Yea with a larger chance of a bad trip.

Capitalism. Not tech.

Sadly ‘should’ and ‘reality’ are in a bitter divorce in our timeline because far too many people cannot distinguishing between reality and the chemicals floating about in their head making them believe impossible things.

rofl no. The only thing threatening the Windows PC market is Microslop.

You know why: Easy money.

I mean, he’s right. The people who blissfully post everything online to a for-profit platform that only cares about privacy as far as they profit from ignoring it are dumb fucks.

Yea, I mostly said it as that was the context of the convo from, “go back to reddit”. Really, “telling someone off” politely and with info is hardly telling them off at all.

10 out of 10 times I’d rather the clout go to people like cart narc over pieces of shit like Jack Doughytree Azmongold.

It’s the HOA Karens that run politics, so you do the math on how well that’d work out.

Which is exactly why it shouldn’t be condoned or supported.

When your motivation doesn’t extend past stupid ape brain, you’re doing it wrong.

Most people that actually know what they’re talking about fully and completely understand that voting is hardly even the start of corrective action, let alone the full solution…

and what happens when a mod or admin abuses their power? If the answer is only people whine about it, all you have is a minor step in the right direction and not an actual solution.

Nah, this was a bit nebulous of a discussion since the original comment wasn’t exactly spelling out their intent.

After a few more replies, it looks like they weren’t trying to say bad ideologies should be tolerated in any form, more of just saying the, “go back to reddit” stuff is indeed stooping to a low that only the too intolerant use.

In the off-chance that someone is merely parroting bigotry/ideology that they were awash in and don’t truly believe, it is always better to tell them off in ways that don’t tokenize and reduce them to a charicature of the ideology. Especially don’t dismiss them in ways that allow them to dismiss you just as easily. “Go back to reddit” is tokenizing your own response, which just fuels division and enlightens noone.

Because this is hardly a contentious discussion or topic, and something doesn’t have to be a guarantee to never the less be a trend…?

Yes, though as the person you’re responding to is trying to point out, using the Paradox of Tolerance to tolerate the intolerable because of some appeal to hypocrisy is exactly not how to use the paradox of tolerance.

While hypocrisy is an important part of the lessons to take from it, the hypocrisy parts are supposed to be about not stooping to their level in the process of not tolerating them as opposed to having to tolerate them.

But that is unironically reddit behavior to use such insulting and dismissive language rather than saying… “such talk is not welcome here”.

Immaturity shouldn’t be acceptable, even from the “correct” opinion holder.

I think we should test this theory a little more.

It really doesn’t. At all.

Only because politicians and judges are too stupid to actually enforce the constitution… It’s already supposed to trump any law like QE even if it’s on the books.
