@MalReynolds Are you saying F-Droid, TOR, Tails or Let's Encrypt supported Trump? I'd like to read more about that.
How could you read it that way ? I'm saying eventually they were going to conflict with the interests of the US (oligarchs and techbros) and lose funding. Shocker, it happened under cheeto.
@MalReynolds Leopards eating faces implies that they voted for the Leopards. But ok, issue clarified, all good.
Yeah, I have a broader view of the phrase, which includes complacency (not actively working at alternatives) as well as just voting, seems most agree with you.
Having a broader view of a phrase just means you didn't understand the phrase. It's okay to admit that.
