Did you not read the last paragraph, where they mentioned that it might not have value for OP directly, but their coworkers see value in it anyway?

This, but unironically.

Yeah they just started tier 2. I got an invite and I've abandoned all my accounts.

[–] Liz@midwest.social 1 points 8 months ago

That's literally the group they just offered to. So, I guess not enough people bought the first wave.

I'm in exactly the same boat. I was tempted to buy exactly one share to gamble with, and then I thought about their monetization efforts and the fact that they're offering shares to a person who deleted every comment and post they ever made.

Excellent point!

I did actually choose innate intentionally. While I'm sure trying to prove it would be an absolute bitch, it's not unreasonable to suggest some people's homophobia can be innate in the same way homosexuality or asexuality can be. Some people are just built that way.

In any case, I think the mechanism is somewhat irrelevant when it comes to my point. If you think something is disgusting but you know it's fundamentally harmless, well, learning to get along is what it's all about!

And here is the exact reason Signal dropping SMS was a terrible decision.

I'm of the understanding that those drones have pilots.

Eh, I think it's pretty clear that some amount of homophobia is innate as much as homosexuality is. Some people just plain find it gross. As long as they respect everyone's right to have their own lifestyle, that's really what tolerance and getting along is all about. We can't except everyone to like everything, so we should be proud when they put up with harmless things they don't like.

A la GameStop. The rich won't let you play their own game.
