Pretty sure that anti-anti-fascism is just straight-up a Nazi trope.

How is it remotely sane to give support to any candidate who backs an ongoing genocide? It’s only sane to do so if you’re apathetic to the said victims of genocide and know that their ghosts won’t affect you after they’ve been murdered by the politicians you’ve elected.
If there are 2 buttons, and both will result in the commission of Genocide, you don’t press either button. This is why this meme wouldn’t work in its usual context if the buttons said that.
Any voter or potential voter who has moral principles and values should withhold support for any candidate who supports or enables the most serious crime known to humanity.
If a political opponent of Adolf Hitler was vying for election in Germany in 1932 or 1933, and that political opponent also had the same views towards Jews and/or other ethnic, racial, religious and national groups as Adolf Hitler, with the same intention to commit and use the power of their office to facilitate genocide against those groups as the NSDAP has, you don’t vote for that other candidate, even if they maintain free elections within a fascist Germany. On principle, every person has a moral responsibility not to support, nor facilitate the crime of Genocide. A true democracy allows for true political expression of the population and doesn’t force its electorate to back a Genocide.
I hope I’m not being OTT or patronizing. When talking about an ongoing Genocide against a group it’s off to reduce the (unfortunately) political issue of Genocide prevention to the less serious language used in US domestic politics. And there ought not to be a reason why Palestine is less important than Ukraine or Russian influence in Europe. I mean Palestine is fucked right now and has been since 1948. Why would European people let Palestine be fucked for decades since it doesn’t affect Europe but care about Ukraine since it does? I dunno such a shit situation.
You can buy paprika at Tescos but British food is still shit.
Maybe the end solution is a distributed system
I think this already exists and is called PeerTube. In my experience it doesn’t work very well.
I remember when apple put out a software update to intentionally throttle the phone’s processor, to save charge on it’s irreplacable battery. I hope this prevents companies doing this sort of shit as well.
Based.
I generally don’t care about people mocking heads of state but saying Xi Xinping is either Hitler or Winnie the Pooh is offensive.
If security is that important then why wouldn’t apple make the phone display a pop-up or splashcreen to the user informing them of the modification, whilst still allowing the phone to be used? There is no need to render the device unusable, just leave the choice up to the user. I think it is much more likely that these measures are taken to monopolise the repair of iPhones and overcharge customers. I think talking about this as a life-threatening problem is quite overdramatic.
Apart from Nazis.
I think it’s much easier to discover new content on Lemmy.
