Only if you think lying and manipulating people is a binary check.

Why should I address something I’m not trying to deny? You’re the one not addressing what I’ve been asking. Bro, get your head together.

Yeah, but that’s not the part I’m asking about. You’re basically ignoring my question and attempting to force the conversation in a direction you’re more comfortable with. I’m more curious about the ones that is not being covered by the media. You seem to have a problem with them not being covered, yet you avoid sharing any info about them when people are trying to find out. What’s with the irregularity in your stance?

Why are you changing the subject? You said there were more effective protesters that are not being covered. Can you link them for me?

It does when you’re acting like you know better than the protesters, yet have done nothing that is actually better. Actually, you have not even proven that you’ve done anything even on par with them.

Everyone know keyboard warriors have a point, yet everyone also know they are keyboard warrior because they lack the courage to do what they expect others to do. In that sense, you are just a hypocrite unless you prove yourself to not be one. Your use of specific terms to explain things don’t change the fact that nobody listens to people who tell others to do things they are not willing to do themselves. Talk is cheap, even if it’s based on the truth.

Who are these people? Got any links?

If they do exist, I think you’ll find it more effective to spread the word about them instead of trying to pull down other people. You won’t find acceptance amongst the general public if all they see you do is pull down others. Be more effective in your own messaging.

Again, what have YOU done?

I never defended these protests. I only told you how to make your point actually stick, which is by showing what you did personally that was more effective than what they did. It’s you who failed such a simple task and made yourself look like a completely useless keyboard warrior.

Not saying they couldn’t do better, but they are for sure doing more than the guy not doing anything other than criticise the way of people protest on the internet.

Those are people, not you. What did you do that gives you the right to say what other people do are useless? What did YOU do that was more effective.

Doesn’t matter how effective other’s actions are, because they are in a far better position than people who do nothing but criticises other people’s actions.

You keep saying about what they shouldn’t do, yet you have not listed even one thing you’ve already done that is better than things you’re calling as performative. If you want to prove your point, just list these things and explain how they’re more effective than protesting.

Like I said, writers have no problem writing for Wikipedia. You can enjoy emailing writers to add to your torrent collection and donating to them directly.

I really love your fake concern about writers being paid yet never once addressed my points about donating to them. Guess it wasn’t that important to you, in the end.

Where did that download come from? Who compiled all those written information into something that can be downloaded by you?

Try making a compilation of information directly through torrents from scratch and tell me how far you get with that. I’m sure you’ll find that most people do not want to go through that hassle.

You’re severely underestimating the value of making it easy to compile the information in the first place. And again, those information do not need to be compiled to wikipedia by the writers. They do so because of the value provided by the service.

The question is, do you think the writers will get paid any better by you sharing their work through torrents than through wikipedia? I don’t think so. If you actually cared about this, go and donate to the writers instead of devaluing the contribution of wikipedia in compiling these information.

The articles don’t get written without the servers running, and the writers are not forced to write them. Wikipedia is a free service to share information, so writers are using it as a service, not as an employee. They could have easily not used wikipedia.

Saying they should be paid is like saying developers should be paid for sharing their code on Github. What you actually want is to follow the FOSS model and donate to the Wikipedia writers directly, not expect the foundation to pay people who use their service for free.

Did you think they run their servers using volunteers?

I’m so confused by what you meant. Can you explain which part is the positive that you mentioned?

Is there any reason for me to ditch MPC and go MPV, or is it just preferences?

I do feel like that sometimes, so completely understandable.

If you were looking for consistency, that is by definition you looking for the same result, which is not covered in the definition of insanity.

If a flat earther becomes POTUS and attempts to implement policies to legitimize flat earth, it’s not a waste of resources to use NASA to deny the President’s claims.

Even if I don’t look for it, US politics is everywhere on this site. If you feel that non-US citizens shouldn’t talk about US politics, then stop talking about it so much and assuming every random person you talk to is from the US.

Even as an outsider, I could see the inevitable loss of the Democrats in 2024 from the way their most zealous supporters act. The question is why aren’t you people seeing it? This is the why blindly defending a political party doesn’t do you much good. You become detached from reality. So detached in fact that you’re still doing the same thing after your party already lost the election.
