The alternative is to do the action of not shopping at Amazon and then over time you’ll learn how to shop without it.

You don’t need to stop 100% immediately either but can wean yourself off of it.

I’ve not shopped on Amazon for like 5 years now. I just buy a lot less crap to be honest.

See the rest of the sentence.

No. The Texas legislature meets in January of odd numbered years. They can call special sessions but they can’t make a worse law as it’ll be equally unenforceable and if they did there’d be lawsuits to get injunctions to stop the count until it’s resolved.

There’s likely to be appeals of this ruling though.

Anyways try to be more positive. This is a win.

Doesn’t take too high of an IQ to come up with this dog whistle.

Yes and shutup we’re fixing shit.

You absolutely always make more power than what is being consumed. You need to have overage.

Users are making decisions for themselves.

The point of federated social media is about choosing who you federate with. North America for example contains 3 countries and they don’t all need to be federated with each other.

Federation is as much about drawing borders as it is deciding who you ally with while still keeping your own autonomy. It is entirely within the point of federation to not federate with everyone.

Didn’t realize. Removing those.

Hurr durr durr

DuckDuckGo has been harming people’s privacy for years now. Ironically in part because it allows Microsoft’s ad network through due to their partnership. Luckily there are many other alternatives out there.

We’re talking about defederating with the garbage trash instances. Specifically exploding-heads.

All defederation thus far has been about not connecting to the hate (EH, lemmygrad, etc.). No one is trying to defederate with reasonable instances.

No one on these instances is my fellow anything. They can go wallow in the cesspits where they belong.

That’s really interesting. Thanks!

I believe in being kind to kindness and cruel to cruelty.

The garbage trash instances (ie. exploding-heads) are cruel, they get cruelty in return. It’s a moral imperative to NOT be nice to them.

This is nothing like immigration and that point is so bad it’s not even wrong it’s just nonsense.

Wow Gab must be really disliked by the wide majority of people to end up in such a situation. They should reflect on why this is.

You’re right. That is sad. Move along now.

Well yeah that is intentional.

Yeah, so?

Jesus wasn’t a carpenter either. He was the son of a carpenter and that more likely translates better to day laborer. It was a reflection of his very humble origins. Being the son of a man in a trade (like a carpenter) would have put him more middle class.
