In Stallman’s particular case he even substantiated his view on pedophilia with very good arguments

No, he didn’t, because none exist. Don’t defend pedophiles.

What do you mean? He did step in, understood absolutely no context of the issue, told everyone to shut up, and then left without any real input. Fucking joke

Drag was a well-known user

Troll. The word is troll, not user. Drag has never been here in good faith, and good fucking riddance. They make the trans community look lesser for their association

Finally, the anti-trans troll falls out of favor.

If that’s the goal, you announce tariffs are coming in a few years so that people scale up local production to avoid the higher costs.

In this case, there was like 4 months notice where all of it was undefined, so of course nobody did anything and now we still don’t have local production. Now, prices will go up and local producers (if they even build up) will match the new prices instead of keeping them low.

Congrats, worst of both worlds! We still have no local production and prices have gone up! Yay!

I mean… have you not seen the photo ops and donations from him explicitly supporting nazis? 🤷‍♂️ not sure what to tell you, bud, but you can believe your eyes

What do you mean capitalism is doing capitalist things?!? That so unexpected and completely unheard of!

It’s almost as if our government is against regulations as a whole, and this administration is making it even worse!

Meta? Zuck has been extremely supportive of the nazis in power so far

And these social media outbursts aren’t accomplishing what they think they’re accomplishing.

I’m extremely technical, but not actively into Linux, though I’ve set up various distros dozens up times. These posts have driven me away from Linux in an extremely hard way - anyone with opinions like the Kernel team simply don’t deserve support, and Linus is clearly past his prime and making bad decisions. This has shown me that Linux is going to (likely already has) slowly stop improving due to its explicitly anti-progress leadership. Until a fork with good leaders manages to take a real market share, the OS will stagnate.

I’m sure this is a minority opinion, but to claim that the social media blitz hasn’t had its intended effect is objectively false. Fuck the kernel team.

You can either face reality or not, literally nobody cares about your opinion on the matter. Many people who don’t join lemmy say this, that is simple fact.

…huh? Bug bounty payouts are not even remotely rare in either the industry as a whole or Google specifically.

You believe one thing and I believe another. Why don’t you take your head out of your ass and look around? Nobody seriously believes that nobody is struggling right now.

I really don’t believe that’s anywhere remotely close to true.

Awwww, someone went as far as making an alt to attack people instead of defend themselves! It’s almost as if what I said is true and you can’t argue against it, only deflect 🤔

Specifically authoritarian communists, to be clear. They aren’t fighting for everyone to have what they need, they just want to be leaders of repressed people.

It’s 2025, $710 is pocket change for anyone who can still afford to eat.

I bet j_s_0e6b87 has eggs at every meal

I haven’t been proud to be an American in a long time. We were looking for a house, now we’re debating if leaving is safer.

This country is doomed, and everyone who voted Trump deserves to burn in the fires they helped create. Fuck em, I have literally no sympathy left.

I’m not arguing for or against blahaj, just your description of “not alienating people,” which is objectively false and you clearly agree.

And yeah; I don’t respect people who make a joke of other people’s existence. I don’t care what their motivation is, drag makes the rest of the community seem lesser for their trolling.

Awww, the poor widdle baby can’t handle actual arguments because their entire ideology is based on how they feel when they vote instead of actual outcomes or lives

Blahaj not alienating people? Did we miss the whole “ban everyone who doesn’t support drag, the anti-trans troll” saga?
