  • So your response to Rimus actions is to fuck over hundreds of people, whilst judging his behaviour and seeing your own as righteous?

    This was a dick move.

  • Because I value community, and I'm not interested in a community filtered through the interests of a profit driven company

  • I see you speak my language

  • I've removed a bunch of comments from this thread.

    The "but" in this meme means "But there are instances where I don't support a trans person's identity/equal rights". It means that there is never a scenario where you think it's ok to suggest that trans people should have less rights than cis people, and that there is never a scenario where you think it's ok to invalidate a trans persons identity.

    If your reply is something along the signs of supporting the "but..." because you think "actually, there are some shitty trans people", then cool, we know, but this isn't the thread for it, and you're pulling trans people down in a trans space, to defend a position no one was making. This isn't that thread. This is a thread for support. So I've removed those "gotcha" replies.

    If your reply is "actually, there are times when trans people don't deserve equal rights or to have their identity respected", then your comment has been removed, and you've been permanently banned from all blahaj spaces.

  • I spent my life thinking I should have been a girl/woman. One day I realised I was.

    Of course, it was a bit more of a journey than that makes it sound, but that's the gist of it

  • I'd argue that a company is more like someone not caring if it runs anyone over or not than someone who accidentally ran someone over. Wilful disregard rather than carelessness. But international harm is still worse than either

  • That instance is closing down in July, so many communities are likely moving (or the members are)

  • I dropped literally everything in your list for the reasons you outlined (except WoW, which I dropped before I knew anything about Blizzard).

    But Rowling is worse than them.

    Corporations are amoral, and entirely self serving. They will fuck over anyone if it earns the corporation a profit.

    Rowling is not amoral. Rowling is driven by hate, and her goal is not self interest, and her harm is not indiscriminate. Her harm is targeted and deliberate, and she explicitly uses her visibility to normalise and encourage harm to the people she is targeting.

    And deliberate targeted hate that tries to create more hate is worse than amoral self interest.

  • I'm in this picture, and I'm ok with that :P

  • Two party politics

  • What am I missing? If someone steals your laptop they can just mountb the drive in their own hardware irrelevant of your bios.

  • They positioned themselves as the ethical choice, financially supported a bigot, and advertised his distro, then made excuses for it when called out.

    Kinda like you're doing

  • I'm not going to dance around words because you want to protect the sensibilities of a bigot.

  • I'm not "meh" about denouncing bigots. If you've supported a bigot and you don't actively and vocally walk it back, that's not "meh". That's a refusal to acknowledge the issue and the harm done in normalising the voices and visibility of bigots

  • Nope. I'm not telling anyone to avoid Framework or anyone else.

    But they're not the "ethical" choice. They're another shitty company doing shitty things that hurt people. That should be a factor in your purchasing decision, but it shouldn't be the whole of it, because it's pretty much impossible to exist without supporting companies like that in some way or another.

  • I'm not in the habit of assuming companies that knowingly supported bigots, the benefit of the doubt. If there isn't a clear, loud and non ambiguous walking back of their clear, loud and unambiguous support, then why would you, I or anyone else assume they have done so?

  • Same guy, but no, I was referring to Omarchy and DHH himself.
