They just buy the data en masse from data brokers. All of the process is civil rights theater.

Yeah but he's yellow and built like a bear.

No, I'm not a reactionary. Why do you ask?

I have seen this exact list posted under the title "things that don't require talent" so it was probably a typo that got overlooked.

Under feudalism: Left is about abolishing feudalism and the monarchy. Right is about preserving them.

Under capitalism: Left is about abolishing capitalism and the bourgeoisie. Right is about preserving them.

The state is the mechanism through which one class exerts its dominance over the others.

Bourgeois states are the enforcement arm of capital. When it offers improved conditions, it is merely a carrot to prevent you from taking actions that may jeopardize its power.

In a similar vein, proletarian controlled states can do the same, but the concessions go towards capital and the day-to-day ruling is on behalf of the workers.

If we want concessions that cannot be revoked, we must overthrow the bourgeois state and replace with a workers state. We cannot reform our way into a society where capital does not have near complete power.

While disappointing, trade is not support. I do wish these countries would do more though. God bless Ansarallah for being the only regional power to do something about it.

Get deleted in a concentration camp for me.

Average "anti-authoritarian" when presented with actual left wing views.

yet you never seem to condemn the USA for it. Should be easy for you. Maybe next time you read an article about the USA you'll bring it up?

No need to apologize. I can differentiate disagreement from attack.

However, consider that this action raises the bar to run FOSS apps from:

  1. Disable the toggle.
  2. Install the app.

To:

  1. Purchase a phone that can run an OS that allows you to do the above.
  2. Disable bootloader unlock.
  3. Connect your phone over USB.
  4. Flash the OS.
  5. Do the above.

OR:

  1. Do the above.
  2. Connect your phone to USB or enable wireless ADB.
  3. Run a command to install the app (repeat for every app install)

The new barrier to entry is going to inevitably catch a whole lot of people who would otherwise be willing to go out of their way to install FOSS apps. Development will also suffer as a downstream consequence of this.

I use postmarketOS too, and it is a much more pleasant experience to use than having to break out a second device to update or install software. It has a large number of issues, but it's more comfortable to use than your comment implies.

This nerd, while being led into the camps at gunpoint: "resisting would only give them pretext for what they want"

Because the network effect makes it so we all are forced to use this shit at work.
