How about "genocidal assholes?" Can they still say that?

Windows only pretends to let you be the administrator, until Microsoft wants to do something shitty to you.

Linux actually makes you the administrator, so any screw ups are on you.

So D-Link can't afford to pay employees to fix their shit? That's not a strong argument for buying more of their stuff.

The only other explanation is that those 14 million Democrats DID vote, but that their votes weren't counted due to election day farkery. But I'm not ready to go down that rabbit hole without solid proof.

What I would like to know the most is why 14 million registered Democrats failed to vote in this election, especially given what is at stake. Because if it was for some stupid, single issue, then fark them, good and hard.

Especially in light of Microsoft CoPilot. You do not want obvious spyware on any computer.

Maslow's Hierarchy of Needs shows what it takes for humans to be happy. A lot of people can't even reach level 1.

This. You can usually spot bots from their low- value click bait. ("should cannibalism be legal?","why does God allow evil to exist?","Trump is a genius", etc).

The U.S. also has a huge defense industry that has made people ridiculously rich at the expense of U.S. taxpayers. Those billionaires are heavily invested in the defense industry, so it's not in their interests that wars end at all.

This is that "military-industrial complex" that former President Eisenhower warned us about so many years ago. His concern was that the U.S. would become bogged down in an endless series of "forever wars" that do nothing but transfer wealth to the already-wealthy.

Keeping that military industrial complex well-fed is the reason why so many politicians have such a boner for war. Not only to keep their wealthy sponsors happy, but to keep tax money and jobs flowing to their states, which just happen to manufacture war materiel.

This is Israel's setup for bombing a damn hospital. Not that they've ever cared about needing an excuse, before.
