imagine making social media so bad your own citizens actively procure your biggest rival’s networks.

Do you not care?
bingo. they dont give a fuck.
or to sum it up: socialism
thats why we must conquer the empathy of people now. we must be those people to liberals, like the previous revolutionaries were to us. before they turn into the kind of people that enables it.
if we had people as dedicated as my friends for more people we wouldnt (as a population) be that open to fascism as they are right now. fascism comes because things are bad and people are open to any solution that comes by, and we werent there to offer them hope. big burgeois media was the patient one to talk to them every day about it.
i also get frustrated by the people in my life but if we want to stop this madness we have no choice. we have to offer a real alternative to our fellow workers. there will be no mass media corporation to do it for us like they do for fascists. we have to do it if we want to break free from these chains. and we have to deal with people who are convinced capitalism is the answer because thats the only thing they were exposed to throughout their lives.
yeah, if you want to talk to computer normies about it, its good to focus on the practical advantages.
you wont get nag screens and bullshit, its yours. it works well even on potato computers. its actually easier to use in a lot of ways. there are no ads. it actually runs games now, sometimes better than windows. it wont randomly slow down for some background task while you use it. it wont uninstall your shit or reset settings. it wont install shit without you approval. there are no ads. its less targeted by hackers and viruses. it is more powerful if you want to put the effort.
so on, so forth. privacy and freedom are important things, but ones that most people sadly dont think about in secondary aspects of their lives like computers are for most people.
i probably would have taken that liberal stance long ago, but i had people explain their views to me in a good way that eventually made me rethink some of the things i held as truth. its just that it doesnt happen overnight. im not saying anyone will be convinced but the socialist strategy of getting people talking about political topics in a consistent organized way actually helps a lot here.
“it has to run every single piece of windows software or else its useless”
thats not an unpopular opinion though? maybe on the west? revolutions happen by convincing your fellow brothers, not by force or manipulation.
this is the hard part imo, we all have to go against the media machine.
thats where it gets ya if you are not keen eyed for their tricks
not with current technology.
but as it sometimes happens, we might find a way a couple hundred years from now, who knows. maybe even a practical use of the knowledge.
maybe string theory was flawed all along and we come to understand the universe a whole another way.
how can you realistically enter that list?
its not like they bring in just anyone that learns it i guess?
this sort of thing is exactly what we need, thanks.
yeah thats how i find them, we have good app stores on linux that could use some community curation though!
its common on linux for software to be abandoned, only for a fork to pop up elsewhere and it gets annoying.
til about this one, nice. i wish discoverability for linux software was better.
these “advisors” might be mostly bots anyway, pair it with a forum thats probably heavily moderated to keep unapproved stuff off it.
append site:reddit.com or something and you may find actual people talking about the issue, much more useful.
thats a good point. its part of how they divide us.
i love how this guy is putting class consciousness into people.
the race, gender and politics discussion is important, but to get anything done we need class consciousness first.
dont the uyghur thing get proven false time and time again?
videos and photos inevitably leak of shit like this but theres nothing credible to support a genocide happening in china… why do people believe this?
