It's going to be a really shit 4 years. There could be a point of no return anytime along that based on a variety of issues, but IMO the most likely point of no return is if/when Trump moves to take a third term in '28. If that happens it's clearly dead no hope.

For a first step you can get away with just add, commit, push, and pull. Maybe reset, but tbh using git like svn at first is fine.

Next branch, checkout and merge. At this point show, log, bisect and blame also start to be useful.

I'm not a fan of stash, and would instead recommend reflog and cherry-pick as the first two advanced commands to learn. Then rebase and squash.

In fact we do know that there's someone else in the room - otherwise who is the old man talking to?

For people organizing protests and taking part in them, Maybe to Likely.

For people just posting things online, Very unlikely. They'll have their hands full with all the immigrants and protesters first, and there's far too many people who have said something leftist online.

Yeah, realized halfway through writing that I was butchering his voice/tone too, but the sentiment is good.

I would buy Bitcoin or a more stable foreign currency.

Because it's buried in that Wikipedia article:

Not a paradox. Tolerance is better viewed as a social contract - it's not owed to those who don't practice it themselves.

You're wilfully misinterpreting me.

How am I oppressing these people?

Asexual people can and do still use porn for sexual gratification. Just like how some Asexual people still have sex.

Hm, does that argument ring hollow to you? Maybe because you were trying to make a point about the group and not every individual in it?

I'm speaking from my own experience which has been that in 6/6 cases when I've learned that someone was a furry the conversation quickly turned towards the topic of furry porn, which I did not want to discuss.

From Wikipedia:

Another survey at a furry convention in 2013 found that 96.3% of male furry respondents reported viewing furry pornography, compared with 78.3% of females.

I don't have an issue with gay people. I don't have an issue with anybody existing or being who they are. I have an issue with repeatedly learning sexual things I didn't want to know about people, which has happened multiple times with furries specifically. Maybe I've been unlucky or something, but my experience has been that furries far more than other groups overshare and don't respect reasonable boundaries around this.
