Eugene V. Debs' Ghost

Instead of making new kids, let’s save the ones stuck in the foster care system. The ones who are needing care and love more than the vague concept of “what my child could be” and an actual human being on this earth today.

Well you got a link and it didn’t say genocide, so therefore they think it’s genocide. And now you’re banned for asking for proof.

What is this, Hexbear?

Wait he just pinged you out of the blue because he looked at the voting count and needed you to explain yourself?

Holy shit, even .ml doesn’t do that.

Always have been, just with a better PR campaign.

So instead of fighting it they changed their profile picture. Might as well post “Down for this sort of thing, I hereby declare Facebook can’t steal my posts” and then never actually do anything to help stop it.

He would have tried to sell your data if he could have. Clippy would use Recall 24/7 if he could have.

How many millions of people have you reached about the importance of consumer rights?

Only my friends, but I don’t then move to CorpoLand, USA because muh free dumbs.

It’s basically saying he was the freedom for ye, not for thee. Texas is where you go when you want to have companies do what they want, as any restrictions on their actions hurts their bottom dollar.

The entire clippy thing baffles me.

Let’s use the mascot of Microsoft, a tech giant who invades every inch that they can, to say we don’t like tech giants!

I don’t think any company that uses AI or scrapes data gives two shits what your avatar is. It’s the equivalent of changing your twitter profile to show support for the victims of something, and then carrying on as usual.

Microsoft would kill for Clippy to be remembered as a friend. Because that just sanewashes their history as a company when clippy was a thing. Yes, please ignore the anti-trust busting in Congress. Please ignore how we made computers worse for the end user by restricting what you can do on your purchased computer.

“Clippy was your friend. Clippy didn’t want to steal your data. Clippy just wanted to help.”

Help infantize the masses with “It looks like you’re writing a document, do you want help with that? Yes, or maybe later?”

This entire clippy thing is just basically free whitewashing and advertising for Microsoft, one of the biggest players in the reasons why people use the avatar.

At least invent something new, if it’s about protecting artists, instead of copying a jpg from a 90s corporate milquetoast mascot.

There’s other ways to get info. And man pages are a great way to learn how something is expected to work on your system. And it’s offline, without ads, scams, ai generated false info.

You meant to tell me the general public has kneejerk reactions and don’t know how a computer works?

What a shock that lemmy bashes Mozilla for doing their job.

Still waiting for this bloat to show up, and I’m on the latest update.

What in the fuck are you talking about

When you make claims, you give proof. That’s how things work in reality.

Clearly we’re the sheeple for accepting sources and citations and they’re the only one who can see the truth between the lines of how his favorite nation is actually misunderstood.

“Here’s a thing I believe in”

“I would like proof it is a thing”

“What are you, stupid? Don’t ask me for proof.”

Well you’re free to submit sources that are credible and challenge that old ones aren’t.

Someone is mad their sources got removed for not being credible.

One is Chinese (bad, stinky) one is American (good, freedom).

Both are authoritarian shitholes that violate the freedoms of its citizens.

Getting downvoted for wanting people to advocate for better living conditions, way to go .world!

Edit: Sorry for wanting people to advocate for better things, glad to know that’s too much to ask.
