Legal eagle on YouTube and nebula has a recent video on this very subject. Short form? It's over.

Vote as if there weren't two full sets of electors insulating you from the actual outcome.

Funny thing is, I did neither of those things the last time I had need to install; the script handled it for me.

Today I learned that simply allowing somebody else to be and look like they want to is privilege. Pray tell, kind being, how does one avoid this sort of privilege? Should I be pushing my opinion on everything with ears?

Pretty slim pickings there, but I can't especially disagree. The point of the question really was to allow the poster to explain a very specific implication they made.

[–] freewheel@lemmy.world 1 points 1 month ago

Yep. And I'm not against going to basic lynx when needed. But the person I responded to made a very specific implication, and I'd like their opinion.

Allow me to expand my point. If you are using a computing device of any type, you are using the fruits of the labor of IBM, Xerox, and AT&t from the 1950s and 1960s. That means, by your argument, you are glorifying racism, homophobia, sexual assault and xenophobia among other things. You should definitely get off the internet.

What do non-trumpets but still privacy focused people in your circles use?

[–] freewheel@lemmy.world 1 points 1 month ago

I might suggest getting off the internet and finding a completely self-sufficient lifestyle then. I guarantee you there are people that you would disagree with in person, in every supply chain.

It's not technically an arrest. In a high-stakes call, the police will typically detain everybody until they can figure out what's going on. That means potential victims as well as potential attackers. It's a safety measure.

Just a thought... How likely are you to grow the community when six of the top 10 active posts right now are in some way complaints about Lemmy? In other words, is this a pro-vegan community or is this an anti-Lemmy community?

For the record, I am perfectly happy to get my vegan content elsewhere- ban away.
