activelow“It is for the member state to identify possible solutions. Any solution must be in line with EU law and respect the principle of the primacy of EU law.”Jul 04 02:47

activelowthanJul 04 02:50
activelowtoo i would be curious how some supreme court would rule if some EU institutions approved experimental vaccines which in principle couldn't have been to funnel hundreds of millions and billions of cash into shareholder pockets (CureVac who presented their research results a vaccine couldn't have been approved to begin with)Jul 04 02:53
activelowit was german government being biggest shareholder of Biontec iircJul 04 02:54

activelowpolitical opponents hacking and slaying each other currently is a distraction from the fact no government could legally rule in Germany anymore without violating EU treaty and german constitution when proceeding with their corona coin nonsense to dump trillions of cash.Jul 04 04:29
activelowsince German Supreme Court too ruled some specific social security legislation did violate german constitution, since year 2000 already.Jul 04 04:31
activelowso either any future government violated german constitution and EU treaties by dumping cash and bloating debt, or an austerity policy violated german constitution (related to social security which supreme court ruled)Jul 04 04:32
activelowthis was a masterpiece of EU politics, to violate both: EU treaties with regards to excessive spendings for those who had benefit (shareholders), in parallel to violating german constitution due to a strict austerity agenda against those who couldn't defend themselves (younger generation, youth unemployment etc)Jul 04 04:38

LibrarianAnd that's why you have no credibility left: because you stupidly attempted to conflate the definitions of those two words.Jul 04 13:53

LibrarianIf you deprive me of that choice, then you're forcefully imposing your will about the product and benefit of my labor.Jul 04 13:54
immibisif you deprive me of that choice, then you're forcefully imposing your will about the product. (Nothing to do with labour!)Jul 04 13:55
LibrarianThat means you're enslaving me. That's the opposite of "totally free."Jul 04 13:55
LibrarianOf course it has something to do with labor. I labored to earn my TV.Jul 04 13:56
LibrarianI just told you that above.Jul 04 13:56
Librarian06:54 < Librarian> My TV is my benefit from my labor.Jul 04 13:56
immibisNo, your TV is a TV.Jul 04 13:56
LibrarianYou didn't know that people get TVs by earning money with their labor?Jul 04 13:56
immibisThere are many ways people can get TVsJul 04 13:56
immibisearning money is not one of them. Spending money is.Jul 04 13:57
LibrarianNot everybody is a looter, like socialists are.Jul 04 13:57
LibrarianMost peaceful people actually *do* acquire their TVs by working for them.Jul 04 13:57
immibisworking is not one of them. Spending money is.Jul 04 13:57
immibiseven more accurately, buying a TV is one way.Jul 04 13:57
LibrarianMoney is just a symbol of labor performed that others value.Jul 04 13:58
immibisa "symbol"?Jul 04 13:58
LibrarianTo get the money to buy a TV, they have to labor, or benefit from someone else's labor.Jul 04 13:58
LibrarianAnd it has to be labor that created value for another person.Jul 04 13:58
LibrarianMay I suggest taking an Economics 101 class? This concept is really, really basic.Jul 04 13:59
immibisThere are many ways people can get money. Working for a wage or salary is one of them.Jul 04 13:59
LibrarianAnd most of the other ways are also the result of *someone else* working for a wage or salary (or for themselves) and then consensually giving another person the results of their labor.Jul 04 13:59
LibrarianIt's only a tiny minority of people who get theirs by non-consensual means, and that's how we tell who the psychopaths are.Jul 04 14:00
immibisIf you can get away with printing money, you're objectively stupid for choosing to work for money instead of printing itJul 04 14:00
LibrarianThey say about 1% of the population suffers from your mental illness.Jul 04 14:01

LibrarianNow, let me ask you the question back, to make sure you were able to see and read my answer:Jul 04 14:07
LibrarianWhy is it my choice, who gets to benefit from my TV?Jul 04 14:07
immibisbecause you're the one who possesses the TVJul 04 14:08
immibisTo say anyone other than the possessor can make that choice, implies a forceful impositionJul 04 14:08
LibrarianBut to say anyone other than the *earner* can make that choice, is also a forceful imposition.Jul 04 14:10
LibrarianSo that's why the person who earned it with their labor, gets that choice.Jul 04 14:10
LibrarianI can buy a TV with the results of my labor, and then give it to someone as a gift. They get to possess it because I consented to their possession of it, as the earner.Jul 04 14:11
LibrarianSo earning something by choosing to labor for it is not a forceful imposition.Jul 04 14:11
LibrarianThat's why I copied and pasted my answer over and over again, so you couldn't miss it. I said:Jul 04 14:11
Librarian07:06 < Librarian> 06:54 < Librarian> My TV is my benefit from my labor.Jul 04 14:11

Librarian08:32 < Librarian> 08:28 < Librarian> Your fear, your frustration, your anger are preventing you from narrowing down which aspect you're asking about.Jul 04 15:33
Librarian08:32 < Librarian> 08:28 < Librarian> That's "cognitive dissonance."Jul 04 15:33
immibisLibrarian: I didn't ask if you knew their phone numbers. Do you know your parents?Jul 04 15:34
LibrarianRight, but you won't say which aspect you *are* asking about.Jul 04 15:34
immibisLibrarian: Do you know anyone?Jul 04 15:34
LibrarianThat's because you're suffering from extreme cognitive dissonance right now.Jul 04 15:34
LibrarianRight, but you won't say which aspect you *are* asking about.Jul 04 15:34
LibrarianThat's because you're suffering from extreme cognitive dissonance right now.Jul 04 15:34
immibisWhen I ask "is Linux software or hardware" do I need to specify which aspects of software and hardware I am asking about?Jul 04 15:35
LibrarianThe topic of "knowing" people came up because I cited evidence that 99% of the population *does not* suffer from psychopathy as you do.Jul 04 15:35
LibrarianNot for 99% of people, because 99% of people don't suffer from your desire to change the definitions of words as a symptom of their psychopathy.Jul 04 15:36
immibisNo, you cited that 99% of the population say Linux is software, because everyone you know would say Linux is software.Jul 04 15:36
LibrarianThere are indeed 1% of you who do that, so you will need to be very precise with your words for your fellow 1%.Jul 04 15:36
immibisYou can only claim that if you know 99% of the population.Jul 04 15:36
immibisYour name-calling accusations of mental illness are completely irrelevant, I'm afraid.Jul 04 15:36
LibrarianRight, and the specific aspect I would need to know is, "do they suffer from psychopathy as you do?"Jul 04 15:36
immibisDoes that tell you whether someone would say Linux was software?Jul 04 15:37
LibrarianAnd the answer to that is yes, I do know the probability of their suffering from your psychopathy.Jul 04 15:37
immibispsychopath -> Linux == hardware. Not psychopath -> Linux == software. Is that the principle being applied here?Jul 04 15:37
LibrarianYes, because non-psychopaths don't try to redefine words to justify their psychopathic greed and violence.Jul 04 15:37
LibrarianOnly you and your fellow 1% of psychopathy sufferers do that.Jul 04 15:37
immibisI recommend that you take a flight to the middle of communist China, and find a random person on the road in rural bumfuck nowhere, and ask them whether Linux is software.Jul 04 15:38
LibrarianSo they can tell me they don't know what those words mean?Jul 04 15:38
LibrarianThat's what most people who don't know the definitions of words mean.Jul 04 15:38
immibisprecisely. Except they will tell you it in Chinese. And they will probably just tell you to fuck off. In Chinese.Jul 04 15:38
LibrarianWere you completely unaware that non-psychopaths will honestly just tell you that they don't know something? :DJul 04 15:38
immibisDoes that constitute a statement that Linux is software?Jul 04 15:39
LibrarianIt's only you psychopaths who will just *make it up* at random when they don't know something.Jul 04 15:39
immibis"I don't know what those words mean" == "Yes" according to your diseased mindJul 04 15:39
LibrarianNot at all. You just made that up at random.Jul 04 15:39
LibrarianThat was a symptom of your psychopathy, right there, that invention of that outright lie that you just performed.Jul 04 15:40
immibisLibrarian: You are telling me that 99% of the population will say "Linux is software". Now you are telling me that most of the population will say "I don't know what those words mean". Therefore "I don't know what those words mean" == "Linux is software". QEDJul 04 15:40
LibrarianNo, I'm not conflating those two. I'm pointing out that neither of those responses constitute "linux is hardware."Jul 04 15:41
immibisWhat is the relevant? You claim that 99% of the population will say "Linux is softawre"Jul 04 15:41
immibisrelevance* software*Jul 04 15:42
LibrarianNot at all. I'm pointing out htat neither of those responses constitute "linux is hardware."Jul 04 15:42

immibisYou claimED that 99% of the population will say "Linux is software"Jul 04 15:43
immibisAre you now claiming that is false?Jul 04 15:43
MinceRthis is what the IT industry should have done to red china too, when they started their industrial espionage campaignJul 04 15:43
immibisYour fear, your frustration, your anger are preventing you from responding. That's "cognitive dissonance."Jul 04 15:44
LibrarianI just scrolled up and can't find anywhere I said that 99% of the population will say "Linux is software."Jul 04 15:45
LibrarianSo, it looks to me like that's just another example of your pathological lying.Jul 04 15:46
LibrarianWhich, again, is a symptom of your psychopathy.Jul 04 15:46
LibrarianQED.Jul 04 15:46
immibis<immibis> so what? 99% of the population don't apply the word "software" to the Linux kernelJul 04 15:46
immibis<Librarian> That's obviously false. Everyone I know knows the difference between software and hardware.Jul 04 15:46
immibis<immibis> do you know 99% of the population?Jul 04 15:46
LibrarianOh, were you trying to say there that 99% of people don't know?Jul 04 15:47
LibrarianBecause the point I was making was that 99% of people won't say it's hardware.Jul 04 15:47
LibrarianBecause 99% of people don't suffer from your psychopathy.Jul 04 15:47
immibis99% of the population don't apply the word "software" to the Linux kernelJul 04 15:47

LibrarianAnswer my question first: were you trying to say that 99% of people don't know? Because the point I was making was that 99% of people won't say it's hardware, because 99% of people don't suffer from your psychopathy.Jul 04 15:48

immibisWhy should I answer your question when your question is only intended as a distraction from answering my question?Jul 04 15:48
LibrarianI will answer your question if you make your question  more precise.Jul 04 15:48
XRevan86Well, the branding is not a static thing, and so I don't think they'll actually have troubles, especially with premium wine enthusiasts.Jul 04 15:49
immibisMy question is just as precise as your question which preceded it using the same wording.Jul 04 15:49
immibisAre you saying your question was imprecise?Jul 04 15:49
LibrarianYour fear, your frustration, your anger are preventing you from asking a question precise enough that it can be answered precisely.Jul 04 15:49
immibisOr rather, your statementJul 04 15:49
immibisAre you saying your own statement was imprecise?Jul 04 15:49
LibrarianThat is a symptom of your cognitive dissonance.Jul 04 15:49
immibisAre you saying your own statement was so imprecise that you can neither agree nor disagree with it?Jul 04 15:49
LibrarianYes. My statement was imprecise because your question was imprecise.Jul 04 15:49
LibrarianNow, if you're not terrified, please make it more precise.Jul 04 15:50
immibis<Librarian> 07:59 < Librarian> Oh, I understand the distinction just fine, but in neither case do 99% of the population (which doesn't suffer from psychopathy) apply the word "freedom."Jul 04 15:50

LibrarianYes, of course I agree with it, because you haven't shown any evidence of dictionaries that *do* include compulsion, coercion, and violence in their definition of "freedom."Jul 04 15:52
LibrarianI already said that several times.Jul 04 15:52
immibisSo obviously that statement is clear enough for you.Jul 04 15:53
LibrarianYes; you have provided no evidence to the contrary. Despite being asked to, several times.Jul 04 15:53
immibisSo why is this very similar statement unclear? "To neither operating system do 99% of the population (which doesn't suffer from psychopathy) apply the word "software.""Jul 04 15:54
immibisIs the statement clear, or not?Jul 04 15:54
LibrarianNo. It is not clear. What does "neither operating system" mean?Jul 04 15:54
LibrarianThat looks like word salad to me.Jul 04 15:54
immibisWindows or LinuxJul 04 15:54
XRevan86but of course if they are to make an adjective again, then it will quickly become a problem, which is pretty hilariousJul 04 15:54
LibrarianBut neither of us was talking about Windows either, so that's still unclear.Jul 04 15:55
immibisWhat is unclear about the statement? Its purpose?Jul 04 15:55
XRevan86It means they can say "sparkling wine from Champagne" but not "Champagne sparkling wine".Jul 04 15:55
LibrarianI guess we should just chalk this one up to your shitty communication skills?Jul 04 15:55

MinceRlolJul 04 19:36

psyminXRevan86, schestowitz has been talking about libera.chat using microsoft servicesJul 04 19:38

schestowitzit's a monopolists' talking pointJul 04 19:40
psyminXRevan86, discovery aside, the defacto standard for centralized, closed source, real-time group text chat, seems to be Discord.  IRC is a barrier to entry that brings more relevant engagement for free software stuff, in my opinion.Jul 04 19:40

XRevan86gustaf: I've made such comparisons earlier today.Jul 04 23:05

gustafah ok!Jul 04 23:06

Ariadnegood, audacity should be cancelledJul 04 23:06
XRevan86Ariadne: I want CrystalMath to experience cognitive dissonance from *wanting* to cancel Audacity.Jul 04 23:07

CrystalMathi think people don't understand what cancel culture meansJul 04 23:24
CrystalMathlike, for me, cancel culture involves unsubstantiated allegationsJul 04 23:24
CrystalMathbut for audacity you can just look into the code and find telemetryJul 04 23:24
MinceRpeople don't want to understand itJul 04 23:25
CrystalMathreally what bothers me about this is that people think it's the same when the community attacks something WITH evidence, and when the community attacks something WITHOUT evidenceJul 04 23:25
CrystalMathevidence is like the most important thing in the entire worldJul 04 23:25
MinceRnot to people who adhere to religion or feelings insteadJul 04 23:27
XRevan86CrystalMath: That's definitely not the correct definition.Jul 04 23:30
schestowitzwhat is the defence for it?Jul 04 23:31
CrystalMathdefense of audacity?Jul 04 23:33
CrystalMathi don't know, i haven't looked into thatJul 04 23:34
CrystalMatheven though i'm the usual devil's advocate here :PJul 04 23:34
Ariadnea company bought audacity, and have embedded spyware into itJul 04 23:35
*psydroid_ has quit (connection closed)Jul 04 23:35
Ariadneand have a privacy policy that they will rat you out to the fedsJul 04 23:35
AriadnebasicallyJul 04 23:35
CrystalMathaccording to the website, telemetry is opt-inJul 04 23:35
CrystalMathi wonder if it's also possible to disable at compile timeJul 04 23:36
XRevan86CrystalMath: It's hard to draw the line, but the way ye drew the line is definitely not it, that's just your trying to find a difference between what happened to freenode and what's happening to Audacity. And I don't agree with that there was no evidence either.Jul 04 23:36
Ariadneit isJul 04 23:36
Ariadnebut why deal with themJul 04 23:36
Ariadnewhen we can just forkJul 04 23:36
Ariadne:DJul 04 23:36
gustafI think the Audacity community should continue using Audacity. It was, after all, Audacity that created it Jul 04 23:36
XRevan86CrystalMath: I have indeed caught up with the reality of things late, but the Libera knew a lot more than ye and I did.Jul 04 23:36
gustafto abandon the app because of some people whining is premature Jul 04 23:36
XRevan86* the Libera peopleJul 04 23:36
CrystalMathAriadne: sure but laziness and lots more fun stuff to do and stuffJul 04 23:36
gustafI'm sure it will all work out fine in the end Jul 04 23:37
Ariadnegustaf: i propose forking the appJul 04 23:37
CrystalMathi mean, ./configure --disable-telemetryJul 04 23:37
gustafAriadne: but that sounds disloyal to the Audactiy brand! Jul 04 23:37
Ariadnedont careJul 04 23:37
CrystalMathgustaf: well i mean loyalty isn't necessary to free softwareJul 04 23:37
Ariadneno gods, no masters, no brandsJul 04 23:37
XRevan86okay, this is actually exactly like freenodeJul 04 23:37
CrystalMathXRevan86: how?Jul 04 23:38
XRevan86again with the brandJul 04 23:38
gustafok I see my sarcasm isn't really registering ;)Jul 04 23:38
gustafit will be interesting to see how this goesJul 04 23:38
XRevan86gustaf: Yea, the analogy is good.Jul 04 23:38
gustafI'm sure a lot of projects are looking at waht Audacity is doing and taking notesJul 04 23:38
CrystalMathi meanJul 04 23:38
gustaftelemetry could be a lucrative income stream Jul 04 23:39
MinceR05 003645 < XRevan86> CrystalMath: I have indeed caught up with the reality of things late, but the Libera knew a lot more than ye and I did.Jul 04 23:39
MinceRand they would never lie to people, right?Jul 04 23:39
CrystalMathi'll just compile audacity with --disable-telemetryJul 04 23:39
gustafand AFAIK there's no real clause against it in most free software licenses Jul 04 23:39
CrystalMathsimple, easy fixJul 04 23:39
XRevan86MinceR: Like they were saying that rasengan is a loon trumpist, and I didn't believe them. And then it turned out that he is.Jul 04 23:39
CrystalMathand maybe also firejail it with net=noneJul 04 23:39
XRevan86Are they liars because the truth didn't register with us back then?Jul 04 23:40
CrystalMathXRevan86: that says nothing to me about whether i want to use freenode or notJul 04 23:40
CrystalMathi mean, i'm not a loon anti-trumpistJul 04 23:40
gustafAdobe has become a stock market darling by essentially mandating phone-home software Jul 04 23:40
CrystalMathso i don't really careJul 04 23:40
XRevan86CrystalMath: It's what people call "an example"Jul 04 23:40
CrystalMathi'm okay with the owner of freenode believing in Trump, and if he believes in free speech too, that's actually *great* thenJul 04 23:40
CrystalMathfreenode was missing free speech beforeJul 04 23:41
CrystalMaththere were problems because of thatJul 04 23:41
XRevan86CrystalMath: Yea, freenode will drain the swamp of toxic channelsJul 04 23:41
XRevan86that's what was promised to usJul 04 23:41
MinceRXRevan86: ah, so one thing they said was true, therefore everything they said was trueJul 04 23:41
MinceRXRevan86: where does that put the libera staffers who signed a letter attacking RMS based on the signers' failure to understand written english and/or hearsay?Jul 04 23:42
gustafadding spyware to a program is free speech - change my mindJul 04 23:42
CrystalMathgustaf: hehJul 04 23:42
MinceRXRevan86: shall we redefine truth to make them right about that too?Jul 04 23:42
XRevan86MinceR: It all boils down to that letter?Jul 04 23:42
MinceRXRevan86: noJul 04 23:42
CrystalMathgustaf: tbh i wouldn't disallow it, if it's a free software program it can be removed, if it's not a free program you shouldn't use it anywayJul 04 23:42
MinceRXRevan86: it boils down to the word of some people (who probably heard nearly everything they wrote from tomaw) against the word of another person, and we having zero reason to trust any of those peopleJul 04 23:43
CrystalMathand audacity made it easy to remove the telemetry featuresJul 04 23:43
techrights-news#zdnet is now a #microsoft #vapourware spamming machineJul 04 23:43
gustaf...for now Jul 04 23:43
MinceR05 004057 < CrystalMath> i'm okay with the owner of freenode believing in Trump, and if he believes in free speech too, that's actually *great* thenJul 04 23:43
MinceRare lolrandom zlines "believing in free speech" too?Jul 04 23:43
CrystalMathMinceR: you mean because of exceeding the connection limit?Jul 04 23:44
MinceRit wasn't justifiedJul 04 23:44
techrights-news#zdnet and #techrepublic (same #marketing company): a propaganda front for two dying giants that think their sole problem is marketing (not enough spamming) and cannot produce compelling stuffJul 04 23:44

MinceRrightJul 04 23:44
MinceRbots like schestowitzJul 04 23:44

CrystalMathone of my friends as wellJul 04 23:44
MinceRis that free speech?Jul 04 23:44
CrystalMathyesJul 04 23:44
MinceRinterestingJul 04 23:45
CrystalMathit's a mistakeJul 04 23:45
CrystalMathnobody was banned for speechJul 04 23:45
XRevan86MinceR: Do ye want to go through what's been said by the staff?Jul 04 23:45
MinceRthere are too many damn mistakes in the operation of freenodeJul 04 23:45
schestowitz[23:43] <CrystalMath> and audacity made it easy to remove the telemetry featuresJul 04 23:45
gustafmoderation is free speech... the free speech of an orgnizationJul 04 23:45
MinceRXRevan86: no, i already haveJul 04 23:45
schestowitzit should be removed at source levelJul 04 23:45
schestowitzand eradicatedJul 04 23:45
schestowitzit's a bugJul 04 23:45
CrystalMathMinceR: actually it was that new ircd that made it hard to even see who's affectedJul 04 23:45
schestowitzin two sense of the wordJul 04 23:45
CrystalMathMinceR: it took a while to figure out what z-line affected my friendJul 04 23:45
MinceRXRevan86: maybe you want to go over the evidence the staff presented for their arguments... oh wait, they didn't present any.Jul 04 23:45
CrystalMathbut really this can be solvedJul 04 23:46
XRevan86MinceR: https://kline.sh/ point out a lie in the first three paragraphs here for instanceJul 04 23:46
-TechrightsBot-tr/#techrights-kline.sh | freenode now belongs to Andrew Lee, and I'm leaving for a new network.Jul 04 23:46
MinceRCrystalMath: yes, by using an ircd the staff understands and has read the documentation forJul 04 23:46
MinceRXRevan86: i don't know which parts are lies, as we don't know the facts, only the words of one faction against anotherJul 04 23:46
MinceRXRevan86: but if you have objective evidence, you're welcome to present it to the worldJul 04 23:46
MinceRXRevan86: it's quite clear that they can't all be rightJul 04 23:47
CrystalMathXRevan86: well okay, the first 3 paragraphs only really say "well it looks like my oligarchy is being replaced with some other oligarchy, i can't stand for that, so i'm gonna create an oligarchy-in-exile somewhere"Jul 04 23:47
schestowitzMinceR: they can be alrightJul 04 23:47
gustafMinceR: regardless of what old Freenode staffers did or did not sign, rasengan and his goons literally kicked off the FSF from Freenode Jul 04 23:47
CrystalMathXRevan86: i may see it as true, but i don't really see it as badJul 04 23:48
gustafand RMS himself is fine with FSF hosting their IRC on Libera Jul 04 23:48
MinceRand so the FSF ran into the arms of the people who wanted to cancel themJul 04 23:48
MinceRRIP, FSFJul 04 23:48
gustafdude, it's *IRC*Jul 04 23:48
CrystalMathXRevan86: someone always has operational control over the network, and i'd rather have Andrew Lee than FuchsJul 04 23:48
gustafhardly crucial Jul 04 23:48
XRevan86CrystalMath: I've seen so many "Navalny just wants to replace Putin as the tsar, there's no point", and I… am tired of this.Jul 04 23:48
MinceRyeah, IRC ran by anti-free software SJWsJul 04 23:48
MinceRalso where the FSF kept some of their meetingsJul 04 23:48
schestowitzCrystalMath: For Fuchs sake!Jul 04 23:48
gustafmailing list access is way more important to the FSFJul 04 23:48
schestowitzrelativismJul 04 23:49
schestowitzmy hand is more important than a legJul 04 23:49
MinceRbut if they declared some other medium as being more important than mailing lists, it would be OK to run their mailing lists at microsoft?Jul 04 23:49
schestowitzcan I keep both, please?Jul 04 23:49
XRevan86CrystalMath: rasengan is someone I already know is a liar, about Fuchs all I have is untrustworthy.Jul 04 23:49
CrystalMathXRevan86: so you want to look at *how* the network is run? okay, let's go to liberia's main channel and talk about how great Trump is, and how great Bernie is, as a test; which network will ban us?Jul 04 23:49
CrystalMathi mean on both networksJul 04 23:50
XRevan86so of course we can just go the "we don't know the whole truth" and just agree that literally everyone is a bad personJul 04 23:50
gustafuh, that's off-topic on LiberaJul 04 23:50
schestowitzon bothJul 04 23:50
gustafreally? Jul 04 23:50
schestowitzunless freenode realised all of "FOSS" leftJul 04 23:50
gustafoh yeah the topic says no politics Jul 04 23:50
schestowitzand now they need to reinvent themselves somehowJul 04 23:50
gustafCrystalMath: moderation is speechJul 04 23:50
XRevan86CrystalMath: I could always get myself banned by asking **on**-topic things on freenode.Jul 04 23:50
CrystalMathschestowitz: right it's not a good test, hmm... let me thinkJul 04 23:51
MinceRXRevan86: we already _know_ there are bad persons on both sidesJul 04 23:51
CrystalMathit would have to be a long term thingJul 04 23:51
MinceRand also at oftcJul 04 23:51
CrystalMathlike creating a far-right and far-left channel on both networksJul 04 23:51
schestowitzsince 2009 our way for dealing with OT was branch out to a -social channelJul 04 23:51
schestowitzwhat is alt left?Jul 04 23:52
schestowitzlol!Jul 04 23:52
schestowitzyou're like Trump nowJul 04 23:52
XRevan86CrystalMath: A pro-Hitler and a pro-Stalin channelsJul 04 23:52
CrystalMathi didn't say alt-leftJul 04 23:52
schestowitzor the friends of HRC Jul 04 23:52
schestowitzwho made up that ridiculous termJul 04 23:52
schestowitzlater weaponised by CheetoJul 04 23:52
XRevan86and then when both get banned, we'll call Libera centristJul 04 23:52
CrystalMathXRevan86: no, it's anti-free speechJul 04 23:52
CrystalMathi want a network that will allow BOTHJul 04 23:52
CrystalMathi don't want either of them bannedJul 04 23:53
schestowitzwhat is far left?Jul 04 23:53
XRevan86schestowitz: CrystalMath had no problems with my using Stalin as one, so I guess tankies.Jul 04 23:53
schestowitzCrystalMath: so go to a political networkJul 04 23:53
