My somewhat informed take is that it mostly “doesn’t work like that” given the relay model. It isn’t a great structure for secure, private messaging. Why? Mostly because notes are all public, DMs too - just with their content encrypted. Being public means anyone can see and save them forever. And given “forever” timescale the encryption would need to be… well… infinitely secure.

Probably part of a defensive strategy to keep users from going to properties that don’t belong to Meta and keep the messenger business unprofitable for others. If all those users went to some other company’s product then that company might figure out how to make money and come at Facebook. Or just tarnish the brand.

“At most, a newspaper might decide not to publish such information, but to help jail the leaker? It’s nuts.”
One wonders how it’d play out if the leaker brought the documents to them as a source. Is the glee at helping catch him because leak-publishing is their business? I just can’t imagine them behaving the same way if they were able to boost pageviews, personal prestige, and maybe some awards off the guy.

Allowing (not requiring) teachers and admin to qualify to carry at school might have an interesting game theory effect insofar as you’d never know who is armed - like air marshals.

Indeed. And a strong understanding of “their truth” is the concept here I’d argue against. The fact of multiple claims doesn’t tell us anything about the claims per se.
1+1=1
1+1=2
1+1=3
It doesn’t matter how many people claim any of those is true or false as regards the truth of the claims themselves. We also don’t have to investigate any of these claims to be able to say that at most only one of them can be true.

Oh sure, I’m not, here, making a claim for any particular universal truth - just defending the idea of such a claim at all!

2023-04-16 16:48:17 UTC

- reply

A universal claim is either universally true or universally false. Claims like “there is an omnipotent being” or “a spirit is woven into the fabric of nature” are universal claims, and whether you or me or anyone knows the truth of them doesn’t change that they are in fact either true or false universally.

2023-04-16 16:32:27 UTC

- reply

Ah, sure. A lot of variation based on circumstance etc. is perfectly reasonable. I imagine nearly everyone can agree on that. For me, it’s good to be married to my wife but obviously that specifically is not true for every other human. Or at the very least it can’t be true for my wife who can’t marry herself. 😆 anyway, the point remains that in a certain way “being married to gregorius’ wife is good true for gregorius but not her”
But you go too far if you use the word “humans” in a way that defines us from other things and yet do not think we have a shared nature about which a great many things are true (or false) for all of us.
Certainly many claims under the umbrella of spirituality are either true for all or false for all. It is illogical to hold that there is an omnipotent being for you but not for me. Or that “we are all one being” is true for me but not you. These are universal claims to truth and there’s no way around it.

Prayer Against Sloth
by St. Pius X Sarto
Glorious St. Joseph, model of all who are devoted to labor, obtain for me the grace to work in the spirit of penance in expiation of my many sins; to work conscientiously by placing love of duty above my inclinations; to gratefully and joyously deem it an honor to employ and to develop by labor the gifts I have received from God, to work methodically, peacefully, and in moderation and patience, without ever shrinking from it through weariness or difficulty to work; above all, with purity of intention and unselfishness, having unceasingly before my eyes death and the account I have to render of time lost, talents unused, good not done, and vain complacency in success, so baneful to the work of God. All for Jesus, all for Mary, all to imitate you, O patriarch St. Joseph! This shall be my motto for life and eternity. Amen
