  • Yeah, no.

    First off: payment processors (yet again) don’t get to dictate what I as a customer am allowed to buy or not. Their reasoning doesn’t matter. If they prohibited sexual material (most do) then they are effectively trying to ban me from consuming or using sexual materials. Fuck. That. Shit. I don’t care for their reasoning, they are a payment processor, process payments and GTFO.

    Secondly: this has nothing to do with refunds or chargebacks. Sex is the biggest product on the internet, still, and they’d bank like there is no tomorrow would they allow it. A more realistic scenario is that some religious organizations got their hands in there somewhere as they tend to do, in an effort to ensure that their sick mentality gets applied for everyone because there is no religion like a fucked up religion



  • I think that’s more a societal issue than a personal one. I think most anti gays either don’t really have a big issue with gays personally, or are just plain gay themselves (it’s a trope at this point for a reason) but they can’t express this freely

    I think most anti gay sentiment is just people shouting along with everyone else even though most people like gays or just don’t care.

    Basically, being different is always a good reason to be scapegoated. You are Jewish? I have this problem which I can shove on your back, making it your problem. This too applies to gays, and what not.

    This is coming from a married bisexual man whose had group fun with loads of gay guys (and girls and trans and…). Don’t ever think I can freely say to people in my social circle what I do in my private live, because I can’t.



  • No it would not.

    Calling for something reasonable after proven evidence is submitted that the person broke the law should not be criminalized, though even with that there is a time and place. Submit that stuff to a court, not to twitter.

    Either way, I’m talking about making random unsubstantiated claims or over generalizing claims like “all Jews are evil because they all support genocide” which obviously is bullshit



  • That law should be applied to anyone with a following of more than 100 people. If you influence more people than you can on a small square then the rules should change and you shouldn’t be allowed to claim whatever shit you want and claim freedom of speech.

    I’d make those rules a lot stricter as well


  • Blockchain has VERY few practical applications. Even cryptocurrencies work very badly because of blockchains.

    AI at its current level is also about as reliable as a hippie tripping balls on mushrooms. I’ve seen some actual practical applications where AI found new mathematics, for example, and that is great! However, I can literally claim that 99% of AI applications currently are pure shit and not be off by much

    Are you capable of reading? There was a very clear point there.

    Then; if your employer makes 10,000 times what you make, find another fucking employer.

    That, too, is based on me assuming that your numbers aren’t just pulled out of your ass btw. This entire "we can work only 16 hours and humanity will be fine requires a huge Wikipedia style <citation needed>

    I’m not talking about abusive companies and bosses. I’m talking about people thinking they don’t have to work at all. Wr all have to work, period. Could we work less? Maybe, could be, sure, let’s look into that. Could we all flat out stop working? When were all dead we can, sure! Until then though, someone has to put bread on the table, LITERALLY. Without bakers there won’t be bread. Without supermarket employees, and farm hands and truck drivers doing their shitty jobs, guess what? Go into the forest and forage your own damn food (and starve in the process).

    If you’re incapable of understanding that basic point then you should go touch some grass before responding. We live in a real world that has a lot of sucky problems that still need to be resolved and you have no fucking clue as to how good we have it compared to 100 years ago. Hell, I grew up 40 years ago and I know how much better many things are now compared to then, work wise too.

    Grow up, all of you
