I’ve talked to friends that were very excited Trump won. Recently tried having an open conversation with someone that left my community afterwards over the conversations because I didn’t come to his side.

They just believe it’ll be better. What better? They don’t know. They can’t verbalize, because they’re told it’s terrible now and will be better.

They believe Trump isn’t a criminal, didn’t incite violence on Jan 6, the woke people are out to get them, etc. I’ve literally asked people to define “woke” for me when they use it that way. They can’t. They don’t know. They’re not bad people, they’re brainwashed at this point.

Excellent Point. If that’s the case though, then wouldn’t other countries follow suit which still limits big tech’s reach and makes them less profitable and less powerful? Idk.

I’ll never be totally successful, genie is put of the bottle, but we can at least attempt.

I’m on Debian 12 and I run the flatpak. If it breaks I just install Steam on the desktop until it’s fixed. So they don’t have to be mutually exclusive. But I haven’t had to worry about the flatpak breaking in years.
