yes, because hording money got us into this mess.

Why should you Proffitt so much off what used to be other people’s labour, and now plagiarism machine.

why do you expect me to sympathize with you.

I make good money on my own, and I do my best to NOT find the cheapest solution out there for my problems, and look for more ethical ways to spend my money. Because I care about my impact on others over my money. it’s having humanity.

so… that made it okay?

“well it doesn’t effect me directly other than my bottom line, so sucks for everyone else”

if all you have to say is that, have the day you deserve.

you missed the plot a little.

it’s not that it doesn’t have use cases. It burning the world down with it.

how much more water went down the drain cooling the requests you made? how about the electricity not going to local consumers but AI data centers.

all the computer components shortages…

that’s still before the fact you admitted you would have hired a human, and given them food on the table instead of a corporate giant to buy another mega yacht.

so that’s not the same person you replied to. Nor am I.

no one said anything about legality.

but that this points known hackers at your door.

all I said there was things don’t change unles leaders are made clear.

if that’s demanding action out of you, sure. but I never once said you, specifically you ( or any individual), do anything.

if saying the only way things change is by demanding changes then yes, I guess I demanded something of you

“we” as in those who demand better.

not we as in those who don’t care.

I never said you have to do something. just that things don’t get better that way…

I also loved the moved goal posts of “demanding you do something” to “implying”.

what makes you think I haven’t been?

if we don’t band together to demand it, what will actually change?

also please quote where I demanded anything of anyone here.

the only way things improve is we start demanding better.

lying down won’t do a thing

it always interesting to people who say ‘with current levels of funding’.

because taxes should be going to give you a closer train stop…

there’s a lot more to the article than open source

I think it’s the contradiction of trying to fight censor ship while also praising the US government, who is in a stream of heavy censorship. just look at that 60 min episode.

and on that day, not a single citation was given…

the thing you have to remember is that the internet is built off the backs of furries and trans women.

that’s not to say that all tech workers are one of those two, but a lot of those two work in tech, specifically open source.

Don’t believe me? look up programer/Unix socks.

and being a woman makes you immune to biases?

really, so being a women means your a perfect soul?

well we’re not making things extreme so…

as a trans person myself, I said nothing of your gender, and only spoke of your biases. just because your a woman, doesn’t mean you don’t have biases.

if you dislike what it says about you, that’s for you to process and deal with.

I’ve done nothing but point out what it’s saying to me, and just because you don’t like it, doesn’t mean it’s not being said.

real talk here…

its okay to be uncomfortable with what something says about you.

but you CAN controll what you unconsciously say. By starting to recognize these biases and start to examine the root, and decide if you want to change how you do that in the future.

I’m not even saying you have to, or even you should change. Just that if you WANT to change, you can.

but that’s the point isn’t it?

even a meme is deeper than it looks of you did it based on who you are.
