Hell yeah I would if the same situation happens in my own country.

Typically, you should be protecting yourself, then people you are close with, before you start protecting strangers. Also even if democrats are elected, there's nothing stopping people from protesting about US supporting Israel anyways. Now do you see a flaw in your logic?

So is it worth it to sacrifice the wellbeing of minorities in america just to prove this point?

are they banning mentions of any other social media? Since there's a lot of names lemmy instances can go by.

I remember to swear by megaupload because all the other upload sites uses extremely sketchy ads and allow the fake download buttons.

Now Jdownloader is the only way for me to download non-torrents

the way we share payment info to sites is so backwards is the reason despite all the problems paypal had, it still provide a lot of value.

compared to legal sites stealing your personal data after telling you (it's buried among the 100+ pages TOS you agreed to)

it can work if everyone does it. Unfortunately we can't even do a boycott on a product properly so no chance for that to happen.

yup it applies only to the privileged class, and of course only people in that class would think that is the general experience.

even if it's not. There's just a severe lack of thinking skills here. What do they think happens to the pirate copies people already downloaded will happen when drm is added to the store version? There's a reason we keep saying DRM only punish legitimate customers.

Clearly these kind of people have relinquished their ability to think and let ads do the thinking for them.

Consider so many people still use X, never underestimate how much self inflicted pain a user is willing to endure over changing their lifestyle.
