You can maybe make this comparison in 2018. Ut doesn’t hold after Trump’s first presidency, though. This is a “fool me twice” situation.

Bingo. There’s no upside here. Either very stupid, selfish millionaire bigots own the farms, or somewhat less stupid billionaire bigots own them.

Yeah, Usenet is amazing right now. I just with the discussion groups were seeing the benefit of the media and binary revival.

They’re not trying to be pick-me brown folks. They’re just also fascists, and have been kind of blind to the fact that their ideas of fascism and class power are different from the average MAGA WASP’s.

Governments work for whoever acts like their bosses. The people don’t act that way, and oligarchs do, so here we are.

Well, most of us know how to deal with all of those, and the vast majority of them haven’t been an issue for the average user for, like, decades now. No one’s fucking with compatubility mode post, like, 2004.

Meanwhile, most of the help you get when trying to solve issues on Linux are command line commands that are not explained by the helper and which we have no idea what they actually do.

The fight I had just to get my printer to work. The fight I’m still having to get my audio interface to work consistently.

Exactly. You vote for the Leopards Eating Peoples’ Faces Party because you want to watch the leopards eating someone’s face. You just never believe it will be your face.

Bingo.

Every business mogual loves a fascist oligarchy until they discover they’re on the outside.

they devolved into being part of the establishment.

I like how they think voting for people who most benefit from the system and who the system is made for and modelled after was never the mistake. Those people just weren’t strong enpugh, somehow, to be corrupted by that system.

It’s not that hard to throw up a website that allows user uploads. The community can replace iN in a heartbeat. They bought into their brand as the important thing, and not the contributors, and now they’re probably going to slowly waste away.

“They hated who I hated! I didn’t think they’d hate me, too!”

Hey, do I work for you?

“We’re the front page of the Internet!”

“No, not like that…”

I asked a Llama model on Hugging Face, and this is what it said…

They learning what it means to only care about the “Me” in America.

The reasons why the wealthy like liberalisation matters, though. The reasom the wralthy want more wealth matters.

Money is power. The wealthy are competing to have the most power. Eventually, that turns to taking control of the state. So, the wealthy will back free trade and deregulation right up until they, personally, are in a position to attempt a coup. After that, regulation and trade barriers work for the particular rich folk who have taken control over the state.

I think it’s dangerous to imagine people follow these folks, or let them run rampant over society, because they aspire to be like them. That makes it so much harder to really understand why people support them, or even just refuse to tell them “no”, and makes it impossible to do anything about it.

People believe that life is a meritocracy. Even when they themselves can look around at the people near them and see that those in positions of power don’t deserve it, they still view society as a whole as “fair”. Yes, they personally have may have gotten screwed over, but, in general, the people who float to the top got there because they were smarter and more capable. Therefore, we should sit back and just let them cook.

They need some kind of trigger to see the billionaires not as people who have earned their place, but who have stolen it.

There’s nothing secret about it. They told us up front.

It’s why I stopped using Windows.
