It’s almost like they don’t know what they’re doing.

I understand how ridiculous it sounds, but it really does help.

A bidet. Once you’re comfy with it there is no going back.

The article is a PR puff piece. What Andy said made absolutely zero sense at the time, and even more so now. “…tables have completely turned.” Sir, the table is round and covered in shit. Always has been.

That is just one of many many reasons the Democrats lost, too many to count or even list in this post. You might want to also update the platform to not gobble the balls of the billionaires and corporate class. Abolish the electoral college, gerrymandering (though there were efforts on this front; poorly executed), lobbying, and Super PACs. Should’ve expanded the Supreme Court or instituted term limits.

Basically put in any effort whatsoever to show they wanted to prevent the loss of democracy and they didn’t do it. At least SAY things that would prevent genocide in Gaza, even if you don’t mean it. Start playing by the same rules as the Republicans and there could have been a chance.

It’s too late for any of that now.

I was in the same boat until a few days ago. I bought a used Pixel 6a for $68 USD and installed GrapheneOS on it.

It really is simple to switch it over, and buying the phone used means no money went directly to Google. I haven’t had any issues running any of the apps that I’m accustomed to, all in all a great decision.

Even suggesting REDACTED repulses the people who it would serve the most. Completely uninformed and lack of critical thinking.

********* see!

What about yours?

Linux Mint is terrific, also recommend it to new Linux users. I just want things easy, clean, and fast. Also, fuck Microsoft.

Debian + KDE

The creator of Zig is a dope dude, one of the best Killer Queen players to have played the game.

The billionaires have won, we are not getting the implementation of AI that helps us the most until we FIGHT the class war.

They are fucking losers, saved you a click.

This thread is everything I needed to convince me to leave instead of fight.

Absolutely and agreed. We need people much more adept than me at conveying this information to the people that need to hear it.

I encourage you to not be so black and white by your definition of “fighting”. I consider most* forms of resistance as fighting, not just violent ones. We’ll take whatever we can get as far as that is concerned, but you can’t deny that it will ultimately take physical resistance as well. Some have the capacity for both.

If you don’t plan to help at all then yes, might as well stick your head in the sand. It doesn’t matter if you pay attention or not if you don’t offer any form of resistance. Indifference is the default response for a significant portion of Americans and it’s a huge part of the problem.

The deck is stacked against us, no doubt. But we can look to historical examples of what happens if you don’t fight Nazis coming into power, and I refuse to be one of those examples.

There really are only two pragmatic options at this point. Fight or leave. Anything else is a waste.

Also true, those are the wrong targets. There’s a much more pragmatic approach.
