I think demand will come soon for either manufacturers to open their boot loaders or new manufacturers cropping up to fill that gap.

I'm running graphene os on a pixel 8 pro and haven't looked back.

They believe in the "free market" insofar as the government being commodities to be bought.

^ It's like my best friend from High School who disowned me. We were always on opposite ends of the political spectrum but always met in the middle at "everything is fucked and rigged." Of COURSE he was a capitalist conservative, his Dad owned a successful construction company, but we still saw the same flaws in the system and respected/saw what the other was saying on whatever issue we discussed.

I won't say he didn't work hard or anything, he did go to college (paid for though, of course) and work a real job in his business/bookkeeping field for a while. But sure enough after a few years with his family resources and connections he started a real estate business and now I'm a filthy commie even for just utilizing VA health care (which isn't a "freebie," but a part of the agreement when you join.)

My point is, we were able to find middle ground and agree on certain things, until his privileged position allowed him to "win." Then, all of a sudden, the system is perfect and I'm just a loser who wants winners to pay for losers and if I want healthcare (or whatever) I should just get off my ass and "win." Of course the system seems flawless and superior when you have all the material conditions to just waltz in with no struggle or strife.

((Lesser point, we were friends for like 20 years from age 14-15 and I still miss my friend))

I'm sure there's some tangible "definition" of tankie, but I've been on lemmy for a while and I still couldn't tell you what it is past "person I disagree with" lol

1000% this. I live in the bible belt and am a big burly bearded bastard so people "quiet part out loud" at me with supersonic speed (1). I'd almost make a mortgage payment if I had a buck for every time someone said some ridiculous shit then I got in trouble for "getting political" aka politely and calmly engaging with the statement just made directly to me.

I didn't make it political. The person saying trans folk should "wear the right clothing" made it political. I believe the word you're looking for is "uncomfortable," and if you don't want it to get uncomfortable maybe tell HIM not to get political. If he says it, I have a right to respond - and silencing my speech but not his is an explicit endorsement of his speech.

(1) It has literally happened in like 5 sentences or less between even me and a stranger multiple times. "Hey what's up" "nothing much started a new job" "cool, I haven't worked in a bit but I worked at target for a bit" "why? Target funds ANTIFA TERRORISTS"

I'm aware, but it's made its way into peoples vocabularies IRL as well.

Humanity isn't over, but America is. Its already fascist, and now we just wait for the empire to crumble.

Facebones , 1 month ago to Lefty Memes in Nice Guy

This comment is, in and of itself, facist.

• Identification of enemies as a unifying cause (leftists)

• Attacking anybody left of mid right biden for sowing political disunity and furthering degeneracy / good ole blatant misinformation (claims that third party voters just want Trump)

• Insistence that "ONLY WE" can save the country.

• Appeals to totalitarianism ("Only one of these two can be chosen")

America is already fascist, has been, and Democrats are just blue MAGA - Which is why they don't mind Republicans and dedicate their lives to attacking the left while blaming us for any and every loss (another faschie tactic.)

Facebones , 1 month ago to Lefty Memes in First meme (hopefully good)

Biden has done a couple things to pay lip service without actually standing up for it (ie forcing rail workers back to work.)

He's also sidestepped congress multiple times to fund and supply genocide, pushed legislation to strip leftist organizations of nonprofit status, and pushed legislation to make ANY criticism of Israel legally antisemitic so any school that allows pro Palestinian protests can have funding and accreditations pulled by the Board of Education. Not to mention in 2016 when the DNC went to court to make it clear they do what they want and the voters can suck their dick.

Dem voters are complicit and active in that fascism by never caring about Republicans, and exclusively attacking leftists with all the same fascist tactics they claim to be saving us from.

If I hold up a sock puppet while I punch you, I still punched you. Walking a picket line while pushing fascist policies is still fascist.
