Words form sentences form paragraphs. You need to be able to hold more than one thought in your head to be able to comprehend an argument. You should try it.

If your reading comprehension is really that bad, it might explain the low quality of your opinions. You should probably try working on it instead of embarrassing yourself in public.

The kinds of things that some parents bully, punish, disown and/or murder their children for should very much be hidden from them if the child chooses to hide it. It’s no one else’s business and, if the child has not yet told them themselves, breaking their confidence is an attempt to ruin their life and quite possibly end it.

This is stochastic terrorism from this fascist government, desperate for any distraction at all from their kleptocratic ways.

Lots of lovely laws, none of them enforced. Liberals* are really very bad** at this game.

*in the political science meaning of the word, not the US colloquial meaning

**or good, depending on your perspective and/or the sincerity of their declared intent

It’s like a Calibri-fied version of Trebuchet. You can actually tell the difference between I and l without changing the font to check. It’s an improvement.

applied by centre left and liberals

It’s a term that originates with the left. Specifically, those who broke with the USSR over imperialist invasions, referring to those who did not. More broadly, it refers to the authoritarian left (as opposed to the anarchist left).

There is no family silver left, Thatcher and Blair sold it all. The only thing they can do is throw as much money as possible at rich people in the time they have left, secure in the knowledge that Starmer’s Labour will keep their seats warm without doing anything at all to stop the theft.

They probably will realise that 10 million is less than 1% of 1.6bn and that they can safely ignore people making shit up.

That’s not true. Instagram has 1.6bn users and all can use their Instagram logins to sign in to Threads. The roughly 1% who have signed up already have chosen to activate Threads, it’s not done automatically.

Thanks for this. Turns out they also made it hard to make anything other than Edge your default browser (you have to set it separately for each file extension). How to fix that here:

You don’t know what clutter is but you do have a very cool rabbit.

They’re almost certainly fash posing as Muslim.

You’re such a painfully obvious troll. Fuck off back to the fash sites you belong on.

He mocked a disabled former Twitter employee, Haraldur Thorleifsson, who has muscular dystrophy and uses a wheelchair, in a series of tweets on March 7, 2023 Thorleifsson had tweeted at Musk to ask if he was still employed at Twitter, after he lost access to his work computer along with 200 others. Musk accused him of doing no actual work, claiming a disability that prevented him from typing, and seeking a big payout 2 He also posted emojis and a link to a scene from Office Space to ridicule him.

Just to add to this, Thorleifsson had sold his company to Twitter but taken the payout as a salaried job so that he paid full taxes on it. The big payout if Musk sacked him was part of the deal to buy the company. Musk is willfully ignorant for every possible meaning of the term.

I have met enough far-left authoritarians who are openly racist, anti-lgbtq, and who advocated for violence against people solely based on their family background that I don’t think the extreme right has a monopoly on hate.

Yeah, they’re banned from lemmygrad. Rule 5:

1. No capitalist apologia / anti-communism.

1. No bigotry - including racism, sexism, ableism, homophobia, transphobia, or xenophobia.

1. Be respectful. This is a safe space where all comrades should feel welcome, this includes a warning against uncritical sectarianism.

1. No porn or sexually explicit content (even if marked NSFW).

1. No right-deviationists (patsocs, nazbols, strasserists, duginists, etc).

Fold, for sure. Actually pocketable, and secure once pocketed.

I have an e-ink tablet that runs Android. Copes with most apps and can deliver stuttery video.

E-Ink can’t be far off replacing glass screens (at least as an option) because the benefits for battery life are substantial. But I’d think it would replace them rather than be in addition to. A phone with screens on both sides would be so fragile.

You missing some context or something?

There is a really, really big difference between “we want to kill you” and “we do not want to be killed by you”.

Don’t tolerate fascists. However comfortable that centrist illusion is, you are signing your own death warrant and that of millions of others (most of whom will suffer the consequences of your actions long before they get around to the people who feel safe enough to argue that fascists must be tolerated).

An influential 1966 symposium at the University of Chicago reinforced this idea. Attended by 70 men and five women…

Oh.
