Trying to protect all of society from the lowest common denominator often makes everything worse for people trying to exert control over their own lives. You cannot protect people from their own bad decisions without putting them in prison.

@keira_reckons@aus.social >make banking and credit cards such a gigantic pain in the ass in the name of consumer protection that people can't rely on them to ever work >haha whoops sorry we flagged your transaction for $127.05 at the grocery store is suspicious, now all your accounts are locked until the bank opens on monday morning and you call them and sit on hold for 3 hours >everyone gives up and switches to using cash and crypto >now they're even easier to scam

We could just revoke womens rights and boom.

@djsumdog@djsumdog.com @keira_reckons@aus.social go figure the first response on “my aunt can’t stop getting scammed” is the local jeet saying you can’t protect everyone so just let her get scammed lmao

"local jeet" .. I'm an American. I've always been an American, a legal one at that. The last time I was in India was in the 90s, as a Christian missionary. You immediately bring my race into things instead of addressing any part of an actual argument. What a fucking horrible response, from what I can only assume is a total pathetic piece of shit. Fuck you and whatever the fuck kind of person is obsessed with viewing everything through the lens of **my** race. It's everything I fucking hate about Fedi.

@djsumdog@djsumdog.com @keira_reckons@aus.social >fucking bloody fuck you bloody

@djsumdog@djsumdog.com @keira_reckons@aus.social @sapphire@shortstacksran.ch this is literally the worst possible response you could give to getting called a jeet over the internet. You have taken the bait. You have lost the game.

@djsumdog@djsumdog.com @keira_reckons@aus.social @sapphire@shortstacksran.ch In principle I agree with both of the posts you made in this thread. Unfortunately you shoved your mouth full of the fucking bait so hard that it's impossible to defend you.

@ceo_of_monoeye_dating@lab.nyanide.com @keira_reckons@aus.social @djsumdog@djsumdog.com @sapphire@shortstacksran.ch I really hate to see this because he's a really cool dude 😔

@djsumdog@djsumdog.com @keira_reckons@aus.social @sapphire@shortstacksran.ch >tfw they redeem

I ignore most of it. I never blocked anyone on Fedi from 2018 until 2023. You can only take so much ya know. And some of those fucks are crazy obsessed and constantly post screenshots and shit. It's really fucking weird and stalkerish.

@djsumdog@djsumdog.com @keira_reckons@aus.social @ceo_of_monoeye_dating@lab.nyanide.com @mischievoustomato@tsundere.love >it takes crazy obsession to save a few screenshots takes infinitely less effort to present you with your own takes than it took you to have those takes

bringing a coyote into my home does not make him a dog.

What about that? My parents came here legally. My dad literally worked decades in power plants keeping your lights on. I was born legally to parents who got their greencards through the process established by law. I'm sorry if you're too stupid to understand what laws are.

You know your father didn't need to do that, the lights turn on by a switch, right?

Okay I'm sure that even you can see the irony in this right
