40 / M / Straight / INTP-T / Kalamazoo MI USA
I am here to help build and support vibrant communities not controlled by Big Tech that help others solve problems, examine new ways of thinking and improve their quality of life.
Take dividends and donate them to Fediverse servers. As your enemy gets stronger, so do you.
Sorry for the delay. Suffered another job loss a few months ago and had to work my second job like crazy. A couple accounts are in collections. I flew to see family in Japan, got another job and am looking at ways to boost my income and get ahead. No one’s going to do it for you.
With all due respect, there was Candace Cameron Bure…
I have a CS degree and spent a couple months in my backseat.
If I were Elon I would respond with a “Challenge Accepted” and start floating balloons with access points.
Foot stomp: OP, YOU AREN’T OBLIGATED. You might owe your creditors, but you DO NOT owe one single, solitary iota to anyone who writes news.
You are on a Reddit clone. You have your feed. Anything important will appear there.
We’re all pulling for ya.
I focus on one thing at a time in my sphere of influence.
Those who love this kitschy schlock think it’s innovative.
Pop and stadium country are no different.
Despite the fact that Hamas hides amongst innocent civilians?
That’s a shame, because that’s how freedom of speech functions. It’s also a great way to show the world the higher road one chooses to walk when their opponents refuse.
There’s a difference between thinking of something and doing it. Many leftists dream of punching conservatives in the face but only a few of them actually do. The ones who refrained do not rate punishment from the government over a thoughtcrime.
Please don’t play such behaviors off as if they’re exclusively exhibited by conservatives. There’s plenty of said behavior by those identifying as progressives as well.
Everyone is responsible for their own actions and behaviors. Cancelation happens both ways. Its occurrence or lack thereof can be influenced but ultimately not controlled by the subject person.
I’m glad we agree that win/win situations exist, that life isn’t a zero-sum game as George Carlin (tongue-in-cheek, I hope) suggests in “Free-Floating Hostility.”
Thank you for your respectful explanation.
I must point out, however, that those in the community the dissenter joins don’t necessarily change their views, either. If we’re going to hand out blame, then it’s a double-edged sword.
So wait til they start killing people openly before we identify their ideology as dangerous?
You illustrate my point. Whether or not an ideology is dangerous is besides the point.
You’re blocked
That’s how the left exercises “tolerance” towards those of opposing views. Again, you illustrate my point.

No, you don’t, but at that point you are no longer truly “tolerant.”
When you can’t argue the point, attack the man.

The issue with the tolerance paradox is it gives way to thuggery once those with the most power decide what their idea of “tolerance” will and will not actually tolerate. That’s why we have a Bill of Rights. Call it intolerant, but name something that actually tolerates more (not just “progressive” or anarchist vlaues).
@bjoern_tantau I’ll keep that name in mind for the next account I create. In the meantime, which would be better?
