I have so much I need to do, but I'm too jaded to do anything productive.

Yes, I know that Telegram's frontend app is open source, but:
1. Open source ≠ free software
2. The server side is closed source.

If it's not 100% free software, it's just proprietary.
Saying something like "this soyware is 95% free software" is like saying "my girlfriend is 95% AIDS-free"; if you have 5% AIDS, you have AIDS.
Likewise, if your soyware is 5% proprietary, it's proprietary.

> Although Telegram is not ideal it is still better than many proprietary services.

Dude, Telegram IS proprietary!

You seriously have to be THIS desperate to basically repeat the #covAIDS in the form of so-called #monkeypox despite the fact that literally nobody cares.

But I have to give them some credit, as least they no longer hide the fact that censorship is in fact censorship.

Ethiopian terrorist leader calls for Big Tech to work with him to censor shingles (which is one of the many effects of the lethal injection) "truth"

@waltercool WW1 started not even a full year after the establishment of the Federal Reserve, all by design.
Country on country wars are always fake, it's just puppets controlled by the same people putting up open air theater, and you're playing a role whether you like it or not.

@graf @xianc78 @alex As a last resort we can do a Luke Smith, and develop systems that will provide us a passive incum, so we won't have to work for any company or contract ever again, and still be able to put food on the table.

@digdeeper @LukeAlmighty Well said.
I too get distracted over that, but what do you expect if the authoritarian to libertarian ratio is like 90:10, and among the authoritarians it's always the most extreme sides that are getting all the attention, whether it be the extreme leftists on Shitter worrying about drawings of girls with an A cup or bigger is somehow sexist, or the extreme rightists on Gab complaining about how looking at drawings is somehow equal to actually raping real life children.

And then the freedom loving people on Fedi and their own websites, as well as the "moderate" authoritarians on big and/or alt tech, and everyone in between are making memes of their retardedness, bringing them to front page news like if it actually matters, or openly complaining about their behavior is only going to feed the extremes and hide everyone else.
Honestly, I too am pretty guilty of that myself.
