No i am just able to see the difference between a scam, and the technology used for a scam. Its simple, just like you.

They are a piece of technology. Its extremely weird to call tech a scam. Thats like saying landline telephone is a scam because its covered in spam calls, that doesnt really reflect the technology itself.

NFT’s are a neat technology, its a real shame people only recognize those stupid fucking monkeys as what an NFT is. I suppose it doesn’t help that the ways in which an NFT could be used never really happened. Would be amazing to see NFT’s change the ticket selling/scalping market.

It’s worse than that, it’s a malicious dismantling of government agencies who could stand in the way of capitalists making our lives worse to become richer than anyone has any right to be. It’s not stupidity, it’s a game plan. This is always what the right meant by small government, small so rich have no objectors with power.

My instinct would be to think that they do that too, but at a much slower speed, and are less aware of how they got there. So when you explain a train of thought clearly the speed which u topic switched and the number of times it happened feels overwhelming to them. We also tend to intellectualize a lot of stuff and others do not, so they have probably never internally studied how their own thoughts connect before, so it would seem forieng when explained.

But I’m speaking from instinct here, no evidence.

Congress. Oh you said corporations, not their property, my bad.

Get a call blocker app, tell it to block every single phone call, whitelist your contacts. If they are not in your contacts, but its important, they will leave a message.

Try to get a quick lunch, sit down to eat, asshole in corner listening to tiktok at full volume, imagine murdering this pos through the entire meal.

Make them poor so Trumps daddy can take them? who knows anymore.

Do you know any regular people? Most people I know have never even heard the word fediverse.

Yeah the idea is ultimately that you help enable the system by participating. Ultimately nothing changes by a couple cheap assholes refusing to tip like this guy, so you should, it would only work if everyone decided not to. It would force the industry to adapt.

You need to be “i own several politicians” level of rich before it helps

Definitely get therapy, everyone should. Also don’t avoid socializing while u work on yourself In therapy, dual path it!

I feel like I’m having a conversation with a speak and spin that has one response lol

No, it doesn’t fight fascism. If you have a socialist country there are things about the system that inherently make it harder for fascism to pop up, but this is prevention. Also if fascism is already in your country, socialism isn’t doing a god damn thing because it doesn’t exist.

Socialism is preventative care on a healthy or mildly sick system, it is not the major surgery needed to remove active cancer.

This needs to be made more visible on github, like a little tag near all the share data under about. But I guess the only way that would work was people self reporting their CLA’s. And not sure how keen microsoft would be on a consumer protection change

Over 20 years ago I started to see the many problems with the world. Over the course of those ~20 years I saw more and more problems begin, none of them are ever resolved. There was a point where I believed I wouldn’t live long enough to see the full ramifications, but now it seems like those problems are compounding faster and faster.

How would you determine if a thing is true open source, or capitalism masquerading as open source like you’ve described, if you were to just stumble onto a software randomly and wanted to check?

How does this fix a two party system that does not represent the people?

This would be a goal, socialism is not an action to fight fascism.
