Yeah, James Madison definitely made a mistake writing “and”, but also fuck the courts for that ruling.

It’s mainly a mix of economic frusturation and a divide and conquer strategy by the rich in order to have the masses blame immigrants and people of other races/religions/genders/sexual orientations/etc. for all of their problems instead of blaming the elite class and capitalism. The lie of meritocracy being real also plays a big role here (“temporarilly embarrassed billionaires”).

There is another angle, though, and that’s sexual frusturation. When a teenage male has issues getting laid and they look online for some kind of support, they find people like Andrew Tate and Jordan Peterson who tells them that men who “get laid” are “alphas” or whatever and that women should be treated as subhuman or as slaves. These incels have likely never actually attempted to make friends with any women outside of a sexual or romantic context, because if they did, they would learn that women are the same as them, even when it comes to their struggles (even pertaining to dating/sexual frusturations).

I think the latter reason (specifically Gamergate) sparked the fire that made the first truely possible on a scale that we haven’t seen in our lifetimes.

There is also the additional piece of info that the majority of people won’t take action against what is happening in politics until it personally affects them, which is a very unfortunate reality.

I hear Elon has been wanting to colonize Mars.

Not only was he illegally searched, but McDonald’s is likely engaging in illegal facial recognition based surveillance, possibly in collusion with the federal government.

No way a random McDonald’s worker could randomly point out that Mangione looks like the suspect, of which we had very few photos.

Not to mention the solitary confinement, although unfortunately, I’m not sure that’s illegal, even given the 8th amendment.

Yes. PipePipe is a fork of NewPipe.

Or Mullvad Browser, which is just the Tor Browser without Tor.

There’s also IronFox on Android which is more similar to LibreWolf than MV Browser.

Have you tried using a US English locale? Most AI models are trained mostly in English, so not sure if your locale being Dutch is affecting that.

I’ve been a Linux user for over a decade. Do you just not know that Proton and WINE exist? They work extremely well nowadays. It’s not like it was 10 years ago before DXVK released.

We get it. We live in a shitty, gerrymandered two party system thanks to FPTP and there is no true anti-war or anti-capitalist party. What’s your point?

Saying “both sides bad” without mentioning one side being much, much worse is just being disingenuous. Not just that, but it attracts people on the worse side, who then will not accept criticism of their own side. Look at Jimmy Dore for a perfect example of this kind of audience capture.

In this example, you have Biden on one side, who was being complacent in a genocide while saying publicly that he wants a ceasefire deal, but not doing what was in his power to actually make it happen, like cutting off arms and funding to Israel. On the other side, you have Trump who wants to nuke Gaza and commit ethnic cleansing himself (I’m sorry, I meant to say “displace Palestinians”) and rebuild it as a paradise in his image without Palestinians.

Let’s just say Netanyahu publicly wanted Trump to win this past election, and there’s a good reason why.

You’re missing the point entirely. I’m saying the people I’m labeling as “good” don’t have ASPD, whereas the “bad” people I listed do.

Your definition involving legality does not match up to the medical definition of ASPD, which is defined by morality. I think you’re getting confused because people with ASPD are often times also criminals, but the medical definition is not simply “a criminal.”

From the link above: “Antisocial personality disorder, sometimes called sociopathy, is a mental health condition in which a person consistently shows no regard for right and wrong and ignores the rights and feelings of others. People with antisocial personality disorder tend to purposely make others angry or upset and manipulate or treat others harshly or with cruel indifference. They lack remorse or do not regret their behavior.”

Now tell me how Harriet Tubman had ASPD given that definition.

Or if you prefer the DSM-5, it’s on page 659: https://archive.org/details/APA-DSM-5/page/659/mode/1up

I think you’re getting hung up on that first point (A1), but three or more of those criteria must apply to be able to diagnose ASPD.

Not necessailly federation, but I’ve seen a lot of people prejudge commenters for what instance they’re a part of, most commonly calling people from .ml or hexbear tankies just for being on .ml or hexbear. It gets old really quickly.

There are people who legit do not care about any other person than themselves. This isn’t a question of legality, but morality.

The question you have to ask is “who do these actions benefit the most?”

Harriet Tubman absolutely cared about other people, otherwise she wouldn’t have done what she did to help free slaves or advocate for women’s sufferage.

How much did Robin Hood personally benefit from stealing from the rich and giving to the poor? If he was truely selfish, wouldn’t he have kept all the riches to himself? Sure, he got fame and notoriety, but I think we all know that riches = power, and it has always been that way ever since large civilzations began.

Also a counterpoint: Following the law does not make you just if the laws you follow are unjust laws, especially if they hurt other people. The obvious example here would be Nazi Germany. Nazis were just following orders, and anyone who rightfully resisted their regime were severely punished. Were the people who resisted bad people? Were the people who followed the law good people?

Now, take someone like Trump. Has he ever done something in his life to benefit another person over himself? Has he ever made a sacrifice in service to another person? I’m not counting tit-for-tat corrupt dealings here, but genuine actions of kindness. What about Elon or Zuckerberg?

Which is really ironic if you consider sociopathy to be a mental illness.
