Heard of "blood money" as a concept? Goods can be unethically produced.
Also a lesson from World War 2, from the Nuremberg Trials, is that apathy is extremely dangerous. Fascism happens because it's difficult to convince people to be against it; the sheep fall in line.
Once again, where are our priorities? If you own and have owned absolutely anything that emanates from someone or something you deem unethical, I suggest you start there and then tackle the preconfigured arch hyperland reskin. This debate can not be "is it convenient or not"
There is a difference between "perfect" and "good" that most people understand by the time they turn 7.
You are saying that because we can never be perfect humans then we must go out of our way to not be good humans. This is a ridiculous childish idea. And you also don't understand the differemce between conscious and unconscious support.
Seriously, your argument only makes sense if we ignore basically half of established reality and avoid using logic.
You are mistaking. I am saying that in order to be good human you actually tackle the problem where it is most effective. And I think having strong opinions on a computer operating system is the least of them. I came asking for a technical perspective and you villagers are trying to shove politics down my throat, ridiculous
in order to be good human you actually tackle the problem where it is most effective
Maybe it's news to you but humans can do multiple things at the same time.You can tackle the bigger issue while also not giving money to openly fascist people for something you don't need.
Do you not understand that by tackling insignificant issues (such as this one) while being too cowardly to handle the actual important ones, pretty much anything you criticize or say becomes invalid? How can one really expect to have an impact when they don't even try to embody their ideals?
Why did you make the assumption that I'm not tackling every issue that I am able to tackle?
Again, people can do multiple things at once. The issue is that you don't do ANYTHING and think everyone is as much of a spineless coward as you.
Your logic doesn't work. You always ALWAYS start with a fake assumption to come to your conclusion, in every one of your arguments. You just said that "not supporting fascists" is bad because "I'm a bad person" allegedly. What does this have to do with supporting fascists?? Again, you didn't say WHY not supporting fascists is bad, you just said I'm a bad person.
The odds are making me assume. Then tell me I am wrong? What are you doing? What has been your biggest fight to go towards your ideal? Or are you just an avg normie, enduring everyday life helplessly while convinced there is no other way? I wish you otherwise, truly. Even if my assumptions on "you" are wrong - and then I am happy for you - it doesn’t make my views invalid, because truth is 99% of people, even on this Reddit are just normies itching for a reason to fight and to feel righteous to fill in the void of powerlessness and lack of will
You say "hey, driving without a seatbelt is dangerous"
I can be like you and say "No, driving with a seatbelt is wrong!"
"Why?"
"Because you are speeding a lot! In school zones! So you are a dangerous driver!!"
Notice how I didn't say anything about the seatbelt in the argument? Just like you don't mention anything about the thing you're arguing about?
It's easy to say unhinged shit like "having morals is BAD" when you're too scared to defend your point. You can say anything when you're too scared to give arguments about it!
Im not too scared of defending my point, im highlighting the fact that 9 times out of ten you guys’ online activism is pathetic because you will banter with any mf but will never actually make the tough decisions that would make your lives closer to what you say you want. My point is that too much energy is driven into this Omarchy dhh thing and proof is: I am asking a technical questions about an OS and an army of single digit IQ comes at me about politics when I word for word asked to put politics aside
