Convenience and privilege can be taken away on a whim. Freedom takes decades of making humans become hopeless, apathetic, convenience- and privilege-loving &quot;people&quot;. No longer humans; just people. A statistic without empathy, hope, or freedom. Make life so convenient that anything that is inconvenient or takes more time, learning, thinking, patience, empathy is written off as bad, backward, criminal, tedious, &quot;too techie&quot;. Convenience (and privilege): the...

The lesser of two evils is still evil. It&#39;s the better choice, but it&#39;s still a bad choice. Remember this.

&quot;Protecting your peace&quot; does not protect your future from harm, and it certainly does not protect the ones you love. Part of doing your best to enjoy life is ensuring that everyone you love can also enjoy life, and then they can do the same for others. This would extend endlessly until it touches everyone across the world. &quot;Thank you for those that love me, those that I love, and those that love the ones I love.&quot; We are all connected. It&#39;s not just...

Imagine telling someone about the dangers of big tech and data brokers for 2 years, while simultaneously mentioning Pegasus and 1984, then being called &quot;paranoid&quot; or being dismissed with &quot;It&#39;s not that serious.&quot; Now imagine that person coming up to you years later and asking, &quot;Have you heard about Pegasus?&quot; seeking to tell you some new information they are just hearing for the first time, apparently. Instant rage bait, though unint...

Just heard a religious person coming at games again saying that Roblox and Fornite make kids feel they have all the power, pushing them away from God. Bad parenting, culture, and society does that. Not games. Former Mortal Kombat and Killer Instinct player here. I hate violence or even the idea of physically fighting another person because they said something I didn&#39;t like. Not because of my experience with games, but because of my experiences with people. Focus on the right issues.

Billionaires and the governments they control designed a system to ensure we fail as parents so that our kids become entirely dependent on and enslaved to the system.

Voting the Atlantic Slave Trade as the greatest crime against humanity knowing full well that almost all crimes against humanity have been carried out by Christians. But sure, cast blame on dead people if you must.

You want to choose between the lesser of two evils. I want to pick from the cream of the crop. We are not the same.

People that love to say, “I only care about my family” need to remember that it takes a village to raise a child. What happens outside of your household will affect your child. Similarly, what happens in countries with lots of influence will affect yours. Such statements are statements of privilege, and people with too much privilege quite often don&#39;t care about anyone but themselves.
