It’s a question of do we spend taxes on blacks and the poor, or do we spend it on cluster bombs for Ukraine.

I want someone to enlighten me on this, because my impression was that the democrats were the ones on board with bombing for Ukraine and republicans wanted to cut that spending (publicly, cause both parties love that war spending for their buddies to make money from).

I think have settled into what they know.

I think that iMessage is only prevelant in North America. Here in Europe (Portugal, at least), everyone uses Whatsapp.

In my personal experience, everyone who has an account with Signal also has with Matrix. The main issue for me is who has an account at all.

So what you’re saying is… you like the next Hitler mentor and want to see Jews and Black people burn?

I use it for linux. Recently there was a bug where if you had a chat opened, it would pin one core to 100% usage. It also lacks feature parity with the mobile client (ex: gif search and send).

The thing it’s missing the most is better multi device support and an updated desktop client.

For me, I think Matrix is more complete (specially since it backs-up your chats and media encrypted). The only thing it’s lacking (at least Element specific) is encrypted chat search support on mobile.

In this case, I believe that the clients will be signed by the big companies (Apple, Google Microsoft, etc) and these signatures are what will be trusted.

For instance, if you download Chrome, it will be signed by Google. But if you try to alter it in anyway, the signature will not be valid and the website won’t trust you anymore.

Yes yes, everyone famous you disagree is evil. Start making a list.

To me for something to be hateful, there needs to be intent to hurt behind it. In this case I believe he is just wrong and missguided.

But to each person different definitions, I guess.

The nyt link I couldn’t read because it’s paywalled.

The other link I do agree that he’s wrong about women’s oppression over time and I get that that’s why you call him a misogynist. To me, it seems he’s saying that women’s oppression was due to the constraints of the time period and not the active need of men to want to put women down. While I think he’s wrong I don’t think he hates women or thinks they’re inferior because of it. But the rest of the article is laughable. The reason people reject feminism and wokeness is not because of the need to maintain men in the pedestal of priviledge. It’s because it is hypocritical (tends to cherry pick issues and even subsets of issues) and because they hyperfocus on equality of outcome and not equality of opportunity.

Why is he a misogynist?

Also, I’m not saying men should cry less. I’m just saying that the people who tell men it’s ok to cry are usually the ones who get more bothered when it happens.

But when he cried and shared his emotions everyone teared into him because of it and just added it as another reason to make fun of him, so… was he really that wrong?

Oh please. The only thing a college professor would do is crack a skull of a person that is just talking about freedom with a bike lock and then run like the coward he is.

Within the context of the thread, it seemed to me that you were dismissing me implying that you don’t need proof of anything to call them nazis. Now I understand better that that wasn’t the intention and I’m sorry for it.

As for the uri, it’s https://exploding-heads.com/

Everybody in this post is calling the server nazis.

I went there and at least in the frontpage there were only edgy right wing memes and some normal posts. But no white supremacy stuff or something related to that.

So I asked if someone could show me the posts that made them call the server nazis. And instead of a reply, I only got downvotes. Because god forbid you ask people why they consider others nazis.

You’re right. Just call everybody the names you want regardless if they are accurate or not. If it’s fashionable enough it will stick everytime, so who cares right?

At least about the guided tours, everyone I saw talking about their experience resumed to “you do as you’re told and only go were they let you/guide you”. There is no freedom to go around and see actual people in their daily lives.

What were some of the absurd stories she told and how do you know they’re not real?

I’m asking this because it’s my understanding that it’s hard getting information from there for either side.

I did a quick check of the frontpage of the server and didn’t find anything that extreme. Can you show me some nazi related posts?

What if a person creates a new type of clothing that has high demand because it’s better than what exists before?

What if that person starts getting interest from other people who want the clothes and they try to trade currency (I’m not sure if in your communist system this exists, so consider other items people have or something) and then transactions start to happen?

What if the person gets so busy, he gets another person to help him with the trades in exchange for a fixed amount?

In which of these steps does it turn from “no one cares what you do with your own labor” to “give us your business or else”?
