Email is inherently insecure. If you want or need secure communications, that’s what software like Briar, Matrix, or Signal (yes despite some drama).
Secure emails can always be done manually with PGP and will be a lot hardier than trusting an organization that gives away subscriber payments to Western-backed coup attempts and color revolutions.
‘good’ and ‘bad’ are usually relative and open for debate. political ideas and judgements are best kept to certain times, places, and groups. Everyone has heard, i’d guess, that it is in bad taste to discuss religion or politics at a big family gathering table/dinner - such as Thanks Giving in America, as an example. I’ve seen my dad get into some uncomfortable debates at the dinner table with male relatives over 30 or 40 years old. I’d like to see more or even all businesses be neutral and simply ‘do right’ in their own dealings - be good to customers, staff, the environment, animals, etc. Start with a PERSONAL revolution and improve yourselves.
“Was slavery bad?”
“start with a PERSONAL resolution and improve yourself!”
🙄
If it interferes with a person’s freedom, property, or life, then one is a victim and the other the criminal. There are many shades of gray; nothing is all black or all white (all or nothing).
I’d like for more people to be polite enough to not impose their views on others. If you live a great life and are a great person, I will look at what makes YOU different and try to emulate those wonderful traits. No need to slam your ideas in my face (or knock on my door with pamphlets). Too many people fool themselves that they know best.
Can you elaborate on the shades of gray when it comes to the issue of slavery being right or wrong?
It’s not all black and white, I feel like I know the negative parts but perhaps you can help me out by elaborating on the positive parts.
nice way to twist my words. how smart you must feel
Zero twisting of words whatsoever. You just haven’t fully thought through the implications of your own beliefs. When your beliefs are applied to slavery, they produce a position you don’t want to defend, and you claim it’s “twisting” your words.
The truth is you just haven’t thought this through.
I don’t recall ever saying or thinking slavery is okay. I may need to go back to see what the hell i wrote…but, am so used to people WANTING to read or hear or take things wrong that …its just too much trouble. I am no drama queen.
