No thank you, I'll use Firefox instead. Brendan Eich the CEO of Brave is a POS, he donates to shitty causes and then pretends that those donations don't define him as a bigot.

"In other words, because he silently donated to causes seeking to strip rights from minority groups instead of directly harassing them, the outrage was unjustified."

I agree.

Nothing naive about it "your vote, your choice" is still valid even today. You may not like the fact that progressives and independents don't toe the party line but you need to learn to accept differing viewpoints. No one attacked you, they just stated their opinions and you immediately went on the offensive.

That's a fascist's wishlist, it's a bunch of stuff that's never going to happen, but it's a useful cudgel for some people to bludgeon dissenters with.

So dissenters are crazy or evil instead of just being principled? Good to know. Blocking you now.

So NOW you all dislike Fetterman! Get in line, I was hating on the man long before he was elected because he was a proven bigot.

How did they break into your cat? Was it a Being John Malkovich thing? Or was it a Ray Palmer in the Amazon jungle, Sword of the Atom, yellow aliens thing?

You seem to be missing warnings for nanoplastic and microplastic pollution. Also a warning for perchlorate contamination from forever chemicals. And one for wet bulb temperature zones near the equator that require hibernation or protective clothing during daylight hours.

There is no chill 2080 utopia in our future.

I do like the icons, they were a cute distraction.

Yeah, I think that's actually the problem, I need to unsub from solarpunk because it cultivates a completely illogical view of the future.

No we're not. We are just on the cusp of four shitty years. People are overreacting to a demented old man. There's a long list of things the crazy fucker wants to do, and an extremely short list of things he will actually be able to do.

The media silos are feeding everyone panic pablum with a chaser of hysteria pills. We've had bad presidents before and everyone lived through them.

No it means exactly what the definition for alarmism says. You can choose to believe "it means nobody has to do anything about the problem and no one is to blame".

And quoting Mein Kampf only means that the politician in question is either mentally disturbed or dog whistling.

I have no idea. I wanted a standalone alternative to Google Keep on one of my lesser used devices and this did the job.

Bought the license and it does what I need, plus it synchs to my encrypted storage on pCloud.

Why a Decade of Protests Didn’t Lead to Revolution | a new book discusses ten years of democratic anarchist protest movements and how they only served to empower right wing autocrats ( jacobin.com )

Why is this solarpunk? Because changing society takes people power. Because protests change nations. Because for the last decade protests inspired by democratic anarchist principles have sprung up in nation after nation, from the Arab Spring to Occupy Wall Street. And the after action report of the first two decades of the...

Peaceful protests don't lead to revolutions, violent protests do. When things get so bad that people start to violently destroy the infrastructure then you get revolutions.

Revolutionaries start real revolts by terrorizing the powers that be.

I started working at age 13 back in 1980 because I wanted money to buy GI Joes, and comic books. So I started going to construction jobs with my shithead father on Saturdays and helped him put up sheetrock. My first legitimate job was the summer I turned 15, I was big for my age so I started doing deliveries for a furniture store, worked there for two summers until I was fired after a workplace injury. The guy I worked with was a racist Italian from Whitestone New York, and I was a smart slightly autistic black kid. His delivery truck only had one seat so I stood in the open door on the right side holding on for dear life. One day we were moving a heavy office desk upstairs and I was bringing up the rear, he lost control which resulted in the desk sliding downstairs and slamming me into a wall. My ribs were badly bruised so after I got home the store panicked and fired me, they probably thought we were going to sue. Anyway I went into a deep depression and couldn't leave my room for a month. One of my therapists later told me that it was the first appearance of my bipolar disorder.

I was legally employable, and of age but still got hurt on the job. I just had shithead employers.

I initially read that as "fashion traitor" and pictured her wearing Gucci in a Prada zone.

I keep seeing this nonsense in my socials. No a self sustaining dictatorship is not going to suddenly appear in America. It would probably work in almost every other country on Earth, but in the USA it's impossible because of the individualist delusions all Americans are raised on.
