In this moment, I am euphoric. Not because of any phony non-open source OS. But because, I am enlightened by Linux

What if...
The democrats are only now condoning the riots, not because of poll numbers, but because the slaves are getting uppity and normalizing left-wing gun ownership....

Oregon Governor Kate Brown extended coronavirus state of emergency to Nov. 3rd. I wonder why Nov. 3rd? :D

If the current situation in Kenosha and Portland shows us anything, it's that the riots are filled with over-socialized, race-baited, boot-licking LARPers on both sides, nothing good can come from engaging, it's only scaring normies into the arms of their abusive lover, The State.

Look at this double standard for UK passport photos, lol

Isn't it amazing how people's trite, idiotic delusions mean we let them get away with making demands like this? Like how you don't have to wear a face mask if it triggers you or whatever.

I'm no statist or conformist but if you're going to make LOGISTICAL DEMANDS of people based on the unflinching requirements of things like virus contagion or facial recognition algorithms, how do you justify waiving them for bullshit reasons like "I believe in submission to Allah so I'm not allowed to look beautiful"? If the system can function without those requirements being met, why do the rest of us have to meet them?

I like the way many Leftists seems to think that companies get away with bad things because capitalism, and not because they are protected by the state.

Setting aside the fact they don't seem to understand that "Capitalism" means (hint: it means private ownership), the more free market you have, the more punishment the market can give bad actors.

Don't want an Android or an Apple? Well tough luck, because those companies are protected not by the free market (which simply doesn't have that power) but by their cronies in government.

Apple is being shitty, but Capitalism will protect them! Ah, no, its government regulations to prevent competition that protects big business, my friends.

Do you think, in a socialist country where the state runs/owns everything there would not be controversy? You have a problem with a state owned company, *good fucking luck* getting that resolved.
