  • ha, k. i get it, and youre not wrong about gaining those skills.

    I would think a good therapist would be able to provide exactly the kind of inter-human training needed to achieve what youre discussing. the tools exist, the people are out there. can any of those who really want that help afford it? prolly not.

    we don’t have a ‘we need this thing to exist’ problem… we have a ‘no one wants to pay for that thing that already exists’ problem, as usual.

    that said, you pointed out this causes a lot of societal problems though, and it seems many of the most vocal or problematic are those people (men) who dont think they are the problem at all. no amount draggin them to the help well is going to make them drink.









  • yes, just like religion being an inherent evil taught to impressionable children, so are many racist people they are led down that path blindly and ignorantly follow it til death. the brainwashed masses

    we actually fought an entire war over the concept… and the racists still try to pretend it wasnt racism, it was states rights to be racists

    its kinda like that old trope about nazis… you let a nazi sit at your table, there is now a table full of nazis. you can blow up all you want about ambiguity, but theres no ambiguity when you vote for racist or pedophile. none. zero.











  • i like not having to have a microsoft account to utilize it.

    you know whats really awesome? being able to decide if i want updates. or a tightly-integrated piece of shit llm.

    being able to modify literally every aspect of the shell.

    windows 3.1 was more theme-able than win11.

    linux works out of the box for all the old people i repurpose machines for and i dont have to think about cloud-connect bullshit. fuck, half of them dont notice its not windows until i mention it.

    better question is why the fuck would you use windows without being paid to?
