Me, yesterday: “I shouldn’t put that booklet with the discounts to show at the checkout in the back pocket of my jeans, it’ll fall out and I’ll be in trouble.”

Me: do it anyway.

Me, at the checkout: “Fuck, I lost the booklet”

They don’t have to give money to receive it back. They just keep it, while still having tourists (cf France).

I like this image. I’m a citizen of a small monarchy, and I used to be a staunch republican (in the European sense). I’m still not a big fan of the monarchy, but it’s a way to help conservatives feel secure while being, in fine, more open than the neighboring republics. But we don’t have a House of Lords or any nobility beside the reigning immediate family, so that helps accepting the monarchy.

In France for example, there is a transition period between 16 and 18 were teenagers are sexually adults, but if actual adults have sex with them it’s still considered like a kind of rape, even if the teenager is willing (I’m simplifying a lot). Verify the details of your countrie’s laws.

C’est la voie.

Not really. Anarchists generally recognize the authority of specialists (scientists, doctors, …), they just refute them the right to impose their ideas on individual. It’s a little stretch, but officers in an anarchist army would be like specialists, whose authority is not imposed, but freely recognized.

Pe is the true way.

“Companion softwares” for hardware are the only thing that still makes me use my Windows VM. In my case it’s my children’s educative computers which need a real computer to add content.

Oh I know more or less how the American law works. But I think it’s a bad one, that’s all.

I’m French, and in France hate speech is illegal. Negation of crimes against humanity is illegal. Defamation is illegal. And you know what? France is still a free country. Freer even maybe, as our other freedoms and rights (like our rights to live peacefully) are more protected.

I disagree. Free speech should have limits, like every other freedom, because freedoms oppose each others. Insults, defamation, threats, calls for hatred, lies, … shouldn’t be covered by free speech.

Thank you for your answer.

Please ignore me if you think my question is uncalled-for, but your answer surprises me. I get agnosticism and atheism from a philosophical point of view, even if philosophically I stand in the theist side. I get the feeling of disgust when one studies history and actuality of religions, even if I think it’s kind of a limited, one-sided view. But disgust for the mere idea of the existence of God seems… a bit extreme. What did you mean?

Yeah I like him, even if he had bad stances on some subjects (like Israel or abortion). He’s too much on the evangelical side to me, even if he was not an actual evangelical. But was right on sooooo much subjects!

I don’t think atheism is central to anarchism. Opposition to religion (in its institutional and hierarchical form) is, but not belief in a higher being per se.

Anarchism can make Christianity non-authoritarian, and Christianity can teach anarchism how to be spiritual. Of course nor anarchism nor Christianity need each other, but I like how they complete each other.

Anarchism should be communism + Christianity.

Proton has not gone rogue.

Like all others, as it’s a legal obligation. But they can’t give a lot more, as the mail themselves are encrypted.

Your worth squares are that full, and always were.

Oh yes,.and it works quite well. They even had Firefox for a few months.
