    Yeah it’s great we have that alternative, but it’s sad AF it’s pushed down our throats while no one is asking for it.

    If you want it to stop being pushed down your throat, you’ve got to stop sucking corpo dick.

      How though? Even our public transportation is a big corpo stealing our data, raising prices and adding shitty features no one asks for. Same with cars and e-bikes. “Then get a older car” you say, but they aren’t allowed in my city anymore due to pollution. So I should just always walk? Same shit with my social housing corp, energy supplier, internet provider, phone provider. And even the grocery stores, they are all gettinf fucked up out of corporate greed. So should I go live out on the streets then, close my bank account, live on food out of trash cans? Yeah, that’s going to be awesome, no more sucking corporate dick. Hoping the salvation army won’t turn evil too.

      Or do you think that by installing Linux on your PC means you’re free of sucking any corporate dick? I’m a Linux fan but I’m not ignorant.

          Well there ya go.

          Yeah, it’s a Christian institute with strict Christian values. There’s one in the street behind my house. But at least they are helping the homeless. Although not equally. But it’s more than most do.

            They’ve been known to let trans people freeze to death on the steps of their shelters. The Starvation Army is beyond fucked, and has been for a looong time.

            Well thankfully there are usually many locally owned, secular thrift stores. Goodwill and Salvation Army both suck but the small ones don’t have that baggage.
