Main selling point of cars is that you don’t have to share them with strangers.

As I said I reject that extremist premise.

I declare it an extremist idea because is a “Black or white” “All or nothing” thing. We all need to have those biases so “some people” feel better about themselves, one way or the other.

I do not have those biases. That’s just it. The only thing I deny is a false accusation made by people that does not know me.

Because those people could came a say to me “see this behavior you had” that’s a little sexist. But not, they are unable to point such behavior, they just assume it must exist, because it’s part of their dogma.

I’m totally ok to just being pointed at something I made wrong and willing to correct it. But point it first. Not just assume that wrong behavior exist just because of a dogma.

And I also believe that accusing people of things they have not done just to fit a rhetoric is part of the cause of the disengagement of some collectives with the political mainstream left. Why would anyone would want to be near people that want humilliation, responsability and reparations for things one have just not done?

Sometimes it feels like a man need to feel guilty just for being a man, even if they have done absolutely nothing wrong.

I don’t know in America. Here in Spain there is a trend in which to be “feminist” somehow you have to admit that you are a little sexist, because are men are sexist even a little. It is an absolute. It’s not even “a majority of men…” its all, no other opinions accepted.

And if you decline that premise, and just say “I’m not sexist, I treat everyone the same despite gender” you are somehow lying and trying to hide your sexism, which makes you a bad person or something.

And I refuse that. I refuse to accept having done things that I have not done. Same I reject accepting responsibility for things I have not made or enabled. And some people still want me to accept that guilt.

That trend needs to die. I know that it creates sorority making the “all of us vs all of them” rhetoric, but my humble believe is that that path do not lead to the desired destination.

Edit: I was going to start the comment with “As a man” as it was my assigned at birth gender. But in all true and while for confort I just let most people treat me with masculine gender I just do not believe in gender as a social construct. Not that I do not believe as in I do not believe it exist, I do not believe that gender is a desirable social construct we need to keep in our society. But that’s just my opinion.

You don’t need to run if your name is written in the constitution as perpetual President.

I’m not American. I live in Europe.

But I’ll give an insight. Socdem party lost support for most people because they systemically failed to address the issues of the working class.

People can have empathy for other people’s problems. But when no one cares about your problems a ñnd election after election they ask you to vote them because empathy to others, and never for your own good, because they never do anything for you. And your life keeps getting worse and worse, and still they refuse to address your problems, and keep wanting your vote just for “stopping fascism” or “being solidary”… You can do that for one election, maybe two… But at some point you just phase out, you just cannot care anymore. If they don’t do anything for you, and you need something being done, you just don’t vote.

And seeing the low democratic turnout in the US, I think it may be the answer. Maybe people that didn’t show up yesterday is people that needed their problem solved the last 4 years and they just got ignored by the Democratic party. So they just didn’t vote the Democratic party out of spite.

I will actually probably won’t vote in my country next election. Fully knowing that the conservative and fascist parties will win and form a coalition government.

But SocDem and Communists have been ruling 8 years and they failed to address my issues. I cannot, in good conscience, keep giving them my vote knowing what they are doing with it. I just have my dignity. I will stand against the altRight on my own terms when they’ll raise to power if necessary, but I’ll refuse to give my vote to anyone who didn’t deserve it.

I just talk of my personal welcomes.

Legally I don’t know.

But if you are targeted by a conflict you can come as refugee. Many people from Latin America come here on that premise.

Every good person is welcome here.

I suppose it’s not the best. But if things go really wrong. Every LGBT migrant is welcome in my country (Spain). We have some of the most advanced laws on LGBT protection on the planet.

And while we have our share of far right that wants ti abolish LGBT rights, it is unlikely they will succeed at this even if they reach power (please, don’t let this afe like milk).

Yeah, no. Our European society is in decline.

Recently we had some floodings on Valencia. We are aiming for 300 dead… In a modern society 300 dead because of a flooding, the same dead tool as in 1957 when the same area flooded. Our society is definitely failing.

I work in a public administration. And 90% of our work is done on webapps anyway. There will be no difference if the os is windows or linux.

Are they? Most studies I have read on that matter are… not good science, to put on nice words.

There’s not even the need for empathy. If people voted for their best interest instead of the interest of the 1% we’ll be better.

People can’t take a joke

I cannot upvote you twice. But I think it was funny and clever.

We have different concept about what great news is.

Compiling to an interpreted high level language is crazy. I just refuse to believe we haven’t got a better solution to yet.

Sell “seasons”.

Put a prize on all videos released during each year. But once that’s paid I can have those videos forever.

No point on having to pay a monthly subscription forever to watch a video made 10 years ago from a youtuber that’s no longer active (maybe even alive).

Pay por the permanent ownership of the sold product.

As they say. If selling isn’t owning, piracy isn’t stealing.

If a seller doesn’t give me option to own their products I will certainly never steal them.

There was this group that had a teenager as a prophet. She ordered to sacrifice all the cattle to the gods. They all starved.

Why no vote equals a vote for Trump instead of the contrary a vote for Harris?

You are assuming that all people not voting or voting other party would vote for Harris, but this is probably not true.

Many of those people would vote for Trump if forced. Thus it would be better for the Harris campaign that they stayed home or keep voting for the Tea Party or some other third right wing party without representation.

I like the topic system. Allows to post and see without worries of duplication.

The problem is that the niche community exist. In fact it probably exists several times, one in each instance with a small number of followers. Which makes really hard to go and decide in which community you want to invest.

It’s one fundamental problem of federative systems and to be solved some of the federal nature need to be partially given away, but I think is necessary. I propose two solutions:

1. Automatic merging of communities. All communities with the same name within a federation are de facto replicated. So a post in any community just replicate in all. It will make it seem like there’s only one community.

2 Discourage. Everytime you try to create a community that already exists in other instance a pop up appears that encourage you to just go to the other community. For already duplicated communities messages are sent to concentrate in the biggest one.
