@Bebo There’s been evidence for a long time that pythagoras was more cult-leader than mathematician, and his cult falsely attributed lots of things to him.

@Telorand I think he lost the “not fascism” vote by providing direct military support to an ongoing genocide

@Telorand it’s one hundred percent black and white for me and your ambivalence on the matter disgusts me.

@DarkGamer There is a difference between promoting something and being the sole source of it. They used appropriate and clear language and you purposefully misunderstood them to make an asinine point.

Sorry for the daily mail link, but:

New York District Attorney Cyrus Vance (pictured above) has been an outspoken critic of Apple’s end-to-end encryption policy, saying ‘they have taken away one of our best sources of information. Just because they say so.’

@Sethayy the existence of people not offended by something prejudiced always seems to be dragged out as a justification for that prejudice.

If some people being offended isn’t reason enough not to say something, then it stands to reason that some people not being offended isn’t a reason why it’s okay.

If it is, then there are definitely people who are offended.

@MagicShel I know this is hard to understand, but genocide affects our decision making, and some of us would even prefer our country to fall to complete ruin than be aparty to it. Never again isn’t “never again unless it would be politically expedient”

Do you understand what I mean? That there are lines that can never, ever be crossed?

Do you understand why I’d never be able to look in the mirror again after that?

@MagicShel We’re making it much much much much worse, providing direct financial and military aid to a country actively slaughtering tens of thousands and displacing millions to facilitate ethnic cleansing.

It’s not that trump wouldn’t be worse, just they supporting Biden is totally and completely unconscionable. And to do so sacrifices a piece of your soul.

@MagicShel voting for a genocidal monster isn’t standing up to fascism. There is a rot deep in your soul if you’ll let yourself fall that far.
