The atomic unit of propaganda is emphasis. If you force people to stop posting "political" memes in the main memes space then you are implicitly taking the stance is that "non-political" memes are normal and "political" memes are the other. Everyone intuitively understands that being othered is not desirable because the advocates for separation are not the ones volunteering to create their own apolitical memes space, they're trying to get political memes ejected from the mainstream space.
Of course this isn't literal segregation, but the arguments for separation basically all boil down to "go to this separate but equal space and stay there" so if they don't want to be compared to people who historically made the same argument, they should try coming up with a different argument.
I don't think I've seen anyone with a problem with the computing concept itself, they have a problem with the unnecessarily unpleasant and offensive nomenclature. There's lots of ways to express a leader/follower dynamic that's intuitively understandable. Hell, call them Dom/Sub drives if you want to.
There's just no good reason to invoke historical attrocity that's still ongoing to describe a concept like this.
You're right. Wanting people who make you uncomfortable to go to their own area so that you don't have to see them or think about their political grievances has no parallels with segregation.
Exactly! Just like how nobody was saying Rosa Parks couldn't ride the bus. She would have gotten to her destination anyway had she just ridden at the back like we requested!
China's stated reason for the sanctions is a policy of a de-nuclearized Korean peninsula. In theory, if the DPRK got nuclear weapons without Chinese opposition, there's nothing China can then say if the ROK pursued nuclear weapons in response.
Western presenters rarely allow an interviewee to speak for so long uninterrupted if the guest is saying something against the accepted Western narrative. Dude was either in shock to too mad to talk.
Japan is currently dumping contaminated water from the Fukushima reactor into the Pacific and will continue to do so for 30 years.
