Maybe? I'm not sure if we want to pretend the fascists are on equal footing as the ones that actually believe in democracy. Good and evil do exist, and we should deplatform the evil

Yet another weird take

When people say things like this, I wonder if they understand how impossible it is. Google is not just a company. It is a 2 trillion dollar entity. Even if Google search entirely fails, it will still persist. At this point, you may as well say, "The wind needs to be ended." You don't end the wind. The wind already won. It will outlive you, me, and our children.

What we can do is protect against it. We can deal with it. We can contain it. We can redirect it and repurpose it to be helpful. But ending it? That doesn't happen.

Hey! So you may have noticed that you got downvoted into oblivion here. It is because of the unnecessary amount of negativity in your comment.

In communication, there are two parts - how it is delivered, and how it is received. In this interaction, you clearly stated your point: giving yourself the title of pro oftentimes means the person is not a pro.

What they received, however, is far different. They received: ugh this sweaty asshole is gatekeeping coding.

If your goal was to convince this person not to call themselves a pro going forward, this may have been a failed communication event.

Yeah man fuck Signal, they stabbed by dog the other day

Excellent decision sir, human rights are overrated anyway

Hey! So I very much understand wanting to take the side of people who are oppressed in some way.

I think a way to do this without supporting oppressive regimes is to specifically support the people, and not the government.

Your comment was unclear, and because of that people are taking it as you supporting the government of Iran. I think most sane people agree that they suck. The people though - they are some of the kindest people I have ever met, and do not deserve the violence that they have experienced.

Who attacked who again?

Dude every phone in Japan makes a horrible alert siren "Woop Woop" sound when there is an earthquake. Anyone who was accessing Twitter definitely 100% already knows there is an earthquake coming.

Oh shit, everyone this is big. This is the big one. On reddit, Reddit WAS Sync. It was why I started using reddit in the first place.

Now, Lemmy is Sync. Lets gooo

I'm a white guy with a big nose and a solid beard, and I get "random" TSA security checks just about every time I fly. It's almost as if there is a reason for all this
