well, i see what you didn’t do… 😔

if the users don’t like your question

if they don’t like the question, just post incorrect answer, someone will take care of the rest 😆

it is what’s known as murphy’s law.

You can and should rescind your support if they do something you disagree with

that is childish.

how many important questions are there to define your worldview?

• do you support israel in the war? - yes/no
• do you support abortion? - yes/no
• …

there is about 8 billion people in the world right now.

log₂(8billion) is roughly 32.9.

2 to the power of 33 is roughly 8.6 billion. that is 8.6 billion different combinations formed by these 33 binary questions.

that is for whole world; for usa with population of 350m the magic number is 29 questions (behold the power of exponential function 😆)

in other words - if there is more than 33 binary questions to define your approach to world - there is statistically not a single other person in the world that would share your worldview completely (that is as long as the various worldviews are distributed evenly, which is probably not the case, but lets simplify here).

that is why, if you want to find a common ground with someone, you sometimes have to compromise (as every person who has ever been married tells you).

otherwise you will just end up alone and that is not strong negotiating position to change the world.

“democratic politicians”, “person who incited attack on the capitol because he lost the election” and “one of us” can’t be in the same sentence.

it is imho simply the case that they can’t publicly say “oh fuck, so close, why did that moron miss?”

Discord servers are restricted ring-fenced sections of the internet. They are often used by gaming groups and communities as secure chat rooms but are also used by fringe organisations to push their ideologies and discuss wild conspiracy theories and plots.

well, he chose machine with metallic hinges, but still…

Ok, that’s fair point, but it still isn’t other people’s job to serve you links just how you like them.

What if desktop users delete it themselves, if they don’t like it?

I don’t see a megathread - any reason behind that?

there is a reason for everything, but you have to consult your optometrist for details…

Mike Howell:

Ok listen to me closely

We are in the process of identifying and outting members of your group

Reputations and lives will be destroyed

Closeted Furries will be presented to the world for the degenerate perverts they are

You cannot hide

Your means are miniscule compared to mine. You now can either turn yourself in or you can cooperate

Oh I so hope that reputations will be destroyed…

maybe you need one of these…

And people pay for this? to be advertised to?

no, people pay not to be advertised to, but you didn’t really pay, did you?

can i introduce you to our lord and saviour, the ublock origin?

former prosecutor should be extremely well-practiced and good at that.

Prosecutor vs. convicted felon. Who wins? Watch our brand new reality show!

Because we already know we don’t want trump, any time spent on discussing that is time wasted. But time spent on discussing whether biden has a chance to actually defeat trump is time well spent, because otherwise we may end up with trump.

folks that want to use information for nefarious purposes

like… electing competent president. got it 😂

you are really bad at this, spin doctor.

there would be no reason not to say “x met with y to discuss z law”. even if the information would be technically confidential (i am not going to fact check that), there wouldn’t be reason not to volunteer that information.

there is a reason to hide behind technicality if they are lying and defrauding the public, though.

yes, they do, crafting bills and seeking expertise for that is what they do for living and there is no reason to hide that.

there is, however, reason to hide declining health of a president who would like to run for a second term 😂
