  • Well.... What gives you the 'RIGHT' to tell them they don't have a 'right' to an opinion on the issue?? That's a very disingenuous comment made with a lot of immaturity, to just shut down a point you don't agree with...

    no one gives you, or I, or anyone, a ' RIGHT' to opinionate on anything, really.. it's just Human nature to have an opinion on things we know about, have experience with, educated ourselves on, or have seen first hand.. to say they do t have a ' right' to engage because you feel they are irrelevant, is selfish and dangerous rhetoric..

    You really don't have the 'Privilege' to deny anyone the reality of engaging in conversation and to share their opinions.. and regardless of where they live, how they live and what they do, you also do not have the personal 'privilege, to know every thing that this stranger knows, or has seen, or has experienced, to make the opinion....

    It's a very nuanced issue and to shut someone down because you don't think they have a 'right' to state their opinions, or engage with conversations. Do you also passionately advocate for America's 1st amendment 'rights'? You're on a post about an American issue, and asking someone who is not American what 'right' they have to engage, so I have to assume you are American and do support the constitution... but just because you or I, are American, that does not mean non Americans can't comment or opinionate on issues we have.. the 'right' to engage should not be conflated with real 'rights' and used as a weapon to silence someone you disagree with....

  • That to me seems like it would turn it to vigilantism fast, and that's exactly what maga wants though... thats why they walk around with their open carry, intimidate people they don't THINK belong and feel like a slippery slope...

  • I'm chrome.. sadly.. but only on my phone cause it's through boost mobile and it's moto G stylus phone.. so I am lucky android stuff even work on it.. but it's still kinda of sketchy and I was not gonna be surprised if it was true QR codes were accessing my data because of the phone type I use

  • As .much as I want to agree with this..I go back to the opiates crisis we had... they followed Purdue quite religiously over kick backs for prescribing opiates while knowing the lie Purdue and it's family were selling.... I really can't imagine this will be much different... only a few doctors will stand against it this time, while many more will enjoy the kick back until public out cry becomes too much... which will take years and multiple deaths..

  • Go to their profile and look at what they engage with.. it was pretty to find

  • That is good to know. I felt like crap when my friend told me that the using most QR codes weren't safe to use as they give the host access to some of your phones data and I felt dumb for not knowing..

  • Yeah... Miss boost for reddit...

    Excited it's coming out for Lemmy though. Right now I am on liftoff and it works well though

  • Oh so much this!!! I hate having to use their QR codes. I was told that using most new QR through our phones give these sites using them, access to our recent photos on the camera app.. I have a two year old I don't want people looking at whom I don't know...

  • Oh I feel this in my soul. I am pregnant and have a two year old.. I was and am a huge customer of pampers (and enfamil formula for when my two year old was little) the apps have kick backs... and against my better judgement z I broke down and got these apps for the kick back.... I regret it.. my email is overwhelmed with spam suddenly... an email I worked hard to get all the spam out of a few months ago.. I am also getting random calls and voicemails for services I would never use. It's so frustrating.. I just wanted to the points for the products I normally buy to save a few pennies... but can't do it with out my data being harvested and being spammed with crap

  • Dude same here for the Reddit prompt ! I browse incognito without a profile just to see some headlines... and every ten minutes or if I got to a risque sub, it will stop me and ask for the app download or if I want to stay on the browser..... if I wanted the app.. I would have gotten it.. I am on the browser for a reason...

  • What a strange person.... is there anyone else we could talk too?? I am King, ya know!

  • Hey buddy!! Only if you do it for me!!!!!

  • I'm sorry but, It really feels awful reading this comment, downplaying the horrific pain a torture these monkeys went through just to have some failed technology that did nothing for them.. we did not even get good results from the test because a majority of the monkeys died from their complications... that's is awful... most animals when ethical implications are considered for testing, don't end up with majority of the subjects dying from terrible, preventable outcomes....

  • I agree!! It's literally a real life south park episode of what's better .. a turd sandwich or a giant douch

    Edit: Wow some petty people, who can't take a lighthearted joke in dark times.. I thought users were overreacting saying Lemmy is becoming Reddit... but here is the proof...

    Both candidates and sides suck! No real leader has emerged and is ready to lead the country to greatness... do please tell me why my joke is sooo offensively off base it deserves mass downvotes?
