For most of history you would be better off if you could kill the next village over.

That is an incredibly stupid take. For most of history, the planet was so vast that people had plenty of room to hunt / farm / whatever.
And no, killing other humans is not in our DNA, the only people who feel like that are those with brain damage / development defects.

again, I don't have a problem with copying code - but I as a developer know whether I took enough of someone else's algorithm so that I should mention the original authorship :)
My only problem with circumventing licenses is when people put more restrictive licenses on plagiarized code.

And - I guess - in conclusion, if someone makes a license too free, so that putting a restrictive (commercial) license or patent on plagiarized / derived work, that is also something I don't want to see.

As I am a big proponent of open source, there is nothing wrong even with copying code - the point is that you should not be allowed to claim something as your own idea and definitely not to claim copyright on code that was "inspired" by someone else's work. The easiest solution would be to forbid patents on software (and patents altogether) completely. The only purpose that FOSS licenses have is to prevent corporations from monetizing the work under the license.

“Why does no one say murder is bad unless China is murdering”

I can not fathom how you absolutely nailed the essence of my comment, yet misunderstood it (and - arguably - your own example) so fundamentally.

Let me try to help, once:

"Why do most people not complain about murder when Microsoft is doing it, but when China is doing it, the very justified outrage can be heard?"

I am also sick to the core about this aspect of humanity. I feel that we as a species are just about developed enough to understand how a better world would look like, and how people should act, what's "the right thing to do" - and very much not developed enough to overcome our egoism and narcissism to make it happen, so we do the wrong thing despite knowing better far too often.

With the obligatory "fuck everyone who disregards open source licenses", I am still slightly amused at this raising eyebrows while nearly no one is complaining about MS using github to train their copilot LLM, which will help circumvent licenses & copyrights by the bazillion.

whatever you need to tell yourself to not have to self-reflect the bullshit you are spouting...

raspberriesareyummy , to Microblog Memes in Only The Best Groomers

Words have meaning. And while it is absolutely and fundamentally wrong to impose religious bullshit on the education system (or anyone, really), no, you are moving the goal posts:
The ten commandments have nothing to do with Nazis. You arguing against evangelical fundamentalists doing whatever has nothing to do whatsoever with my previous comment,

Also, the winners will interprete who gets to be the axis and who gets to be the allies in history books...

...said the little troll after referring the ssuper sspecial sseckrit translation that only it knows... Yeah, suck it, loser.

raspberriesareyummy , to Microblog Memes in Only The Best Groomers

Have you considered that maybe I know something you don’t?

Considered briefly, but as you decided not to share the alleged "apartheid" commandments, I dismissed that consideration as unlikely and yourself as a troll.

raspberriesareyummy , to Microblog Memes in Only The Best Groomers

I suppose I shouldn't expect any reading comprehension from the OP...

raspberriesareyummy , to Microblog Memes in Only The Best Groomers

Because the original flavor is very clearly a list of rules made to enable theocratic control and create a religious apartheid.

I am pretty sure you are over-interpreting here. Theocratic control? Kinda, that's the whole point of all the "holy books" - I mean whaddya expect? But apartheid is separating people based on (perceived) ethnicity - and the ten commandments do not even attempt to separate people based on religion. They are presented as rules for everyone, no distinction made.

I can't believe that you managed to present such a stupid take, that I, a lifelong atheist who thinks all religion is stupid, has to defend the commandments... facepalm

I'll be the first to admit that there is a huge overlap between evangelicals (who pushed this initiative) and racist/fascist pieces of shit - but the ten commandments in and of themselves have no link to nazi-ism. :p
