I think it’s a good idea to separate the politicians and party leaders from the rank-and-file members.

The organization knows what it is they are doing. But the members… I think of lot of them are just completely deceived in various ways about various things.

So when someone says “republicans want a dictatorship” it can be true in one sense, and nonsense in another.

That’s helpful to know, but man, that’s hardly fair compensation for such a terrible thing.

They’re only asking for 38,000? Seems really low…

Absolutely! But to accuse them wanting a dictatorship will only drive them further into the deception, because they aren’t lying when they say they don’t want it, despite them supporting a path towards it.

Accusing a person of lying when they are not willing always get a strong reaction against you because they believe they are morally right and you are lying to them.

In supporting trump, they support someone who would gladly take that role if he could. I agree.

But the contradiction is deep within themselves not just held for outsiders to see. They aren’t lying when they say they support democracy and say they support trump at the same time. They’re contradicting themselves, but they aren’t lying. I don’t know why that happens, but I guess they have been deceived.

But it’s important to have that distinction, otherwise we dehumanize millions of people, and destroy hope of showing them the truth.

I can agree that Trump and those like him are moving towards that kind of power structure.

And yes that means that those who support trump and deny that want a dictatorship and at some level contradicting themselves.

But that is a different thing tham actually wanting a dictatorship.

Misrepresenting people will get us no where. It will dehumanize those we disagree with and will create enemies from those who could be allies.

If by conservatives you mean Americans who describe themselves as conservatives… that’s a ridiculous claim. I don’t think I’ve ever met a Republican who openly wanted a dictator. I’m sure they exist, but it’s not the majority view within Republican voters.

If you mean something else, please define what you mean by conservative.

That’s very true. But, it’s something that appears to be way more common that it uses to be.

Maybe I’m just missing some crucial info, but an amusement park seems like a fundamentally different thing than software.

Is it possible to add a firewall rule to block it?

Did they clarify how they track “the same device”? If I replace my SSD, is that’s new device? Gpu? Motherboard? Cpu? Get more ram? Reinstall the OS?

And even then, I usually install on 2-3 different devices. And what happens when 10 years down the road I want to okay it again and install it on 2 more devices?

That’s… stupid honestly

So … they raped each other? They could both go to jail?

It is the easiest way. It’s also the coward’s way.

Link?

Honestly, I bet he has the skills, he just didn’t use them because he didn’t care, or is overworked, or for whatever reason.

My thoughts exactly.

They are overtly sexual… but not moreso than many other ads.

Forced relocation of more than 20 miles or so (some reasonable amount that doesn’t require a move) should not allow a company to get out of severance. That should be illegal.

It really depends on the topic. The big topics in Lemmy are better. But there’s a lot of niche content that just isn’t there.

What were the reasons?
