Do you hear that Linux users?
There's only one Firefox, there's fucktonnes of Linux Distros. I am even willing to move to fucking Arch if push comes to shove.
American Evangelicals: THE RAPTURE IS COMING AND THE TRIBULATION IS NIGH!
Jehovah's witnesses: THEY ARE COMING FOR US, THEY'RE COMING FOR US BECAUSE WE'RE WITNESSES!
Mormons: WE'RE GONNA NEED THE FOOD STORES WE WERE TOLD TO MAKE, JUST YOU WAIT!
Scientists: Climate Change will lead to everything going to shit if we don't do shit now.
All of them together: BULLSHIT!
The picture feels AI generated
Ok ok ok, I'm going to lay this out for you.
Elon Musk wants people like me dead. They cannot be convinced otherwise and be giving them the time of day to try convince them not to kill me is, genuinely, a waste of time. They have made up their mind and believe that I am irredeemable.
His ideology itself is a declaration of the will to kill people, this isn't a case of "his opinion", his ideology in itself declares people like me unworthy of a happy, healthy and full life.
Wishing harm upon people like these is an act of self defense, not an act of wanton cruelty.
Right right so DEI just means "anyone not white, male and cishet".
Teachers can make this backfire by teaching kids about how Jesus said, among other things:
All things republicans hate because it goes against their ideals. Also they can talk about how in Acts it says Christians lived communally or just read James 5:1-6 verbatim.
But I guarantee the schools will force their teachers only to read parts of the bible that the state demand, because it's not about Christianity, it's about using religion to control people.
Listen, if I had a kid who turned punk I'd be glad because as subcultures go punk is pretty based.
Oh they understand people fuck, and the people who want to ban abortion and contraception want people to have kids they didn't want for various reasons.
That's basically the idea behind these laws.
Conservatives want to make porn illegal, which isn't easy under traditional means, so they're taking the "Putin" approach as I put it, make viewing porn hard, unattractive or even dangerous and make delivering porn to people hard, unattractive and dangerous.
Requiring an ID from the government to view porn means the government can tell who is watching what. If one of those people happens to run for office or get a little too campaigny, their porn history can be named and shamed.
And porn providers know this, and know that will drive people away from their sites, and on top of this implementing this will likely be bureaucratic and likely expensive, so they'll stop serving an area.
And when this is applied to non porn sites that have porn like Reddit or twitter or Tumblr, well guess what's going to happen, those sites will ban porn from their site.
It's basically banning porn by making it impossible to get porn in a way that doesn't end up with you getting blackmailed. Children have nothing to do with it.
I say this a lot but get Firefox.
They're using child safety as an excuse to pass this bill, which is funny because criminals don't tend to care about the law and thus will just move to (now illegal) encrypted services.
It's doubly interesting because Boris Johnson (the former prime minister and head of the party who came up with this bullshit) is literally hiding behind the fact he can't find the passcode for his encrypted WhatsApp messages to stop the COVID enquiry seeing evidence he has in regards to how COVID was handled, and members of his party, who proposed this bill, are saying it's an attack on democracy that he hands over these encrypted messages.
In short, the government is coming for YOUR encryption but they'll keep using it to keep info they don't want you to know, thank you very much!
First they said men should not be able to feel sadness or affection, now they are taking away Joy. Soon, men will only be able to feel blind, unspeakable rage.
