Yeah, you're going to find that most people are very much biased against enabling a violent coup on the government that is being really good to them. A coup that, if successful, has the potential to endanger their entire business, their wealth, and possibly their lives.
BTW, "you're biased" is not, in and of itself, a reason to entirely shut down an argument as invalid.
- roenxi 6y agoThe bias isn't in the response, it is in the faulty interpretation: A coup that, if successful, has the potential to endanger their entire business, their wealth, and possibly their lives. Not only was this an unsupported at the time, but unless something really flashy happens it is only going to become more obviously wrong. 1 violent riot in 2021 compares not so badly to the widespread peaceful arson and looting in 2020 that was brushed off as routine political expression. > BTW, "you're biased" is not, in and of itself, a reason to entirely shut down an argument as invalid. No argument on that particular point, but it is a decent reason not to try and use a certain infrastructure provider for communication tools or artistic content. Most people are looking for a dumb pipe when they pick an infrastructure provider, not a back-seat moderator with a twitchy trigger finger.
