Just because the technology involves politics shouldn’t mean it can’t belong here also. Why do they have to be mutually exclusive? I’m not pushing my beliefs on anyone here.
If you read the article (which I can only assume you did), it goes into detail about a how even hackers from Black Hat and DEFCON (two well known cybersecurity conventions) were donating to a cause they believe in. It even goes on to talk about hacking voting machines.
You look like an idiot by whining that this submission is about politics and not relevant to technology. And every additional comment adds to your idiocy.
I can't prove it's true for you, but every time I read messages like this I think "lol look at that Uber conservative with bad ideas"
Edit: in your case the problem appears to be explosive diarrhea, not being a conservative. Consider me corrected. However another person heavily agreeing with you validates my bias so I'll stick with it ;)
Exactly! Why are we even downvoted for this? People with political agendas are increasingly using every popular sub for posting their shit. Don't care. Don't want to see it.
Then... go away to another instance, bub. The things my country does affect far more than just the united states, unfortunately. I really wish we hadn't fucked the globe up so bad and stuck our grubby little fingers into every pot, but we did. And now you all have to hear about it. It's not changing any time soon, either until our political situation improves and we convince our politicians to stop. Wish us luck.
The majority of english-speaking Lemmy users are from the US. Sadly, they think that they are the onle ones. More importantly, they think that US politics is important to everyone outside of the US.
It does affect other countries but not to the extent that people in the US think. The whole english internet is full of random election articles and posts. Yet in German news for example, barely anyone even mentions the US election. Harris is a new candidate and she now has a vice president. That's pretty much the whole news of the entire month. It's a side-quote. It's really not that important.
This arrogance of some Americans is astonishing. You enjoy playing world police but you have no rights to force it on others especially when it's not even related to the discussion. Literally don't care where you spend your GDP. We spend it on the people, you spend it elsewhere. I don't judge you if you stop judging us. We don't spam European news on you but you should really read it anyways because I feel like you have a gap in your education.
You're spending that money for your military imperialism. Not because you're generous. And because you're doing this anyways, we were smart about it and opted to spend our money in a better education and health care system. There is nothing to be proud of. You're being taken advantage of.
