For the same reason republicans won’t: They’re on the list, their friends are on the list and their donors are on the list.

I read it. You just don’t seem to like that, based on the evidence, I don’t agree.

How can I say Labour haven’t tackled Reform? Lab 24% vs Ref 26%. You argue that they are? Cool, Lab 24% vs Ref 26%.

How can I say Labour haven’t tackled wealth inequality? Government report says wealth inequality is very high. You’d argue they tried tackling wealth inequality? Cool, Government report says wealth inequality is very high.

I said the government’s actions were extreme and unethical. You described Labour’s behaviour Trumpian, so that’s something I guess.

You say I ignore government actions? I referenced government actions. At least pretend you read my comment, have AI summarise it for you or something.

My entire argument is that Labour are, at best, ineffectual at tackling the threats to our country. Evidence backs me up. You want to argue, bring some evidence. Else you’re getting soaking wet with the rest of us. You want to argue it’s sunny? Cool, we’re all getting rained on though. They tried and failed? How does that not support that Labour are ineffective?

Goodbye. (We’re not trains, we don’t need to announce our departure)

I read your comment. I can also see the rain outside. Just as proof you read my link with the results on whether it’s raining outside. Are Labour(24%) currently ahead or behind Reform(26%)? (Yougov - July poll). I, personally, find that concerning. You do you though.

That’s some Trumpian shit right there.

Now you’re getting it. Did you read my comment? I said it was extreme and unethical. Labour have proved they will do “Trumpian shit”, just not to handle Reform. Pick something in the gulf between the options. Tackle wealth inequality - huge range of options - declare them terrorists.

It’s like you’ve completely ignored the government’s actions.

Or, it’s like I’ve gone outside to check whether it’s raining.

Both my claims: (Reform haven’t been handled, wealth inequality hasn’t been tackled) are evidence based. To argue with me you’re going to need some polling data that Reform have been relegated to irrelevance and you’ll need data that wealth inequality has significantly decreased to the point potential Reform voters aren’t worried about their last cookie. Without both of those you’re just getting soaking wet telling me it’s sunny.

How can you suggest haven’t paid attention to the government’s actions given I referenced their actions in every one of my comments?

In fact, I do need a half step. Legend, thank you.

How would you say they aren’t tackling Reform?

… by Reform not being tackled? I thought it was self evident? How can I say that it’s raining outside? By looking at the rain outside.

I gave one example of how they could tackle Reform. But, taking inspiration from their latest actions, they could declare Reform a terrorist group and lock them up. An extreme solution to be sure, unethical too, but it isn’t above Labour to do so. Pick somewhere in the massive spectrum in-between.

You don’t need to defend Labour here. They’ll throw you under the bus to protect the wealthy too.

The meme explained:

In my opinion our Labour government are not doing anything about a real threat to our country (ReformUK). They are doing things against an imagined threat to our country (over policing protests). I could have picked any imagined threat really, disabled people maybe, but the protest thing is recent.

To add, instead of harassing its citizens, labour could instead tackle wealth inequality. It’s hard to argue that the immigrants are taking their only cookie when reform voters have a bunch of cookies, it’s easy for voters to have a bunch of cookies when you stop the ultra-wealthy hoarding them all.

Tackling real threats, Vs distracting people with imagined ones.

We’ll let them though. Labour government right now:

Excuse me, peasant crontab enjoyer here, but what?! I could write a (mostly) declarative system without having to learn Nix?! I should probably be learning systemd anyway, it’s looking more and more like the present, let alone the future.

I run a bunch of remote reverse proxies that are functionally identical, but for having a different Cloudflare key and calling for a different static IP

Could I write the entire config to a self hosted Git > pull that repo > change those two variables and have a running machine?

Remote updates have been kicking my ass, I either can’t wrap my head around Screen or it isn’t fit for my need. Being able to pull the new config from Git over Tailscale and then run it would be game changing for me.

Journal. Let your feelings out, incrementally, in a place that you don’t feel vulnerable for doing so.

Today co-worker did X, they’re a cunt. It annoys me because Y. Seriously, Co-worker is a dick. At the time I wish I had done Z, but Z is illegal. Nexr time I’ll try [reasonable action]

What’s the real tax rate for the “have nots”? Is Jeff not the 1%. It’s weird to argue he isn’t, and given that he is Bernie’s statement is true.

No, I’m talking about a genocide. “Your honour, we had to commit a genocide, the Allies had prisoners!” -some Nazi in Nuremberg, probably.

Correct, I won’t engage in your “what aboutism” other than mocking it. I’m still waiting for your apologies. The links are different from each other, and the three above, perhaps you might think any of those responsible for writing those reports and articles want to understand the conflict.

Maybe you’ll learn why a rational person with all the facts you have, maybe even more facts than you have, would call it a genocide. Call it a lesson in empathy: all the same facts, different conclusion, still rational.

Summary: The UK government have banned speech protesting their military support of a genocide. I think that’s bad, both the banning of protest and the military support Isreal. Do you agree? If not what do you disagree with? The banning of protest in the UK? The banning of speech in the UK? The military support of Israel?

Thank you, saved. I’d still be a little but fucked, but not entirely.

I guess I should get on with learning/donating to this soon while the sun’s still shining with Tailscale. Slower, more gentle transition, fuck up in some dev environment instead of my actual server. Goddamn was tailscale so easy though.

Once again. Speech is being banned. Only one of which was protested against in the comment I replied to: not the potential 14 years in prison, the banning from a niche part of a niche website. Not a false dichotomy. Nor is the violence choice a false dichotomy, it’s pointing out the ridiculousness of complaining about vandalism under the shadow of genocide.

You want to talk about straw Manning, ctrl+f my comment for Hamas please. If it comes back with zero result you should apologise.

You don’t want to understand the conflict you claim to care about because you only care about a bullshit internet narrative.

The arrogance of this sentence. Genuinely, be ashamed of yourself and apologise.

Israel will continue the genocide no matter what I do, that’s correct. But we, as a nation, don’t need to support them… Hence the protests.

Edit: as you believe I don’t want to understand, I’m linking my usage of the word “genocide” to people you might believe do. Each link is different.

I wonder if any Nazi said “your honour, we had to commit a genocide, the Allies had hostages” at the Nuremberg trials. Probably, a lot of nonsense was tried.

Perhaps you responded to the wrong person. Here’s what my comment stated and asked:

Speech is being banned. Would you prefer speech supporting/denying genocide be banned? Or, speech protesting genocide be banned?

Violence is already happening. Would you prefer violence be used to support genocide? Or, violence be used against planes in protest of genocide?

Personally, I would prefer vandalism over genocide. Not a particularly tricky moral dilemma for me, weird question to have asked.

Noteably, nothing about Hamas. You saw that right? Tilt at some other windmills.

Big words. I hope, though don’t trust, they can live up to them. But if tailscale goes, I’m just plain fucked. Thats certainly an indicator they’re worth some money to me, but there’s many a FOSS project before I get to paying a VC one.

As an aside, an interesting service would be a fund allocation type thing. You donate £x, tick which services you use and the funds get divvied up by what you use. Only able to donate £10 but use a lot of services? Each service gets very little, too little to donate as an individual, so little the individual doesn’t. But, on aggregate (with hundreds, or dozens of users) it would add up to a worthwhile donation. I thought of "round robin"ing my donations: pihole gets 10 this month, jellyfin the next, audiobookshelf the month after that… but yikes the admin.

Funds are donated when £x is accrued at the end of the month, and the service is maintained by earning interest on the funds held through the month. Idealistic, ripe for abuse, and out of my league to write and administrate. I promise I’d publish all the finances to keep me honest though.

It’s not weird at all. They’re share holder corpos, anti-morality is par for course. Corporations are not our friends.

Agreed. I’ll get over myself one day and build one. For now Airvpn supports port forwarding at an affordable (to me) price, so I let them deal with the moral dilemma.

It’s coming though, i2p is where my server is headed, even if I keep a VPN up too.

I really want to build an i2p router, and have started a couple times, but the lack of control of what goes through my hardware stops me every time. It’s a cool project and, sadly, looking more necessary every year.

It’s weird I don’t have these hang ups for other systems. Running a meshcore node doesn’t give me the willies. Just for i2p I worry how much csam is going through my router.

Someone doesn’t know the folly of extending straight lines graphs into the future.

I’m a little embarrassed about how many of these, if not for the thread, sound like believable names to me. Mayhaps I’m not as cultured as I would like to think.
