Vote with your wallet

When are we going to finally accept that this is nothing but a delusion? How many failed boycotts over and over will it take?

As I said, the things you don't get by fighting are purely concessions so you shut up. When you do shut up, they get taken away. Every single fundamental working right we have was fought for with blood, not votes.

What corpos are really afraid of is us organizing. They have always been. That's all we have to do. Advocating for people to send emails (since none of them are going to have the money to hire lobbying firms) will just feed them back into the system, the same way voting does. Makes you feel realized when it never fundamentally changes anything for good.

Working within the system will never give us what we need. The system is made for them. All we get are concessions that then get taken away when we're no longer a threat. No company, no matter how much popular support, is ever going to allow this. You'd have far bigger chances of making far bigger changes if you joined an org. Any org.

Why is it always the Save The Children Act and not the Erradicate Trans People Act?

Hitler's administration was a bunch of drug addicts, the economy 5 slave owner megacorps beaten by all other industrialized nations. They weren't even all that well mobilized before the total war speech. Then he killed himself in embarrassment. How is any of that "effective"?

The correct term for nazi sympathizer is nazi. The correct term for nazi enabler is nazi.

That's called market socialism if you're interested in reading about it.

Labour unions are not the same as a communist party or vanguard but to claim they're not mostly organized and consisting of socialists is just immensely naive and stupid.

Then make your own instance and turn it into a safety bubble just for you. Don't ruin it for everyone else.

In my eyes my problem with moving to SUSE or Ubuntu is that it's the same thing. A corporation backed or straight up corporation developed and owned distro still has ONE failure point. Right now SUSE are "the good guys", but what if they get bought? What if there's a new CEO? What if they suddenly just decide to abuse their power? Then you're simply screwed. Red Hat were also seen as "one of the good guys" some months ago, but the way things work, companies always end up pivoting towards what makes them more money. Them being ethical is nothing but a luxury that happens if they can afford it and if we are lucky.

I'm moving to Debian once I get my new PC.

Man I love using Firefox.

Not being aware of something existing doesn't mean it doesn't exist. You are not the center of the world. Jesus christ.
