please let us make bad choices and don't talk about why they're bad

People said the same thing about gay marriage. There's a difference between having a conversation about choices, and harassing anyone who disagrees with you.

My browser choice doesn't affect you, so kindly stfu and mind your own business.

there's a term for appropriating the struggle of an oppressed group the way you just did, but I can't remember what it is. Anyway - I feel like you're assuming everyone is talking about you when we're not... If we don't like something that you like, you can just mind your own business...?

If there's a post about someone doing something bad, and people talk about how bad it is, but you think it's good, are we all supposed to stop talking about it because you showed up?

To be clear, I don't think this post is the problem. The article, while I disagree, is fine. It's OK to talk about the issues with Brave.

What is not OK is replying "stfu chromium shill" every time someone brings up a reason that maybe Brave isn't all that bad, and then harassing them if they reply back. Obv you're not doing that, so this comment isn't directed at you.
