when peaceful change is made impossible, what else is left but violence? Surrendering?

i think the rich are doing so horrible stuff that if exposed it will either finally be the last straw, or it will expose that we dont deserve to live as species if it isnt.

hackers wasting their talents on petty things like this. they should dig up evidence of corruption and what the rich are doing behind closed doors and such and demand ransom for that. then release it anyway after getting paid and get lauded as heroes on top of getting money.

or rather their foot at the door. they just need SOMETHING and once they get started they can just keep making things worse. its never about protecting kids.

its sickening that the billionaires could just openly reveal all the horrifying things they do to people and no one would care, but only if things directly affect your personal life people care even a little. They could livestream themselves cannibalizing a live child and it wouldnt cause anything but momentary outrage that maybe lasts a bit longer than average.

Its good that people are rising up against this shit because all the negatives are true, but at the same time i have started to feel we really dont deserve good things.

that is my point exactly. doesnt matter how nice the game looks, if its uncreative crap nothing will save that.

to me, aaa = mark of inferior quality, barring some exceptions

it would give good starting point for proper research though

protesting is one of the few “real” things left to us, it would be horrifying it that got commercialised too.

i wonder what the most obscure god was

maybe you will uncover the secret language of your ass

firefox really shouldnt be our only line of defence for decent browser…

no, i think its about there being something better than all… * this *. And how to be better and maybe get out of here after you die. Though I think it servers only as a general guide and you are supposed to find your own way.

Then at some point priests noticed how they can use religion to their own ends and they started twisting it and inventing more stuff and now here we are.

if you dont block some applications from internet, they definitely are listening somehow. not sure if they can bypass the microphone permission, but if any has constant access then that is that. what i meant that the phone itself doesnt seem to have thing where it listens on you. average user who is not technically adept at all will have their phone riddled with spyware so no wonder they are seeing targeted ads.

Fakebook is just facilitating the ads, the advertising companies are the ones with the data. Though what facebook does with it is likely that they try manipulate you through their algorithm, suggesting stuff they want you to see based on the data collected. Be it for increased addiction, manipulation of opinions or something else.

its same mentality as drug supplier avoiding to get high on his own suppily.

those are indeed quite interesting. i’m also not impressed with the church for branding them heretics. the religious reasons provided seem more like excuses to cover secular reasons they wanted to silence these.

some of these seem quite apt for modern day too, as a resistance to how things are.

and ironically one could likely draw more people in by openly declaring yourself as a heretic if you wanted to revive these 😆

gnostic faith has quite interesting ideas, it kind of makes a lot of sense too imo. its also a bit concerning about some things. I also heard it would have been the mainline christianity at some point but then something happened and it was branded heresy and we got the current one instead.

i talked about subject like this with someone who is an anarchist and attends kind of protests that can get you in trouble and he wasnt that worried about it. It was in finland though, so there is that too. if i lived in america i would be way more worried too considering what is happening there.

But lets assume that your microphone is recording everything you say to some llm, and everyone else too. imagine the shitshow it must be to sort all that data, considering how unreliable llm are. There is no way to know for sure what the original meaning and intention of words is without actual human confirming it. there would be so much constantly going on that even with decent automation it would be nightmare to manage, i think.

and the subject you joked about is so innocent too. If you were talking about violently opposing the regime as a joke or something else like that, then it would be prudent to practice better security. I have occasionally tried to investigate if my phone is listening even though it doesnt indicate so, but i havent noticed anything that would point to that. I dont know THAT much about it either though. Though if you have all the bloatware installed and llm stuff enabled then it probably does listen constantly, but i dont think you would have them since you are worried about this.

There is also this nice program called tracercontrol, it lets you know what spying libraries programs have on your phone and you can also cut them off internet with it, and also selectively block the traffic so only necessary traffic is allowed (it does require some getting used to, but its not that difficult imo.) There is some version of it in googles malwareshop called google play, but i downloaded it from f-droid. There is also similar program called re-think, which is even more heavyduty, though i think it uses battery faster. but at least you can control even better what goes in and out of your phone with it.

And why do you even care what the companies think about you? also, isnt it better less accurate information they have about you? let them think you are moving to canada with 15 kids, to decorate garages with ornamental potatoes and live off the good wibes of the universe.

who runs the courts though?

but is that reputation based on geniunely good things, or spin and propaganda?
