If someone “perceives they are losing out” because of doing something positive for women or minorities then that says a lot about their worldview, they are the ones responsible for polarisation there.
Agreed on the campaign though, it was the dems’ to lose and they royally fucked it up.
Yeah, the demographics of voters are just made up, huh? They are the overwhelming supporters of the far right. Don’t wanna be painted like that? Don’t vote for fascists.
I’m a cis white guy too, for the record, and I’m not saying it’s something inherent in skin colour or having a penis that makes someone an asshole. But it’s classic bully behaviour to tell people lower on the hierarchy “look what you made me do”. You want things to be less divided then you should start by accepting the simple facts.
Germany has some more solid institutions in place than America, so the situation now is not as drastic yet, but your election results aren’t looking so hot either. If you want to know how it can look like this, you should already know…
No, straight cis white men will get hurt economically and through living in a degraded society, but they will not be forced to carry pregnancies, or be murdered because of their race or their sexual orientation.
And they know that. As long as he hurts those others even more they’re fine with what he does to them.
Yeah the thing is the average trump supporter will be hurt less than everyone else (and that’s the whole point)
The UK is not better than America haha, just outwardly a little more subtle
The mac comes with 256 GB though, and 256 > 1
Support for M1 and M2 is pretty good now but M3 is not quite there yet and it’ll probably be years before everything works nicely on M4, sadly
Just start wearing a “make fascists afraid again” hat and let him do the escalation (or something more subtle if necessary in your workplace)
How do you pronounce e.g. “squid”? It’s pretty close to skwid imo
Well yeah, it’s full self driving not full self stopping
It is, to within 5%, just make the equals sign squiggly and you’re good
Wow, I guess cryptography is just fraudulent, who knew
It’s “mushy peas”, they’re prepared from dried peas treated with baking soda (and then coloured green to look less unappetising). They’re kinda good though.
Don’t worry, people here yell at you for not using profane language because “you can swear on the internet”, they’re a weird bunch.
Your approach and understand seems realistic and solid. Go with any of the beginner-friendly distributions, as people have said, Mint or Ubuntu are good choices, because most of the support information online is available for them. Because Mint is based on Ubuntu, instructions for Ubuntu will almost always work on it too.

The Linux mint installation guide is IMO very clear and easy to follow, so I’d start there, and for the first time you can just go up until the “the live session” section and play around with it before deciding to install. The guide for Ubuntu is very similar.
Good luck and have fun!
“doing nothing is a decision” is a legitimate position you can argue for, but it is not some kind of settled moral fact that you can just assert without any justification.
Yes that’s my point exactly, people love to dogpile on anyone who doesn’t jump at the easy consequentialist solution, but there are other valid interpretations
That’s another way of looking at it
In 20 years millennials and gen z will be 30-60 year olds, you know, the people mostly in control of stuff
