the ability to have your message reach people far away, is extremely powerful

and not in the sense of some big soapbox

IRC with tor is a good solution for the privacy-minded

just reaching individuals I mean

I don't think its privacy that is desired as much as independence

irc gives both

I don't think anyone would care too much if random people read this chat, but it being shut down or curtailed is different

IRC existed for years, and its great, but its obvious from Discord's success

that convenience is very, very important

Discord has definite advantages in user friendliness and the ability to share images and voice chat easily is very nice

its a really big deal I think

this thing is bigger than videogames

i wonder if its possible to make an irc client with at least the image sharing if not voip

mumble always exists for voip as a decentralized open source solution

you probably could, but it would be a mess

probably, would be tough for people on older clients

last time the irc protocol was updated was 2000 it seems

zeronet with tor or at least vpn is a good option

i've used it it works good. they have discord/chan type chat rooms in there. you can make anything.

man the fucking BBC

>accidentally

if you don't use tor or vpn though it's very poor for privacy. everything you do is logged, which is how the whole things works. it's like a blockchain.

train hitting CNN reporter, come on

its so obvious

the motivation, the mentality

what they want you to think and feel

so if the CNN symbol is a reporter

is the train literally Trump?

i was suprised he retweeted posobiec last night, with a quote that could be taken different ways... great trolling

even with tor or vpn that would not be private, blockchains are public and anonymous

i thought that was talking about the posobiec tweet when i read the headline

literal hatefacts

this is not a good road to go down

never be defensive

its not a bad idea to highlight "hypocrisy" here and there

but this is generally done by the losing side, licking their wounds

if the tone was more "genuine"

like "I wish the media had put as much attention on Chicago as Charlotesville, Black Lives Matter!"
