The average Lemmy user knows fuck all about, security, privacy, operating systems, act like they are unique, and are inclusive despite wanting more people to understand more about the way they see things.
Libertarianism and anarchism aren't cool and don't work.
You are a part of the problem if you hate Nintendo but think you are helping the developer by pirating their games.
You are an even bigger problem to bringing more people to your way of thinking if you are constantly negative about those people buying something they like just because you wouldn't.
Thinking you are alternative because everything you think is mainstream makes you mainstream.
Your choice of FOSS and OS doesn't make that product good by design. Just because you can't operate and OS doesn't make that OS bad.
I thought that was just common sense for anyone with 2 working neurons.
