    I’m of the opinion that that doesn’t go far enough

    We need to put hard limits on personal wealth (and the wealth of companies too). After 10 million networth in wealth, all your income should go to taxes 100% until you’re below that limit… something similar should exist for companies

    Same goes for power and fame. I don’t want or need a president, or a CEO that directs billions of dollars

    Keep everything small, keep everyone small. Mega projects can still be done by multiple companies together, for example

    End the rich!












  • Yeah I don’t see this as an issue

    Usiy the word to convey a certain meaning or intent doesn’t mean you condone it, it doesn’t mean I have Hitler posters on the wall.

    Same as master/slave; I don’t have a dungeon filled with human beings that have to do everything I say. I do have a database setup with a master and multiple slaves. I don’t condone slavery btw, one would think that is obvious

    Want more? How about male/female plugs? Need to van those words too now because somehow that is sexist? Am I excluding transgender people for not having a trans plug? Should we rename those to… I do t even know! We call them that because it makes sense, one goes inside the other, and maybe, juuuuust maybe we shouldn’t read too much into it?

    How about killing all my children! Oh shit, I am an insane mass murderer now! Worse? How about forking a child process? Ooooh shiiiiit, now I am a pedophile! Except that, yeah, no, all that too are just words we use to easily explain relationships between processes on computers, and how we duplicate processes or end them, and we use those words because they make intuitive sense. But, I guess that too soon willl be an issue.

    I can’t wait for the kill command to be renamed to “snuggle” or something.

    This will also face criticism of normal people, and that kind of is the point.

    If you put up messages like these, then automatically call valid criticism mysogenistic, then you can’t call yourself the good guy/gal anymore

    This is like politicians making some bullshit argument about protecting kids from abuse and anyone trying to give criticism automatically is in the “are you a pedophile, then?” camp.

    If you have an argument to make, make a valid one and keep your auto judgement system off.
