By this standard, Windows isn’t ready either. I use Mint, Windows and Mac interchangeably at work, and of the three, Windows is definitely the one with the most unpleasant surprises: computer slowing down for no apparent reason, printers disappearing, updates forcing you to reboot in the middle of something…
Mac is fantastic if you don’t mind feeling like your computer doesn’t belong to you.

This should show Americans how billionaires perceive “peaceful protests”.
I don’t think it’s a distraction, Trump’s been talking about tariffs since he took office. And besides it seems clear he doesn’t give two shits about what people say.
Trump and co have 2 years (until the midterms) to bankrupt the US, let Bezos, Musk and Thiel buy whatever is left that can turn a profit (energy, utilities, etc.) and put loyalists in charge of the election in key states.
See USSR in the 90s.
Vote. In every election. In the primaries. The city you live in. The school council. And convince everyone you know to vote, too. Protest. Strike. Make people you know angry about what’s happening so they are motivated to stir shit up. You still can change things, but you are right: you can’t do it alone. So find as many people you can who can do it with you. Time is running out.
Yeah but remember, ACAB /s
Not a lawyer, but court orders are ultimately enforced by the DOJ. So yeah…
People like judge Jackson are what the US need right now.
With this and DOGE it sure seems the US is slowly destroying itself from the inside, all to the benefit of Russia, China and a few rich guys
Yeah if they were a real party for the people they wouldn’t need to search too long.
They see it as a problem because it challenges how they see the world. They have a hard time adjusting to how society has evolved, so rather than trying to change their beliefs they use their power to force the world to conform to their views.
Also, they’re fascist assholes.
In 2024, “not a step backwards” = good news.
This is what happens when your government is transitioning from a democracy to a crime syndicate power structure. Corruption and privilege infiltrating all aspects of society at an accelerating rate.
cf. Russia in the 90s
And it’s surely the way Trump himself understands this. As we learned today, he keeps tabs on who’s on his side like the Mafia boss he is. The cities that dare ask him payment will be punished when he gets the occasion.
I’m not sure China is afraid of a revolution. See: Tiananmen square, and in 2024 they’ve got a surveillance system nobody can escape.
Well I guess that’ll teach me to try to have a rational and respectful discussion with a random stranger on the internet.
Calm down, smoke a bowl, read books on critical thinking and question the narrative even when if fits your worldview.
I like the example you chose because the facts reported support what I’m saying: eventually, if cops get too comfy planting evidence everywhere, someone down the line is going to notice and the judge will dismiss the case.
How is this related to the police planting evidence on suspects?
Those are two different problems.
Years and years of politicians moving the goalposts further right, letting the rich get richer, allowing more money into politics and disenfranching voters is not something you reverse in a single election, and it won’t change until ordinary people get into politics more and at every level.
But if you vote for Trump or abstain from voting, you’re encouraging it.
