My laptop hasn't had stickers since a CTO asked why mine didn't have any stickers like the ones on the laptops of his cool cloud team. Personally I've found laptop stickers bad taste since then.

To me stickers on laptops are as tasteless and kitschy as tattoos. I would never get a tattoo for the same reason I would never put a sticker on my laptop.

Besides nobody gives a shit about your stupid political opinions or the software stack you use.

They won't give a shit about your political opinions as long as it's one of those in the linked gallery of corporate-friendly pre-approved ones.

Anything right of center and suddenly people start caring very much.

Of course, that's another thing. The site is full of "down with the system" types which are, for some reason, oblivious to the irony of their values being aligned with the corporate values of businesses that have a valuation of trillions.

Left of center types have worked for decades on being ignored while right of center types are going through something of a resurgance right now after being rightfully relegated to the thrash heap of history and tend to feel persecuted if someone disagrees with them. For those right of center types freedom of speech seems to cut only in one way and it, unsurprisingly, evokes more disagreement. It must suck to be right of center.

> keeping women chained to their desks and away from children

> glorification of every other sexual special interest except the productive one

Yikes, someone should check your harddrives

Those are your arguments, a stupid fucking comic and calling someone a paedophile.

Once either of you present an argument worthy of respect within a civil and democratic society, I will respond in kind. Until then, statements like "the glorification of every other sexual special interest except the productive one" will continue to get the responses they deserve.

What do you think I have on my hard drives? I'm genuinely confused by that comment.

Of course only a pedophile would even think of having intercourse with a woman who has not yet entered menopause.

I should probably also get the lethal injection for being a product of such a sick and depraved congress, because apparently a child is guilty of the crimes of the father.

sometimes i forget that other critics of capital can also have regressive troglodyte opinions on gender roles and sexuality. thanks for the reminder!

What if furthering the human species through the use of stable two-parent households happens to be my kink? You wouldn't kink shame, would you?

It will always be funny to me how little it takes for the mask of limitless tolerance to slip and reveal what you people think of those of us who dare even dream of deviating from the prevailing social norms.

This would do rounds on TruthSocial or X, The Everything App. Might I suggest moving this conversation over there?
