I think you underestimate how many people might not have a complete understanding of consent, and just dismissing it outright like this isn't.. as productive as you might think it is
You say that, but there is a historical basis to making a point out of it
For example, martial rape wasn't considered rape or even sexual assault for a long time. And many people might also take someone not saying no as implicit consent, which is not necessarily the case
It can be a bit more nuanced than it may initially seem, in the sense that like, there can be different understandings of consent
Buuuut of course I don't know the context of your conversation
That's fair, but unless what you do requires windows in some way (like, say, Photoshop), Linux tends to be better for productivity as well, if you learn it
But of course, I understand that it takes some upfront work and learning to change your workflow, so I don't blame people for not doing it
Yes, I mean, one is (ideally) about two (or more) people enjoying time they have together in an intimate way, the other is about hurting one another maliciously. I certainly prefer one of these things to be more prominent than the other
There is a discussion to be had about stuff like objectification and porn that doesn't depict people like, consenting, and such, but at least in an ideal I'd much rather have media that focuses on pleasure and love than hate and suffering
Okay, you edited your comment, so then let me add another one
The US and Norway have roughly equivalent GDP per capita. Norway is also a very rugged country with tons of mountainous terrain. It's pretty much the worst case scenario for land infrastructure development. It having a small population also makes it a greater challenge for finding workers. More people is better economically speaking
I mean, I do think that hate speech and extremism such as white supremacism should not be allowed, yes. They do not act in good faith, why should we extend our good faith to them?
But besides, that is slightly beside the point I was making. What I was trying to point out is that they do not embarrass themselves to the target demographic
As you grow you will keep appreciating the growing amounts of personal development
Eventually you think back to when you were worried about turning 25 and you'll think "why would I ever wanna be 25 again? I had so much less knowledge and experience back then"
Great good faith response to my comment, for sure
