All I said was that at the federal level abortion still is legal(which it is), and you just went on a tirade against me…

I don’t think it is?

Anything that is not illegal is legal. Federally abortion is not illegal.

What? It is federally legal, it is just some states have bans. Contrast that with something like weed where its federally illegal but some states say they won’t prosecute.

Still is federally

The US effectively has several parties, they are just within the coalition of the DNC and GOP

Yes I would agree, but its unclear if this again means all Russians who are employed by any company. Because all Russian companies are sanctioned

You said you support the slaughter of innocent people. I’m not worried about spies, this is a public forum.

Your pro genocide stance has been noted.

And they’ve been banned because they keep saying the same stuff, being banned everywhere, then making new accounts

XD

This was reported, I’m not sure its rule breaking, but its weirdly aggressive.

This got reported, but its a joke, I think people just didn’t get it- including me. Because its a weird joke.

Especially if you have kids.

Exactly, I’m fine with being on edge, but its not right to force that on kids if you can help it.

But its not clear that the compliance requirements are about being government affiliated…

Also apparently they are intending to re-add those who can be confirmed as unaffiliated with the Russian government.

Do you have a source for this? Because that would be really good news.

I don’t think this is about security implications, but I may be wrong. My understanding is this is related to the export sanctions, meant to hamper the Russian economy.

Most people don’t want to die, or risk their lives. There’s not something unique to autocratic countries. Just like Americans aren’t responsible for bombing innocent families in the middle east, random russians aren’t responsible for a government they didn’t even vote for.

Yep, my reading of the law is the ban is specifically to do with “providing software services to Russians” and somehow collaborating on open-source software would be that. But I don’t entirely understand how.

One of my friends is a trans Buryat, she does FOSS development, can’t leave Russia because she has no money and nowhere to go. There are many similar cases

Yeah Linus just said “Legal reasons” but made it clear he supports it.
