They really should be called genres or noun class as outside of Europe they really aren't tied to gender and can have way more different cases than just two or three.

The problem with the word woke is that it was specifically about racial inequality and then the right made it synonymous with everything they hate about lgbtq people. White Christian Nationalism is the real mind virus.

I hate simple 1 dimensional representations of politics. I'm not a conservative, and as a Mutualist, I also am not a Liberal.

That's what I hope Flatpaks can change. Heck, maybe even wasm based applications.

I'd argue the sandboxing you get from xdg desktop portals in applications installed from Flatpak and Snap is a lot better than windows giving full system access to an application when it asks. Keeping a program's access domain specific is a lot better security than Mac OS or Windows. Not to mention the security improvements from Wayland paired with Pipewire preventing applications access to things like the desktop, clipboard, and audio without explicit permission. And I haven't even mentioned SELinux yet. In an office setting you could certainly lock down a system pretty easily and prevent things like fishing attacks and even spear fishing. Windows and Mac OS are inherently security through obscurity because they are proprietary and rely on hackers to not know quite how they work, but Linux is resilient because it has more eyes on it and because distributions can modify the kernel specifically for added security like with the SELinux patches.

Half of my apps are side-loaded including the one I'm typing this on.

Got to love Apple for choosing to go with the Metal api over Vulkan.

There are a select few times that Dark Reader makes a button or text invisible and I have to turn it off and I'm reminded of how terribly bright websites normally are. Dark Reader creates a vastly improved website viewing experience.

When does it stop being a vibrator and start being a reciporcating saw?

That one is especially messed up with the ownership controversy between Samsung Electronics and Samsung Engineering.

I'd argue Spain showcases a pretty good path towards a Mutualist economy with the way their laws are set up that incentivized worker cooperatives to form and become a major part of their economy compared to "traditional" corporations. I tend more economicly Anarchist compared to a full dismantle of the state in the sense that I would be mostly fine with everything pretty much the same, but with economic law set up to incentivize cooperatives and make it illegal to sell another's labor.

I'd prefer a Mutualist or Syndicalist system over a Marxist one. The idea of "self exploitation" doesn't really make sense to me for most parts of the economy. Giving people direct ownership of their labour and making it illegal to sell that labour prevents the consolidation of capital while also preventing authoritarian overreach by a centralized system.
