First of all, firefox is politically active and on the correct side too. Fighting for equality, against discrimination and for a fairer world for us all is the only cause that actually makes sense atm imo.

I‘m not totally sure if I like the fact that they don’t actively talk about their „new“ focus more but I‘m not actively researching that either, but I digress.

Besides that, they‘re asking to amplify factual voices (instead of the extremes) which I find baffling that someone has to actually suggest this. People thinking any other way would make sence are definitely high on something.

Fighting for equity, as a man who's supposed to be at the bottom of the hierarchy, I spit on it.

Besides that, they‘re asking to amplify factual voices (instead of the extremes) which I find baffling that someone has to actually suggest this.

Because the actual definition of factual and their definition of factual differs. When they say factual voices, they mean, voices which they like.

Somewhat similar to feminists, when they say they just want equality (and I am ok with equality) they don't want equality, they want equity. They want quotas. Their definition of feminism and my definition of feminism varies. And people who say they want factual discourse have utterly disqualified themselves from saying that again, they just want their opposition to be censored. The last few years have proven that

I‘m sorry but I don’t get what you’re implying. The only thing I get is the feeling of mysogynism.

Nobody cares about quotas, what some fictional screaming lesbians are doing to poor incels out there. Thats not real, man.

The rich are fucking us, not women. Don’t let yourself be made into their tool.

mysogynism.

if fighting for equality and fighting against equity is misogynistic, I am one.

The rich are fucking us, not women. Don’t let yourself be made into their tool.

The rich probably get a better deal out of everything and I don't hate women, I love em lol. I am not a tool of anyone.

If by equity, you mean this:

Equality means everyone is treated the same exact way, regardless of differences. Equity means everyone is provided with what they need to succeed.

then you are much worse than that.

I don’t even know what you meant with the second sentence but right now you seem to be making it worse. Have you maybe been told what to think?
