They can do whatever they want.

I don’t care what other people do, I just ignore people I don’t think are worth failing with.

And yeah pass judgement if you want, but how I choose to deal with people on the internet is up to me.

Ok, buddy

I usually just ignore them.

I find that a lot of crazy right wingers do it to “own the libs” or get a rise out of their supposed enemies. It’s all just a sports game to people like that.

If you ignore them they get bored and stop being so staunch in their awful beliefs. When you fight with them it makes them feel like they’re right. You end up forcing them to rationalize every shitty position.

Almost nobody posts on the internet trying to challenge and reconsider their beliefs, so it’s not like you’re going to change their mind anyway.

I mean that’s what I think, at least

Complicated issues are complicated. Neither Reddit, lemmy, Twitter (x?), nor any social media platform is particularly well suited towards discussing complex decisive topics.

I mean if you want to be all sensible about it, sure.

It’s just a tool. The real scam is that the 1% pay such a low share of their actual income (including capital gains)

“In collectives” gives me big brave new world vibes.

Bruh, reddit was created in search of capital. It grew and attracted communities in search of capital.

Reddit wouldn’t have existed otherwise.

So I understand total capitalism as an entirely market driven economy with no government influence

And total communism as an entirely planned and government prescribed economy

And socialism as some of the economy is market driven and some government planned.

After 10+ years doing go, js, and ruby, my company is moving me to a Java spring team.

I’ve been looking at baeldung tutorials to get up to speed with spring and reactor and it’s been a pretty good resource.

Okay, buddy

I’m not saying ads are perfect, but they’re not the thing that’s strangling and ruining the internet. They’ve always been a part of it.

But also like any website can run arbitrary code like that. Most ad platforms don’t allow their customers to just have arbitrary js.

I was talking about Linux specifically because it’s under the GPL license. Threads isn’t open source at all afaik, so it doesn’t really apply
