Piefed: defederates from instances full of really obnoxious trolls

Obnoxious trolls: but, but, but, then how will we troll them? :(

You sound like the brainwashed masses. He, a billionaire, was much more qualified to determine if someone is fit to practice medicine than some institutional board. Obviously, otherwise he wouldn’t have been a billionaire.

Tesla hasn’t stopped making cars, they’ve stopped making the Model S and Model X. Both were higher-end models that don’t sell well now that the 3 and Y are available.

Musk’s a ketamine-addled pedo fascist shithead. There’s enough bad about him without adding misinformation to the pile.

People have been begging for big tech companies that rely on open source software to support development. Netflix finally did the dang thing.

More, please!

It is a mountain moving effort, though. Humans are deeply social creatures. Every thing that surrounds this guy has incentivized him to believe and behave in a way that keeps him part of the tribe. It’s safe to stay in line.

We do not know that he had no issue with the terrible things that happened. But we do know that the whole of American conservatism is set up to squash those doubts as soon as they come up. To keep everyone in line or face being ostracized.

He has not done enough, yet. But there is a huge difference between telling someone “yes, good, you’re starting to get it” and “fuck you, dude, you’re irredeemable.” There is certainly a core of shitheads that is irredeemable. But most people caught up in this think they’re doing the right thing.

Obviously they’re not doing the right thing. But they want to. Imposing day one ideological purity tests does not make it easier for them to change their minds about what the right thing is.

The person I replied to was effectively saying those people will never face justice. I am saying that if enough people say that out loud, it’s actually causing it to be true.

We still are. It’s ragged and on the verge of tipping over. But not yet. The way we ultimately lose is by enough people saying exactly what you just said.

And a future president was their defense lawyer.

The 5c was a 5 but in a new plastic shell. It wasn’t the new hotness even when it was new but I really enjoyed that phone. I wish they’d make another plastic one like that.

People in this thread if that happened: “Oh, he says he doesn’t like it, but he’s still running for governor as part of the republican party. He just wants his power and as part of the GOP he’ll always be compromised.”

Do you want a better world? Let people become better people instead of crushing their bones.

Cynicism sucks. It convinces people that it’s not worth trying. Including the person spreading it.

It’s always worth trying.

I was told they did planned obsolescence, though.

The Pixel 5a, released eight years after the iPhone 5s, stopped getting security updates a year and a half ago.

Half the country thinks he was actively defending himself from an active shooter. They’re wrong, obviously. But to suggest that social pressure should make him unrepresentable is ridiculous.

Yeah but those people actually believed things. Our people are sniveling shitheads whose beliefs only extend to the extent they can benefit from them.

Except Stephen Miller, maybe.

I cannot wait for every one of these people to stand in front of judges and try to weasel their way out of it.

Show me a consistent framework of justice where it was okay for John Adams to represent the guys who did the Boston Massacre but that guy (who is a shitbag who murdered someone) shouldn’t be represented.

I agree, he’s a murderer and should be prosecuted to the greatest extent of the law. But representation is part of that law.

How are so many people in this thread saying “yes, Trump bad” but also “I want to do exactly what Trump does but to other people instead”

Did you expect him to announce his party switch in the same announcement? Like, he’s taken the biggest stand of any republican politician so far. Yes, that isn’t good enough yet. But when people do something that’s in the right direction and you respond with “FUCK YOU” do you think that helps convince more people to do the same?

People in this thread: “This guy did something okay-ish, but I’ll only consider him to be a good person if he personally kills the president and then himself”

Little baby got booed at the UI-Miami game and doesn’t want to hear it anymore

I could usually hear the gasp.
