People who fetishize self defense carry will always have loaded and unlocked guns in the house because they are afraid of someone breaking in at any moment and they might need to play John Wick: Home Edition. Those kinds of people also teach gun safety because they think responsible handling of firearms is important.
They just don't understand that accidents are far more likely than a home invasion, and children are children even if they are taught gun safety.
That's fine. I will either continue to use adblockers, pay, or stop using the internet outside of what is required to function in society. I already refuse to use anything that has decided to go ad supported without the ability to block ads and has a price I'm not willing to pay.

Yes, OP said all advertising. You mentioned the main problems with ditching all advertising. I added to the conversation with a poasible middle ground that addressed the worst parts.

The Shitposting argument style is the
disruption in online conversations, usually of
significant issues of discourse such as political and social issues, by making proofless and inflammatory claims that derail the conversation. The arguments are just

genuine beliefs and move the conversation to
an irrelevant discussion.
Shitposting is just the new name for trolling after trolling was changed to mean online bullying.
A swiping motion and muscle memory for tapping are two different things. It took a while to get fast with my thumbs even though I type fairly fast on a keyboard.
Even educated people are vulnerable to misinformation on topics for which they are not experts, and propaganda is a numbers game. Socialism is a better scaling economic system because it basically creates a lot of small communities (workers who own the company). Democracy scales better than anarchy because it creates a system for the decision making of anarchy that wouldn't be possible for more than a few hundred people. Both also have downsides, but handle scaling issues better than the other options.
Hey, he showed a bunch of manilla folders with stacks of papers that were totally not blank props and lied about divesting or whatever from his private companies that were a clear conflict of interest thrpighout his presidency. That totally counts!
