I think it’s because now that mickey mouse is public domain people can use him however they want which pisses off disney, a corporation, and this post is anti corporation.

don’t really see how

i just switched to firefox with ublock origin, it took a bit of getting used to but no real issue. Also started using thunderbird because microsoft pushing outlook (pay or have ads at the top of your inbox) and getting rid of their free mail app pisses me off, seems like big software companies are just getting bolder with their anti consumer practices.

is a new york times subscription just an assumed possession for using the internet?

it’s a little bit more objective that “claiming moral superiority”, as one side does a lot more harm than the other

the first stereotype you mentioned is a lot more harmful, and targets minority groups or people that faced lots of oppression through history so there’s an existing power dynamic that they reinforce, whereas the classic truck driving republican is a much more represented group that has never faced historic discrimination.

Another reason is that politically, their right wing ideology is definitively also a lot more harmful to many people as the core of right wing ideology is power through oppression, and so mimicking the forms of oppression they enact on others is somewhat empowering for less represented and less powerful groups.

That’s my impression of it at least

but no problem making 2 metre tall pickup trucks that are designed to kill pedestrians with ease, be unable to see children at all and blind drivers going in the opposite direction
