This is a manufactured fake greentext. Some kind of CIA psyop to whitewash 2011 4chan as somehow pro LGBTQ or chill with My Little Pony. I mean there's nothing necessarily wrong with that, it's just kind of ridiculous to try and act like this comes from 2011.

My parents have an Alexa and I have no choice in whether they install one in our house or not. I doubt they would be convinced by my pleas about privacy. So unfortunately and reduction in whatever privacy that was left is a shame.

DS9 has

Religion Apologia (Bajoran Prophets)

War Crimes Apologia (Siskos multiple war crimes)

CIA Apologia (Glamorization of Section 31)

Nationalist War Glamorization (Dominion Federation War)

The entire last two seasons are nothing but glamorizing a traditional "good vs evil" war with the Federation basically serving the role of a nationalist hegemonic superpower.

I like Deep Space Nine, but to act like it's anything but the degeneration of Star Trek into its most base capitalist apologia spacewar elements is a stretch.

systemd is an init system and just has not played the same role in the development of GNU/Linux distributions like GNU has. before systemd there was sysvinit, and there are number of alternate init systems. It's not about system functionality that we name operating systems.

Uh no, it's not. GNU has been integral to the GNU/Linux project for years. Without GCC, coreutils, glibc, there would be no linux distributions. Systemd has not played the same role.

Debian GNU/Linux has been called Debian GNU/Linux since at least 1997 https://lists.debian.org/debian-announce/1997/msg00013.html

The ideal would be a locked boot system that is installed by the user and is fully under their control, but I have yet to encounter one.

Trans “allies”: Don’t vote for the DNC they’re not good enough

86% of LGBT people voted for Kamala Harris, at least according to exit polling.

https://www.nbcnews.com/politics/2024-elections/exit-polls

These figures mark Trump’s worst-ever performance with LGBT voters — who make up about 8% of the population.

To blame transgender people, who make up a minority of the US population and electorate is not only untrue, as LGBT resoundedly voted democrat, but its also disgusting to somehow blame our oppression on ourselves. The Democrats lost this election because they failed to address the economic issues of the working class, and instead focused on centrist pandering and immigration. Democrats cannot advocate for the working class because ultimately they are beholden to the ruling class elites.
