Like, there are a lot of reasons to switch to linux and plenty of them are compelling. But its an absolute fantasy to believe you’re somehow immune to surveillance because you’re using the same software as Amazon’s EC2. Does anyone really believe the NSA hasn’t cracked Linux Mint yet?
It's much harder for the government and bad actors to hide backdoors in open source software than making a deal with a private company
dismissed as a conspiracy nut.
The government and bad actors use this as a strategy to attack their opponents and control public opinion.
Protests crack down on the internet has been going on for quite some time, don't just blame it on trump but on the whole government and its infrastructure.
This is the sort of news that does nothing but bring attention away from real problems. Blame these idiots for being a bunch of liars and criminals (including the pope) not for wearing the wrong suit color.
Why are so many accusers dieing by suicide in the same day?

This should be top news not the pope
No, I definitely remember when the mainstream media jumped at the chance

If there was a pinned post about Santa Claus disciple passing i would express my concerns about the Santa Claus cult, especially if the cultist were known to be bigots involved in abuse scandals.
Calling out the the admin of a homophobic cult and pointing out their homophobic slurs is "trolling"
You are definitely in good faith for accusing people of being russian trolls in a pope thread...
I'm gonna specify next that the pope is in charge of the biggest cult.
The catholic church is indeed a homophobic cult that condemns homophobia as a sins for which you get punished in hell, having million of followers or being popular doesn't change the fact. Scientology has millions of followers are we going to give them any credibility because of that?
because you clearly are not equipped to meet me where I am.
Ok your eminence
Even the "best" individuals in the catholic church are still the members of a homophobic and misogynist cult persuading people to believe that ghosts are real. catholic church bending and changing its own sacred holy laws as it suit them is more proof of their bullshits.
but you definitely left out the context that would cast doubt on your initial message.
Here is it:
https://www.washingtonpost.com/world/interactive/2021/vatican-sexual-abuse/
The cult leader was addressing sexual abuses in church seminars and said that there are too many "fags" in there.
someone exploiting death for the sake of argument, which makes you no better than the Catholic church by your own admission.
Unlike the catholic church i'm not exploiting death to convey lies and promote my cult, i'm not exploiting death at all i'm simply commenting on a pinned thread about the shady stuff this guy was involved in.
Now fuck off back to r/atheism and quit spamming lemmy news threads with edgy drivel.
r/atheism is where they discuss the non-existence of god. A news thread looks fit to discuss the shady scandals involving the person in question. Perhaps you should go to r/chatolicchurch
You expect dogma to be nullified with a snap of finger?
I expect homophobic cult leaders to be called out for what they are and not praised or defended
Work is like music: if you listen to your favorite song for 8 hours a day you are going to hate it
TIL the founder of Oculus VR Palmer Luckey has gone evil
I remember the guy started working on military defense but i didn't know he founded his own military defense company named after the lord of the rings with the help of peter thiel. Also i wasn't aware his company is now producing an arsenal of surveillance weapons and leading the sector.
Do people really believe politicians are salesmen?

An 11-year-old girl from Sierra Leone was rescued after three days at sea off Italy's Lampedusa island, a rescue charity said Wednesday. She was the sole survivor after the boat, which had more than…
"More than 40 migrants are feared dead off Italy's Lampedusa after a lone 11-year-old survivor said the boat she was on capsized, a rescue group said Wednesday.
We assume that she is the only survivor of the shipwreck and that the other 44 people drowned," said Compass Collective, which assists in migrant rescue missions in the Mediterranean.
The group's Trotamar III vessel "heard the calls in the darkness" of the girl Wednesday morning at approximately 2:20 am (0120 GMT) while heading to another emergency.
The 11-year-old girl, originally from Sierra Leone, had been floating in the water for three days with two improvised life jackets made from tire tubes filled with air and a simple life jacket," the group said in a statement."
TIL about Mazen al-Hamada and the tortures perpetrated by the Syrian regime
"Under torture, Hamada was forced to confess to charges of being a terrorist, possessing weapons, and the murder of regime soldiers. When he refused to confess, agents were called to come and torture him. He was beaten and suspended by the wrists. To alleviate his suffering, he agreed to sign a forced confession, admitting that he possessed a weapon to protect the demonstrators, but he refused to admit having committed any crimes. He was then transferred to another interrogation room, where he was undressed and sexually abused. After this torture he signed all of the documents.
At the beginning of 2013, he was ill and taken to military hospital 601, nicknamed by other detainees as a "slaughterhouse". In transit to the hospital, Hamada was physically assaulted. He was told to forget his name, and was assigned the number "1858". There he saw detainees tortured to death, corpses piling up in the toilets and hospital staff beating patients to death. Hamada begged the doctor to be returned
Isn't insulting russians against most instances policies?
In the expulsion of russian maintainers thread there are multiple people who are insulting russians as a whole. Isn't insulting people for their nationality against lemmy.world CoC? Is it allowed to insult egyptians or vietnamese people in a similar way?
