if you don’t want to be assaulted.

you don’t have to apologize, that’s not my point. in fact i want you to quietly think about how what you said before, and just now might be wrong til it hits home for you.

i know it seems like im baiting an answer. its the net, arguing is fun, nothing’s stopping you from replying, but I’m being straight with you. stop victim blaming. you’re not stupid, im not saying you are. *please, stop. it only helps the oppressor, and we’re all getting stomped by that boot.

i want you to know im not tryina bust your chops specifically. sure, i picked your comment to reply to, but it’s nothing personal.

I’m also speaking broadly to the room, reminding everybody what we already know; that how we look at pervasive surveillance n how we got to live under it is absolutely broken.

i’d like to point out that it shouldn’t be on women (or anyone) to be on constant guard against attacks on their privacy.

yes, it is the state of the world, but the attitude of your comment is victim blaming.

let’s not forget that while we on Lemmy may be aware of the danger of mass surveillance tech, we’re not the majority.

snowden told us years ago how fucked everything is, and surveillance has only grown since then. let’s not forget that it is not normal that corpo data-mining is the norm (along with included de-facto warrantless surveillance). Even though we all should be better, nobody should have to be as careful as we are.

hell, let’s be real. As long as we use a smartphone, we’re not being careful enough either.

i want a stupid fridge that is sturdy (damn you plastic shelves n drawers!) and keeps my food cold. also it should last 50+ years.

i know it’s possible cuz my mom still has her '57 frigidaire

care to clarify who you mean by ‘leftist’?

tanked

nice pun cuz iirc he was riding in one while wearing that helmet

I think this is okay because they are outing themselves

only if there’s an accompanying expansion of the 187(og) initiative

perfect

turn off your adblocker and it finds you

prude

• so you can save on tech support costs, or your techie friend’s free time

• because you aren’t really bothered by Microsofts stuff

• because though people are saying it’s easy you will run into problems and i think you’d be happier not dealing with those

• tho im teasing you some im mostly serious. until you care enough, (and i don’t think you do) it’s honestly not worth the headaches you’ll have

i can’t believe I’m saying this but you should stay with Windows.

trickle down economics lessons. Reagan was right all along

when you put it in those terms, i tend to agree.

im only saying that if ya take ops statement “always has been” to mean “for longer than you’ve been living” then it’s nitpicky to bring up what the party was — in response to a joke meme comment — before anyone here was even born.

but it’s not like we disagree or anything, nor did op explicitly say that. it was just my own readin.

have a good one
