The market (and people out to make a quick buck) will always move faster than the govt can respond.
”The market” will do this anyway so we shouldn’t do anything smuglord galaxy-brain

That’s just the same thing I wrote, basically. You’re still saying it’s their own fault that poor people are poor, except with an extra veneer of condescension.

Doubt. They’ll find some other money trap to fall into in a week unless they’re taught to actually be smarter about their finances.
”Poor people are poor because of their inferior nature” Fuck off.

You can look at this from another perspective, which is the benefit of allowing a scam like this to continue vs. regulating it out of existence. The only upsides of allowing this to continue is the company perpetuating it making money and a smug lemmitor getting to feel superior to the poors and disabled people, so it’s obvious that it shouldn’t be allowed to exist.

Not just science, factory equipment that needs ancient computers to function too.

You sure got me there buddy, I’m so owned!!
It’s so funny how much you lemmitors whine about piracy, considering even Reddit, the biggest corporate bootlicker site, allows piracy talk.

I like reminding people that Netflix were totally fine with Chappelle’s transphobic shit, you shouldn’t give them your money.

So what, it’s better to have Nazis and pedos out in the open? Do you think you’ll give them a West Wing speech and they’ll magically realize the error of their ways? Nazis aren’t looking for people to challenge their views.
- Comment on Can we defederate from rdq2.net? 1 year ago:
This thread is about lemm.ee, the instance your account is on, defederating from a Nazi pedo instance. That means not having them in your corner of the internet. Why are you arguing against this?
- Comment on Can we defederate from rdq2.net? 1 year ago:
That’s definitely not universal. I personally have heard people say racist, transphobic, etc. stuff without anyone shunning them because they were co-workers, relatives and other groups you can’t shun without things getting awkward. Besides, aren’t you in fact advocating for not having Nazi and pedo shit around, since the obvious analogy for being shunned IRL would be getting banned IRL for being a Nazi or pedo?
- Comment on Can we defederate from rdq2.net? 1 year ago:
if you say something horrible you get shunned
very-intelligent People are rational actors and naturally know that bad ideas are bad.
If that’s how it worked we wouldn’t have fascists everywhere right now.

There aren’t any poor capitalist countries.
Moldova, Georgia and Ukraine are famously doing very well economically.

Pretty fucked up to accuse our userbase of spreading CSAM. Call us Putin-loving China bots or whatever, but accusing us of actual crimes with no evidence is too much.

I honestly think this is the reason why message boards generally don’t have the feature to attach images to posts anymore.
