so you can sue people or companies that may contribute to poor mental health outcomes?

(also sorry you got robbed, that sucks)

but I think it’s dismissive to just say “classical liberal” is a “code word”. Some former liberals that grifted used the phrase, but others like Justin Amash, who isn’t some sort of right wing populist, which is what the grifters are. You mentioning this on Hard Fork reads as cynical imo

On the episode, you both certainly wanted to make sure it was viewed as a nefarious technology and company in a very black and white way, which is ignoring vital civil rights communications. Separately, I’m happy you advocate e2e encryption and cover it.

I just flipped on a NYT podcast I hadn’t listened to before for the first time, like many others. I don’t think it should be expected we all read everything from your past for you to describe the main subject you’re speaking of more thoughtfully and fully.

It’s not a good look when you start saying things like “YOU DONT EVEN KNOW SUNNY DAY REAL ESTATE” to a zoomer.

It won’t go well. My niece was trying to tell me what emo was and she tried to correct me when I explained my perspective and I was taken aback.

I spent my teenage years playing in bands (punk, emo, indie, and hardcore) and booking DIY shows.

There are better products than Telegram, and your points on e2e is correct. The design of Telegram, even their secret chat encryption, leaves standards needlessly.

It’s disappointing that you and @kevinroose paint unwatched DMs as only for “terrorist organizations, drug traffickers, and extremist groups like neonazis”. You don’t seem to mention ethical uses in certain areas. Hong Kong, Belarus, Iran, Ukraine, etc have all benefited from this.
