I mean if you post online something like “Hey who wants to join my armed revolution?” then you’re gonna get the feds on you and your organization’s cover is going to get blown. If somebody does get caught and their connections can be traced back to a website or other community, then the unradicalized masses will see that website/community as a breeding ground for violence and either that website/community or the government will make the website/community clamp down and/or give up IDs of other members. Especially in an era where data is a commodity and the psychopathic tyrants are unmoved by peaceful protest, effective rebel cell formation and action has to be cloak and dagger and requires time to form an armed militia with a clear objective and a strong majority of the populace would need to sympathize. Definitely don’t abide this info and form a rebel cell in real life, since that would be illegal and therefore bad; if you were a fictional character in the fictional Star Wars universe, for example, then go ahead.

- Comment on The road they drove to dump this trash literally takes to the landfill 2 weeks ago:
Maybe they got to the dump and there was a big sign and chain across the dump saying “Closed on Thanksgiving” and they had never heard of a dump closed on Thanksgiving before and with tears in their eyes they drove off into the sunset looking for another place to put the garbage. They didn’t find one. ‘Til they came to a side road and off the side of the side road there was another fifteen foot cliff and at the bottom of the cliff was another pile of garbage. And they decided that one big pile is better than two little piles and rather than bring that one up they decided to throw theirs down.

Many historians believe the 15th POTUS, James Buchanan, was gay and closeted. Openly gay Pete Buttigieg (D) has ran for president within recent years but ultimately did not win his party’s nomination.
However, there are two determining factors for a more modern day scenario:
-
While not categorically disqualifying on any legal level, would a lack of heteronormativity be rejected by the majority of voters (as processed through the Electoral College)? Bigotry unfortunately seems to be the winning method.
-
Will there even be a specter of fair and free elections for POTUS in the future? (Doubtful)

- Comment on Marvel Officially Retitles Thunderbolts as The New Avengers 3 weeks ago:
Yeah, with the asterisk in the title and the discussion about it, I would think that this was the marketing plan from the start. The movie’s performance may have affected when exactly they decided to pull the trigger on the rebrand though.
- Comment on fellow patriots 3 weeks ago:
IIRC, the Death Star was a secret to everyone outside of the Empire until Rogue One, which took place only a couple of days before it was blown up in A New Hope. In the Imperial meeting scene of A New Hope, Tarkin says “Fear will keep the local systems in line. Fear of this battle station,” which implies the threat of the Death Star is meant to be widely known after its public demonstration on Alderaan; public sentiment became unnecessary once they could hold a gun to the head of every possible dissident as well as to their world. I don’t see how this meme could take place after A New Hope since the destruction of both Alderaan and the Death Star would be widely known and verifiable by that point.

The hands don’t seem off to me, especially if the model has done a lot of hand-on labor. The thing that sticks out to me as an indicator of this being not AI generated is the markings on the strand board to the right of the model’s belt; I don’t think an AI would take into consideration the product info marked onto raw material, let alone be able to place three squares of that info in line. If we could find actual raw strand board with those specific product markings, especially one sold by Home Depot, that would suggest it to be an actual photograph. Identifying the model in the photo and finding photos of him outside of Home Depot’s promo shots would also indicate it’s a photo. In either case of it being a photo or AI-gen, the marketing team still could have done some photoshopping as they see fit.

This is from the subreddit mods’ rules. I don’t see it necessarily implying OP to be in the wrong or in the right. It really just implies those damn corporate admins are at fault. OP could just want a platform which doesn’t censor a discussion on subject matter alone.

- Comment on How to get a package to the right owner? 4 weeks ago:
If the address is incorrect, you could try finding the correct address and deliver it yourself, or maybe contact the post office local to that area to arrange a delivery of sorts?
I once got an Amazon package addressed to the previous resident of my apartment, and I was expecting packages of my own at the time so I opened it without reading the name of the intended recipient. Realizing it wasn’t mine, I was able to locate the intended recipient on LinkedIn and found her workplace, which happened to be nearby. I asked for her at the workplace’s front desk (without realizing that I was talking to her) and she said to deliver any other packages meant for her to that workplace. With mail (in the US, at least), you can write “Not at this address” on the envelope and mail it and it should find its way to the intended recipient.

Actually, this rudimentary “matchmaker” site worked by having people select their gender, the gender(s) they want their partner to be, their age range, and the age range they want their partner to be in. I then made myself the match for each person in the cross-section of people who met my criteria and people whose criteria I met*, and everybody else was more happily matched with the bagel. Everyone knew it was in jest overall.
*footnote: In order the favor the bagel, if someone selected multiple gender options for them to match with, the website selected the bagel for the match even if one of those genders were my own. The bagel had also previously been established as non-binary (they/them/theirs), for the record.
