VoIP.ms?

It's what I use. I'm not sure of making phone calls, though.

It also doesn't work. I can't use telegram because I have a number that I originally got from project fi, back when it was project fi. Eventually I moved cell providers and I migrated the phone number that I got with Project Fi. As such, a real number that I've had for over a decade looks like a voip range number, even though it isn't anymore and hasn't been for a long time.

Reddits bullshit is the end case for ANY product or service that is not FOSS.

You should care, or else you will go through reddit all over again and again.

Don't forget delta chat.

Not the official fediverse, but in really excited by delta chat.

What two groups of people invaded Cambodia to remove Pol Pot, again?

What were the political ideologies of the two groups that did so?

Fucking Alan Dershowitz calls himself a liberal.

Does that mean he is?

No.

Nor was he ever, even when he was considered in the in-group with liberals. He's always been a right wing crank.

What you call yourself is not a useful description of the political philosophy you hold. It just describes which tribe you consider your own, for most people.

This is why. Well, this is one of the reasons.

First, we have extremely few liberals in America. The Democratic party is mostly made up of people that would be best described as center-right anywhere else in the world. They don't actually want to fight to roll back changes that Republicans make, and actually try to internally sabotage the few members that do want to undo changes the republicans make. They actively prevent change, and then active work against those who do want change all while professing to want change and to do their best to fight for it. But they're lying, and people are catching on. People are even starting to realize that the whole "We'd do stuff for you if it wasn't for that bad bad manchin, and Sinema" thing is as much of a lie, too.

The second reason that is more for the communists is something along the lines of the old joke "Scratch a liberal, and a fascist bleeds" Communists don't like liberals (And the use of the word liberal is pretty different from the usage in the first case) because they view them as people that profess to want these better for others, until it requires any, even minor, amounts of sacrifice from the liberal. The whole Moderate Rebels thing in Syria? It was always a lie for one simple reason. Fighting is an extreme action. Moderates don't fight, they just don't. That's one of the reasons they're moderates. Liberals are like communists that aren't willing to fight or do what is necessary to enact change.

I like how it seems most people are missing your joke.

I got it.

This is the best! I've wanted openboard but with swiping for a long time. I can't believe I missed this. Thank you!

What do you mean about a specific group that targets it?
