I don't try and push my weird opinions on my wife lmao. She knows how I feel and understands and does what she wants and that's okay. My advice is to communicate and respect each other even if you don't agree and don't be a controlling dork.
weird opinions?
on the contrary, I think it's a weird opinion to think that uploading personal photos and videos on surveillance capitalisme hubs is no big deal. It's a weird opinion to think that you've got nothing to hide from perverted companies and states.
I think you missed the point.
no, I see your point but you could have wrote: I don't try and push my opinions
you wrote "weird opinions" and in the context of this thread (see the op 👆), what do you think "my weird opinions" means?
From the perspective of our partners, privacy is often a "weird opinion". If you can't accept that it is a fringe area of interest in society then you are almost certainly isolated or living in a bubble.
it's weird to call something weird just because you think that "the society" thinks it's weird
have a weird sunday
so u think that whenever u do anything suddenly the big surveillance has a profile of you and theyre gonna kill you or smth. what do you think thats gonna happen.
is this irrational fear of some phantom big government coming after you, not weird?
u also just proved ur weird by getting so defensive about this. the goverment doesnt want ur number bro nobody does
no, I don't think that.
can you please show me where I wrote that
The straw-iest strawman argument that ever straw'd.
