starting the day with an important psa:

psychologists, therapists, psychiatrists, sexologists etc. do not have authority on knowledge period. the way psychology is approached from an outside perspective is inherently disregarding the individuals introspective and therefore unable to sufficiently analyze potential problems within ones psyche. neither the dsm nor the icd are well intentioned and critically revised manuals of disorders that serve to categorize and recommend measures to alleviate the struggles of neurodivergent people and lot's of diagnoses shouldn't exist in the first place. psychology as a field of research hasn't gone through enough reform to accurately reflect people's individual struggles and their causes. if you ever feel like an "expert" is talking utter nonsense about a specific topic I urge you to seek out people directly affected by whatever they're talking about and asking them for their opinions. the age of external and forced psychology is coming to an end and loads of people are no longer agreeing to being systemically discriminated against by people who don't even have our well being as their best interest when trying to help us.

Fucking found it. Although, no hand included.
So, sorry. That photo was not mine.

Not even a hot take 

If any software in your PC, including the OS allows automatic updates, your PC is already a part of a botnet.

This is like saying physics and calculus isn’t that difficult. You can teach a person of average intelligence how to take basic derivatives and do basic integration, and get them to where they can solve simple kinematics problems. You aren’t going to make them into a real physicist though, even if they can “do physics”.

Coding is the same way in that you can teach an average person a handful of tools and get them to where they’re able to write code that does something useful. They aren’t gonna be writing the backend for the next Twitter.

@ArnoldSchiller shared this image explaining how the system works. It might be of assistance. (and make your explanations a bit easier, @spytfyre)

This Trump Mar A Lago case is actually historically significant since the reason Caesar and Augustus eventually destroyed the Republic was because it became customary for the Roman Senate to legally destroy Consuls post retirement

I will try to be friendly, since you will encounter here a lot of ideas, that are far beyond what you're used to.

Welcome to the fediverse. One of the last few places on the planet. I have noticed, that you still believe in hate speech. The reason hate speech is being censored so often is, because it is factually correct. If hate speech was wrong, people would spend time debunking it instead of banning it.

Also, in case you really prefer a safe experience, here are your options.
1) turn on a whitelist based federation. It is a software after all, so if you want a 3 people instance, so be it.
2) Go to Twitter or Reddit. You are on the free side of the internet, but the swamp of censorship still does exist in the mainstream. You can find that literally everywhere else but here.

Enjoy your stay, and keep you blacklist empty. As soon as you stop treating everyone around you as a criminal, you might find a good community full of kind people who just occasionally argue about total nigger death.
