Anyone can be sexually abused, not just underage people.

Why reply if you have nothing to add?

With all due respect, you're very condescending and snobby. You act like you know his beliefs better than he does, that superiority complex looks ugly on you.

You think insulting people for having certain views is going to be helpful in this dialogue? You think mocking someone who's having a conversation with you in good faith is productive?

Grow up, quit being so smug and childish.

Have you seen all the comments on this thread?

Instead of answering the OPs question, 100+ people are just bashing him for thinking differently, saying stuff like "Well, why are you conservative in the first place? Conservatism is so stupid! People on the right are evil, monsters, etc."

This left wing echo chamber is already very hateful and against any differing opinions.

Then I guess you should avoid most Lemmy instances too. They're already very political, and it feels more like a left-wing echo chamber every day.

The exact same thing can be said for liberal communities. It becomes a hivemind where dissenting opinions are not allowed.

Take the Hunter Biden laptop story for instance. So many websites and communities outright banned it from being discussed or posted because they didn't like the optics of it. Facebook banned it, the top subs on reddit banned it.

Only very recently has CNN decided to treat it as news, after lying about it constantly on air for months saying it was fake. That's censorship of information. The left regularly spread misinformation like "the laptop story is a Russian hoax".

Both sides do this.

This is what annoys me, a lot of these replies act like there's a hidden agenda to everything. Saying things like, "They must support white supremacy! It's a racist dog whistle! They're a Trump supporter". Their assessments never have any nuance whatsoever: if you put that on your car, you're all of the above.

They have such a condescending attitude and a superiority complex towards anyone who disagrees with them. They just can't help but build this fictional stereotype about people they don't like to vilify them.

It's not wrong to like the American flag. While I'd never put it on my car, I know people who do, and they don't have a single mean bone in their body.

Maybe they just like the American flag. There doesn't always have to be a hidden meaning behind it.

Not to downplay the security of OLM, but if MegOLM is as cryptographically sound as OpenPGP, then that's already very secure.

As long as my private key is safe, it would be computationally impossible for anyone to decrypt messages intended for me.

It is.

This is sadly how a lot of Computer Science students think nowadays.

Calling other people's work embarrassing is easy when you're not the one building or contributing to the codebase. Implementing voice chat is no easy task, and it's all done voluntarily in people's free time.
