Rules

Any drama must be posted as an observer, you cannot post drama that you are involved with.
When posting screenshots of drama, you must obscure the identity of all the participants.
The poster must have a credible post and comment history before submitting a piece of history. This is to avoid sock-puppetry and witch hunts.

The usual instance-wide rules also apply.

Chronicle the life and tale of the fediverse (+ matrix)

Largely a sublemmy about capturing drama, from fediverse spanning drama to just lemmy drama.

Includes lore like how a instance got it's name, how an instance got defederated, how an admin got doxxed, fedihistory etc

(New) This sub's intentions is to an archive/newspaper, as in preferably don't get into fights with each other or the ppl featured in the drama

Sorry about the flu.

As for your comments, I disagree that the doc I linked is dishonest, manipulative, or misinformation. They didn't need to poach from the politburo to look at the structure of the USSR, Americans like Pat Sloan already went to the USSR and reported on how it functioned (not to the CIA, but in general). Archival evidencen we have today backs up the claims made in the doc as well.

I must have failed to convey what I meant. What bothers me is actually framing the report as what it isn't, not how close to the truth it is. Honestly, if you said something like "the CIA was already collecting comments on what life under Stalin was in the fifties", I wouldn't take issue with it.

I'm genuinely too pooped to entertain you any longer, but beware, I'll be there next time 🤓
