  • Knowledge = Belief + Evidence

    What really matters is how good of a critical thinker you are, and what you’ll accept as evidence, but if you’re decently educated, you should be able to manage it. The key is not accepting secondhand evidence from untrustworthy sources, and to seek firsthand evidence that you can see with your own eyes.

    As for “Objective Truth”, that doesn’t exist. Not only are our experiences obligatorily filtered through our subjective human perceptions, but relativity allows for multiple conflicting truths to exist simultaneously in spacetime, so it literally can’t exist, and even if it could, we would be blind to it.

    This has nothing to do with pop-os. If you don’t like this window behavior, take it up with Proton.

    Not that it’s even a real problem. If you enlarge a login window, it’s not going to add any content to the window. Why would you even want your VPN client taking up half your screen anyway? You log in, you turn it on, you turn it off. That’s basically it…





  • A ban is incredibly hard. Not impossible, but hard.

    Not in Germany. Spreading Nationalist or Nazi-adjacent views is a crime in Germany. the AfD not only should be banned, but many of those those involved in it should be arrested and face criminal charges for spreading Nazism. It’s literally just a matter of enforcing the law.

    And even if, it won’t solve the actual problem.

    It’ll solve a large part of the problem.

    A great way to cut their votes in half would be educating the population so they understand that protest is good but voting for fascist scum is not.

    Germany is extremely highly educated. If you want to send a message to Nazis, start throwing them in prison until the rest get the message and fuck off.
