I cannot see the original post/article but from the screenshot. I think the perspective is not one of failure/success but more about will to freedom/bravery/whatever.

brief summary of R1
in the open, pragg's win was the best of the three - a very interesting opening idea, and then calm increasing pressure after anish managed to stabilize, which eventually led to mistakes.
fabi will get over the near misses - a point is a point, but it's not his best ever effort.

Ik vond het er fijn uitzien maar heb geen smartphone. Benieuwd wat het nu wordt!

misschien praten we op een ander level of abstraction maar ik dacht dat je een morele claim maakte over het rechtvaardig zijn van iran bombarderen. Ik denk dat dat niet zo is omdat het niet werkt en meer leed veroorzaakt. cdn.bsky.app/img/feed_ful...

vind je dat we/de vs/een ander land israel (zouden) moeten bombarderen?

maar nog meer iraniers vermoorden helpt dan toch niet? als in, zou je willen dat nederland gebombardeerd wordt om demonstranten te 'steunen' als wilders oid aan de macht komt.

Repeat after me: being bombed to hell is not liberation or democracy. It is imperialism.
