birdwing@lemmy.blahaj.zoneto Asklemmy@lemmy.ml•What do you think about the concept of lesser evil? (i.e. when faced with selecting from two immoral options, the less immoral one should be chosen.)1·1 day agoDiverting it to the direction of the one, and liberating the one, is what was meant. It’d be good to read before commenting.

Fascists and their enablers often ask in bad faith. They hyperfocus on vulnerable minorities, to distract from their own group being ontologically evil.
If I had the money I would hire all those who got fired.

(i.e. when faced with selecting from two immoral options, the less immoral one should be chosen.)3·1 day agoAnd of course, there’s also the unsaid option of diverting it and liberating the one in time, then the rest.
But, that is more difficult to pull off. Though better. I think if both the greater and the lesser evil support a greatly harmful outcome, then the only winning option is to support neither and fight for an option that’s better.
With FPTP in the USA, the winning option would have been that everyone who normally voted Dem, voted for Green or the Democratic Socialist Party. But again, harder to pull off since you gotta convince so many people.

birdwing@lemmy.blahaj.zoneto No Stupid Questions@lemmy.world•What’s the actual reason neurodivergent people are sometimes discriminated against or bullied?61·4 days ago“Neurotypical” people aren’t as aware of differences due to being the “dominant” group. They often have a herd mentality and join whatever dunks on others best to come on ‘top’.

birdwing@lemmy.blahaj.zoneto Ask Lemmy@lemmy.world•What is your most "Fuck you, this is actually awesome?" take?3·5 days agoOut of curiosity, why did you buy it? It’s so big and seems like a safety hazard for people, wasteful as well.
What would’ve convinced you to switch back to something else? Or what would convince others to do so?
That’s North Korean levels of spyware, jfc
birdwing@lemmy.blahaj.zoneto Technology@lemmy.ml•Google AI Mode To Become Default For Google Search Soon1·5 days agoRussia annexed Crimea, has military operations in other countries, is currently invading Ukraine with the goal of conquering it, and has Belarus and Transnistria as puppet states, as well as Ossetia and Abchazia. And not to mention, it’s spreading its poison of fascism abroad to Hungary (yet another puppet state) and Trump is bootlicking Putler’s shrimp dick.
You can deny what you want, but the harsh truth doesn’t care.
The only good fascist is a dead one, point said.
birdwing@lemmy.blahaj.zoneto Showerthoughts@lemmy.world•What if LGBT adopts a white and grey striped flag to replace the rainbow? Then Florida would have to abolish crosswalks entirely.52·6 days agoIronically Bryan doesn’t even understand the Bible, as God in the very Bible is described with not just masculine but also feminine and neutral attributes.
They for example are described as being beyond humankind, yet the latter proceeding forth from them. Guy, gal, all proceeding forth from God; in other words, God isn’t a man, woman, but beyond either.
It’s ragebait that he posts and either he knows what he’s doing (likely), or he’s just that dumb/hateful (also likely).
The Bible itself is also pretty contradictionary. For example. God punishes slavery, by releasing the refugees from Egyptian servantry; yet he rewards Adam for snitching on Eve, and makes Eve a slave to him.
The closest analogy to the fictional God is a power-tripping CEO like that of United Health.

birdwing@lemmy.blahaj.zoneto Showerthoughts@lemmy.world•What if LGBT adopts a white and grey striped flag to replace the rainbow? Then Florida would have to abolish crosswalks entirely.51·6 days agoPersonally, the way I view it, the rainbow is most flexible, as it literally includes everyone (queer and nonqueer), and the progress pride (as in, pride + triangle with whatever is in there) mostly functions as an acknowledgement of especially repressed groups.
View it like how countries have their national days, or how there are weeks of reading focused on a particular theme or subject (school homework included). That, but for queer stuff.
birdwing@lemmy.blahaj.zoneto Showerthoughts@lemmy.world•What if LGBT adopts a white and grey striped flag to replace the rainbow? Then Florida would have to abolish crosswalks entirely.11·6 days agoI haven’t really heard of those jokes and animosity. We’re not letting ourselves get divided, though.
Comrade, remember that the fight is not with other queers, but with those who repress everyone; the oligarchs.
birdwing@lemmy.blahaj.zoneto Showerthoughts@lemmy.world•What if LGBT adopts a white and grey striped flag to replace the rainbow? Then Florida would have to abolish crosswalks entirely.4·6 days agoWouldn’t that only tell the ‘parts’ rather than the sexuality, gender, and so on?
birdwing@lemmy.blahaj.zoneto Showerthoughts@lemmy.world•What if LGBT adopts a white and grey striped flag to replace the rainbow? Then Florida would have to abolish crosswalks entirely.2·6 days agoTechhnically that’s black and white stripes with a capital lambda.
Black and white stripes can be used as such too, though.
birdwing@lemmy.blahaj.zoneto Technology@lemmy.ml•Google AI Mode To Become Default For Google Search Soon1·6 days agoYes, and the jurisdiction counts too. I still don’t understand for example, why Wikipedia still is based in the US, when there are much freer options.
And… even with surveillance, I think police needs a reform. Right now cops are biased in favour of repressive forces, to dismantle liberty and order, in favour of chaotic surveillance.
For surveillance cams:
Cover them up and destroy them with drones.
