Well, there’s fairphone. And farmers markets.
Honestly, most of the things people buy are things they don’t even need… housing, cars, and insurance excluded.

An individual instance may be driven by some ideology… but as a decentralized collective of instances, there isn’t one governing ideology. It’d be super funny to have a pro-capitalism one… and it’s anyone’s right to create it or contribute to it if they want to.
Surely one of these instances allows videos of cats.
I think most of us are on-board with police body cameras. The fundamental difference is that they are recording things in the presence of the police, and that they have the measurable benefit of holding the police accountable to their actions (sometimes).

$60 per kilo
That’s not bad for a prototype! With lab-growth meat, the initial cost was $2.3 million / kg. It’s come down since then because of process and scale improvements, but when it starts off that high, it’s going to be a while for it to become affordable.
A quick non-AI figure is $0.60 per kilo to recycle plastic… so we just need improvement by a factor of 100 which is quite realistic.
Hahaha, but that would have been a great question.
I’m going with snails. When I was younger, my family made a big deal about hating them in our garden, which is maybe fair. But now I’m an adult without a garden, and they’re just some cute, hungry little freaks.
THIS is a ‘real problem‘? A fraction of women who are hating trans? How’s this different from those women who are punching down on trans
Sorry wait… your question is about two actions
A) punching down on trans people
B) calling out other oppressed people who punch down on trans people
… and your question is about how these two actions are different?
why we have white, affluent, and fascist cis women
You can draw a different comic which depicts this, instead. The existing comic is a low-class cis women who eats up the rhetoric. Different types of people can be terrible for different reasons.
There’s a difference between A) ignoring the opinions of a particular fascist and B) ignoring a year-over-year increase in the population of people openly expressing fascist opinions.
It’s kind of like a tumor. As inconvenient as it might be, if it’s not hurting you worse than the surgery to remove it, then you should ignore it. If it starts growing, however… you probably shouldn’t ignore that.
the modern American use of “liberal” as a synonym for the progressive left… but word usages change
Modern American civics education is, on average, basically non-existent. All changes in word usage trends toward less nuance, greater redundancy, and greater ambiguity.
And that’s fine, I guess, because Descriptivism or whatever. But in the event that moderately educated people use the terms “Liberal” or “Leftist”, it’s probably okay to assume the formal meanings.
makes references to the “liberal media” confusing."
You seem to not be that confused, since you correctly pointed out that these companies are owned by conservatives.

Is this a typo, or a new term for me to learn?
I think a random lottery for office positions is the only system I’ve ever heard of which can’t be abused by narcissists.
Steamboat Willie is an example of Copyright. Twitter is an example of a Trademark. A Copyright is much much much easier to defend than a Trademark.

It’s stupid
Definitely.
they’ll lose in court
I’m not sure they will, genuinely. They intentionally abandoned the domain name for the website… and they’re no longer using the logo or name anywhere on their product, or corporate documentation.
The case that it’s up for grabs is actually decently strong.
Why be condescending now?
You already fucked up the point you were making. By all means, insult people’s intelligence at the start of the conversation, before you fuck up. Doing it at the same time as fucking up looks bad… but insults after you fuck up looks even worse.
Similar: having characteristics in common.
Looking similar does mean that two things are similar. You could have tried to make your point in a variety of ways, but you chose the way that can be countered by simply understanding English.

Not absolutely sure… but I’ll take “Probably wouldn’t” over “Definitely already does.”
Sure, boomers had puns. So did the silent generation, gen X, and Millennials.
Gen Z also has puns. They’re not the dominant feature… but they’re there.
So this is why people don’t like your comment:
It’s vague. You’re not actually taking a specific stance on anything; you’re just vaguely complaining about “things” that the left will not address, and “stubbornness”, so that someone can fill in the gaps with something it would be reasonable to complain about.
It has the appearance of someone conflating “Leftism” with “The Democratic Party of the United States.” That’s generally bad form.
The context of this post is a worldwide rise in right-wing views, so the above point is even worse than normal. Whatever issue you’re thinking of (which we don’t know, because you’re not actually taking a position, per the first point), it’s possible it isn’t associated with Leftism outside of the US at all.
No one can tell you that you’re wrong if you never actually make a specific claim, right?
