There different reasons for wanting privacy or advocating for for personal data privacy and implimenting strategies to support that.

If ever you are in trouble with the state or make the wrong person on the internet angry, the more you’ve publically shared the easier it will be for them to find something to use against you. So… you can try not to get on anybody’s bad side to limit that possibility or you can do your best to compartmentalize your online activities.

It should be possible to ask for help or show vuneralbility online without telling anybody (or thing) absolutely everything about you every time.

When both parties are conservative parties, everybody gets to be a right winger no matter what color your jersey is.

Find some place… as an example, hexbear’s instance has c/slop… to drop a link to the offending user’s comment or post and whatever happens… happens.

You’ve got the option of Reporting the post/comment to the moderators. Which will require you knowing the moderation rules of the community in question to take advantage of.

Short bullet point/talking point responses. Replies with things like, “This is racist/sexist/genocide denial/etc”, then disengage. You don’t need to get into a long drawn out comment war/debat bro situation.

Make fun of them for being a goober.

If you find yourself in a situation where you decide to (or need to) lie, why wouldn’t you keep doing it?

Parent assaults you if you give them an honest answer? You will learn really fast to give the “correct” answer even when its a lie.

Working customer service? You will lie constantly because answering truthfully typically gets you attacked by the customer, your supervisor and/or your manager.

Anytime you’ve ever been asked, “How are you doing today?”, and you answered, “Okay.”, you were probably lying.

Not sure how I feel about conflating “dishonest behavior” and “lying” in this article…

In each instance, subjects were able to earn a bonus payment by giving a certain response, knowing that experimenters would not be able to trace whether their response actually represented the truth. That said, researchers were able to estimate the relation between someone’s tendency to lie and their self-reported personality traits.

So… if all I need to do to get more money is just give you the answer “Give me more money”… this is supposed to mean I’m a liar and not a person who needs more money? There was a control group that was asked the same question but without the monetary incentive right?

Went from salting our hashes to salting or posts

Probably not a good idea to phrase it as “earned” retractions.

It shouldn’t be a competition to see who is the worst.

Damn… reality needs to stop making my Uncle Ted right about things…

Probably going to need to search for communities that prioritize privacy and use crypto currencies to keep their transactions private instead of searching for crypto currency communities directly.

I think this election will show a slow realignment of Arabs and Muslims toward Republicans.

Probably going to be a line between Arabs/Muslims who feel economically secure and those who don’t. The racism and Islamaphobia are pretty well entrenched to the point of being foundational in the US right and I don’t think that’s ever going to change.

If its not economic what actually is there to attract Muslim or Arab voters to the Republican party or American conservatism?

They could have hand picked the most friendly, least controversial speaker

Pretty sure I heard the speaker give their speech on some other outlet and it was pretty tame and lib. The speaker already was friendly uncontroversial.

Depends on the store.

Your non chain store that has a loyalty program, probably doesn’t have the interest or capital to pay some third party to manage the data collection and analysis to try to direct market things to you.

Worked at a co-op grocery store for a while. The “owners” could use their owner number to keep track of their purchases to count towards their patronage refund amount and it also allowed some limited ability to look at full transaction information to deal with misrings, returns without recipts, etc. in the decade that I worked there, there was no effort or interest (even though the people running the coop at the highest level were definitely “business goober” types) to try to use the info for direct marketing or to sell to a data broker.

It would instantly de-fed from all the cool people, all the shitty leminitors probably would be reabsorbed back into fed-Reddit and those Reddit clone lemmy comms would die.

“Anti-slave owner posting is back on the menu comrades!”

I’d say its time to disengage from the conversation.

Having the conversations and sticking to your points is good and all but they didn’t come to their opinions based on “facts and logic” so you’re not going to facts and logic them into a different opinion.

Possibly try to pay attention to when your friend has gotten to the point in the conversation that they’ve effectively shut down and wind down the conversation when it gets to that point. Talk about something else, everybody goes outside and touches grass, or just call it a day.

Misread the post title, thought everybody jumped and left you all alone.

Edit: Monero will never have over 1% inflation again

Inflation on the crypto transaction charges, right?

So how do you get your physical cash into a digital crypto currency without having a bank account to turn your cash into digital cash or a place to hold your crypto currency as cash when you need to buy groceries or something?
