If you don't like the word authoritarian why did you use it? And why did you get defensive when someone agreed with your image.

Even sarcastically I don't see what you goal here was. To say the us and the soviet union are similarly inhumane? Or the us is slightly worse?

Ok, and?

"Since April, the Pentagon has stopped all military reviews of proposed wind farms, which are meant to ensure that turbines don’t interfere with local radar or flight paths. Virtually every new wind project in the country needs to undergo these reviews, which until recently were considered routine and often completed within months."

Second paragraph.

Yeah, Bazzite being immutable is one of the reasons I've held off for so long. Its extra hoops are a learning curve, and I would argue the benefits of immutable are worth it, there's just a time factor involved regarding learning. Hopefully as things develop, guides and workflows will simplify everything, and drag people over.

I'm on Linux and I don't have your HD2 issue at all.

My guess is you have a setting that's somehilow donking things up.

And quite honestly those kinds of problems are something that exists on Windows too.

I switched several years back (first to Mint then Nobara, and I'll probably be migrating to Bazzite or CachyOS down the road) and I haven't looked back, it's a bummer you're having a bad experience but it won't apply to everyone.

Yeah really, was looking into it, now I know to stay far away.

Peak comment. Did you RTA? Because it does the opposite of what you propose, no factual evidence, and largely biased language.

So...? We're just supposed to take their word that the sky isn't blue because in the past they've said the the sky is blue?

I mean it's close to 30/70 on avg for most things, while he's sunk under 30 on areas that matter a lot to him being able to rubber stamp his name on things and it mean something.

But I guess we could round up the one that says 36 and pretend the rest don't exist.

It's not the same as it's always been, his base is actually flipping on him now too.

I think I agree with everything you said except that 4chan was the face of it. Even in the digital realm alone, there are far larger and far more toxic avenues, and one of the largest is staring at most everyone in the face every day. Facebook has been far worse imo than 4chan could ever dream to be, for the very same reasons 4chan is condemned.

I'll concede that could be my subjective viewpoint tho based on my interactions with both of them.

Appropriately attributing blame to those who perpetuate it. It is possible that 4chan was a useful tool, but 4chan itself is hardly invested it keeping everyone divided to pull people away from actual issues.

They also pale in comparison to the influence political leaders, mass media, and billionaires have.

And? 4chan was a shithole. I don't know why I'd be defensive over it.

I just thinking blaming edgelord neckbeards with terminal online syndrome for the current political landscape is a cop-out and naive at BEST.

If that's a defensive position to take of 4chan your bar is extremely low.

I believe this post, like many others are correlating the creation of the /pol/ board on 4chan after moot had a conversation with Epstein or something.

Acting like /pol/ and 4chan is solely responsible for the entire situation is just a vapid braindead take, much less the idea that a political board on a popular forum hangout is some meniacal master plan...

Obviously all this Epstein shit is heinous af, but acting like he's the origin of all evil just fucking hilarious "this is your brain on religion" logic. That being said, Epstein would definitely make a good "Satan's avatar" in a story...
