I mean I agree that most of our food-based practices are terrible and I still eat most meat so maybe I’m just a hypocrite.

Do all pf these things still imply some form of ownership, natural hierarchy? Are numbers racist now? Whenever I type 1 over 2, I think about black people getting whipped. :(

I mean none of these things need to mean slavery unless you’re so steeped in guilt and shame and anger that everything does
Seriously like I literally never once thought about slavery whenever typing “master” until these fucking people brought it up. Like maybe we can abolish the stock market or something, changing master to main is just masturbating

It’s not that simple.
Here’s an example: Amazon could outfit all of their delivery vehicles with open wifi networks. Every Alexa device calls home when a truck drives by.
Here’s another: you may have a guest wifi, or your neighbor, or their neighbor. All it needs is one.
Yeah of course there are solutions to faraday cage it away from the world. But all they need is one connection. You have to stop it forever.
