You'd have to distinguish drag from others using drag neopronouns for fun and or profit. Drag thinks this would be fun for a while, if only to prove drags point dragself.

Did they ever use dragself? I bet they did. We'll never know now.

That's effectively impossible as a part of the nature of the fediverse. You could try banning alts on site but it's really not that hard to have a dozen alts waiting across host of instances.

The image says 16.7 for Taipei, not 6.7. neither my comment nor the image contains a 6.7.

Now you can argue all western and Eastern sources are undercounting nk and China, that's why I didn't even include nk given the natural mistrust of information from a country with less than 10k tourists a year; but any search of this info online shows the same trend: Chinese nationals dont commit suicide as often as their oppressed neighbors.

Except, you know, the secret service already let one shooter try.

You're almost definitely thinking of xiaomi, which almost always sell as unlockable carrier independent models.

Eliminating the US economy is indeed a good thing for the rest of the world but it's not that great of an action.

Hey it's the bi-quarterly "China is collapsing' article from random western business media. They've been wrong a hundred quarters in a row but this time I'm sure they're on to something.

Literally only in the US and Europe. Remove the profit motive and don't keep on inefficient construction companies and it's a quick process.

This suggests conservatives are secretly strong though. We know that's not the case.

They directly answered your question in its entirety.

The harm is simple, people get the illusion they're making a difference and that it's enough, it also legitimizes voting as the way to change things despite ample evidence it doesn't.

This leads to Dems hating protestors, or telling protestors to protest quietly and no in the road. This leads to liberals hating the working class when they go in strike, because why didn't they just vote for better conditions. It leads to liberals hating anything useful, because they already did the only 'useful' thing and voted.

This leads to lesser evilism and accepting institutions as the foundation of society, instead of any ideology that will positively change things.
