Post scriptum: This got way longer and way more opinionated than I intended. I still believe there is some fundamental argument in there, but it's not delivered rational. Sorry.

Something I have repeatedly heard and read in criticism of modern democratic governments is that they don't actually do anything.

The calculus of political compromise, the promise and ideal of stability, and over complex systems they over see make them fundamentally incapable of changing anything. The way democracies govern cannot adapt to outside change and will not deliver on inside demands. Change is opposed to how they calculate decision paths, how they understand incentive.

They promise you that the continuation of injustice will guarantee price stability and then inflation happens. They ask you to cut back your carbon footprint and climate change escalates anyway. And when the fascists are appearing on the horizon they ask you to defend democracy, the system that fails you over and over again, by sacrificing your ideals, your needs, and in many cases your personal safety and security by opposing fascism.

Democratic governments have proven that they cannot and will not protect you from economic hardship, war, climate catastrophe, wealth inequality, and your neighbor's tree standing to close to your fence.

This is nothing that is necessary or inherent to democracies, it is how the internal way of thinking of democratic governments incentives their decision making.

People want things to change. Past governments have shown that they won't deliver on that ever.

And to make that clear I don't think minority rights are nothing, but they are for minorities. There is no fundamental change to the lives of the majority populous on the scale of same sex marriage.

What they choose instead is burning books and people, because that is an expression of their internal suffering and pain, which they feel is ignored. They don't care that they might be next on the chop block, as long as they get to chop for a time.

It's a nihilistic reaction to political frustration.

I assume they believe it makes them go faster? I have seen videos where they drop bodies out of a truck, apparently in an attempt to get lighter and therefore faster. It's not particularly smart, but other people have just offed themselves after seeing a drone nearby. So there is a spectrum of reactions.

Fuck your couch HaHaHa

But are those lasers from space and Jewish?

Honestly there isn't much else to do after you do this level of stupid.

Hmmm Steak.

Dang, still can't walk on all fours properly.

Another thing I learned by watching porn.

Is that person twerking while talking?

It seems legs are not the defining feature when it comes to housing.

But it is pretty obvious that it is not the point here, or isn't it? The fact that Mozilla is putting work into AI instead of I don't know rewriting more of the Firefox backend in rust, which was the initial purpose of the language, is offensive. The Mozilla/Firefox VPN is offensive, because it is shit (was shit when I tried it). Sneaking in advertisement IDs into Firefox which are enabled by default is offensive. Having a for profit branch of Mozilla is offensive.

These are all from memory, and probably not accurate, the point still stands, Mozilla puts stupid shit into Firefox nobody wants or needs, instead of developing it along user needs.

Firefox is the last bastion of independent browser development. miss me with $obscure_browser_project, because they have no market share, cannot be used by my granny and are often using components of different browsers.

This is all we got, the rest is chromium based and is developed by a advertisement company.

I just want them to not add stupid shit. It costs money, manpower, and my nerves. None of them are available in abundance.

And I say a plant community is a group of people freely sharing their 🥦
