would you remove the battery during those 20 years?

Simplex.chat is promising, with great privacy/anonymity concepts at its core:

• no identifyer like a phone# or an email address needed
• little to no metadata transiting by the server
• identity management ("incognito" identities generated in one click when joining a group for instance, management of several identities), all database/client-side.
• works with any server, through tor by default. different servers used to send/receive messages.
• android/ios/linux-tui/linux-desktop/macos/windows versions available
• in Haskell, so no node/electron shtf#ckery (just a different shtf#ckery... ;)) )

... er.... the only thing stopping an AmericaBad-with-a-gun is an AmericaGood-with-a-gun...?

do you think a company like cloudlare.com, that injects its javascript in between given site and you, will hesitate one second before transmitting its data with the FBI (or any other police), and help them tracking users down?

discrimination doesnt start with "suggesting bad things about a group of people", it starts by creating such a group of people, and enforcing it, culturally, politically, socially and at every level (including by jokes, memes, etc.). then at some point in history when society will be tense enough and on the verge of collapse, there will always be someone to suggest that this virtual "group of people" is the cause of... you know... everything bad.

but discrimination starts way way earlier. when making "groups of people" based on things they didn't chose, and that actually shouldn't matter so much...

I understand your point of view... I hear that your intention wasnt to provoke or to encourage hatred.

Yet, the very notion that there would be "races" here is err.. a very definition of "racism" (ie. who sees things according to supposed "races")... there is one race, the Human kind... the rest is physical differences.

So somehow, inevitably, making jokes based on these physical differences, on sorting people (even jokingly) according to them (especially implying that there would be a "good" configuration for the, and another that would remind a state that everyone has experience, the last step of a cube where "omg omg i am almost there!!!" feeling so good as something that inevitably needs fixing...) is further re-inforcing discriminatory mechanisms.

Imagine that you would see an image that would make you say "there are 4 skinnies and 4 fatties on that (virtual) picture" -> if your conception of the world, if your way of looking at things is to see "skinnies" on one side, and "fatties" on the other, if you call them that and sort them according to that, well it's a discrimination based on physicail aspects.. isn't it?

whether it bears a name ("fatism"?) or not doesnt matter so much as how it is a way of looking at people and at the world, that in turns can bring about further simplifications, de-humanization (if someone is "a fatty" or "a xxxx" they often are less than just "a person"), discriminations, and as history showed, often violence...

Does it make any sense to you?

thanks :)

can I just ask this: do you see or not a racist undertone to this image? (i am not trying to entrap or judge your or anything, it's just curiosity)

I am glad to be part of such a cool anti-racist bunch! :)
