Working theory is that you don’t get to his point by having morals.

It’s a one about mental and intellectual development disability.

Edit: Before you replay with a deliberately misconstrued jokey quess, please consider that tiah would still be making a slur-based joke at the possible expense of people with disabilities. It may not be worth those upvotes.

Yes, becouse quality girls famously hate guys with sense of humor.

Why? It’s not like shortage of bourbon, is much more than inconvenience.

I’m just letting you know that your post reads a little off. I understand that I have only the fraction of information and I’m not clear on all the context. But I only have what you provided.

You also, jumped to calling people sheeps very quickly.

Are you 100% sure, that you’re not the one who’s toxic?

Carbon tax.

Sur. But I personally think thay Brave New Word turned out to be much more relevant to westeners.

I honestly think that approach like this is hurting the movement. You’re dismissive about experience of someone who deleted Microsoft account and canceled most US-based serviced and social media that he was most engaged with. And you’re literally explaining to me how convinient it is to me?

This revolution is way to small, to start eating their own already.

I agree on all points, except on you deciding what I need. I would prefer to be the one making that call.

One could argue that pen and paper is all you need. And it would be just as productive.

Immortaly gained superiority is exactly my initial point.

In comics Anti-hero, is not a villain. It’s a hero, using same tools as villains would (Deadpool, Punisher, etc).

Anti-pripaganda. Is a propaganda with opposite vector. Same tools, different goal.

If propaganda is “USA is roten country with systemic oppression off all but 1%, that is comming for our freedom and our resources”, the anti-propaganda would be “USA is the greatest country in the word and things we do are good becouse we are ones doing it. What even is a Patriot Act? Only terrorist should worry about stuff like this.”

Don’t know much about magicearth,

But workspace have, so much more features than kSuitPro, that this is not even a fiar comparison. Even if you dont count externalities like Gemini, Video, notebookLM…

The convenience of Google Photos is unmatched, buy any corresponding services.

Mistrel AI is a Clippy compared to ChatGPT and Gemini Advenced. Those companies are burning money on every query, but - until they kill everything else - they are generating tremendous value to the users. Idea that Minsterl would be just as popular if only it promote itself without false modesty is hard to defend.

LibraOffice is free, but google sheet is as well, and cloud-ready on top of that.

Linux… sure, but for the same people free chromeOS is just as good if not better becouse more convinient. With google anything is in cloud anyway, right? Sure, Linux is amazing. But it’s not exactly out-of-the-box. And if we count android… And who knows what Fussia will bring?

If you don’t want to pay, Google offer is more convinient. If you do want to pay, it’s broader and more powerful, all things equal.

Don’t get me wrong. It’s a trade of worth making. But pretending it’s easy and that there are no costs is misleading people. I’m doing it. I’m committed. So far I paying twice as much as I did pay for my tech-stack, and there are still gaps that I lost in the process.

But it won’t change, and only be worse if we are not ready to be uncomfortable for a while. It’s a diet. If we oversell how easy it is, people will try and go back to junk food in a minute.

Well, it’s a big and heterogeneous “outside” if we want to be nitpicky about it.

Maybe. But your impression of it may be skewed, because there are a lot of non-USA people here. That creste some mismatch in terms that tend to overwaight the perceived size of left-leaning people. But it’s terminology, really. What in USA is considered “left” more-or-less align with what is considered left outside of USA. But what an average Trump supporter call “conservative”, in the rest of the word is simply know as lunacy.

Probably Russians using bots on Twitter… oh, wait.

That kind of blew my mind.

One part of the problem, that he’s completely missing is that those are are not fairly competing free market prices. Many of those hegemons like Google gain their positions using what basicly is dumping pricess. They are loosing moment or Gmail, Maps, Drive, Gemini (AI), and many more “free or cheep”. Competitors are buried, bought on, copied, or starved as they need to.compeat with someone who is willing to burn millions. So many services that are leaders in their fields didn’t deliver a single dollar of profit yet. Their literal business plan is “we will take it all back once no one will have a choice anymore”

“Just find a way to compete” is basicly victim blaming at this point.
