Guess what, I even read “No place to hide” by Glenn Greenwald / Ed Snowden. I never said Snowden is bad, but he was naive and quite fucking stupid to think he was working for “the good guys” initially. I am glad he had a change of heart and did what he did. Nevertheless it is more heroic to stay away from evil deeds than change your mind after partaking and then step away.

With the understanding that secret police is on your side, you will never take down anyone.

You missed the point. To get that kind of knowledge, he first had to subscribe to the evil team. Which he did. It would be different if he had joined from the beginning with the motive to expose unlawful practices by the services. It is more heroic to not join team evil in the first place.

Most of us here are more of a hero, because we had the backbone to never actually work for those fascist services to begin with.

This IS a full life because it’s the one I got, and just the chance to experience this universe is so unbelievably goddamn beautiful.

I think that this one sentence captures it all. I do not believe in heaven etc, but I do believe there’s zero time passing for us while we are “not conscious”, and we came into existence once as a “conscious being”, so it can happen again. And even if it happens again a billion years later, maybe - just maybe - for us, it will be like “right after” we close our eyes for the last time in this life. So I wish you an awesome life as an alien in a galaxy far, far away, for the next run :)

Underrated idea :D

You are an idiot. Previous commentor was not defending this in any way, he was looking to find an explanation as to why Stephen Tyler got away with things.

I don’t get the downvotes, I agree with you. It’s not okay, and yes, it’s legally rape, but it doesn’t have to be traumatizing the victims in the same way as the examples you also mentioned. And that’s not an excuse, but a reasonable answer to the question you responded to.

Not sure if exclusive, but Andor’s Trail is on F-Droid and really good.

it’s both awesome and quite addictive :)

While I agree with the sentiment, the scale of the mutilation and consequences is not comparable.

This is the best approach. Wonder what excuses she’ll come up with to cop out.

Kinda photoshopped. Apples turn brown quickly when peeled.

View count & comment count might be enough. Not saying I advocate for that, just trying to think of alternatives.

I’d say the comment is readable, but could benefit from formatting and some more concise expressions on some places. Using words whose meaning is not universally understood by people with average to mid-high education is counterproductive to spreading a message.

Who cares? Only morons use it.

Yeah, I was like “wdym when it becomes a tool of power”?

I wouldn’t consider it a win if they get paid merely the damages caused - they did lose lives after all. But also, if true, Magastan didn’t win anything.

Can’t be worse than having a smoker in the same room.
