  • It’s partly that, but it’s also that doing what Democrats want never seems to get the turnout that it should.

    Biden did student loan forgiveness, which should have given him all the college votes, yet people shurg and go “Well yea! About time!”

    He puts money into infrastructures and unions and again, people go “I guess, it’s a bit better than Republicans!”

    Democratic voters suck ass at rallying behind any cause, because the base is filled with “well actually…!” people, that demand 100% problem completion on day one, otherwise they are not impressed.

    And even if he solved every problem ever, they’d say, “Well yea, he should fix them… He caused most of them!”

    Meanwhile, Republican voters will literarily vote for a rapist because they see the bigger picture. For as stupid as they are, they understand you have to be IN POWER to do anything.

    Twirling your thumb in your asshole pining about raising taxes and fist past the post and equality for all and protecting minorities is a colossal waste of time if you don’t VOTE.






  • Becuase it maaaaaaybe dissuades SOME people from buying the service so there’s maaaaaaybe less revenue for the mega corps.

    So yea… It maybe kinda sorta… Hurts mega corps, but it absolutely is a tax paid by Canadians.

    Now you might say the tax is good because it funds shit for Canadians, but that’s a separate argument.

    So yea, this is maybe? good for Canadians, since Canadians are getting absolutely FUCKED by anything digital / mobile / internet related.

    If anything I’d love to see the Canadian market forced open for US telecoms, because as shitty as telecom is in the US its far FAR worse in Canada.

    You’re 100% right.

    Linux Mint is not hard to learn at all, it’s almost identical to windows.

    The problem is the random ass shit you have to debug that the average user will not do and conclude Linux sucks.

    IE if you have an Nvidia card, which shit loads of people do, you will struggle with bullshit just having two monitors…

    If you have Logitech devices, which shit load of people do, you won’t have drivers and you’ll have to fuck around dealing with shit.

    In addition to other quirky shit that happens on Linux some not really Linux fault and some just is.

    That said one of the good things about chat gtp / ai is that they are actually really helpful at debugging Linux.

    So yea… Linux isn’t just plug and play, the way windows is. Windows steals your data and has shit loads of bloat but just like cellphones the average person doesn’t give a shit nor does he understand how / why windows is awful.
