I want to know how “transgenderism” is trying to take away their freedom. Like, I know it’s fabricated nonsense, but I’d like to know what they even think the danger is. Do they think that there’s a trans agenda to round up cis people and force them to get sex changes? Like what even is the logic.

We are products in an illusion of freedom made by false individuality created by consumption of the things that are offered by “the machine” used for escapism of existentialism?

Do what now?

If you packed me like that with other humans, I would probably get pretty hangry and start taking bites out of the person next to me.

Here we go

I think the name for that variety is Granny Smith. The reason why it isn’t called “Granny-Smith-flavored candy” will be left as an exercise for the reader.

No, it’s Aluminum of America.

Your mother took my load lmao

It’s the name of another precious metal with one letter removed. Star Trek writers are so lazy.

Do they think that “conspiratorial” means “believing in conspiracy theories”? Because it doesn’t.

Or it was just a weird network issue. A week is a long time, though.

Same on FireDragon with Garuda.

There are speech police in the real world. Workplaces don’t allow you to use slurs or to harass your co-workers. That’s just one example. In fact, any social group that I can think of will punish you for saying something. Some are more lenient than others, but every one has a line that you cannot cross.

No newsgroups? No IRC?

Tbf, having a central authority dictate the truth to you ain’t so great.

I don’t think the phrase “third-party fact checkers” (plural) implies a central authority.

Neither is having classes of people who you aren’t allowed to offend.

Facebook can’t stop you from offending people. What they can do is make it slightly more difficult by disallowing slurs, etc.

I suppose I shouldn’t say anything bad about Nazis, either, since the GOP gets compared to Nazis? Give me a break. Maybe instead of listening for dog-whistles, they should look into why those comparisons are being made in the first place.

I remember some YouTuber ranting about this. About how none of these people yelling about how their favorite games are going woke are actual players. I don’t have any evidence either way, but it wouldn’t surprise me if a lot of these folks are just random alt-right wingnuts trying to stir shit up. (Or nowadays AI wingnuts.)

It’s mental illness!

“I don’t care if I get dirt in my mouth, but I better not get it in my hair.”

I love Arch, but it is not for beginners. WiFi and Bluetooth are both sketchy. Or, at least, they used to be.

If they aren’t worried about dirt, I doubt that they’re gonna be worried about spit or piss.
