@charliebrownau @OldM8 @TylerAbeoJordan@liberdon.com Also, how is lying about the shape of the Earth supposed to benefit the Jews in particular?

@charliebrownau @OldM8 @TylerAbeoJordan@liberdon.com If the Earth is flat, you should be able to listen to any FM station anywhere in the world. FM signals go in a straight line, and no matter how powerful the signal is, you can only broadcast at a ~50 mile radius. The only logical explanation is that the Earth's curvature causes the signals to go off into space. I have yet to hear any flat-earther's explanation for this.

@82ba209aa75724c72afd56d5fe3f11674c621a7679ebd0dee6871524fb22e85e @lanodan Shut the fuck up, you fucking bee molester! Not once have I ever claimed to be a social darwinist. You only claim that I am because of my right-libertarian views.

And stop abusing the term "genocide". Eventually you are going to piss the wrong people off and an actual genocide will happen.

@hachi @ArdainianRight It's FREEWARE. I'm not even taking donations at the moment.

@OldM8 @TylerAbeoJordan@liberdon.com But I want to explore the stars.

@hachi @ArdainianRight @matana He is just trying to prevent your genocide of autistic children.

discriminatory/uninclusive software terms 

@tusooa @lanodan None of these words are bad. The whole black meaning "evil" and white meaning "good" comes from the black vs white magic dichotomy which originated from AFRICAN tribes. There is also nothing bad about master/slave. Not all slavery was racial. The Romans enslaved people regardless of race. Slave also comes from "Slavic" (i.e Russian, Ukrainian, Balkan, etc) and I never hear anyone complain about their enslavement.

>im not sure why "sanity" is bad wording

Because it's "discriminatory towards the mentally ill". They have a word for that. They call it "sanism".

Poast, and much of the greater fediverse will not follow a single one of these policy requirements, and the presidential administration can blow our cocks.

@matana @hachi @ArdainianRight You should've reminded him that his people were involved in a genocide that even shocked the Nazis.

@lanodan
Honestly, when it's just text, it's hard to tell if people are being sarcastic, serious, or whatever because you can't hear tone or see facial cues. You lose a lot of context when it's just text.

I just have a bad experience was the "autism rights" activists. Some of the organizations they tell you to support instead of Autism Speaks are the ones that tell you that it's "ableist" to use words like "stupid", "crazy", and "dumb". I also hate how some don't like it when you say "Asperger's Syndrome" because Hans Asperger was probably a eugenicist. Guess what, so was Alexander Graham Bell. A lot of inventions and discoveries are from abhorrent people.

And it's drama like that leads to further (unnecessary) policing of language. It's shit like this why we have CoCs and banning of terms like "sanity check".

@lanodan
>You need to inform yourself more on the subject, specially when it comes to autistic *adults* aka people that either learned the hard way by themselves

That's literally me. I'm autistic and learned on my own to pass as neurotypical. As a kid, my mom took me to a lot of programs for autistic people. Many of the adults there said that they couldn't believe that I was autistic. There were pre-teens acting like toddlers. The autism spectrum is more than just simply Asperger's (I'm calling it that despite the atrocities Han's Asperger may have done) and sever autism. There is shit in between. You and I are clearly less severe than Chris Chan who is unable to learn. I agree that Chris Chan is a disgrace to the autistic community and probably has other conditions like personality disorders, but he is clearly autistic.

>therapy (not "treatment" there is no relevant drugs/surgery/whatever, in a way because there's nothing to really fix, but more things to learn)

That's what I meant. I'll admit that I used the wrong word there.

@xianc78 @hachi I believe I once mentioned how subtitles on politician speeches/public service addresses would be more useful to both the hearing impaired and regular people than that gay-ass sign language performance art.

@lanodan But autism is still part of the problem and even then, some autistic people are more severe than others.

@ArdainianRight @hachi Things like larger text, subtitles, remappable controls, and color blind support are fine. It goes too far when it destroys the original intent (e.g the game was intended to be very difficult) or makes it stop being a game all together (shit like removing enemies entirely).

@ArdainianRight @hachi It also ruins creativity. Imagine every game having to accommodate towards the blind. That means that every game would be a text-adventure read through a screen reader. You have to cut off at some point.

@xianc78 @hachi Especially in the context of legislation. It's good to be considerate of those with special needs but ADA mandates and the like add costs that smaller businesses might not be able to handle.

@ArdainianRight @hachi Also, it is impossible for society to accommodate for every single disability. You just have to accept the fact that some disable people are unable to do certain things.
