  • Karl Popper’s paradox of intolerance is about how we can’t tolerate intolerance in society.

    It isn’t a cloak for you to wear when you want to be intolerant and feel justified. Nor is it a proscription to dehumanize and celebrate suffering.

    Those are the actions of the intolerant, which we will not tolerate here.

    Similarly, it’s fine for those who want others to suffer, to suffer themselves.

    The irony.

    So you mean people like OP? You?

    Don’t confuse feeling outraged or righteous for an actual moral high ground.


  • The topic was illegal procedures, the person I replied to was comparing a vasectomy to abortion by asking which states it is illegal in.

    The comparison isn’t valid. A vasectomy isn’t remotely the same procedure as an abortion.

    Well I don’t know

    You could check before posting so that you would know.

    If you did, you would find out that there are 0 states in the United States where either tubal ligation or vasectomies are illegal.

    I do agree that the access to care situation is shit and caused by sexist lawmakers and doctors.

    But, just because you agree with someone, doesn’t mean you can’t tell them that they’re making irrational arguments. If people want to continue to push for change, it’s important that everyone is capable of understanding the issues and know how to argue them effectively.

    Making outrage baiting statements are good for social media engagement, but they’re antithetical to convincing people to change.


  • Hey, asshole, not everyone who lives in a rural area and is poor is a Trump supporter. Nor, would being a Trump supporter mean that it’s okay to let them freeze or cheer at other people suffering. You’re engaging in exactly the same toxic dehumanization as the MAGA crowd.

    If you think rural voters are your enemy or the source of our problems, then you’re woefully ignorant about the current political situation or how political influence works.

    You’re very much right to be angry, but make sure you know where that anger should be directed before making outrage bait posts like this.












  • what would be really cool is if it binned the storage keys for one user and not the other, silently. That way you could actually protect your data, without being martyred.

    If you leave the primary account ‘blank’ and use a secondary account for your personal use then you can do that.

    When you logout of a secondary profile, GrapheneOS zeroes the keys from memory so that even an attacker with full control of the phone could not retrieve the keys unless you entered your password to re-generate them.


  • I feel like it should also open into a fake account that looks like a real account so they are busy on that while the real account is getting deleted. They should probably start with items listed by the user as important to delete first.

    It doesn’t bother with files. The GrapheneOS wipe process deletes (by overwriting with 0s) the encryption headers on the drive and zeros the keys out of memory before shutting down.

    You should never, ever allow anyone access to your unlocked phone that you don’t trust. Even an otherwise smartphone could be exploited if it is unlocked because it exposes a much larger attack surface.
