People objecting to UBI 'cuz Elon Musk might get a couple extra grand a month. 😱
This is something that really bothers me in so much talk about benefits including from some policy wonks.
Not everyone who is given something from the state is Oliver Twist, nor should they be.
The state should provide help to all sorts of people in different circs, not just gruel for the needy

Sorry, no, Motability was not about 'helping the most vulnerable' - it was about providing people who need modified vehicles modified vehicles!

Often the only defense when Imperium and Chaos aggressors try to attack Oryx and its people.
While not as resilient as their fellows in the Iron Guard, you'll always seem Oryx Militia holding the line when its needed

The not so silent part of things being “left/right” coded to *these* people is actually:

Cutting-edge research shows language is not the same as intelligence. The entire AI bubble is built on ignoring it.

Corporations are relying on shame to stop folks from fighting to keep porn around. An amazing way to fight against this stuff is to simply not be ashamed of sex and sexuality; even if you think some of it is "cringe". You'll do yourself a favor by eliminating your shame about sex.
When you fight censorship, you're also fighting for things you might not exactly like and it's something you gotta get comfortable with. I promise you, the fetish game you turn your nose up at is NOT YOUR ENEMY. You must think of the bigger picture, you must not fall for the bait.
