    There's plenty of angry reactions to go around for everyone around here.

    Here arguments don't go in circles so much.

    A: we should abolish the police

    B: no they perform useful services!

    A: like what, exactly?

    B: like killing undesirables!

    A: [this is where I just stop replying because they've proven my point]

    At least you can appreciate that humans aren't designed to keep the conversation going forever.

    Police interact with people on some of the worst days of their lives. They are also an entry point to an adversarial legal system and sometimes decide to kill you.

    Uh oh nuance to go in circles around!

    A lot of the time what makes those days the worst of someone's life is, you know, the near-irresistable force pursuing them with guns and chains and a high resolution global surveillance network

    I avoid cops like the plague but I’m not kidding that a significant number of people call in and invite police to a situation over the dumbest shit you can imagine.

    This is a shit post community btw so I’m not trying to engage in real argument about the scale of police or whether they should exist.

    Genuinely confused. The only thing I can find that might be controversial is that it uses pacman? But no idea beyond that. If anyone is aware of what this is referring to, please let us know!

    Arch users are irritating, and thus the things they use are irritating. Since I, a debian user, am far too stable to ever be considered irritating, I possess a divine remit to pass judgement on the plebians from the lofty heights of my palanquin as I am borne through the forums on the shoulders of swarthy former Ubuntu users who are repenting for their past poor decisions through service to the agents of the Most Radiant Distro.

    Or something, idk. As far as I can tell it's just linux tribalism that's been going on so long nobody remembers why they do it anymore, APT hates Pacman because Pacman hates APT. There's incredibly niche usecases that get thrown out as justification but who even remembers at this point.

    Nobody:

    Billionaires:

    "We're going to see a resurgence of woke, I know you think billionaires are evil... But they're actually good. I've hired a team of people and bought a media company to say I'm good and they say I'm arguably the most influential thinker in the western world, and how could that be evil. The real evil people are muslim leftist white women because they're not having enough children for me to abuse. Would an evil person really tell you that with that much honesty and integrity?"

    Dangit, I thought all my carefully-worded internet comments about criticisms of the 1% were affecting positive change in the world while I lay here naked doing nothing at all to improve the world.... actually contributing to & advancing the nefarious goals of Zuckerberg & Thiel & Altman.

    Sssshhhhhhhhh. You'll scare away the test subjects. Of course you're not one, though. That's only for the low IQ lemmites. But that's not you. We couldnt test you because you can detect a bot like no one else can.

    Please don't use the term bot, we prefer the term Electroslav.
