IANAL, but idk, maybe explain some of this in the privacy policy?

nothing prevents them from removing this verbage from the project

Yes. They have demonstrated this much.

Which is convenient, because now when they decide they do want to sell your data, it’s fine because their privacy policy doesn’t say it anymore!

Man. I want to root for Mozilla, but they are definitely looking down the barrel of enshittification.

No it isn’t.

Not unless you cherry pick quotes.

OK then, so Mamdani’s win was ALSO meaningless, right?

No.

It doesn’t mean anything about a progressive push in the party?

Didn’t say that either. It’s not proof that the party is getting more progressive. He didn’t exactly earn their full throated endorsement.

You see how your arguments works both ways?

No. My “arguments” was that that one or two examples dont constitute a “proof” about any grander strategy being used.

. Why are you so upset that Dems won in VA?

Oh I see we’re just doing full blown straw men now.

In that case, it’s the same reason you are so upset about some shit that you didn’t say anything about.

They wouldn’t have won there running Mamdani’s campaign

That’s true. Virginians don’t care about free buses in New York. They’d probably have to make the campaign address Virginia.

because the entirety Virginia is the not the municipality of NYC.

Hard truths here in this post.

Fact is, the more progressive candidate won by 15 points. Not sure how this proves anything about what would have happened had an even more progressive candidate run.

One or two examples of a thing is not “proof” of anything.

“Proof”

I am calling on the Klaus regime to return to the borders agreed upon in the Black Friday Agreement

Wow you know it’s bad when Rafael “Ted” Cruz, of all people, is calling you a coward.

What does this have to do with planned obsolescence?

Wait wait wait.

Did they just violate the 3rd amendment?

Is that a BINGO or what?

Year ago

Wild response.

Hah I love this.

If I were to tell it as a verbal joke I would say

You heard the one about the woman with a phobia of ghosts and public speaking?

She had a heart attack when the crowd BOOed her!

And also from the Epstein files.

Just in time for the holidays.

discriminatory equity ideology

… are they trying to change what DEI even means in the process here? Incredible.

2 upvotes 4 years ago huh?

Guess it really made an impact.

Moreover, Democrats seem to have done little self-reflection over whether their aggressive push to implement their progressive values alienated more conservative Americans and contributed to their own defeat in 2024.

Fucking yiiiikes.

generally don’t chitchat with strangers.

Except on the internet.

It doesn’t cost anything in that situation not to talk, there’s no negative to it.

There is opportunity cost.

But just to be clear, your position is “don’t be the first one talking if talking to strangers, unless absolutely necessary, it’s too risky.”?

If this is not your position, please state it again, because this is how I read the comment I’m replying to.

In either case, please state what you think “the negative” that you are risking, or risking for a person on their behalf.

Your position seems to be that there is no risk so small that it wouldn’t override a potential win.

I am trying to point out the absurdity of this position.

If you can’t see the absurdity of this position, even with the silly parameters on it, then I’ll just ask this direct question:

How do you justify ever talking to a stranger? Surely the risk of a negative outcome is just too great, because there will always be some risk.

If this is not your position; state your position in similar terms.

Ok then how about it’s no money, but they have to hear about how they didn’t get the money, and so they feel kinda bummed out, if they don’t win.
