"Normal" is a fluid term. It changes based on what the majority thinks. At some point slavery was normal and a part of life. But we as a society decided that we should move away from oppressive systems that marginalize and discriminate.

So, while it's true that in many cultures "entrenched gender roles" are considered normal, that doesn't mean certain people aren't suffering from it. In fact, it doesn't require much debate to acknowledge that in a system where there’s a power imbalance (in other words, inequality), there will inevitably be an oppressed group, and therefore, suffering.

As long as you consider "reducing the amount of suffering" an "absolute good/right", then abolishing entrenched gender roles is an absolute good. Promoting gender equality doesn't mean that women are prohibited from going to the kitchen and men must be stay-at-home dads. It simply ensures that these roles are a matter of personal choice rather than societal imposition.

Moreover, gender equality is not solely a liberal value; it has been promoted in various ideologies, including socialist and communist systems. While the practical implementation has varied, these systems have often supported the idea of gender equality alongside broader social reforms.

Capitalism may not be the problem, but "country being ruled by capitalism" definitely is.

They attempted to write "Loiters* will be shot* on sight".

It's ok, I was mentally prepared to find out that it, of course, exists.

I think you are projecting, not everything tentacle is hentai. With all the (often fucked up) diversity of hentai, ear sex isn't included.

... I hope...

I think their point is that people don't actually buy Apple products for privacy and therefore it's not "the main selling point".

I mean, if you log in to Facebook at all, whatever MacOS collects is a drop in a bucket in comparison.

I didn't say it's perfect, but it's not terrible. And I think that page is mostly about Apple services, like iCloud and stuff, not MacOS specifically. It's not necessary to use the services.

Ubuntu has Snap and ads and stuff, but I thought Manjaro was considered good. What's wrong with it? It's supposed to be Arch based.

Privacy and data collection-wise MacOS is fine. It's their main selling point. Doesn't even force updates on you. I know it's a low bar, but damn Windows bar is at the floor at this point.

Can somebody explain why this was removed? It didn't break any rules, "Russian cope" isn't prohibited by the rules. Just trying to understand the logic. How does deleting controversial opinions (that aren't hate speech or call for violence) help anyone?

Side note, I just realized that Rule 5. says "no politics". How is this even possible? 80% of content here is politics in some shape or form, just like this post.
