@p the multiple adolfs problem

@p funny man had a book i was curious about but i didn’t know it was bad, i think personally it has some great ideas

why are you all so mad about it

@alice @eniko

I love things about it that are being ignored for pure profit. i don’t think tech is done, but most folks rather let others tell em how to use things than be curious cause according to this system curiosity shouldn’t pay

@eniko i still use it occasionally and find great context for the responses given

@sharpcheddargoblin @zzt

its also why i say free software can’t totally save the world, you need people who give a shit, and enough of em doing actual boring foundational work to even have a shot at making something better.

but some folks think if we just use another system, that will magically fix everything. I wish it was so, but material conditions don’t work that way.

most people don’t need to be programmers, they need to be educated and ethical humans willing to help according to their needs and abilities.

the fight continues, across multiple fronts even

@sharpcheddargoblin @zzt

You’d have to play Linux Foundation politics, and none of us have that kind of organization or clout.

I hear you, but what are we gonna do, make a citizens arrest?

Not using the tool is about all we can do.

I guess maybe we could encourage folks to stop voting for or supporting nazis/authoritarians.

Other than that, not sure what else. Anyone know a KGB contact that can help out with COINTELPRO?

@sharpcheddargoblin @zzt

Actually enforce some standards for software engineering, that might be a start.

Oh, we’re not doing that?

Welllll shiiiiiii
