They are allowed to be president and run for re-election too so I wouldn't hold my breath

I'm on the same boat. But my "what the actual fuck?" moment came when (for those unfamiliar with it) YouTuber Idubbbz came out with a sincere apology for many of his videos that used extremely racist or ableist terms. While aware that his apologies did not automatically translated into being forgiven by the memebers of the groups he insulted, Idubbbz still felt it was important for him to apologize.

And in this situation, Penguinz0 just said that "Idubbbz shouldn't have apologized and it felt like he was exaggerating the whole thing". Way to inject yourself in something that did not involve him at all. Also, that really told me the kind of person Penguinz0 is: someone who dismisses others suffering when it's not his place to do so and someone who just goes off his own gut feelings alone.

This goes to show how hard it is to put a rich white^orange?^ man in prison. The whole system failed at every turn and there's STILL the chance he might become president again...ain't that something?

Because our society says that if you have money, you must have earned it by being smart and savy...and some people still believe that

That is indeed a very sexy and interesting piece of Data (wink wink, nudge nudge)

I have watched the video and if you think he wasn't being honest, you probably are one of those people you mentioned that fall on the spectrum.

He might've used the tone of a joke, but he's been saying for a while now how he plans to "get back at those who wronged him". Hell, he even said that the GOP is impeaching Biden only because "they did it to him first".

I am shocked people like you think he's not being serious: he's literally telling you.

I mean...yeah? Is anyone surprised or shocked when Paramount Pictures releases a new movie? It's literally Google's whole business idea, they sell your data.

Are you surprised the genocidal regime that has been slowly eradicating a whole people for the past 70+ years could go this far?

Mental health is never an on/off thing, my friend. It's a spectrum and you could potentially still be relatively high on the spectrum but not high enough for a full diagnosis. Nobody is stopping you from incorporating some more ADHD friendly techniques in your life too :)

That's not true. The rich are extremely rich and with immense amount of power and influence, while the working class has little to nothing. That's capitalism working perfectly as designed, my friend

Most news outlets nowadays are the equivalent of Buzzfeed. They do whatever get them clicks. Journalism is optional. And so is any sense of ethics

If their customers don't punish them by withholding their money/support, their rich owners are definitely not going to push for a change. You saw how the main tech giants bent their knees at Trump's inauguration

Monero.

Otherwise I don't know if you'll find an open source alternative to Google wallet, since the banking system overall is very much the opposite of open source

If you want to avoid this happening again, this guide here as a lot of alternatives and suggestions.

Some are fairly easy (switch to Firefox) while others might be slightly harder (like maybe convincing your friends to stop with discord and use something else instead) but if you'd like to have more privacy, it's all well worth it :)

Oh I see. I just gave up haha and now whenever I hear a task I need to do/anything I need to remember I just write it somewhere.

Something along the lines of "your brain is made to think, not to remember trivial tasks"

For me it was a convergence of things all at the right moment: Edward Snowden just happened, I just bought a new phone (to experiment with) and I saw a comment on Reddit detailing some privacy tips/tricks which made it seem very easy to get on board

Hahaha too relatable. My solution was to buy a bunch of tiny pencils and literally leave them everywhere (pants, coats and hoodies included)
