Do you believe pro-IDF groups should be allowed on campuses despite the fact that they are genocidal collaborators?

That’s not what it means

That’s because “cancel culture” doesn’t actually mean anything.

Feel how you want, but Spotify has a very clear policy on hateful content. And sure, maybe you won’t listen to it, but do you know who will? Bigoted psychos that will go out and commit a hate crime. Allowing content like this on a popular platform will lead to hate crimes. There is nothing wrong with private platforms choosing to not platform certain kinds of content and it is entirely within their right.

Spotify has the right to deplatfom hateful content and doing so is the ethical thing to do.

The act of book banning itself isn’t the real issue. The issue is the homophobia/transphobia motivating the conservative book banning.

I tend to interpret ‘tankie’ to be people who support Lenin’s dictatorship of the proletariat or similar ideas

That’s just Marxism. That idea started with Marx, not Lenin. He even talks about it in the Communist Manifesto, saying:

We have seen above, that the first step in the revolution by the working class is to raise the proletariat to the position of ruling class to win the battle of democracy. The proletariat will use its political supremacy to wrest, by degree, all capital from the bourgeoisie, to centralise all instruments of production in the hands of the State, i.e., of the proletariat organised as the ruling class; and to increase the total productive forces as rapidly as possible.

Not even mentioning his Critique of the Gotha Programme where he talks about the dictatorship of the proletariat and the transition from capitalism to communism extensively. It’s okay to not be a Marxist, but it’s just factually incorrect to claim that the dictatorship of the proletariat isn’t integral to Marx’s understanding of the transition to communism.

We used to support social mobility

When? Under slavery? Under Jim Crow? Under neoliberalism/Reagan?

and home ownership

Maybe to get settlers to move west for manifest destiny.

There are many, many good reasons to not use Brave. Being spyware is not one of those.

Boycott Brave for real reasons like their CEO and owner being a raging anti-gay reactionary or because of their cryptocurrency bs.

Unfortunately, adoption has been slow and Alliance for Open Media are pushing back somewhat (especially Google^[1], who leads the group) in favor of their inferior .avif format.
