Why? Instead of attacking the person making an argument, why not attack the argument directly?

Why attack the uneducated dipshits stating bullshit as if it were fact? YMBNH– Earth that is. That's part of how we got here, by which I mean, another globally rising ride of fascism.

Speaking of rising tides, you know what's spooky to see, even though it's not surprising? How little most people care for their children, and their children's children, as evinced by their unwillingness to allow positive changes to occur because they might lose their trivial privilege.

It's never been a secret, they've been telling us they want to do all this stuff for decades. Literally for my whole life they have been saying they want to end social aid programs and reduce the size of the government and let businesses perform functions for profit, they wanted to end birthright citizenship, they wanted to make America white again... Most people have just been in denial about it, and what it means.

I doubt Christopher Columbus was a saint as all people have flaws but he did have a mission and he wasn't above taking advantage of natives in the Americas to get done what he set out to do. That hardly makes him a "Hitler grade" SOB

True, he was more of a Captain Cook, as he was a slaver and a rapist.

What sense does it make to pump money into those if nobody is interested in them?

That's some clown-ass clown shit. People were interested in them, but they were cancelled, they didn't get cancelled because people lost interest. You will make any shitty excuse for shitty behavior because you're a shitty person who wants to live in a shitty country.

In other words, the proper response is to do nothing different.

Correct.

Having hissy fits about Kennedy and Noem is also counter-indicated.

Kennedy and Noem are disruptive. You say you want nothing different. Your description of a response to this disruption as a "hissy fit" runs counter to your narrative. Pick one or the other going forwards if you want to be taken seriously, thanks.

That does a lot, and you should do it. But it doesn't do it all.

You can do an ad filtering web proxy with SQUID that can do the rest of it. In the past when I had a separate Linux-based firewall/server running nonstop, I set up such a proxy and used packet mangling to send the connections to the proxy without proxy configuration. If you wanted unfiltered internet, you connected to a proxy on another port. That way it got all the devices.

AFAIK to do this today meaningfully, since everything is encrypted, you have to install a certificate for the proxy on the browser? Haven't looked into it since I don't care any more, I use noscript and ublock origin together on Firefox, and the only "server" I have running nonstop is just an AP with the transmission daemon and a 512GB SATA SSD in a USB3 adapter I got for about tree-fiddy on aliexpress.

are you messing around with your car when you should be focusing on your son?

I shudder to think of what happens when you need to charge your phone from a power bank. Do you drop everything you're holding and shudder uncontrollably at the agonizing effort of installing a plug into a receptacle?
