The first point in the comic is certainly valid, giving the technical literacy of many people.

In my case, it wasn't my choice. :(

I'm going to stand my ground on the matter of broad generalizations being counter productive and often tribalistic in nature.

But your point is taken.

The problem when you bash millions of people is that your claims against the group becomes untrue very quickly. The Christians in my neck of the woods are generally supportive of women who want to get abortions. Maybe you believe that caveat is automatically implied, but I didn't catch that from my reading of your comment.

I'm not saying there aren't too many who oppose abortion on religious grounds, but I think the bigger problem in society right now is people who have generalized opinions about people due to some (usually intrinsic) group they belong to.

I'm not with my government on a lot of things they do. I want the same data rights and restrictions to apply to all companies that host people's personal information.

But what's this about Impressive tech? Tiktoc? First that's laughable, even more laughable is how you phrase is as if anyone would give a fuck if another country had some better tech. Sounds like you are projecting your own insecurities.

Any comment in regards to better personal budgeting gets down votes and the typical "avocado toast" response.

True, though home property taxes can grow surprisingly quickly and catch people off guard.

On Lemmy financially irresponsible people don't exist, and when making any statement to the contrary, all they can hear is "blah blah blah avocado toast".
