Who told you not to trust anything China says?

My inherent distrust of authorities?

Totally! I keep hearing about the “death of RSS”, and yet, that’s how I follow most of my online media.

There are plenty of weird blogs, just look up The Small Web. There are less weird blogs that make money, but I can’t say that I’m overly sad about that.

The headline is a little misleading: This isn’t really about small blogs, but more about how Private Equity harvests smaller companies, and leaves their husks to rot. That is a very legitimate problem that needs some serious solutions.

Starting small and going slow is totally fine. Maybe you will level up to scripting and whatnot, maybe you won’t. What I think matters is having fun, learning, and getting things done.

Then you document it by putting those commands into a text file. Then you learn that you can script it it by making that text file a script. Then you learn that you can make it more automated by doing for-loops. Then you learn that you can automate more by adding a few variables. Then you realise how far you’ve come.

I think security teams are fine for a while.

Unfortunately, I have to disagree. Just because it’s a bad idea doesn’t mean that those in charge won’t go for it.

If you have to vote between a candidate who wants to build 5 concentration camps and another candidate who wants to build one. You vote for the candidate that only wants to build only one concentration camp.

Well it’s a good thing that we didn’t have that binary choice then. My ballot had a few options, some of them even opposing concentration camps, so I got to vote against them.

I’m not sure that you’re gonna find “The Answer” that you want on here, but this is my attempt: Vote for someone that isn’t the lesser evil. Self Organize on a local level. Fight fascist supporters even when they pretend to be the good guys. Unionize.

So it’s fair to say that the Democrats won’t sue to keep other leftist parties off the ballot? They’ll back leftist candidates even when it’s not their “chosen” candidate? They’ll actually oppose fascism rather than continue to pave the way for the facists? That they won’t keep pushing more funding to facist policies and systems, and will actually dismantle the facists’ tools?

Because I continuously see them do the opposite of those things.

which is currently the only other actual option in our political system

Premise: false

Isn’t it weird how continuing to do the things that got us here, isn’t fixing the problems that were created? I wonder why that could be. I guess we’ll never know.

…yes voting for the lesser evil is not the best option it’s still better than just letting the evil evil win.

Who said that we should just let the evil win? I don’t see that anywhere.

It’s so weird to me how many people accept the binary that’s been handed to them. As though the ones that hand you that choice would ever let one of the options be to your advantage.

I don’t mind being an I-Told-You-So type of guy. My problem is the people who keep ignoring us, then wanting sympathy. You get a couple passes, sure, but at some point, I’m no longer going to waste my time with you.

No, not since Obama got one. I’m sure some were given to other monsters before him, but he was the one that made me stop taking it seriously in any capacity.
